    Such an underrated classic. Easily the most deserving franchise that deserves a sequel.

    Does it really count as a franchise if there's only one instalment? (Not counting Scholarship Edition.) But, yeah the game deserves sequal.

    There is another critique of billy it’s that in billy Russel is the only boss that freely roams the other bosses only appear at the chapters there in or at final mayhem

    Great video, I agree with all the awards it won aside from “best adult content”, I doubt even the darker beta version of bully had anything more risqué than a gta game

    It's confusing, Scarface and GTA VCS have a lot of death, guns and drugs in them, the other one was a flat out porn game.

    Every time I learn about games like bully, manhunt, POSTAL 2 it makes me think that the 2000s were the freest decade in the world of video games, are there still violent games that have recently been released? Yeah. But they were the few that touched on controversial topics such like bully and Another games have does, Bully was an centimeter away from being considered an 18+ game if they didn't remove mere scenes and details. It's not that I'm a nostalgic and say that the old was good and the new was Bad, but Bully were one of the games where an adolescent could identify better, unlike today with the Sigma male thing, and the LGBT characters in that game were more realistic to the point that you didn't even realize they were gay.

    I think it depends on what you define as "controversial topics" as it can be broad. One the one hand, you have games like Life is Strange gained popularity for touching upon topics like suicide, bullying and exploitation of girls, on the other hand you have games like Battlefield 1 which got high praise for showing an near-authentic, non censored down World War 1 like experience, not shying away from the brutalities of WW1 and the constant cloud of death that stalked innocent young men. Both gained some controversy for entirely different reasons. Personally I am of the belief that any topic (within law) should be allowed to be completely uncensored as the creators see and want to show it off. The darker, and more sensitive the topic, the stronger chance it has to resonate with viewers/players and actually get the film/game out there. Controversy can be a very useful tool for free marketing, if handled right, like Rockstar did with Bully.

    ​@@TheNathanNS Well yes, Games created in the 2010s to the present, for example: LISA, is about a girl in a world where there are only men and a father figure to take care of her so that no degenerate does anything to her. Then you have Hotline Miami that criticizes nationalism and gives an anti-war message, all while showing scenes of rappe, nsfw, torture and among others. Although anyway, most games that try to touch on something Serious... end up being more about Depression and anxiety than anything else, I mean I know it's an equally serious topic to talk about, but it also sort of overvalues ​​it at the same time. It basically ends with: "You missed the point in idolizing them." (like for example Patrick bateman bethside isnt from a game even.)
