Rumor: Manhunt 2 being pulled from Target stores
This has yet to be confirmed, but some Target insiders are claiming that the retailer will not be selling copies of Manhunt 2, the controversial Rockstar game. The rumor was started by a Target employee at the Evil Avatar forums, and was later supported at GoNintendo by an electronics specialist at the retail chain.
Adding further basis to the rumor, Target's website states that the PSP version of Manhunt 2 is not available in stores, although it can be purchased online. The PS2 and Wii versions are not even listed on the site.
If this rumor turns out to be true, it won't be good news for Rockstar, especially if other retailers follow suit. As of now, though, these rumblings apply to Target stores only.

I work in electronics at Target and I don't know of us to be pulling the game because we never got the game to begin with. Don't know if that's confirmation or anything, I just figured we were not getting it as we don't have every Wii game as it is. Zack and Wiki being one that immediately comes to mind.
