Manhunt 2 review at Gamer's Temple.

"If you are reading this, it is almost a certainty that you've heard about Rockstar's Manhunt 2. The game was originally slated for a mid-summer release, but due to the most disturbing and violent content ever seen in a video game, the game was rated "Adults Only" by the ESRB. Rockstar took the game and toned down the brutality a bit to achieve a "Mature" rating, which effectively allowed the game to be released rather than banned. If nothing else, the game was successful in opening the debate on whether video games are still viewed as kid's toys by the mainstream. In a fan community that places so much emphasis on the difference between "adult" and "kiddy," the decision not to release Manhunt 2 in its original form proved that gamers, their systems and even the people behind the games are still viewed as children to be marginalized by those in the more mainstream entertainment communities. Think about that the next time you snicker at someone for buying Pokemon while you're purchasing an "M" rated game; to the world at large, the two of you are exactly the same."
