Images
File:Manhunt2gameplay.jpg has a rather poorly worded rationale. Fix this up please. The other image is fine.

 * I still find the image to be somewhat weak. I would appreciate if you could fill in some details of what specifically requires it to be understood. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 20:52, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Gameplay
Grammar and wording have notable issues here. "The player assumes the role of either Daniel or Leo" is stated without explaining who Daniel or Leo are or if there's any difference between them in gameplay. "the player character must approach an enemy from behind, undetected, and kill them, while also incorporating gun play and brawling." implies that you have to brawl and shoot while executing, which I think is not intended. "While out of combat, players must hide from enemies by simply staying out of their point of view or hiding in the shadows." should be part of the next paragraph, "also" is unnecessary in the sentence "has also been tweaked from the original", and "original" should likely read "previous game", etc.

In short, it appears that all the necessary information is here, but the presentation is lacking. I would recommend rearranging this entire section as follows:
 * 1) First brief paragraph explains core mechanics.
 * 2) Second paragraph explains stealth/non-combat and how it has changed from Manhunt 1.
 * 3) Third paragraph explains execution/combat and how it has changed from Manhunt 1.

Finally, something should be said about the fact that the execution levels were previously relevant to a score system but are no longer.


 * Fixed it somehow, but I instead divided the gameplay into 4 parts to make reading easier. 180.190.246.252 (talk) 09:47, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry I got busy, but I finally removed the excessive "also" word. Fixed some of the grammar too and added some stuffs.180.191.224.93 (talk) 11:01, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

Please change the use of 'player' to 'players' (to better justify the use of 'they') and adjust the text accordingly. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 20:54, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Plot
Without knowing anything about Manhunt's story, I'm just curious if the plot can't be tightened up. I have no specific qualms, just legitimately curious if it's possible. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 20:52, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Development
I see one spot that badly needs a citation, and templated it. What is an "SCE event"? I've corrected the other wording issues here myself.
