Discount Manhunt - Xbox

Customer Ratings:

Manhunt is one of the best games I have played since the original Resident Evil game on PS1. I am sure this game tops the list of every Parental Watchdog groups list of games to be avoided. It is ultra-violent with no redeeming social value of any kind, has absolutely no educational value, in short Manhunt is everything that I love about video games. I wanted to wait until I finished the game before reviewing it, as it's easy to tell that some of the reviews below are from folks who played a couple levels and then gave up. Sure, the gameplay may be a little repetitive, and if you want a fast paced, shoot-em' up, Manhunt may not be the game for you. But if you are up for being outgunned, out numbered, being hunted and stalked by a wide variety of sickos through multiple creepy levels, if you like the idea of creeping around, slicing and slashing your way through deserted ubran areas that are designed to give you nightmares, then Manhunt is the game for you. Sure, there may be some flaws to the game here and there, and you obviously have to suspend belief while playing, but this is one fun game that should give you hours of entertainment.

Simply put, if you are disturbed by high levels of violence, crude humor and severe adult dialogue, don't bother picking this one up.

Behind it all lies an intense game filled with edge-of-your-seat thrills and action. Action in a stealth game? Yeah, believe it or not.

Because of how careful you must be to not alert your foes, this may be one of the scariest games ever. While Splinter Cell is more sophisticated, this is pure urban madness. To stalk the city with all eyes looking for you is unnerving. To stand in the shadows as a dubious fellow walks by only a couple feet away sets all nerves a' blaze.

Some levels may take quite a long time to finish simply because you must...MUST...figure out the best way to eliminate (or possibly avoid) your enemies. Otherwise, you will wind up dead as a result of a stampede of racist thugs, lunatic weirdos or grizzled militants beating you to a pulp.

The language, imagery and the chill you get from the director speaking in your ear only adds to this marvelous trek into the human psyche. Enjoy yourself as you kill...or be killed.

There is a movement going on in the world of video gaming, those of us who absolutely cherish the 'Manhunt' title are doing whatever we can to convince Rockstar to make a sequel to this game!!! It's been out for a few years, and I know it was a hit when it first came out, so instead of wasting time with more dumb GTA titles, can we please get our sequel? There is numerous web-sites dedicated to this 'movement' , they talk about petitions, phone-calls, you name it, fans of this game are willing to do it. I believe one person went so far as to try and get to the head execs at Rockstar headquarters, but his message apparently fell on deaf ears.

Alot of fans feel the reason no sequel has been discussed is all the controversy that first appeared upon the games initial release. I have a hard time believing this, while I agree this game is sick and twisted and extremely violent, it's nothing we haven't seen before in any of the GTA or Resident Evil titles. If anyone takes this game to serious and causes any problems then blame the individual, not the game.

Okay, enough preaching, let's chat about this amazing game. No game I've ever played kept me more entertained, excited, and shaking my head in disbelief then 'Manhunt'. While I agree it is a tad slow and deliberate, the patience and persistence you need to play this only adds to the enjoyment. It's nice to have a game when you can use stealth instead of mass-murdering, when you use patience and planning istead of running head-on into the crowd and start hacking everything in sight. I also liked the way the game gets much harder the farther you advance, at first the beginning levels are rather easy, but as you hit level after level (there are 20) the game gets more intense and much more violent. Another big plus is you can control the severity of the kill, you can make it quick and mildly painfull, or make it gruesome and gory.

I have never been a huge fan of 'bosses' those games when you finish a level, but at the end there is some ultra-tough boss that takes an extreme amount of damage to destroy. With 'Manhunt' you don't get that, it's just gang member after gang member coming after you, all with different weapons that vary in inflicting damage on you. I have played and finished all the GTA games as well as the Resident Evil titles, and don't get me wrong, those are fun games (except Vice City, what a waste of time) but after playing 'Manhunt' and completing it some 15 times now, it amazed me how much those other games were lacking. For pure suspense, there is none better!!!!!!

Brian Cox supplies the voice of Starkweather, the main man in control of the whole game. You talk about a perfect fit, his voice is chilling yet comical at times, forcefull through most of the game, then pathetic and begging at the end. Cox absolutely nailed this, and heres hoping that if we ever get a sequel, his voice will again be behind it. So while I'm not gung-ho with the petition, etc, etc. I figure the more I can make people aware of this sensational game, then the more apt they will be to play it and buy it, maybe that will get Rockstar's attention.

Manhunt is without a doubt one of the most disturbing games ever made, and judging by the scores given to its sequel, it still retains that throne. You spend a lot of your time killing enemies without being detected, and if you are detected you're in deep s***. The game has an incredibly creepy environment to do your hellish deeds and eliminate the enemy. The game can get incredibly difficult, especially when you're trying to fight more than one enemy which will in many cases cost you your life. You can lead enemies into traps by making noise by banging your weapon against a wall. Then, when the enemy comes and doesn't see you and walks away you can kill him in macabre ways(via suffocation with plastic bags or stab him with a piece of glass, which is made more brutal when you hold down the attack button). You will only be terrified throughout this game because you don't know what will come for you next and how will it try and kill you. The game has problems though. The camera is a bit squirrelly, especially when looking around, and controls are a bit of a chore at times. But if you enjoy getting the s*** scared at you by all means pick up this game immediately.
