Feedback of Manhunt 2 [PSP]


For the record, my 1st gruesome game played so far is Manhunt 1, which is rigged for PS2 few years back... Now Rockstar games had released Manhunt 2 few months back, which was telling the story of 2 prisoner escapee in search of truth (as one had lost his memory).

The gameplay is based on a sneak and attack role and reward player if they sneak long enough behind an enemy's back with a gruesome kill based on the weapon in his hand. The idea is good and the gameplay is sufficiently long, story line is also as twisted as the 1st game.

This game actually had a tough time passing the European board of ratings during the time of launch but eventually got over it after Rockstar agrees to release a tone down version in their market, sissies... Anyway total game play is around 10 hours, with perfectionist player needed slightly more if they want to kill EVERYONE and in STYLE.

I would not recommend to buy this game in original disc as the replayability is seriously limited, and reward for replayability is no big deal. Would put a score of 7/10 for this.

My Wish List

  1. PlayStation 3
  2. LCD TV (32" and above) with <2ms>
  3. Internet connection in Halaman [DONE]
  4. Satellite channel service in Halaman

  9. Her (Life ain't making it easy for me)
  10. Kitchen cabinet + renovated dish wash area
  11. Comfy 1x1m carpet [DONE]
  12. Dolby Digital Pro Logic II (Yes I know I already have Pro Logic, but who don't want the best)
  13. Active subwoofer (Yes I know I already have a passive one, active sounds more cool)
  14. Double storey property with at least 1200 sq. ft. build up and can cater a minimum of 2 cars
  15. PDA phone with GPS capable
  16. Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 Front speakers

The leprosy that was not meant to be

2 weeks ago me and Jeebs went KL for a vacation trip, joining us was Alvino, Grace and Jocy... it was a great trip (at least for me coz I manage to learn a lesson or 2 regarding gambling and manage to cover my holiday fees), btw the game played was Bacarrat and it is strictly a luck game.


The game was introduced by my colleague and he had offered some pretty good advice on the way of betting and based on the odds that I had so far (7 win and 1 lose), I would say either lady luck was on my side or that the technique works. However the 1 lose that I have is also the biggest amount of $$$ i lost in my life in 1 bet. Darn....
So having played, slept, gayed in KL for 3 days, me and Jeebs got into Malaysia's most luxurious bus trip (KL - Penang), onboard a NICE bus. With on board entertainment and NL doing announcement before departure, during toilet break and after arrival, plus snacks served, it was the best bus trip I have ever taken for my life in Malaysia, it was also the most expensive trip I have ever taken in my life RM56 from KL to Penang. Sick.

So the trip was nice, but a day later when I got back, Jeebs told me that he had infected with small bumps on the under side of the arm, at first I don't give a damn as I just thought he had infected with STD on the trip in KL, probably slept at Alvino's bed or sit in the same toilet bowl as Alvino's.... anyway at night the nightmare begins.... my elbow begins to itch, and upon investigation, small bumps have appeared around my right and left elbow, which looks reddish and cute. I ignored it and slept the night away....

... only to find out that the bumps have spread towards my wrist, the itch also had increased in magnitude and this goes on for the whole day at work, this had made me ponder what illness I might be having and the word leprosy came to mind after Jeebs mentioned it on MSN... Took an early leave from office and went straight to doctor at Peace Clinic. Doctor said its just an allergy reaction due to irritant (possibly food or skin contact, need skin biopsy to confirm). So applied the skin cream and taken the itch medicine, 1 week later the rash had gone away, leaving the mark of healing on its wake.

Not reall that bad but it is very kill joy / potong stim if people saw it.

I had enough! Declaring war on LOTR: RotK

I had been searching high and low for this piece of crap and had hit a square wall all this while, so I am officially declaring war on "Lord of the Ring: Return of the King - 4 disc Special Extended DVD version"!!!!!! This blardy box set has eluded my radar for the past 6 months, and now I'm switching my active sonar to hunt this sunnava biatch. To make matter worse, the ones that I wanted is the 'cheaper' version, which tags at around RM30 to RM40 depending on the mood of the seller... The original goes for around RM169


The direct and indirect places I have tried to look for are as below (in chronological order):

HK Video, Penangwide - Don't have
Megamall, Penang - Don't have
Sunway Carnival - Don't have DVD shop
Bukit Jambul, Pg - Don't have
Desa Sri Hartamas (3 separate shops), KL - Don't have
Sungai Wang (multiple shops), KL - Don't have
SS2 dvd shop, KL - Don't have
Taman Danau Desa, KL - Don't have
Prangin Mall, Pg - 1 shop selling original, others don't have
ChangPing (常平), DongGuan (3 shops) - Don't have
One Stop Megamall, Pg - Don't have
City Square, JB - Don't have
Bras Basah, Sg - Don't have
Bugis, Sg - Don't have
Parkway Parade, Sg - Don't have
Orchard road (3 separate shops), Sg - Don't have (2 weeks ago he say still has -.-)

I have seen Episode 1 and Episode 2 box edition in some places but die also don't have Episode 3.

I will make this an open post until I found that pesky sunnava biatch. I swear I will chew the blardy box if I can get my hands on these 'ultra rare' item.

Fuck you J.R.R Tolkien for making my life miserable!


Note: Finally settle for an original box version at RM140 at Pacific Prai. Can finally close this chapter and mark the end of the bloody hunt. (3rd August 2008)
