Happy to see that happen. I love Manhunt's totally old-school, totally uncompromising take on stealth--and I mean stealth, not stealth-action. Without a good Thief game in sight, and with Splinter Cell and Hitman down the tubes (Convicted may be promising, but is barely stealth anymore, and Hitman just isn't truly open-ended), Manhunt could be the last bastion of true stealth. Or at least that's the way I see it.
I'm not a big fan of the overdone gore and stuff, though I do like Rockstar's emphasis on the player's emotional connection to the game. I've gotta respect Rockstar for making the exact kind of horror-sneaking action I like.
