Speaking of advertising.

An anti-bullying group is up in arms about the new Rockstar Games er, game.

It's called... Bully.

And it looks really cool.

Does that make me a bad person?  I don't really think so.  Also, it doesn't really look like the game's main character is actually a bully and not very much information has been released about it.  So this might be a whole lot of freaking out over nothing.

Shocker.

I wish there was more information about it, because now I'm really curious. At first I thought it was a case of bullied vs. bullies and then I realised it took place in a reform school, which makes me wonder what the lead character is doing there to begin with.

This article has more info. And it makes it sound EVER COOLER. I'm jazzed -- it's been a while since I've been really excited about a new game.

Thanks for the link! It sounds pretty awesome (I wish I had a PS2!). I love the element of choice that determines whether Jimmy is good or bad. But I can't believe people actually worry it's a "Columbine simulator!" That's... quite a way to put it.
