    It's banned in the UK (like its illegal) and it's rated Adults Only in the US, which means no retailer will sell it. It's the first ever console game to get an AO rating.

    Actually in the UK it's illegal to sell it but it's legal to own the game. Basically they won't sell it anywhere in the UK but if you import it and you own the game it's legal. Checkout the Wikipedia page, tells you about it on there.

    Typical. The governemnt blame video games for violence/killings.

    That's only phsycopaths that are mad that do that kinda stuff, then blame it on games to get out of it.

    Typical UK goverment.

    rockstar recently issued a statement saying that its only supposed to be for an adult audience (like a horror movie).

    The Guy Game was banned in 2004 because one of the girls exposing herself was underage.

    owels might as well buy a magic disc that plays NTSC on a PAL system and use other *sources* to get it on disc and start playing - Im sure you can get that :D

    Havent played manhunt before but why ban a game for due to excessive violence & blood - As said there are movies which are technically worser than games and im thinking why arent they banned

    Crappy government are retarded .. AO for a game - Not liike its pronos lol
