Just last week, the ESRB dealt a pretty impressive finishing move to Manhunt 2 from Take Two.

Now, news from Joystiq indicates that in addition to providing ratings for games, they have deemed themselves to be the entity in charge of….. Game Trailers.

It would be great if Manhunt 2 released a trailer that’s so clean it’s rated E for Everyone. Talk about misleading.

Potentially different ratings for the game trailer and the game itself?

The only thing that this bright idea does is mislead people. There’s no way that a game that’s getting an T rating is going to have an M trailer. It’s not possible unless they put crap into the trailer that’s not in the game.

While they’re at it, maybe they could start rating the box art and instruction manual.
