PSP hackershave discovered a way to get around Rockstar's self-censorship of Manhunt 2 and enjoy the game "the way it was intended", using illegal software to edit the game's code.

The released version of Manhunt 2 has been heavily censored by Rockstar, with an alarming negative-style effect laid over the grittiest parts of each execution. See the difference for yourself below in thePS2 versions(zip to the end of the clip to see censored/non-censored comparisons):
