Ex-Vienna Programmer says "Manhunt 2 = crap game"

Published at 8:34 PM PST

Ex-Rockstar Vienna employee, Gareth White, who was apparently a programmer on Manhunt 2 has jumped on the Manhunt 2 Put-Down Train today following his friend Jurie Horneman who posted about the missing Vienna credits in Manhunt 2 last week. He had this to say on his Blog today:

I haven’t played the released version myself, but it sounds like it’s virtually identical to the PS2 & Xbox version we finished back in summer 2006, apart from the edits needed to comply with the ESRB, obviously.

At least Wikipedia and the Austrian National broadcaster ORF [German language] give us credit, despite the blatent lies that the Rockstar PR machine spews out.

Then again, it’s a crap game, as the developers knew all along, so perhaps it’s no great loss that I’m not officially connected with it.

On top of this it's rumored that a yet unnamed (well as far as we know) gaming assosiation is attemping to take action and "fix" the case of the missing credits. More on that soon.
