Developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games, Manhunt was originally released for the PlayStation 2 in November 2003, followed by Windows and Xbox versions in April 2004. It's a third-person stealth game that places you in the role of James Earl Cash, a death row inmate who is "executed" but secretly revived by a sinister director named Lionel Starkweather. Starkweather forces Cash to participate in a series of brutal snuff films, where he must survive and eliminate violent criminal gangs sent to hunt him down in the decaying, post-industrial city of Carcer City.
