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 (please log in to view the image) (please log in to view the image)
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
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.

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.
