Rockstar's Bully Comes Under Fire Once Again

Despite being moved back to April 2006, Rockstar's Bully remains one of the most controversial titles of the moment - with the game now the subject of an emotive petition from the mother of a teenager who committed suicide after being bullied.

Rochelle Sides has addressed her online petition, which has 369 signatures at the time of writing, to Rockstar Games president Sam Houser, asking him to "reconsider the release of this game."" "We would like for you to understand the ramifications of your soon to be released video game titled 'Bully'," the petition begins, before going to reveal a number of US statistics on bullying - including the fact that at least 16 children commit suicide each year due to bullying.
