    You should, it's much more clever than you would expect it to be. It's incredibly violent but all the violence serves to make you really really uncomfortable with it, it's certainly no torture porn, more anti really

    That's the thing - I really do not like ultra-violence in anything, be it game, film or book. The game makes me plenty uncomfortable without playing a minute of it.

    It serves a purpose in Manhunt. It's not mindlessly violent it kinda makes a point

    Got the game today, and played it for a bit. Quite enjoyable so far, haven't seen a gun yet, which is quite refreshing. The melee combat has been widely compared to the Arkham games, it's slightly simpler and not quite as fun, but it's still better than most open world games. The environment attacks are pretty good, though they are starting to get repetitive already, hopefully there are more as the game goes on. Graphics on PS3 are passable, the voice work is very good so far. Seem to be a decent amount to do, main story missions, cop missions (only 4, though they seem to be a decent length, I've done two parts of the first one already), favours (which raise your "face", your rep with the people in Hong Kong), car thefts, races and I think there's one more I've forgotten. I'll post more when I'm further in. For the record, I found GTA4 pretty disappointing, I'm probably enjoying this more so far.

    OK. I got the game. And I keep on crashing before the game even loads. How do I fix this? I've searched everywhere, and nothing seems to work.
