Take Two Vows To Publish Manhunt 2
Despite Manhunt 2's bad reception in both UK and US, Take Two has publicly announced that it will publish the game at some point. Backing the title as art, once again, the company vowed to see the game released in some capacity or another. "The chairman added that Take-Two subsidiary Rockstar Games, which publishes Manhunt and the Grand Theft Auto series, sees itself as a producer of games rated M for Mature. However, Zelman did say Take-Two would stand by its game, even if it bore the dreaded AO for Adults Only rating. 'We don't see ourselves in the Adults Only business,' he told analysts listening to the call. 'Having said that, if we find ourselves in the Adults Only business, it would be because we have a title that we consider art and entertainment, that we consider if appropriately labeled AO, and that we would like to bring to market.'"
In some capacity or another, eh? Come on collectible card game!
Modern copyright is theft of culture from everyone and it retards the progress of the useful arts and sciences.
Did anyone else read the headline and misconstrue it that way, implying that the company that was going to publish the game had previously vowed to publish a particular game and then suddenly did so again, as if pledging the first time wasn't sufficient?
File under 'M' for 'Manic ranting'
