I'm genuinely not saying this to cause controversy, and DEFINITELY not defending this "game," but can someone tell me why this game is wrong but Manhunt 2 is okay?

Its the general motives involved!

In Manhunt ur quite a disturbed individual and you carry out tasks on a number of targets...also like GTA you have the freedom to attack any and everyone.

Where as this game is out right racist targeting Muslims only! Its like someone creating a Nazi game and ur job is to kill off the worldwide Jewish community!

u understand now?

From previous forum posts, I'd took you as being more intelligent than this schnide!

In Manhunt 2 you don't go around targeting one race or one religion or one group of anything where as this game is clearly intended to be racist.

To be honest, the media has every right to jump on gaming for this one.
Hoping stupidity will be cured soon

You did? What posts were you reading?

(Seriously though, cheers)

Manhunt 2 has you assume the role of a killer, which everyone knows is wrong. This game has you assume the role of a murdering racist, which I also hope that everyone knows is wrong although you can't guarantee these things.

So please explain to me, what exactly is the difference? You can play a murderer as long as they're not choosing their targets based on race?
