CBS News investigates Manhunt 2. Daniel Sieberg talks to a gaming enthusiast and a child psychiatrist about the controversial video game targeted for teens.
Katie Couric also comments that she believes the game can be dangerous for kids who play it, and could be dangerous to others because it will make these kids violent. She encourages parents to not let their kids play this form of "entertainment". This additional video can be found here: http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/i_video/main500251.shtml?id=3432308n
Oh how ignorant the masses can be sometimes...
I wouldn't buy my kids sh!t like that nor would I have sh!t like that in the house so they could see me play some sh!t like that.
The thing is, the makers of Manhunt did this on purpose and it will only bring unwarranted criticism to the industry. Resident Evil did horror perfectly without over the top crap in it like Manhunt.
GTA efed-up with the Mrs. Clinton stupidity, we dont need that.
Now some parents will see this being done on the Wii and automatically think their kid is going to get their little hands on this crap and not buy a Wii for them at all. This is why Nintendo wouldn't allow things like this in the past on their machine, now their trying to be cool and its going to backfire right in Nintendos face.
Also, Manhunt will only sell about 20k on the Wii, it's not worth the bad press.
Anyone other than adults shouldn't play some games, gamers should be free but also responsible.
IF anyone saw the new South Park a few weeks ago, we would know now that the Fecal Matter Weights and Standards Division uses the measurement known as "Courics" to weigh turds. Coincidence? I think not.
PS. for those of you wondering, I believe a "couric" is equal to about 1.5 pounds.
That is the crappiest player I've ever seen. He's practically giving the wiimote a handjob.
When will idiots learn you don't have to flail your arms to use the motion censoring correctly. This guy completely misrepresents the game and controls by his overreaction.
I hate that they use him as negative contrast with a reserved psychiatrist that has a accent. The military doesn't use game to desensitize it's soldiers. The military prays on the gamer demographic based off stereographical evaluation (gamers have low self-esteem, minimum paying jobs, live with parents, lack friends and love interest, easy to manipulate).
