I created this forum as a place for people to discuss their feelings on the morality and motives of Bully.
The game is controversial, there's no doubt about that due to the title and the setting, but as of yet there is little information about the motives of Jimmy Hopkins (main charector).
Rockstar games such as Manhunt, Grand Theft Auto and Warriors are heavily focused on violence, which, especially in Manhunt, can seem vulger and unnecessary for people under a certain age to be associated with, but thats just it, these type of games are not aimed at young people.
People unfamiliar with todays video games do not understand that certain games, like certain movies, are created by and for adults.
We are told by Rockstar that the violence in Bully is going to mischievous and comic based. Jimmy wont be going round beating the nearest nerd to a pulp and using stealth mode to emerge from the shadows ready to suffocate the life from some cheerleader with a plastic bag.
It is based on a school, Rockstar Vancouver are trying to emulate school life, and i'm pretty sure its all going to be in good taste, well i'm sure there will be no hidden 'Hot Chocolate' scenes anyway.
I didn't see no uproar for Skool Daze on the old Amiga, people are so petty these days. :roll:
-
Anyone who is registered here
cause they against the game should
be kicked off or somethin'
-
Yeah,i agree!
-
I am 100% against the game! that is exactly why i signed up. so i could post my feelings inside! (only kidding........ GO BULLY!)
-
well i'm sure there will be no hidden 'Hot Chocolate' scenes anyway.
:) HOT COFFEE, not HOT CHOCOLATE lol
-
I agree, this game will be awesome, I am excited by all the features announced so far and can't wait for the game to come out (or even for magazines to start doing in-depth previews).
-
Thought I would resurrect this here....And pose a question.....
Do you think that the controversial aspects of the game will prevent a release of Bully 2 ?
-
I've been concerned about that. I've been considering that if there is a Bully 2 on its way to the shelves, it will most likely recieve some trouble from the JT crew. The first one got some hell I'm sure the second one would recieve the same fate. It also goes the same the other way around. If the first one made it to the shelves then so can the second one.
-
The Grand Theft Auto series is more controversial and look at all the sequels it has.
-
Bully didn't even have that much controversy, only really at first. They thought it would turn into a Columbine type of thing. And it's not like that at all, only if people would play the game for themselves to see. The only other big thing is being able to kiss boys in the game. There's game way worse out there, the only thing that's going to really stop a game from coming out is being rated adult. That's the biggest reason why Manhunt 2 was censored, block it or don't release it. Developers don't want to release adult games.
-
Teenage boys kissing isn't adult content worthy. Lol.
-
Actually, that could have been left out. I mean, how many Gay Boys are gonna be buying Bully anyway ?
-
One of the big concerns was that by playing the game kids would turn into bullies themselves. It was total bullshit and got tossed. People keep pulling the same excuses on games and tend to lose due to their stupidity, but every once in a while a good game is lost.
-
I say who cares, tell your kid to buck up and beat the shit out of a bully. To many kids are scared nowadays and get picked on for no reason.
-
Too many kids believe that running to adults will help, when it doesn't do shit. All it does is make you look like a pussy. People need to start encouraging the beating of bullies. School staff are useless. The just talk, they don't walk.
-
This county's kids are being raised as scared weaklings. Who in there right mind kills themselves because of something someone said about you on the internet? Parents baby kids to much.
-
Shit, around here you're lucky to get off the first two words!
"I'm gonna..WHACK!" -Lights Out-"
-
You got people around here that's like that. But watching them fight is hilarious, it's like chickens running around scared.
-
A lot of the people around here are the "box it out for 20 minutes" type. They're all these wanna be tough guys who think fighting for a half an hour will make them cool. I don't like that. I like to end things quick. I'm not there to show off for a crowd.
-
That's why you suckerpunch them.
-
Those who practice Karate often only need one or two punches.
-
Just put 4 knuckles into the guy's throat and we'll see how tough he is.
-
Haha, I actually find that pretty funny.
-
Or you kick his balls so hard that they fly up and hit his brain like a bell.
-
Exactly. And there are more of them, take one by the throat and threaten to choke him if the others don't let you alone. It's a technique many use when they're getting attacked by a group on the street, at night.
-
True. Just need to be clever enough to grab the right one.
-
I've seen some chicks who carry the tazers or the pepper spray. That shit will just ruin your day.
-
Some might be intelligent enough to headbutt you. It reminds me of what happened to me and three friends the other week-end. We were walking back home as two big guys and a small nervous one crossed our path. They wanted to fight, we calmed the things down, but the angry little fucker wanted to fight. He was like a kid that's bullied everyday but that is all hot when he's got his friends along to protect him... Everything was fine, finally, everyone went his own way without knees broken or teeth stuck in the asphalt.
-
lol I accidentally spray myself with pepper spray once.
Not fun.
-
Funny fact : I originally wrote "thigs (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=thig)" instead of "things"... Lapsus ?
-
Whooo, Chrissy, that gotta hurt so much.
-
Ugh, it did. I'm just glad I wasn't wearing contacts when it happened and didn't get myself directly in the eyes or anything.
My mother had a vial of pepper spray in a drawer. The safety wasn't on, and when I closed it, it started to spray.
-
I knew someone who would have family and friends come over. To mess with them he would snek up behind them and zap them in the ass with a tazer.
-
I'd kill him.
-
That kid sounds Demented.
-
He wasn't a kid, he was 25. You would be standing in the kitchen doing something and talking to somebody, and he just quietly sneaks in and zaps you in the ass. Then he chases you around to scare you. Now for the rest of the visit you're looking over your shoulder for a guy with a tazer.
-
Some Nerds at my school dismounted lighters to get the small part that does electric sparks. Those sneaky bastards use it all the time to make people jump on their chair.
-
Or like he needs his head kicked in.
-
I take that tazer and jam it down his throat, and I'm big enough to do it too.
-
Haha!
-
I would shove it so far down their throats, every time they fart sparks come out their asses.
-
At least until it needed to be recharged.
-

"Dude, you got a sorta... Hole on the back of your pants."
"I know, motherfucker."
-
"Hey, can you bend over a minute? I need a light."
-
"Sorry, no charge left."
-
"Well I'll hook you up to my car battery with some jumper cables!"
-
Then you just see a corpse there, with steam emanating from it and everyone else just walks away.
-
I got that light didn't I?
-
At least, you got the light, yes...
-
One of the popular things in my schools was rubberbands and paper. We shot more paper than we wrote on.
-
We shot more paper than we wrote on.
Epic quote by me, I had a big smile reading this ! Actually, same thing here.
-
You would just see paper bouncing off of everyone. Teachers probably had their desks filled with rubberbands.
-
Some filled their projectiles with mashed chalk. Those were nice coloured clouds, for sure.
-
We took the paper and folded it so many times it became nearly solid. To make it even harder, we applied glue to the tip. I never heard of adding chalk.
-
Forget about chalk, it was a long work to mash it completely, and it often all went out as you shot it.
-
Make little spitballs outta them before you shoot them. Makes a better Impact.
-
We just folded it so that it could be launched from a rubberband. Spitballs you need a straw, or some sort of tube for.
-
Imagine the guy carrying a huge sarbacane in class... Haha.
-
You never fired a spitball with a big rubber band ? The results are awesome.
-
You did ? Congrats. I don't imagine it flying further than ten centimeters...
Sorry, bad metric system again.
-
We did so much stupid and funny shit there. One time there was a fire a mile or two from us, and everyone went outside to watch the smoke rising from it. Suddenly my friend says "you wanna see smoke?" and lights a joint behind the entire school staff and all of the students. The smoke he had going was higher than the fire's. By the time everyone turned around it was gone.
-
Haha, I just laughed my ass off imagining the wise guy lighting up his joint !
-
Reminds me of this bathroom on the ground floor (sub basement) at my HS.....It was where all the guys went to smoke, and probably the safest one for that. It was at the end of this long (200 Foot) hallway, and you could see the smoke rolling out the doorway.
Most teachers didn't bother with it, as it was so remote. If they did on rare occasions, the most they would do is to say, "Put 'em out, Boys", cause there was no way they could take 27 of us to the office all at once.
-
It wasn't even a rolled up joint. He used a piece of a small pipe, tin foil, screening, and a rubberband. Until I noticed he had weed in there, I thought he had a crack pipe!
-
Haha ! Reminds me of some of my friends doing artisanal bongs.
-
I've seen them too....
-
You can't imagine all the shit they stuff in. Weed, tobacco, and things you don't even want to know. Sometimes I'm happy I don't smoke - and I finally found friends who respect my choice.
-
Everyone in my family smokes. I'm the only one who doesn't.
-
I respect you for that.
-
For some reason I just hate the shit. I've been seeing and breathing this crap since I was 4.
-
So, you grew in it ?
-
Yeah. Ever since I was a kid. Even now I still have it going on. They all say how they want to quit, but I'm not even sure for how long they've been saying it.
-
Yeah. Each time I'm worrying for them, my friends say they're not addicted.
-
Don't they all say that? :laugh:
-
Haha, sure. But their seriousness when they say it scares me.
-
Usually they are serious, but the ADDICTION takes over and makes them continue.
-
I've got a lot of willness, but I wonder if I could have enough to stop such an addiction.
-
I'm not sure of being able to do that myself....
-
Oh, it's addicting, all right. Fact, it's called the most addicting drug known to man.
-
The most important thing is that we don't start, bro.
:)
-
I think we're a bit too late for Chuck. That I'm aware of he smokes....I could be wrong. Nicotine is considered to be more addicting than heroin.
-
Whoa, really ?
-
Yeah. I think I saw him mention something about it in another thread, I'm not sure which one though.
