I'd like to apologise for my silly remarks.
Thank You - Purpleness
The difference between movies and video games is that in the latter, you are in control, and it is you, the player, who is committing the murders and such, that is why these censorship groups have a problem.
SAW's violence is more than acceptable by the board. There are many, many movies that do not get accepted for release.
Finally, Manhunt was a good game - it had an original story and it's violence was both shocking and fun. I look forward to the sequel, as I will be getting it, regardless of it's UK ban.
No, the first wasn't banned in the UK. It was banned in two countries, but out of Europe. The reason it received the ban anyway was because a British student was stabbed and killed in school, in the UK, with the killer saying that he was acting out Manhunt.
I wonder how we will get it?
We can't import it....
For starters, of course you can import it.Quote:

I'm not in the whole 'import' thing
I fouht PS2 and Wii discs were region locked?
But the BBFC itself published a study they had carried out that showed games actually have less influence on players than movies do on viewers.Quote:

It's ridiculous and a sure flaw in their reasoning to ban Manhunt.
Personally I don't even want to play the game, I'd just it rather not be dictated to me that I can't play it. Surely the public deserves freedom of choice?
