Gore fans in the UK can finally enjoy all the grisly gameplay of Manhunt 2, give or take a few acts of power-drill related violence.

One of last year's most controversial titles, and also one of its best-selling, Manhunt 2 has only just been cleared for release in the UK by the British Board of Film Classification, after being heavily reworked.

The Board had previously turned it down for its "unremitting bleakness and callousness of tone". However, with a few of the more graphic scenes cut out, the game will eventually be released for the Wii, PS2 and PSP on 31 October.
