The Game: BULLY

I was first introduced to this game by my Best Friend. She was obsessed with this game and had been playing for months. One day she finally convinced me to play and from the beginning I was in for something I'd never expected.




As you can see from the intro this game is not for children. The game was rated T for teens as it deal with strong controversial issues in this game. The premise of the game entails a boy named Jimmy Hopkins who is left at boarding school by his mother. His purpose is to work his way up the social ladder dealing with bullies, girls, teachers and any other obstacle that come his way. Jimmy is a reckless teen boy trying to rule the school with every task thrown at him.

Bully was released on October 17, 2006 for the Playstation 2. The game however was banned from a few countries, two being Brazil & United Kingdom, for heightened sexuality placed in the game. In Bully, Jimmy can not only kiss girls, but boys as well. Not only is sexuality present in this game, but a high rating for violence.

Although the game had a circle of controversy, the game was quite successful transferring over into the Wii and Xbox. It's also considered one of the games to play before you die. I would have to agree!
