From what you've quoted not many people did...

What exactly was so great about it to call for all the censorship?
What VK-Pitt said. Mistakes in the investigation were made, but it was enough of an implication to raise some eyebrows at the time, I guess. Either way, now that eyes are on Manhunt, it's nature is definitely controversial, whether "well within the bounds established by the BBFC's 18-plus ratings certification" or not.

Not only that, Manhunt wasn't even a good game. In fact, it sucked (I played for an hour then had to stop because it was so God-awful retarded, repetitive, and overall a disgusting concept). Other than it's shock value, it isn't even worth mentioning. I can't see Manhunt 2 being any different, except maybe more bloody and profane.

I shudder at the thought of a Saw game. The movies were bad enough. In all meanings of the word. They really don't need to make a video game based on it. (*BARF*)

Censorship is a subject that has been thrown around so much, it's hard to know who's right or wrong anymore. Assuming that there even IS a right or wrong.
