The uncut PC version of Manhunt 2 is out now on Direct2Drive for North America.

Direct2Drive: Manhunt 2

Direct2Drive is offering a free copy of the first Manhunt when you pre-order the PC version of Manhunt 2. Remember Vista/7 users, once you get Manhunt 1 downloaded and installed, you'll need to run the patcher for it to run.

Pre-order: Direct2Drive

Rockstar has sent us back an email today stating that the PC port of Manhunt 2 is a Direct2Drive exclusive and that the game will only be available in North America. (while the email states that it's "US only", the Direct2Drive page includes US, Mexico and Canada)

Hi AJ,
Manhunt 2 for PC is a Direct2Drive exclusive that will only be available in the US.  There are currently no plans to release the game on Steam.
Cheers

Manhunt 2 for PC will be out on Direct2Drive November 6th.

While Rockstar has yet to say anything officially about Manhunt 2's PC version, over the year we've been finding numerous hints towards a PC version. Today, Direct2Drive has started listing a pre-order for the PC version of Manhunt 2 for $29.99. This version is the AO rated uncut version that Rockstar originally tried to put out back in 2007 but was blocked due to console manufactures not allowing AO games on their systems. While the listing doesn't go into details about the content, it does say the PC version of the game supports 3D monitors. The listing also mentions how much space the game takes up, 3.66 GB and the system requirements.

• Operating System: Windows XP (Home and Professional), SP1 or higher plus DirectX 9.0c / Windows Vista
• Processor: Intel Pentium 4 (1.7+ GHz), AMD Athlon 1800+
• Memory: 512MB XP / 1GB Vista, 3.8GB Hard Drive Space
• Video Card: DirectX 9.0c Shader 2.0 Supported, 128 MB, Nvidia 6200 or Better, ATI Radeon x300 or Better
• Sound Card: DirectX 9.0 Compliant
• Peripherals: Keyboard and Mouse Required

Manhunt 2 for PC releases November 6th. Wether or not the game will come to Steam or limited retail (most stores won't carry AO games) is unknown at the time. We've sent an email to Rockstar asking for more details.

K109 The Studio

DJ Karl returns to K109 The Studio with a new mix of club classics from the likes of Chic and Créme D'Cocoa.

Vladivostok FM

DJ Paul brings the party from the UK all the way to the dance floor at Bahama Mamas. Proper tunes. Let's 'ave it, yeah?

Also, Rockstar is adding a new station to the mix called Vice City FM. If the DJ's voice sounds familiar to you, that's because it's Fernando Martinez! Keep in mind that Vice City FM is only available on the Episodes from Liberty City disc and will not be included with the downloadable version to The Ballad of Gay Tony due to music royalties.

Vice City FM

Yes. Fernando is back. Spreading love throughout the airwaves via the best hits of the 1980's on Vice City FM.

In celebration of the launch of the PSP version of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, Rockstar has updated the Social Club section for Chinatown Wars with a bunch of new stuff.

Similar to Mr. Wongs, Peking Duck Hunt is another mini-game allowing you to earn money in-game. The game involves making moo shu pancakes at Sum Young Gai's restaurant.
