3 out of 5 stars HIJINKS at there best.....   July 8, 2008
For those of you who dont know (or dont care) Bully is a pass over from the PS2 version called CANIS CANEM EDIT meaning 'dog eat dog' i belive.

Graphics: nothing special, then again they are awfull for the 360. just polished over PS2 graphics, some items in the game even look bad enough to say N64 era of game-play.

story-line: not wanting to spoil anything so i wont. the story-line is just what you can expect from Rock star, a "no-brained, no class, nothing new, nill origionality" story-line (but, hey most games nowdays are just cheep copys of older games)

gameplay: whilst this game is fun, the fighting is funny and you can learn some pretty nasty moves to use on your opponents, the ways you travel are fun and fast. The control system is very well put into place and is easy to remember an use. this game can suck up hours at a time, is VERY addictive and funny, it's just a toned down GTA in other words. the classes you attend are also fun and they reward you for completing them (mainly so you dont just ditch them)

Problems: this game has the prime example of trying to do so much it ruins it all. while Arcade games are a witty add on, they are horrible and broken games that really require more luck than skill to win. the GO-KART races also have there fair share of mess-up's in other words if you try and ram an opponent to one side.....you will be the one spinning out of control.

the game has some annoying glitches at times and can also crash (VERY RARELY IN MY CASE) but some problems can arise when your trying to escape a law enforcer and they just lag and appear next to you and catch you. also during cut-scenes they can be ruined by a character glitching through a desk or turning invisible and even in my most bizzare encounter the NPC fell over at the start of the scene.

also the "passout at 2am" is the worst idea they had, if your trying to go to all classes and do missions it's bearly possible here's what it's like

8am--wake up (no point starting a mission, school starts in 1 hour)
9am--first class
11:30am--class over (again no point in a mission)
1pm--second class
3:30pm--class over
3:30pm too 11pm-- mission (maybe fit in about 2 or 3)
11pm--curfew starts (you can carry on with missions, but cops chase you)
1am--screen starts going blury
2am--passout (probs get robbed)

now think that 1 in-game-hour is only about 3-5 mins (if that)
you just get too stuck for time and you end up giving up doing classes or errand missions etc etc (and dont get me started on doing jobs etc)

over all iv had over 18 hours play time on this game and still loveing it.

i would highly recomend to anyone who's not yet old enough for GTA or to anyone looking for a addictive game!

wierd carrot-



4 out of 5 stars It's a game you should get but don't have to get....   June 18, 2008
I think everyone has notice this game is just the school version of GTA. In order words its for kids who have parents that closely view the type of games that they play therefore those kids won't have the pleasure of playing GTA and this game is probably as close as it gets to GTA.

Don't get me wrong this game is great, enjoyable and will last quite a while but if you own a 360 and don't have a large sum of money to spend then the obvious choice is to buy GTA 4 over Bully.

3 out of 5 stars Bully - Average Game   April 28, 2008
 1 out of 5 found this review helpful

I bought this game because I thought it looked like a lot of fun. It does resemble the older Grand Theft Auto games but does not have the same feeling to it. The graphics were nothing special, seemed like they belonged to a PS2.

The gameplay was not what I was expecting, yes, you are a bully but you make friends with nerds and geeks. Not what I would expect a bully to do! The story line is very predictable, sound track is naff and the game itself tends to become boring after an hour of gameplay. Its very very repititive.

Your bully needs to sleep once a day to keep him fresh for the following day. This means you cant stay out as long as you want but are strictly limited by in game time.

Overall, I would reccommend that you rent this game before buying it. I bought it and never completed it! I got bored and traded it in for a new game. This is just my opinion, maybe its one of these games that the younger you are, the more enjoyable it will be!



5 out of 5 stars What crashes? What glitches? Bad graphics?   April 2, 2008

Well, if you've got live dont worry about the crashes. I bought this yesterday and the update when I started it up has worked fine, sometimes freezes for a few seconds before you kiss girls but thats all. And Ive got a HD TV and the graphics look really good to me!

Other that that, a brilliant game that every GTA fan will love, I even prefer it to San Andreas. Funny, addictive and varied gameplay. Loads to do, and the achievements are actually good fun to achieve! Buy it!
