The game was announced as Bully. If you remember the "controversies" surrounding "violent video games" in the 2000s, the usual suspects like Jack Thompson came out and declared the game a school shooting simulator before any meaningful details of the game's premise were revealed. The title implied the game is about bullying (which it is), but some took that to mean "Columbine simulator". Some retailers refused to stock the game.

In response, Rockstar changed the name, but only regionally for some reason. "Canis canem edit" is in fact a reference to the saying "dog-eat-dog", or alternatively, "it's a dog-eat-dog world", which is a metaphor for "every man for himself", signifying competition. This itself is a reference to the Latin phrase "canis caninam non est", meaning "dogs don't eat dogs", which was used in 43 BC by Marcus Terentius Varro who used the phrase to compare humans unfavorably to dogs; ie, "dog's aren't as ruthless to each other as we are to other humans". "Canis canem edit" is simply a backtranslation of a phrase related to the original.

"Canis canem edit" was already made to be the motto of Bullworth, long before the name change. If you've played the game, the school having "every man for himself" should be pretty amusing. given the clique system and, you know, the entire plot? It was simply a convenient alternative title they could use instead of the more offensive "Bully".





I find it astonishing someone with Internet access has
A. never heard the phrase "dog eat dog" before
and
B. didn't immediately Google the phrase instead of taking it literally



How many times is the phrase "LA Noir" said in the video game L.A Noir? How many times is "Red Dead Redemption/Revolver" said in any of the Red Dead games? I presume you also have no idea what these names mean, and think the names are stupid.
Too long, didn't read.
