Can't say I'm too happy about it, remember the commotion Manhunter caused a few years ago? It got banned in New Sealand, Australia and Germany. It was ascociated with a murder between teenagers (though it was false alarm).

I've seen 5 minutes of this game and I was disgusted.

Yeah yeah of course, I'm a wussy and if I don't like it I don't have to buy it. But I'm also thinking of the image this game will give Nintendo....

Ok start the flamewars.

And with the wiimote shall be going through the motions of slicing a person's neck rather than just pressing a button. Controversy ahoy!

People have actually been killed over Xbox's.
Music has been linked to the death of kids.
Murder has been linked to religion, food, jealousy, greed, jokes, taking things the wrong way, accidents etc.



It's a game.
I think having it on the Wii would make it amazing, assuming the controls are a "slice the neck" motion, opposed to "flick your wrist down".

It would be fun.

I played the first Manhunter thingy. The basic premise is that someone is recording you kill people to make a snuff film. So that's pretty messed.

I didn't much care for it for reasons of premise and playability.
