lets hope it's better than the bore-fest that was Manhunt.

Regardless of whether you're interested in Manhunt 2 or not, it's nice to see Rockstar supporting the Wii. Hopefully this means we'll see Ping Pong and other titles, too.

Manhunt is gonna sell as well on the Wii as Viva Pinata is selling on Xbox 360. Two TOTALLY different demographics, know what I mean?

2kings: you're right. I've changed it. And you're right, Baby21, but those covers aren't more interesting than the teaser!

This may be the first Rockstar title I've been interested in since Table Tennis.

This is actually the preorder inlay art, meaning the art they put up at GameStop and the like to drive preorders. This most likely will not end up being the final box art.

Wow, that VO was terrible... and that was half of the magic in the first game. Hope it's just placeholder dialog.

Yeah I'm worried about the voice work. Brian Cox MADE Manhunt. The first kid's voice didn't sound believable, and then that last voice sounded like that one crazy "game" guy from Red Steel.

There is no last-gen or new/next-gen, and we can't even pinpoint the current gen, since a 6th generation system is the best seller in North America and a 7th generation system is the best seller everywhere else. Between the DS and the PS2 and the Wii we're kinda 6.5 gen right now.

You do know that the Wii is quite a bit more powerful than then PS2 and PSP, don't you? (Even the Gamecube was)

Why exactly would e.g physics engine need to be tuned down?

I don't think Baby21 knows what he/she is talking about.

How do you know they will "remove gore effects"? Wait and see.

The teaser was cool, imo. Can't wait to see what Manhunt 2 is like.

I would love to see if there will be gore effect on Wii. I might buy one.

But I still got funny feeling it won't.

If it doesn't, then I'd be surprised... :( So much for Nintendo trying to lose the kiddy-only image.

I know now what you're saying about the blood/gore.

But what about the physics/graphics? Did you mean in your original post that the Wii version's physics wouldn't be on par with the PS2/PSPs versions? Or did I misunderstand..

Thx :)

To be honest, I don't know from now...
After I realise tonight from Wiki site show that, Wii is almost twice fast than gamecube.

I always thought Wii is weaker than all and some old systems since I owned Wii and I thought my PS2 games shows better all my 5 wii games.
Maybe it is because I have heard some Wii games have 480p problem with my new HDTV.

What I don't get it is why two different studios with one same game title. Therefore it more likely won't be same gameplay. But question what the different?

Glad you found out :D And Gamecube was more powerful than the PS2. (Xbox > GC > PS2)

"I always thought Wii is weaker than all and some old systems since I owned Wii and I thought my PS2 games shows better all my 5 wii games."

LOL, it's true that the Wii launch games aren't exactly good looking. However, give it some time, and we'll hopefully see great things. Look at Resident Evil 4 for Gamecube -- that was amazing. (PS2's RE4 graphics weren't as good, and the cutscenes were pre-rendered on GC for the PS2 version)

Also, devs have had plenty of time to get used to the PS2's hardware. If you look at the new gameplay movies of God of War 2... I believe it looks better that most of the PS3 games ;-)

"Maybe it is because I have heard some Wii games have 480p problem with my new HDTV."

I think more to do with them being launch titles.. wait a bit for future wii games and the graphics should improve.

"What I don't get it is why two different studios with one same game title. Therefore it more likely won't be same gameplay. But question what the different?"

The studio working on the PS2/PSP version is a newly formed. The one working on the Wii version has been around for sometime, more experienced I believe.

*Hopefully* the difference will be that the Wii version's graphics are better than the PS2's.

We just have to wait and see ;)

The only thing that would make me nervous about putting out titles across those three platforms is, what if the wii version doesn't look signifigantly better? I know they are basically being built by two different groups, but you know there is going to be a comparison of the two console versions, and I wonder what the reaction will be if the wii doesn't show up the ps2 in every way possible? I'm hoping that the motion controls will work out for it, but they also have to differentiate it beyond that as well. I'm sure at least some of the art will have to be shared, unless they basically build two different games, and don't just port one to the other in some way.
Not saying that will happen, just something I thought about this morning.

I'm assuming that nobody is picking up on baby21's grammer and syntax? The same division of rockstar that made Canis Canem Edit is doing the Wii version are they not? Manhunt was such an excellent idea for a game, but was not without it's flaws. On a tangent, has anyone seen The running man? same idea. Anyway, What kind of fucking developer would remove the fucking gore from a gore-ridden game just because its on a fucking Nintendo console!? It's not fucking 1991 when nintendo's policy towards excessive gore, sexuality, swearing etc, resulted in a "sweaty" Mortal Kombat. I can't beleive that people on this blog would tolerate such stupidity.

There is no reason to tone this game down for the Wii. I would think they would Utilize the Parental Controls the Wii came with. I think the Wii added those to encourage more Mature games. I personally haven't bought a Nintendo System since the NES just because it didn't offer the type of games i liked but when the Wii came out, it was too revolutionary to pass up. I love it. Bring on the violence.

I can't see why they'd turn down any gore for the Wii version.. infact they should probably turn them up.. get a lot more press and sales that way.
