After nearly six weeks of silence since UK's Manhunt 2 ban, Rockstar has filed for a hearing with the Videogame Appeals Committee, an entity with the power to overturn the existing ruling by the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification).

A date will be set for a hearing, in which the VAC panel will view demonstrations of the game while weighing each side's arguments. I believe Rockstar's argument is something along the lines of, "At least you know that if another Hot Coffee is unlocked in Manhunt, a bit of consenting intercourse will pale in comparison to all the crazy, bloody murdering."
