Rockstar’s controversial game Bully has been renamed to “Canis Canem Edit“, Latin for “Dog Eat Dog”. That’ll sure make the game less controversial and more appealing. All the critics will magically be silenced.
Naturally, Rockstar didn’t mention why the title has been changed, but maybe this had something to do with it. And this, and this too.

1I don’t get all the fuss about this game … and I don’t even like RockStar. What is really crazy is that no one has even seen that much of the game let alone played it. Anyway the idea seems fresh and the game actually looks interesting. The article you gave links to was dead on … here is what I found really interesting:
“”History is littered with forms of expression that have been considered ‘controversial,’ only to be welcomed into the fabric of society as valuable creative expression a few years later,” he said, adding that in the case of gaming, the critics rarely know anything about the games they condemn.”
Can anyone say Rap/Hip-Hop/gangtsa rap … man remember when there was so much of an uproar about rap … now you can’t go anywhere or watch anything that isn’t influenced by it and rap shows no signs of slowing down. The world is indeed a very very bizarre place. I can’t believe I am saying this considering how much I hate GTA but damn people should leave Rockstar alone and repsect the first ammendment and capitalism … the foundations of this great country (USA).
