The Associated Press reports that a Take-Two official said the temporary suspension is to give the company time to review its options, while a spokesperson from game developer Rockstar was unable to comment on Take-Two's decision. Rockstar, which is also the creator of the controversial Grand Theft Auto games, has the opportunity to appeal the ESRB's AO classification or to modify the game to bring it into the M classification. Most large US retailers do not sell AO games, and in any case both Sony and Nintendo do not licence AO content for their consoles. Manhunt 2 was to be released on July 10 for the Wii and PS2.{moscomment} |
