Probably helped that Brian Cox was Scottish as well.. Don't know if he was local at the time because you know how that works lol.. I love that statement though they made, about playing GTA ethically.. I was just thinking about that the other day and I realized I feel like I have less of a problem playing through manhunt, then I do through certainly the modern GTA games ethically.. what they said was not accurate at all lol.. at the very least everybody I'm engaging in this game is more than likely going to commit horrible murders at some point in the future.. Even the cops, especially the cops... Whereas that's not always the case in the GTA game and you don't have any agency over the mission structure.
I love how Manhunt has been getting the attention it deserves lately, not that I expect Rockstar to care but it goes to show that the community for their older titles is still alive and thriving irrelevant of the company's input.
Sadly they can't possibly make a game like this again, with today's graphichs? I don't know how it wouldn't get shot down before it even launched, maybe they could pull it off I'm hoping that they can, Manhunt was cool af back in the day
@@Leandro7470 Last of us 2 is the closest Thing To a ManHunt type game But was no where near as Fucked up as Manhunt2. Last of us 2 kills were pretty quick and more like watching a John wick movie brutal but stylised. Manhunt2 was very really and kills were long and drawn out.
Hell the tech we got now would be intense but with all the shit going on would spark up the same shit back in the old days...is jack thompson still alive?
The final encounter with Piggsy is still one of the most tense, harrowing experiences I've had with a game. Being stalked by a chainsaw-wielding maniac that can pop out anywhere while you're trying to scavenge for weapons and get the drop on him? That just gets the heart pumping.
Back in the day, I actually wrote a snail mail letter to Rockstar to thank them for Manhunt. I got a letter (that didn't seem like a mail merge letter), and a giant Manhunt poster back from them. These days, I can't imagine that Rockstar would give a toss if their playerbase wrote to them.
I remember back in the day they opened an email to take suggestions for GTAO, I remember asking them if we could get a flashlight we could point instead of just having to use weapons and alert NPCs and whatnot, it probably wasn't just me who suggested it, but they did it and it felt nice
I remember the sheer dread I felt the first time I saw the SWAT guys with flashlights in that tunnel. For so long, darkness had been your best friend through the game. Now even the shadows weren’t safe. Really really frustrating mission though.
It’s one of my favorites. It’s a mission you really have to take your time with and master. Same goes for the last three levels with the Cerberus. The Cerberus are a culmination of everything. They start off cocky and funny, and slowly as they start to get picked off they become more erratic 😂😂😂 One of my favorite games of all time.
Most of the story of manhunt is actually in the book in the sleeve of the game. You have to read it front to back to get clues too. My dad loved this game while I was growing up and it is one of the reasons why I don’t like horror games or movies in general. It scared the shit outta me and when I saw this pop up on my timeline, I wanted to see if it still did. Lol
I remember renting it from Blockbuster and playing it for an hour and feeling "ill". I dropped the controller then came back, dropped it, came back. I ended up returning the game early (probably day 3), but about a week later I bought it! I play it every September to get into Halloween mode. I rarely finish it, because it's grotesque. Finally got an HDMI adapter for my ps2 lol.
I've been getting a lot of recommended videos lately looking back at the Manhunt series, which is cool. While I doubt Rockstar would ever bother revisiting it, for multiple reasons, it's great to remember what's fittingly the black sheep of their catalogue. I think you're spot on when you mention that there's not much really like Manhunt's horror, very primal. I'd like to see some other studios trying for similar, maybe something like Outlast, but a little more grounded.
I remember back in 2020 when i first played this game. the piggsy fight in the attic straight up scared the hell out of me. Because how he just jumps out when you least expect it.
Manhunt is a childhood classic its awesome to see people are still playin it, i bought it recently cuz it brings back great memories its a crazy ass thrill ride full of anxiety 💯💯
Great video! Fun fact, I never completed Manhunt BECAUSE of that train/subway station near the end, with all the cops that shoot into the shadows even if they didnt see you go into that specific shadow. it was so frustrating that I never got around to beating it, tho now with this vid im wondering if I should try it again, since i didnt know back then that the Pigsy boss battle came after that
Oh my god, I struggled so hard with that specific scene. It took me about 20 tries until I finally got it. I definitely recommend re-trying if you're willing to.
Manhunt scenery and dialog makes you feel like you was in the game.. shit felt real when I was a kid.. I was scared of getting caught and the kill sceens gave me nightmares. Plus the music was up there in horror movies
This game was seriously fun as hell. You honestly felt like you were being hunted which made certain parts really intense. Nothing gave me more anxiety than hiding and having an inmate stop and look right where I'm hiding. I also remember I was 16 and they wouldn't sell it to me. My mom genuinely didn't care and bought it for me.
Honestly, there are very few games that truly grapple with as dark themes as Manhunt without being exploitative. Manhunt, ironically, is intentionally exploitative. It's grindhouse as it gets. But how many games deal with themes such as snuff, capitalism or capital punishment like Manhunt? I don't think it's a thematically strong game, but without Manhunt, the "games are for kids" sentiment remains. Pretty instrumental in pushing video games from the idea of "nerdy kid" shit to a legitimate art form for adults.
The premise of a horror game based on pure, psychopathic reality is genius. I don't think another game has done it. You have the slasher thing where the character is explicitly/implicitly supernatural, and then you have implausible reality like the Purge or whatever, but Manhunt feels like a realistic horror scenario: an immoral person on death row gets cast into a snuff film, but ends up having the brutality to escape. Combined with the desperately bleak art direction and terrifying music, Manhunt is a genius piece of art
Is it bad that I learned this gave at 7yrs old when I had my ps2 ahhh what a classic n I still play it on my ps4 man I wish they remastered it better graphics better same camera quality n better more gruesome execution’s
Been playing this game since I was 4 years old ! I've been revisiting it every year since I got it on Steam. The athmosphere, the executions, the camera pov, the music. A nostalgic game for me, a true classic !
@@SSchithFoo I was always taught that games were fake thanks to them. So no, they are not horrible parents. They simply gave me the freedom to enjoy games like these as long as I knew they were not real. Thats good parenting in my book.
Part of the reason I enjoyed Cyberpunk 2077 is that it had a similarly grimy and dark atmosphere that reminded me a bit of Manhunt, wish more games had it
I don't think that would be any problem for another manhunt game I mean games like the last of us part 2 have more violence But they don't face any problem ...
R* have definitely made better games in the past. I think their last good GTA title is IV + Ballad of Gay Tony. V was a massive let down for me, I hated Trevor. Michael was annoying and Franklin had about as much personality as a grilled cheese sandwich. What with the way they've abandoned RDR2 online they're just not the same company anymore. Great video.
In terms of being ahead of the curve in terms of a cover system, Metal Gear Solid 2 beat it by a few years and Operation Winback even more from the N64.
I wanted to play manhunt today with my ps5 but it’s really buggy and the camera controls are extremely dated and so bad. I couldn’t get a grasp on the camera controls for an hour. I kept getting myself spotted and stuck on walls. The PC port looks far more manageable
For the stealth system for sure, The warriers, Manhunt, Maxpayne 3, RDR1, GTA5, GTA4 and Bully were all games that inspired RDR2 they took The best things from this games and added it in.
Did you ever imagine a crossover between "Manhunt" and "Madoka Magica" ? Just imagine for a moment. A girl who is told by Kyubey that the evil behind the city is all being caused by the witches. But as the story progresses, and the more time the girl spends with the protagonist, seeing how the city's evil was also caused by humans alone, there's a point in which she just gives up, and after Lionel's demise, she becomes a witch continuing on his job, and her executioner is none other than Kyoko, the girl who represents humanity's greed.
The sound design is incredible. Specifically the kills which sound realistic instead of cinematic. The audio really helps you fill in the details that the low res graphics lack with your imagination.
The 2nd game visuals/graphics weren't that great but the AUDIO was disgusting. Truly uncomfortable, it's questionable how Rockstar created those noises. They must have some killer Foley artists, no pun intended
I played this when it came out on a busted old crt TV and I think that it really added to the whole experience. Doom 3 was supposed to be the spooky game at the time but manhunt really took the cake for me.
Everyone always says the later levels are just shooting and drops in quality but if you want to get 5 stars on those levels you still have to play them stealthily and execute.
I am so confused by the Rockstar Employee having a problem with this game. "In GTA You never HAVE to hurt anyone who's not a bad guy." I don't remember Manhunt even having people who weren't bad guys in it that you COULD harm without failing the level you're on. So the game that doesn't let you harm innocents is going to far, but the one that give you the option to gun down pedestrians at a cross walk is ok...
I think what they mean is that you had a choice to kill that pediatrician on the street. In the missions in GTA, through the character’s eyes and to the player, they were the bad guys. Manhunt’s different. You have to kill the gangs in gruesome ways and you get rewarded for it through the director’s praise and score at the end of the level
I'm glad people have been recently praising this game. It's kinda strange that when Rockstar tried to shock, they were so much more effective then this lazy GTA V schlock.
@@SolidRaiden2655 GTA 5 is a game with good graphics, and that took up all the budget and work it seems like. Game is devoid of the fleshed out content that SA had. SA is simply one of a kind, a game from a different age, when Rockstar cared about fun over visuals.
I watched a video about manhunt about a month ago and I thought to myself, "Damn, I wish Boulder Punch had a manhunt video." What a great day for me to see this, such fuckin happiness bro. I haven't even started it yet but I am so fucking pumped because every video you make is fucking amazing.
Acquired this game in the 6th grade upon release...blew me away. This was right around the time rockstar did the warriors as well, also blew me away. San Andreas came out around the same time, also blew me away. Manhunt is still my personal favorite out of that era though, such a gritty and all around middle finger to everything AAA games stood for, and still does
Regarding the choice of colors for the arrows on the radar my theory is that by making the idle state yellow the player unconsiously feels more tensione given the fact that most of the times it is a color associated with danger in videogames. if it were green the player would relax too much when not seen. That's my interpretation at least since it is a weird color choice of colors
Annnnnd there it is again. I can whole heartedly say in confidence again that anytime someone makes a video about manhunt, the “made us feel icky” quote is somewhere in the video. I can’t make this up.
Played it for the first time last year suprised how great it was. Only thing it needed was more environmental kills. Also playing on Hardcore is the way to go.
The big irony is that the game was a smug justification of contextualised violence. That’s how the game didn’t get banned half as much as the second. In Australia they ban everything but what would you expect from a country that would “nominate” Dan Andrews as PM.
Xbox was the best version ! If you had the xbox live headset and use it while playing the game starkweather voice wod come out through the headset and if you make noise irl the enemys can hear it ! So awesome
When it comes to the voicelines (not a tragedy) you've left out the lines they say when they actually see you try to enter a shadow. I think the change in pace is well written, and at some point when it gets out of hand, it doesn't make sense to have an army of crazies just hunting you, but the actual force (who will obviously have guns). So if you wanna keep doing the hunt thing it's up to you but that would only prove you're sick in the head (the character). I really enjoyed this game when I played it first time at around 15yo
We never get a 3rd installment R star and Take Two Interactive won't take that gamble. At least we have GTA Online where I am part of a V V E crew and make an in-universe themed maps that connects both games. One is called Hopeful Hunters an audition like X-factor parody for enterprising psychopathic wannabe V V E stars compete to make the grade. Huntdown vics and take proof of kill and cash them in first one to 8 wins.

He's very unsettling to say the least.
@@BoulderPunch I don't know what to be afraid of more. His chainsaw, or his "little piglet" flashing you as he chases after you.
I agree. Worth it, though. Lol
@@DinoDave150 he has a quite huge one actually
Made it especially satisfying to unlock the Start With Weapons cheat so you could drop him instantly with a headshot.

Yeah because they’ve been taken over by spoiled brat woke millennial SJWs

The stealth in this is a lot better than Burial At Sea's stealth which is ironic because this game came out a decade before Bioshock Infinite.

Intro be like: most polite man in Birmingham
Man this game was a masterpiece
Logan Roy would be the director
I feel like we woulda been friends growing up on the same street with the near identical catalogue of games you played 😂😂😂 you have amazing taste dude
Bought it last week on my ps4. Played the first level and thinking about finishing the game.
In terms of being ahead of the curve in terms of a cover system, Metal Gear Solid 2 beat it by a few years and Operation Winback even more from the N64.
@BIG DICK ClUTCH the two games I mentioned beat splinter cell to it.
Manhunt é o meu jogo Furtivo favorito.
Minha gangue favorita é os Smileys : )
(papai pig dá muito medo D:)
a little something about the first game my mother literally had nightmares from that shit when she saw my older brother playing it.
solid game though
One of my favorite horror games behind resident evil 4
Played through this recently game really is a masterpiece challenging but lots of fun
I wish Rockstar remastered The Warriors game. It was super cool.
I swear to god Rockstar has a fetish of having the game's protagonist working for the bad guy.
Used to get Nightmares from this game. Had dreams i was cash being chased by pigsy
Lmaooo i thought i was the only one
Whats the symphony song in the beginning name ??
Loved manhunt I got this and the warriors at the same time. Thatd be cool if you could cover that game
OMG that video ending lol
I wanted to play manhunt today with my ps5 but it’s really buggy and the camera controls are extremely dated and so bad. I couldn’t get a grasp on the camera controls for an hour. I kept getting myself spotted and stuck on walls. The PC port looks far more manageable
Yea what a fantastic sound ☠💀
I remember this game was banned in the UK because 2 boys had both taken 2 hammers into the woods and one boy killed the other
Best Rockstar Game Ever.......We need a remake or remaster or Manhunt 3
Hey. Has anyone here got the PS4 version of it? How is the port? I’m thinking about buying it.
I was always under the impression manhunt was mostly a proof of concept for gta:sa’s combat systems.
For the stealth system for sure, The warriers, Manhunt, Maxpayne 3, RDR1, GTA5, GTA4 and Bully were all games that inspired RDR2 they took The best things from this games and added it in.
dont play on easy mode bro da fuck
The society is too soft for a masterpiece like this.
They should do manhunt 3 , 3 protagonists like 15 missions each , do cash's and lambs follow up story and add a female character as third
Twisted for this new soft generation 😂

Fuck pc just get it on PS4 save you the issues

How is a colour gradient nonsense, and your "sensible" solution, is three random colours?
I wish Rockstar could make more games that is outside of GTA and RDR like Manhunt, The Warriors and Bully.
AGREED 💯💯
Almost thought there wasn't going to be a DSP reference. Thank God I was wrong.

A series that will sadly never see the light of day.
It did
I wonder if a Manhunt 3 with the gore depth of a modern Mortal Kombat would be accepted today. Not a sicko, but I'd play that!
Starkweather was so sick it made Cash, a death row inmate seem like Link from legend of Zelda.
The first person mod for this game is so awesome!!!
Why is it that when we have movies and books that depict way worse stuff than in this game but because this is a videogame it gets controversy?
I like the first Manhunt better than Manhunt 2
Regarding the choice of colors for the arrows on the radar my theory is that by making the idle state yellow the player unconsiously feels more tensione given the fact that most of the times it is a color associated with danger in videogames. if it were green the player would relax too much when not seen.

Annnnnd there it is again. I can whole heartedly say in confidence again that anytime someone makes a video about manhunt, the “made us feel icky” quote is somewhere in the video. I can’t make this up.
Love this to get a full on remake. One of Rockstar’s most underrated games, incredibly tense and atmospheric.
No it is too sick to exist
@@SSchithFoo Mortal Kombat does the same things?
Brian cox is an amazing actor
Given that your butchering murders, rapists, corrupt cops and literal snuff film directors, I don’t see why anyone would be offended by these games.
Played it for the first time last year suprised how great it was. Only thing it needed was more environmental kills. Also playing on Hardcore is the way to go.
One of my favorite games of all time. I play it every October.
Manhunt is so underrated...it needs a remake
The Cerberus made the game for me tbh, I spent hours on those last two missions. I could beat piggsy in under 5 mins too
Imagine working at Rockstar, near the top of their game and being a wet wipe about some violence in a game 😂
The big irony is that the game was a smug justification of contextualised violence. That’s how the game didn’t get banned half as much as the second. In Australia they ban everything but what would you expect from a country that would “nominate” Dan Andrews as PM.
I guess Mr.Nasty ruined her life in the alternative ending
Lmfao that DSP outro tho
Xbox was the best version ! If you had the xbox live headset and use it while playing the game starkweather voice wod come out through the headset and if you make noise irl the enemys can hear it ! So awesome
This game was intense when trying to hide and not get caught
Oh god, the end card. XD
Great video, just so you know, you can play on Xbox One backwards compatible and it looks glorious 👌
Manhunt remake wheeeeeeen? aaaaaaaaaaaa
I never knew Brian Cox was in this game, cool!
We need a remake
This game is great the last couple missions reminded me of Hotline Miami with the trial and error
I played this game when I was 15, and I fucking LOVED it!
Most of the time the orange kills are more satisfying than the red ones.
When it comes to the voicelines (not a tragedy) you've left out the lines they say when they actually see you try to enter a shadow.
I think the change in pace is well written, and at some point when it gets out of hand, it doesn't make sense to have an army of crazies just hunting you, but the actual force (who will obviously have guns). So if you wanna keep doing the hunt thing it's up to you but that would only prove you're sick in the head (the character).
I really enjoyed this game when I played it first time at around 15yo
We never get a 3rd installment R star and Take Two Interactive won't take that gamble. At least we have GTA Online where I am part of a V V E crew and make an in-universe themed maps that connects both games. One is called Hopeful Hunters an audition like X-factor parody for enterprising psychopathic wannabe V V E stars compete to make the grade. Huntdown vics and take proof of kill and cash them in first one to 8 wins.
I recommend playing it with PCSX2 emu. Looks and runs wonderful with the upscaler.
