Rockstar, pissin on our moral since 1997

Looks like the controversy about Bully was a bit premature, as Hopkins obviously prefers to make love, not war. This is not "Hot Coffee" by any stretch of the imagination -- just kids kissing.
Now before everybody goes crazy, depending on your moral sensibilities, there are two videos after the break. Gamebrink's version is quick like a band-aid, with one smooch session. Of course, GayGamer's version has Jimmy going back for seconds -- nope, thirds -- wait, fourths.
The game is rated T and the box clearly states that there are "sexual themes." Players can also go through Bully without ever having to kiss a boy if they don't want to. Hopefully, the negative hype about Bully is so played out that this surprising content won't cause a frenzy about youth corruption or some such nonsense. Once again, it's kissing -- everyone stay calm.

BAN THIS SICK FILTH NOW BEFORE IT CORRUPTS ARE YOUTH!!!!
but seriously only a T, I thought it had violence and swearing in it?
How many U.S. States are going to ban this game now though, just think of the free PR they will get on the news.

The Sims allowed gay sex and gay marriage years ago. Mind you, Jack Thompson attacked The Sims too.

Y'know, after dealing with a whole day of BSOD's and faulty driver downloads, this made me ROFL! Thank you, stardestroyer, for ending my day on a happy note when I needed it.

You can have violence and language in a T-rated game, just not the same degree as in an M-rated game.

With outright lies, no less.

Somebody should send a long, angry letter to Thompson that they bought the game because he said it was a "Columbine simulator," and they're extremely disappointed and mad at him that it isn't like that at all and doesn't even include any guns.

Does anyone really take this quack seriously? I mean the amount of bizarre fuck-ups that have been documented make one wonder if he has any such credibility left beyond what he can paste onto a bar napkin.
