Manhunt 2 Temporarily Suspended

It would seem that the entire internet is ablaze with reports that Manhunt 2 is being placed on hold, thanks to AO (Adults Only) rating by the ESRB. Personally, I think it’s just an elaborate marketing scheme. No one really cared about this game coming out, and now everyone wants to see what all the fuss is. Brilliant move! Even if Walmart won’t sell it, I’m sure tons of mom and pop stores across the US will be more than happy to oblige. Of course, Take-Two stands behind the game, citing “freedom of creative expression,” but you gotta wonder how come other games like Mortal Kombat got past the ESRB so easily.
