News > Manhunt 2 Fallout: Rockstar Thanks Its Supporters

June 29, 2007

Rockstar Games has taken the liberty to deliver a letter to the company's supporters during the recent Manhunt 2 controversy.  Rockstar believes that the game is receiving unfair criticism, and should be judged according to the same standards as other media

The letter, which arrived via e-mail, reads:

"We wanted to thank everyone who has taken the time to contact us about Manhunt 2.

"We are very proud of Manhunt 2 and believe it builds on what the team accomplished with the first title in the series. The game was developed as a horror experience, and to be an M rated title, aligning it with similar horror content created in other forms of media.

"Unlike many other people, we do not think videogames should be singled out for special treatment from the authorities. We hope to have more information for you soon, but in the meantime, we wanted you to know how much we value all of your messages of support."

At this time, distribution of Manhunt 2 remains suspended by Rockstar.
