Wow, looking at this game from a distance you would be sure what to think. But once you get close and play it you quickly realize that there is some fun gameplay to be had here.

My favoutrite item in this game is the use of the Live headset. If you don't got one while playing this game you are missing out on alot of the fun. The character in the game wears an earpiece in which the director gives him direction. Normally these put up on the screen as plain text, however put on your headset and you hear the director tell you what to do.

Also any noise you make is sent through the headset into the game. This brings you directly into the game, imagine that you are hiding from an enemy in the shadows, not only do you have to make sure your character is hid well but you have to remain quiet as well in real life as any loud sounds will alert the enemy to your posistion. Or use the opposite, use your own voice to draw an enemy closer while you wait in the shadows to execute him.

And this game means execute, once you sneak up behind someone and charge your kill into the red zone, sit back and watch the blood fly.

DISTURBING + CREEPY= AWESOME 8 OUT OF 10

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.

Love it

This is by far one of Rockstar Game's greatest achievments ever. The one mistake is that it is a multi platform game. When will rockstar make a game exclusively for the Xbox? When they do it will completely kill Sony. LONG LIVE XBOX AND MANHUNT. THE BEST SNEAKING GAME OUT THERE!)

STUPID,STUPID,STUPID!!

This game was a surprise. I got a general impression from reveiwers thAT this game wasn't worth playing. Wrong! This game was real fun. But it seems (...)who reveiwed it were wrong as always, because they are fans of Harry (...) potter. If you want to play an adult game, then play it and let it speak for itself. (...) Get a life man.

Excellent

Why aren't all games this good? The challenge was great! It rarely got easier any part of the game. Twisting and turning trying to find the guy who was sending you this mess was a blast! The graphics were the goriest I've ever seen. Controversal to say the least. It was awesome they chimed in the rednecks actual attitudes with biggoted southern humor. I think some of the homophobic or racial slurs could have been toned down with more "F" words or something for the mere sake that most the people that play this are kids, and behavior is learned. The game regardless is amazing, well done!

Manhunt is awesome

Manhunt is one of the best games for the x-box.With its storyline
and graphics it is a instant classic.It starts out as you(james earl cash)have been brought back to life by Starkweather.He tells you to put on a ear peice, listen to him and figth to survive.You must be steathly and kill everyone and you may survive.Near the end it gets harder as you must take out the carcer city S.W.A.T. If you try to kill them by just shoot them,stand and wait,you will be KILLED.When the other S.W.A.T hear your sawed-off, they will come runing.And at the end you fight the big one,Piggsy.He is a big pig like thing with a chainsaw.He is hard.But it will be wroth it when you beat the game.With the level of difficulty,graphics,wepons,and GOREY,GOREY,VIOLENT kills, It is a great game.

Its all in the System!

What a bummer, Manhunt falling into the grasps of the evil x-box and its 2 game limit. Its pathetic, but I must admit at least now x-box has one good game on their console.

(...)
Besides all that, the game doesn't perform well on the x-box whatsoever. The controls are hard and glitchy, and the pixels are too underdone. The most critical thing is that the controls were under-looked which makes the game just as sad as the xbox. The game is great and receives a 5 but instead of playing it on the xbox just throw the game in the toilet. It's a lot more disrespectful and definitely more entertaining.

I wanted to LOVE it....

This is truly one of those games where looks can be deceiving. It is quite violent, but the violence is always a cut scene. There are 3 levels of stealth kills. Each levels kill for a single weapon is always teh same, so it gets a bit repetitive. The only things i HATED were that it's ALL stealth and if you actually have to engage in melee combat with an enemy it takes them forever to go down. Truly an inspiring game though..I am thinkign about renting it again to see if i can get further and enjoy it more.

THIS IS YOUR FAV CHARLIE V1 MANHUNT ROX
