Rockstar reveals Manhunt 2 for the Wii

It looks like Reggie was somewhat successful as Rockstar Games announced today that a sequel to Manhunt, which could be summed up (by Jack Thompson) as a murder simulator, is going to grace the Wii (and some other Sony systems, we don't know, we weren't paying attention to that). The game is being developed by Rockstar Toronto, who recently did The Warriors.

In the first game, you could kill your opponents in three differing ways, each progressively more sinister and violent, with any given weapon. Weapons ranged from plastic bags to shards of glass and, considering the Wii's control scheme, could we expect to have to mimic slicing someone's throat with a broken bottle or some such other object using the Wiimote?
