Manhunt is the game I least expected would turn up on the Wii. If you use the Wiimote like a weapon it's be cool as ****.

Why not make it for the PS3.

or the 360? no? forgotten about that one?

manhunt was ****. good for the first few levels then it just got boring.

if they have a whole truckload of brand new ways to kill that would be awesome. but i hate the wii.

so really i have contributed nothing to this thread except pessimism.

sorry

i dont get it i thought it was supposed to be on the psp, or at least thats what i read last time i checked

It will only come out on the psp after a real console has it, so it can be ported over and then suck like 98% of the psp games.

Wonder if you can club guys like baby seals using the wiimote. maybe the game will come with an interactive punching guy/bag and you have to pound on it to get the guy in the game to bite it.
Yeah, the first one was tough (i just have a real problem with stealth games for some reason) and i didn't get very far, so be interesting to see how this one turns out. Kinda funny it would come out on the wii, the console for everyone, or whatever the motto is.

It's to be released on PSP and PS2 at the same time as the Wii version.

Oh, don't get me wrong, i have nothing against sony. I have a ps2 and gamecube, and no xbox. i wanted the ps2 because of a better selection of games, so don't 'fanboy' me into a box.
Its true, most psp games suck ass. they usually get really bad reviews because they are just ports from other consoles and don't work on the psp. Its just recently that decent games are coming out for it, but what did that take? 2 years? pointing out sony's crap doesn't mean i'm all about MS, they have plenty of issues too, but we were talking about the PSP.

Well this is what Wii owners have wanted, a realistic adult rated FPS for a Nintendo console. I have a feeling that this game will end up on the 360 at some point and maybe on the PS3 as well, just have to wait and see how Manhunt 2 sells on the Wii

ozzythedog · 01-03-2007, 07:37 AM

im still surprised its coming out on the wii, maybe nintendos gonna play it right this time and get a lot more adult games so their console will appeal to even more people, and i agree with you jimbob(well actually im just hoping you are right) since the first manhunt was on xbox it would only make sense for it to be on 360, and also yeah a ps3 version seems inevitable also
