Uh oh. D, I think you should start seriously worrying about the safety of your family, especially those that are old or defenseless.

Hey, how is the dodgeball stuph in the game???
Have you gotten to that in the game yet?

Dodgeball is in Gym class. It's the second gym class I think. It's a fun little mini game. Basically, there are 6 people, 3 on each side. You control who ever has the ball. There is a button to dodge, a button to throw, and a button to pass.

Yeah, it's pretty much just a minigame. Not like some organized sport or something. Pretty much everything in Bully is a minigame, but almost all of them are actually fun. I dig the art class quite a bit.

I hate the art one. I like english, and chemistry.

English rules, but the last one kicked my ass. I couldn't figure out what the main six-letter word was supposed to be. And I'm pretty darn good with this sort of thing.

So, ummm.....when will Jack Thompson jump all over this one?

Wow, that's pretty gay. Kinda pedophillic too.

I can't see JT raising a fuss about this. He's too fucking politically correct, not to mention liberal. I'm quite sure he wouldn't touch it. And that's odd, I don't know how one would get the option for that. I've had plenty of interactions with males and nothing like that has ever even come up as an option.

Maybe you're not acting gay enough to attract the right guy.

I'm sorry Que. You just arn't hot enough.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #49 on:** Monday, October 23, 2006, 08:26:03 PM »

Aw shucks. I guess I'll just have to be satisfied with the attractive young redhead.

I knew it would only be a matter of time w/ JT, since he pretty much is taking his crusade against Rockstar and everything that they do, since the GTA games and all.

JT talking about the boy-on-boy content in Bully:

Quote

The Entertainment Software Rating Board surprised some people last month when it issued a T-for-Teen rating for the game. The content descriptors listed for the game on the ESRB's Web site are crude humor, language, use of alcohol and tobacco, violence, and sexual themes. When asked about the boy-on-boy make-out sessions, the ESRB told GameSpot, "That content was considered in the assignment of the rating."

Thompson addressed ESRB president Patricia Vance in an e-mail he claimed to have sent to "every major news organization in America and the UK," as well as a host of lawmakers and industry representatives.

"Dear Ms. Vance," Thompson wrote, "We just found gay sexual content in Bully, as Jimmy Hopkins makes out with another male student. Good luck with your 'Teen' rating now, Patty."

Mark my words, absolutely nothing will come of this. I'm completely surprised that he even made the attempt. Fucking moron. I guess it just proves that being in bed with the liberals doesn't keep you from trying to stretch your reach elsewhere when everything you've tried to do already has completely failed.

JT as a MK: Armageddon combatant?!?!!?

sirean_syan · « **Reply #53 on:** Wednesday, October 25, 2006, 04:27:50 PM »

Heh. Maybe someone will pull him off of Rockstar for a while now.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #54 on:** Wednesday, October 25, 2006, 06:05:42 PM »

If only the *devs* had added that. Then there'd be hope.

Now *that* would've been hilarious!

What do you think JT's Fatality would be, Que....?

I think if a game JT wants pulled off the shelf doesn't end up pulled, then he'll perform a Babality!

See Jack Tompson in action... and get lose.

It's not the most exciting video (I mean, real court hearing are pretty slow, so yeah), but it's nice to see this happen.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #57 on:** Sunday, October 29, 2006, 06:34:35 PM »

Yeah, I enjoyed watching it. Nice to hear him get called on most of his shit. I enjoyed the comments about his unprofessionalism. He just proves that he's actually as hotheaded and idiotic "live" as he is in the letters he writes. Idiot. I hope he gets stomped to death by a moose.

Bully is coming to the X360 and The Wii w/ new content and whatnot.

Here's some details.

Bully's Scholarly Additions

Release date, pricing and bonus features revealed. First screenshots to boot!
by Hilary Goldstein

January 4, 2008 - Rockstar Games is best known for its Grand Theft Auto series, but Wii and Xbox 360 owners will soon discover another worthy title in its library. Bully: Scholarship Edition arrives on Wii and 360 on March 4 in the US and March 7 in the UK. Both version are priced at $49.99 and include the original game along with a bevy of extras.

Developed by Rockstar Vancouver, Bully puts you in the shoes of precocious Jimmy Hopkins. Stuck in Bullworth Academy, a stuffy private school for youths, Jimmy must deal with the common problems of youth. There are various cliques from jocks to geeks to socialize with (or avoid), girls to woo, classes to ditch, teachers to mock. This is a game of social networking and in that way a tongue-and-cheek attempt at simulating adolescent life in school.

Learning how to deal with the various cliques is crucial for your survival.

Added to the original PS2 version are eight new missions, four new school classes (biology, music, math and geography), new unlockable items and clothing, new two-player offline minigames, new awards and, of course, Achievements.

With Bully: Scholarship Edition just two months away, we should get an in-depth look at the game soon. Until then, you can check out our review of the PS2 version to get an idea of what to expect when Bully: SE hits shelves in March.

Nice, that's one more inch towards the necessary five good SP games before I buy a Wii.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #60 on:** Saturday, January 05, 2008, 04:12:02 PM »

Gee, I'm so glad I bought it on PS2 now. I'm really tired of it paying to *not* buy a game until a year later. Maybe I'll just fucking stop.

So true, Que.

It really seems like all these big-name games, one system gets it first as an exclusive. Then, a year later -- another system gets a port, but w/ additional special content.

Jade Empire, Fable, Gears Of War -- all of these games went from being some X-Box system game, then got a PC port around a year or two later. And, the PC ports were also given Special Editions w/ a little bit of new extra content.

It seems to be a new fad -- an annoying one, albeit.

Seriously, what's next? Mass Effect: Special Edition going to be announced for the PC soon?

It's exactly like what the music scene is doing of late, too. Popular-selling albums (like Akon's Konvicted, Amy Winehouse's Back In Black, Timberlake's FutureSex/LoveSounds), then a year later they release a "Deluxe" Edition which is the same album plus FOUR new bonus tracks. How annoying. Couldn't they just release a damn EP instead w/ just the new tracks???
