I don't know if you have heard this, but it came to me as a shock.

Yesterday my dad was driving home from work, listening to the radio. He knows how much i like BULLY and calls me 'BULLY-Boy' because I'm on it so much.

Anyway, he was lsitening to music and the 'Info-Track' (Gives you important news and traffic info) came on. As it went into news it said 'Rockstars new game to be banned by Blair?' And this is my dads quotes not mine. he said they said it was 'Full of violence and setting bad examples for children' (Even though its a 15 O.o) and that 'Mr Blair is going to do his most to have it banned by Saturday.'

I for one think this is stupid as NONE of those people have even played it and, it is only a game. They should be more worried about games like GTA where you can blow peoples head off, cut them up using a helicopter blade and see their limbs flying up in the air when they are blown up.

Looks like if you don't get your game by today, the 'Government' is going to get it banned.

Now this is my quote; 'What a load of crap, how can they have a rant about it if they have never even PLAYED a video-game and havn't even seen BULLY in action?'

Seems like politicans round the world are jumping on the bully bandwagon.

By them trying to ban it all they are doing is making more people want it.

It's so funny how games like Scarface dont get any attention but because this is made by Rockstar and its in a school.... I swear some parents and lawyers need to come down and play the game before jumping to conclusions.

Dosn't Blair have more imporant things on his mind? He was the one who made the arabians mad on the UK by co-operating with Bush.

Yes I know this thread is like two years old, but it isn't closed so I figured I could reply lol. Anyway, there is some guy here in America who has been trying to get the game banned from stores here before it had even been released. And guess what, even though it's been out for awhile now, he's STILL trying to get it banned! How crazy is that? This guy is a lawyer and it seems like he could find more important things to do with his time, but I guess not.

Yup. It is a lost battle for that guy. Maybe we'll all get lucky and he'll lose lots of money from suing all those people and companies?
