BBFC to come under fire for Manhunt 2 approval?

“The grudging nature of the BBFC’s statement, that it now has “no alternative” but to grant the title a certificate, coupled with the fact the body went to the High Court, twice rejected the game itself and tried to overturn the original judgment of the VAC leaves the organisation with its credibility bruised More crucially, the BBFC’s role as a body which classifies games is now under scrutiny. There has been confusion among consumers as to why there are often two certificates on UK games, from the BBFC and European body PEGI. Dr Tanya Byron is expected to deliver her report into video games, violence and children later this month and I understand she favours handing the job to PEGI,” he added. “The BBFC’s dogged fight to ban Manhunt 2, even though industry figures lined up to defend the title, might come back to haunt it.” - Darren Waters, editor of BBC News’ technology index

All this trouble over a game that’s not worth the nonsense, not in the least.
