2,132 - RUSSELL LOVES TO SMASH THINGS!!!
2,133 - Mandy is a looker
2,134 - Seth Kolbe is mentally ill (Anger problems)
2,135 - Seth Kolbe is probably gay (just a hunch)
2,136 - Jimmy Hopkins birthday is August 31 (he doesn't have an official birthday, so I made him one   ;D
2,137 - The Tenements have been unsafe to live in for years as evidenced by floor collapse
2,138 - You can smash up all the stuff in the warehouse and no one gives a shit. It even re-spawns so you can smash it every day for months on end
2,139 - I can whip up birthdays for all the main characters if you ask. They're not Rockstar official though

Bonus (not in count): April 21 is the best day of April. April 21 kicks more ass than Jimmy Hopkins with a Spud Gun. If they got in a fight April 21 would win.

2,140 - Spud Guns are awesome at taking out prefects, cops, or that fucking bitch in the blue dress in town
2,141 - The summer at the end of the game is awfully long. Global warming, anyone?
2,142 - Nothing ages in Endless Summer. The story line might be 1984-1985, but if you play long enough it might be fucking 1996 and yet Jimmy Hopkins is still 15 and all the characters are still the same

I say 1980s, and here's why:

1- THE CARS. The newest cars look 1980s, and the oldest look 50s and 60s - and there's a lot of 50s and 60s cars around. If the game took place in 2006-2007, that would mean the newest cars in the game are 20-25 years old, and the oldest cars are about 50 years old. There isn't a town in America where there are absolutely no cars newer than 20 years old. The newer cars (mid 70s and newer) are often seen in Bullworth Vale and the town center, whereas the older metal (pre mid 70s) are often seen in New Coventry and the industrial area. A date of, say, 1984-1985 would mean that the newer cars in the game are really newer cars, and the older cars are just old cars, not the classics they are today.

2- The cliques. The "greaser" ideal had its peak in the 80s, as did the "preppy" clique ideal. Nerds and jocks are also archetypal 80s cliques.

3- Technology. Arcade games are common. In 2006, arcade games weren't nearly as ubiquitous as they were in the 1980s. And while the games have graphics that are too good to be 80s, the concepts were definitely around back then. In addition, there's not a cell phone in sight in the game, the computers in the library are VERY old (early 80s or even 70s!) and about the only new technology in the entire town is a laptop in a basement.

4- Other elements around the town. For instance Happy Volts Asylum would never be open as late as 2006. That's a mid-20th century asylum that would have been badly outmoded by the 1980s. And badly outmoded it was. I would imagine HVA wouldn't have lasted past the end of the 1980s.

I envision Bully to have taken place in 1984-1985 school year. I have a whole fan storyline I wrote long ago about the history of Bullworth and Bullworth Academy.

I'd make it where you could make a run for it during lawn mowing. Also where you could escape if a prefect/cop grabbed you on red wanted meter, but it would be more difficult than escaping from yellow or orange. Also I'd take out the very few post-1980s things so the universe could be a perfectly 1980s world, as it 98% is now.

The adult female townsperson.
Bending over and shoeing me off... I beat the shit out of them when they do that.

Yes, she's the meaning of the word "bitch". I hate her too.

But I'll pick my own choice... Seth Kolbe, the prefect.

Jack Thompson couldn't have gotten the game banned outright, there is such a thing as freedom of expression. However said content would have made the game M rated, if not AO rated and made it much more controversial. And sales of the game wouldn't have been nearly as high.

RUSSELL SMASH!

Seth Kolbe: Graduated at age 18 in 1985. Attempted to join police, but they wouldn't take him because of anger issues, and he worked odd jobs for next few years, getting fired multiple times. Died in a car crash at age 27 on May 26, 1994.

Probably several minutes. It's very tense being on red. Unrealistic too, makes Jimmy look like a sissy when the prefects, cops, and especially townsfolk can just take Jimmy down with one hit whereas on yellow/orange he has a chance to escape. For me, it was about 95-100% chance to escape on yellow, and 85-95% on orange.
