11Yes yes.. I've missed you guys too. I'm looking forward to giving Quake Wars another shot when I get back home in a few days. Of course I've still got to play through BioShock and finish Prime 3... hmmm. Things could be worse!

They played the levels shown before but of the version that was rated AO. It gives a nice description of what was changed to allow its eventual release in October.

The biggest and most disappointing change relates to the major death strikes. ... In the AO-rated build of Manhunt 2, we could clearly see these over-the-top and horrific animations. In the M-rated version, Rockstar has added both an extreme blur effect and in most cases darkened the graphics so that it is nearly impossible to make any sense of what is going on. Players will be able to see character movement, blood splatters, and sometimes they may catch a glimpse of an identifiable action (for example, Danny jamming nails into the legs of a chair-bound opponent), but mostly it's guesswork - a garbled, motiony mess that's far less satisfying.
I'm thinking this is a potential Hot Coffee Part 2, because this sounds like a mod could be created to get rid of the blurring and fix the lighting and you'll have your AO-rated title back. You can argue that this is for consoles, etc. but a determined guy unlocked the PS2 version of GTA:SA and it caused an uproar.
