Rockstars Bully Delayed

Bully, Rockstars new action game has been delayed from November release to Feb 06 release date. Rockstar has stated that this is not because of protests but rather development concerns. They feel thay the need more time to develop the game. Rockstar’s “Bully” Web site describes the game as follows: “As a troublesome schoolboy, you’ll laugh and cringe as you stand up to bullies, get picked on by teachers, play pranks on malicious kids, win or lose the girl, and ultimately learn to navigate the obstacles of the fictitious reform school Bullworth Academy.”

    You must be the most gullible person ever born. You believe Bully was pulled for the “creative process” and not because of the burgeoning protest. Take-Two is the company that said it did not put Hot Coffee into GTA: SA, that a modder did it. Duh.

    Technically, for us to be gullible, we would have to have state a belief one way or another on the topic and not simple report what the companies website states. Then again, you might not have been referring to the people who wrote it but rather people who read it and believe it. I am interested in whatever news you do have on the game Bully, as your references to the game being ‘pulled’ seems to infer that they have stopped development, instead of adding time to the development cycle, which our post infers. Now I find the subject of violence in video games an interesting one, if someone is deranged enough to act out acts of violence they have seen in a movie/video game, then I have one question. What the hell are they doing unsupervised in our society/ or anybody else’s? Jack you obviously have some success with your GTA:SA campaign, what difference does the 18+ rating make to the 17+ rating? I am not sure if you are aware but Australia has no 18+ rating for video games, so after hot coffee was found the game was banned in Australia, do you think America should not have games for adults? Just interested.

    I wanted to play Bully since i first heard about it also. Anyway you were the one that said you would give $10,000 to charity but didn’t. So we should believe Take-Two not you. Get a life.

    Oh also Mr. Thompson, Bully wasn’t even out yet so it technically it wasn’t “pulled.” Duh.

    man bring just bring out the fuckin game games only have an influence over the fucking weak and retarded minds of some little fuckers so i say fuck them gettin their knickers in a twist its a game get over it

    To all the campaigners who wish to abolish ‘Bully’ you all need to do some more of your ‘so-called’ research. All games and movies have specific age limits (that are clearly specified on the packaging) based on what age groups are legally allowed to play the game. One protest by most campaigners is that kids will still play these games. Well mister uppity-arse politician your laws specify that if a juvenile plays a game out of their age limit (and of course by campaigners logic get mind warped) then it is negligence of the parents or guardians and this goes back to being the campaigners fault for not keeping society in the know.

    Who’s fault is that the people who make the games; that is for the certain age limits or the dumbass parents who by it for em then blame the makers…..

  13. Colton Silcox Says:

    I beleive tahet we should be allowed to play everything we want if we are old enough. because immature kids that are 9 are going to try to repeat what they do by causing a teacher out and not even no what there saying and want to flush a kids head down the toilet. So to make it short if your 17 or older you can play it but if you arent over 17 you shoudlnt plat

  16. Dumbest thing ever heard Says:

    Man this is so stupid I haven’t heard anything about “columbine simulator” and I don’t see bullies running around with AK’s trying to get out of school before the police arrive and then go to rendovous point to commit suicied while taping everything. Now that I think about it if these things are so real how come battle Vietnam games don’t get bad ratings I mean I buy the outfit for xbox360 and it’s rated M I mean WTF really it envolves people dying but is based loosely on the Axis Allies war and it gets a mature rating because you kill and burn natzis (communists only like natzis anyways). But real war strategy games like battlefield Vietnam and I am shure other war games suddenly are rated teen. I bet that the rating department looks over the fact that IT IS SUPER REAL! People protest about how real this game is with its special graphics and schoolhouse setting. But clearly the fact that when in war games where you can sign in the army and probably start shooting foreigners minus theres no retry. WHICH FOR THE ASSES AT THE RATING DEPARTMENT IN MY OPINION IS ABOUT AS REALY AS ANY GAMES HAVE GOTTEN!!! I mean with Iraq there could maybe already be one (im not checking) battlefield Iraq rated T for teen. For those of you who have read all of this I will get to the point. With those stupid protesters whining about games like this in the hands of children but suddenly Battlefield Vietnam is good for teens but I see no complaints. Also theres no indication to what you do in the bully game envolves being bullied or being top bully.
