Here’s a couple of Manhunt 2 previews, one from Computer and Video Games right here and another from GameSpot, both of them covering the PS2 version. This means you won’t find any control related details in them, but you will find a ton of info regarding the gameplay and features. Check out the quotes below I took from both of them and check out the links for the full mamma-jamma’s:

From Computer and Video Games:

Combat is much more visceral than before, here sporting an over-the-shoulder Resident Evil 4-style camera for sparring against testy nutters. Most of the time you’re better off taking the quiet approach; grabbing the nearest, carefully laid-out syringe and poking some poor sod in the neck by sneaking from behind.

As before there are various levels of gore in your executions. The longer you hold down the attack button the more gruesome your kill, ranging from quick and efficient hasty kills to stomach-churning gruesome dispatches.

And here’s a bit from GameSpot’s look at the game:

The stealth and exploration components have been tweaked a good amount, too. You’ll need to make your own shadows, as we saw in the Honey Pot level, which can be done by breaking light sources. One new wrinkle on hiding is that shadows are no longer a free ride. Whereas you could hide out indefinitely in the shadows in the original game, it’s now possible for enemies to see you if you’re not quick. A random system is being implemented to ensure that players are always on their toes. Enemies looking into shadowy areas now have a chance to spot you. In the event they do, you’ll still have a chance to hide, thanks to a minigame where you have to quickly match onscreen controller prompts. If you do it fast enough, you’ll remain hidden. If not, prepare for some melee. The new element in exploration we saw was a sequence where Daniel sneaks through an air duct, which switched to a first-person mode as he worked his way through the airways in the Honey Pot level.

Sounds great, I can’t wait to check out this game on the Wii. I remember playing the 1st one and I never got too far into it, but using the Wii controls should be a ton of fun this time around.
