Doin' some swirlin' in Bully - Image 1 


Bully would have to be one of the most innovative games we've seen last year. It's a sandbox action game - along with many others - but being set in the fictional Bullworth Academy is pure genius. For those who missed it on the PS2, Rockstar Games just announced that Bully: Scholarship Edition will be hitting the Xbox 360 and Wii.

The game puts players in the shoes of Jimmy Hopkins, a 15-year old suffering from a broken family . After his mother married his fifth stepfather, Jimmy was thrown to a new school while his folks enjoy their honeymoon. Thing is, Bullworth Academy's alma matter seems to be about turning students into criminals and corrupted politicians.

We aren't going to mislead anyone tough: Jimmy doesn't just bully everyone. In fact, he's more on protecting weaker guys that get harassed by preppies, greasers, and jocks. Of course, nerds with their ingenious weapons (rocket bottles, potato cannons), can be troublesome too.

Set for a winter release, expect Bully: Scholarship Edition to take you on a ride through the joys and "torments" of high school. New content were added to enhance the fantastic experience Bully delivered. With smart humor each turn and very realistic yet comical characters, this "T" rated title developed by Rockstar Vancouver is bound to win hearts of teens and teens at heart.

Just another port, one that is bound to looks like a PS2 game on the Wii, and one that is bound to look like a PS2 game in high res on the 360, not even worth the money or the time, why didn't they make Bully 2 instead of porting.

It is going to be great on wii (and would have been cool on psp ) but how are we going to use the controls.

they should have just ported it to the psp. I love the game on my ps2 which I'm still playing. About 66% done but I wont buy this on a 360. Maybe if it was part 2. Its a great game if you havent already played it and you like GTA and those types of games its a must have.
