Manhunt
Manhunt is a third-person action game published by Rockstar
in 2003. Players control James Earl Cash, a convict recently escaped from
death row. The objective is to survive a series of gruesome encounters
with violent street gangs, whilst a sinister film director records the
action for a snuff movie. The game has been banned in Germany, Australia
and New Zealand, and was blamed for a teenage murder in the UK. Additional
information about Manhunt is available on Wikipedia. Manhunt 2 was released in 2007, and proved similarly controversial.
