"Bully" by rockstar

this is looking like another headline grabber from the genius game developers/distributors that brought you such gaming delights are Grand Theft Auto, manhunt, max payne as well as the rather rubbish state of emergency

Bully does exactly what it say on the tin...you play as a kid at bullworth academy and the premise of the game is that you go around beating up other kids

here is a couple of screens

OMFG! That looks awesome! 😱

That looks like a very addicting game! When does it come out?

i think its a bad idea.... or a good idea. it will entice kids to bully more, or.... it will give the bullies a way to release their bullying. i'm not sure about it though, theres going to be trouble with this one

hmm.. well manhunt didnt entice kids to slice of peoples heads with piano wire.. but its not good to encourage them anyway.. and its kinda funny that he's wearing a private school uniform (i.e. he probably pays a tuition to go there).. so its kinda wierd that he'd just be a lowly bully.... but the idea is intriguing

Meh, doesn't seem very interesting to me. Seems like another game that will just rely on the controversy it will create, probably won't be particularly good.

could be the case...as was with manhunt which was ultimately quite shallow and repetitive...but then they said GTA was marketed on its controversial content...the media always making a big hoohaa about killing prostitutes which was about one of the most inconsequential and boring parts about the game and funnily enough most people wouldn't even have known to stop and pick up prostitutes in the game if the outraged media hadn't told them about it

Awesome!
I never thought I would get to bully people after I got out of High School,guess I was wrong!

Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought Manhunt was pretty good...

I thought you get revenge on bullies? I don't feel like beating the shit out of other kids, that's not that interesting to me. Besides, I always thought bullying was f***ed up.

I suppose next they'll be making a columbine game.. "now you get to kill the kids and then yourself!"... 🙄... they really need some new game designers... games these days are just getting as silly as those girls gone wild rerun commercials, or those "hook up n have sex" chat lines while I'm trying to watch adult swim >_<

Oh shut up dude, those text things on Adult Swim are funny. 😛 I don't see the whole point of this game, I really expected more especially coming from Rockstar. They should just do a Manhunt 2 & stick to GTA, they'll be fine.

BUMP.

The game's out.

Anyone played it?

I did. Everyone needs to STOP JUDGING THE GAME BEFORE IT COMES OUT.

I actually enjoyed this game, you DO bully, but most of the time, you BULLY the BULLIES. It's COMPLETELY optional if you wanna bully kids.

Your enemies will be Jocks, Bullies, and etc. but most of the time, Nerds and etc will be your ALLIES.

So stop judging the damn game and actually play!

Again infact =SPOILER=

At near end of the game, Jimmy Hopkin(the guy you play) says that he is trying to STOP the BULLYING and bring PEACE to his school.

P.S End of the game, you completely allied with all the stereotypes

Preppies
Jock
Greasers
and etc.

Kinda of want to play this, hopefully they release it on the PC.

It's a tad late right now, but Rockstar totally didnt make Max Payne.

What do you mean by that?

I'm pretty sure they did make Max Payne (1 and 2).

Oh, sorry, they just did the ports of the game

The people who made the game are Remedy, published by GOD (before they went belly up)

Then the published the sequel, but in know ways did they make the games. Just published, and did ports of the games.

Thank you! Everyone is always going arund saying your beating up a bunch of kids, but when you actually play the game you realize that Jimmy is basically interacting, helping and going against certain stereotypes. I actually thought it was a pretty fun game.

Just bought the game.

Played it for like, 10 minutes.

I like it so far. You can definitely tell it was made by Rockstar.

Any other members played this game? Opinions?
