, its predecessor, Grand Theft Auto 5, is giving the internet a brief pause, a calm before the storm if you will, as leaked program database files recently shed light on some scrapped plans.
As spotted by @billsyliamgta on Twitter, the file contains valuable and confidential information that, when run through a debugger, yields references to Grand Theft Auto 4, Midnight Club Los Angeles, Red Dead Redemption 2, and, perhaps more important of all, Bully 2.
The source further notes that the files referenced scrapped content that later made it into the game or were cancelled altogether due to one reason or another.
Bully was one of the biggest surprise hits of 2006, outdoing sales expectations. It was the debut project of, at the time, a relatively new acquisition by Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar Vancouver (formerly Barking Dog Studios). Not long after it came out, Rockstar repackaged it for the Nintendo Wii, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 with the help of Mad Doc Studios. Following the acquisition, Rockstar renamed the studio to Rockstar New England, which promptly received the greenlight from Rockstar to work on Bully 2.
