Manhunt - PS2
Like a child who can with video games is unspeakable levels of violence on virtual opponents become weak and feeble a normal part of my life is to inflict grew. I began describing it as a syndrome of fallout. Why try to actually play a game where you can spend your time is much more powerful your enemies That Train the desert not to come with the fear, it is bloodlust.
I have come not only to enjoy the slaughter mercilessly Lore bad video game, as I do on the innocent, whenever possible. Unarmed? Sin. Get a gun. Oh wait, too late. You are dead I have always hated when the good guy play, is growing. I have to play the good husband every day, while driving the speed limit, not illegal to own a crossbow to buy Girl Scout cookies. The stuff is for the birds. When I turn on a video game system, I would like to escape from reality. So yes, I like bad. I like to blow up the city and the people stabbed in the back and all the other things you can only do in video games, with no serious talks some time in prison or an orange jumpsuit with CNN.
Call for the lost time.
But even with this attitude, I was surprised the first time I played Manhunt for the PlayStation 2 in 2004. The game revolves around a serial killer, in a kind of game, was thrown controlled by the military. set at each level the player must face a new kind of band one by one with a bonus to stealth kill.
Now I could usually care less about stealth. I have no patience for it. Give me a gun, give me mow down a quantity of ammunition and a sea of weaker enemies, while I enjoy a can of Dr. Pepper. Manhunt, but it is a different story. The reason? The best thing is lurking in the shadows of your kills brutally become.
Never wrap a plastic bag around the head by someone before crushing her skull into a wall? Never shoot someone to death with a nail gun? I, at least in my virtual world that is Manhunt.
In today's world where violence is everywhere, where I think a game like Manhunt must be commended for increasing the quantity. Yes, there are many out there that I'm sure I wrote-off the track as the blood and gore and little else. Me? I think it is a work of art, something so brutal and grotesque, that in a world where I killed hundreds of thousands of both evil and good from my kills Manhunt feature in my head.
Maybe one day I will age too big for my ego. The virtual madman who haunts the landscape of video games, want to leave my demons run free. Probably not, but. It's really funny, the blood running through the streets to send an Xbox. Especially with a can of Dr. Pepper, which is not the owner of the Pepsi or Coca-Cola. An independent company. I like it.
