Awesome, Bully has 100 hours of gameplay!

Why else would a Florida court ask for 100 hours of gameplay footage. I'm pretty sure you can guess what psychologically unstable attorney is behind this.

LOL, nice defense team.
Do they not understand that the average game player is around 27 years old? And that if retailers followed the ratings code, this game could not be sold to a minor anyway?
Shoot, why don't they just shut down the entire internet? I mean after all, there is a lot of adult content on it.
I thought Mr Thompson lost his license..

So had I... I'm also wondering if this judge was hand picked.
This judge is a retard for following thompson's whims...
Uhhh... It's a Rockstar game... Won't it be rated "M" anyways?

It's slated to get T rating! I'm surprised Jack didn't try to get Table Tennis a M rating.
Thompson had previously described the game as a "Columbine simulator," but after reviewers such as our own Ben Kuchera were able to play a complete copy it became clear that the title was more about fisticuffs and schoolyard weapons rather than machine-guns and killing sprees. Not to be outdone, Thompson brought in a giant homemade slingshot to the courtroom, a move which surprised even the judge.

Bah, what a douchebag. What happened to the good ol' days when the blame was put on N.W.A. and Public Enemy?!
that about sums it up.
your avatar was awesome, it's still very fun!=LOL
Not to derail the thread but, like I said, just curious. Neither of these games has managed to hold my interest through to completion so I am wondering if it is the same for others.
I've beaten all 3 GTA's for PS2. Some sandbox titles don't hold my interest for very long tho.
I am just curious about the whole "100 hours of gameplay" / sandbox game model. How many people here have finished GTA:SA? ESIV?

There is also the fact that, while you may not have played all 100 hours, you played the 20 or so that were most interesting to you. If the game was only 20 hours total, maybe the missions they chose to include wouldn't be as interesting to you as the 20 out of 100 total that you did choose. That's what I like about games with more content. More likely to find stuff you want to do.
To me it is like comparing a "choose your own adventure" book to a novel. I would rather play through a game with a great storyline and some explorative points than a game that lets me wander freely and create my own story. But then when it comes to games I am actually kind of obsessive about content to the point that a 12 hour game may take me 18-20 hours. I like to play through a linear game but I also like to make sure that I don't miss anything.
Penny Arcade made a funny comic about forcing raters to play games

Let's band together and bring down Ford, Mercedez, Ferrari, Toyota and the oh-so-heinous Honda.
If these evil satan-spawn being did not create these monstrous creations, we would live in an environment very similar to the garden of eden, and doughnuts wouldn't be fattening. C'mon, a large chunk of metal that moves FAST, what the hell else could it be for other than killing?!?! Look at the statistics! And they even give you a murder-aid that lets you control the direction of the murderbeast!
Sorry, I'd meant to press caps lock and ended up pressing sarc lock.

Actually, in 2005 43,443 people in the U.S. were killed in auto-related accidents. I would venture to guess that this may be a few more than video game related deaths. It is more deaths than most wars that this country has fought.
Maybe my math is wonky or something, but how the hell do they plan on playing through 100 hours of gameplay before Tues.? This is the court system here which has hours of like 8 - 4 with 90 min for lunch. Now unless I'm wrong, they'll be lucky to get in over 20 hours of gameplay by then.

Someone suggested the judge just wanted to make fun of Thompson by setting a requirement that cannot be fulfilled in time to enact a ban upon the game.
Thompson = LOSE.
Suck it you fuckface bum lawyer.
Stupid fucking fear mongering. I remember crap this wouldn't fly 5 years ago.
