Take-Two Interactive Software’s “Manhunt 2″ Coming Soon
“Manhunt 2″, a brutally violent video game that was effectively banned in the United States, has risen from the grave in a modified form and will go on sale for Halloween, its publisher said on Friday. Take-Two Interactive Software Inc said a new version of the game, which features an insane asylum escapee killing enemies in gruesome ways, had won a “Mature” rating from the U.S. Entertainment Software Ratings Board, meaning it is meant for players aged 17 and over.
The ratings board had previously slapped an “Adults Only” rating on the game. While its decisions carry no legal weight, Microsoft Corp, Sony Corp and Nintendo Co Ltd do not allow such titles on their game consoles.
It was the second bit of good news this week for Take-Two after the strong debut of its spooky underwater shooting game “BioShock,” and the company’s shares rose as much as 3.3 percent.
