Trivia:

Two "boss" characters who didn't make it into the game are the Scarecrow and Binbag. The Scarecrow was meant to be the former leader of the Smileys who had his title taken from him after he was defeated by Piggsy, whom he held a vendetta against. When he was not in his costume, the Scarecrow was nothing more than a drunken, gibbering tramp, who can be seen in the game when Cash is up against the Innocentz. Binbag was to be the leader of the Lost (a gang which was not used) and dressed from head to toe in black garbage bags.

Goofs:

Continuity: In the level "Graveyard Shift", Cash uses a sawed-off double-barreled shotgun. In the cut-scene that ends the level, Cash is carrying a pump-action military-style shotgun.

Quotes:

Smileys #3:Our guest of honor certainly is making himself scarce tonight.

Pretty Damn Good... But Some Flaws

ManHunt is a very good, gory game that I enjoyed very much, but it has some flaws, which I will list here:

1. When you have to fight somebody in hand-to-hand combat, the controls are sluggish and hard.

2.It is pretty hard to sneak around.

3. Confusing until you figure out what the hell is going on.

Now I will list the good points:

1. When you execute somebody using stealth, it is awesome.

2. Very cool main character.

3. Action-packed and thrilling.

4. Cool weapons and items.

And the list goes on and on...
