If you thought
Manhunt 2 had reached the pinnacle of mature content in video games, you better guess again. The controversy-garnering title will be
re-released on Direct2Drive next week for $29.99 -- only this time around, it's packing an AO rating. As those who lived through Mahuntgate surely remember, that was planned to be the original rating for the game, before
the ESRB rolled up, and was all like "
what? You want to stick shards of glass into another man's ear? No.
No, sir."
Rockstar has remained mum about what the new rating will entail, but our guess is that it will incorporate more graphic forms of violence, and perhaps a few extra
dirty words. We've contacted Rockstar to get more specific details on the mature-r content, and to find out when we can expect the Early Childhood version of the game to hit store shelves.
