They just killed Cash. Now, they want to kill him again. America is full of run down, broken rust-belt towns where nobody cares and anything goes. In Carcer City, nothing matters anymore and all that's left are cheap thrills. The ultimate rush is the power to grant life and take it away, for sport.

For six years he spent in the nuthouse, Daniel Lam no time deprived of reason. Degree, a prestigious job, a loving wife and two small children - what is it? Fruit being enacted imagination or past life, remaining outside the damned hospital?

The developer of Grand Theft Auto delivers its darkest, most violent game yet in Manhunt, a thirdperson perspective stealth action game that puts you in the role of a death row inmate forced to run a deadly gauntlet at the whim of a sadistic cinematographer. Released a few months ago for the PlayStation 2, Manhunt is now available for the Xbox and PC, and while these new versions feature exactly the same content as the PS2 original, they deliver relatively superior graphical qualityand in the case of the PC version, improved controls. The game itself unflinchingly depicts intense graphic violence, the likes of which you might expect from a slasher movie but not so much from games.
