  1. Still somewhat disturbing and suitably creepy, Manhunt 2 still manages to provide a chilling good time on the PSP. With decent controls and loads of stealthy kills, it might still generate plenty of controversy anyway but more mature gamers will find this worth playing if they enjoyed the PS2/Xbox original.
  2. It's hardly the pinnacle of stealth games - the enemies are dumb, and there's not much to do aside from sneaking and killing - but if you're in the mood for something creepy and horrific that'll leave you feeling a little dirty, Manhunt 2's still-shocking murders and eerie, is-it-real-or-am-I-just-insane storyline won't disappoint.
  3. Manhunt 2, though not as original and challenging as its predecessor, is a worthy sequel but not necessarily a must-buy. It’s certainly worth renting, and rental period is sufficient enough to beat the game’s 8 to 9 hour campaign.

    The deep, twisting plot coupled with visuals that you thought you'd never see on a handheld refuse to let you go. However, when you've seen every single execution and discovered the mysteries of the plot (which should take around seven or eight hours), there isn't a lot of incentive to play through it again.

    A bland third-person stealth adventure with sub-par combat and annoyingly stylized death sequences.
  6. It's a sometimes great-looking, seldom spooky copy of its original that doesn't quite live up to the media buzz.
  7. It has slapdash controls and is riddled with gameplay issues, but the game achieves what it sets out to do: be a temporary distraction that's good for relieving a bit of tension.
  8. Controversy aside, Manhunt 2 doesn't deliver gameplay entertaining enough to justify its sophomoric sense of humour. A lack of technical polish and censored elements prevent it from being anything more than a fleeting talking point.

    Probably the best PSP game released to date. The blur effects are a bit of a hinderance, but not too bad. This is made up with the Probably the best PSP game released to date.

Les execution (malgré la censure) sont asser gore et diversifier ! Et je dirais le meilleur point de ce jeux Est les contrôles qui son tout simplement incroyable , ils sont simples et agréables ! Les scènes de tire sont plaisantes et la caméra suit bien le personnage ! Pour une console qui a seulement 1 joystick je donne 10/10 aux contrôles ! Full Review »
