Dan Houser Eager for Bully Sequel

The lead writer of Grand Theft Auto V, Dan Houser revealed that he would love to see a sequel to the controversial game from Rockstar Bully.

In a recent interview, Houser said he'd be happy to see a sequel to the game he wrote in 2006. "I know I want to," he said. "Well, hopefully, you never know. There's a lot of directions I could go with that one, it's funny."

Rumours about a sequel to the game have been floating around for years. Take-Two filed a new trademark for the franchise earlier this year, which tells us the publisher is not abandoning the series just yet.

Houser quickly dismissed the idea of Bully's main protagonist Jimmy Hopkins could appear as an adult in the GTA franchise. "I never saw him as being that level of degenerate," he said. "I saw him as a bad teen, because he comes from a tough home, who could go either direction. He's not going to be a carjacker. He's too white collar for that already. He's at a s*** private school, but he's going to end up being really happy because he's at the worst bit of his life, or being a sort of messed up white collar doofus."

"He was an unpleasant soul, but he had a heart. To some extent you could say the same was true of [Grand Theft Auto IV's] Niko in a bizarre way. But [Jimmy's] not trying to burn down the school, he's more trying to stand up to injustice."
