I see there is a lot of it in the new OPM, which I will purchase soon.

Not sure it is such a good idea. I liked the whole gruesome one-offness.

it was okay, I thought it would be like MGS + GTA with brutal violence. But you have to unlock missions to pick up more weapons if i remember correctly, haven't played it in ages.

still fun punching a wall, then hiding in a shadow, guy comes out looking for you and you creep up behind him a suffocate him with a plastic bag or cut his throat with a piece of broken glass.

In the United Kingdom the game was linked to the murder of Stefan Pakeerah, 14, by his friend Warren LeBlanc, 17. Giselle Pakeerah, the victim's mother, claimed[11] that LeBlanc had been 'obsessed' with the game after the former pleaded guilty in court. During the subsequent media circus, the game was removed from sale by some vendors, such as the UK and international branches of GAME and Dixons, leading to "significantly increased" demand[12] both from retailers and on internet auction sites. The police denied any such link between the game and the murder however,[13] citing drug-related robbery as the motive. The presiding judge also placed sole responsibility with LeBlanc in his summing up after awarding him a life sentence.[14] GAME have since returned Manhunt to their shelves, after it transpired that the murderer did not own or play the game. It was the victim who owned a copy of Manhunt, even though he was under 18.

The game got rather annoying in places, but it was atmospheric as fuck. Great ending, too.
