Bully (PS2)

I have to start this by stating that I am not a particular fan of Rockstar. My first experience with the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) series was via Vice City. Whilst I loved the atmosphere of the game, I found the actually game engine was awful and extremely limited, especially when compared with the depth in the likes of Shenmue. As a result, I approached Bully with trepidation. I had heard the media outcry (but I was used to that having grown up on the likes of Mortal Kombat and Night Trap) and thought it only fair to try it with an open mind. Bully will no doubt fail to entertain many people who have grown up with the likes of GTA. I think it's appeal ...  Read the complete review

I have always enjoyed most of the violent games that Rockstar has produced. But this time, I more then like it. I LOVE IT!!! Bully center on Jimmy, a troubled, spoiled juvenile, and his parents get fed up with him being such an ***, so they send him away to Bullworth Academy. There, he tries to get some friends, and his new friends teach him how to get around the daily campus life. The game is somewhat similar to Grand Theft Auto, but without blood, and milder profanity. Unlike the title suggests, this game makes bullying other students at the Academy possible, but definitely does not encourage it at all. If you are caught doing anything bad, a prefect will chase you, ...  Read the complete review

I've had a Playstation 2 for about eighteen months now, and I've been frankly startled at the varying quality of the games available. For every Grand Theft Auto, there's a Family Guy Video Game. For every Lego Star Wars, there's an Inspector Gadget. And this is about what you'd expect from a console that has been around for quite a few years. I have to say, I expected Bully to be more in the Inspector Gadget mould. Although I've yet to find anything that explicitly links it, it seems - amazingly - to be at least inspired by School Daze (aka Back to School) that first appeared on the ZX Spectrum in the 80s! Although everything about the game is ...  Read the complete review

Bully is an action game developed by Rockstar for the Playstation 2 console. The story of the game follows Jimmy Hopkins, his mother has married a rich guy and the pair want to go off on a honeymoon and don't want Jimmy in the way, so they drop him off at Bullworth Academy for the year, you will follow his story as he makes new friends and enemies at the academy, attends classes, chats up the girls, and so on. The story is made pretty enjoyable thanks to the characters you meet in it. Gameplay has you take control of Jimmy and gives you free roaming aceess to the whole of Bullworth academy and nearby town of Bullworth itself. As you are at a school ...  Read the complete review

Bully is a game that was developed by the world renound Rockstar group and is also known as Canis Canem Edit. The game itself is a third person action shooter and it was originally released in October 2006. It really is a fantastic game that is another greta addition to the rockstar series. I wasn't sure whether I was going to get it at first but after seeing many of the trailers it persuaded me to give it a try, and I wasn't dissappointed. There is even a scholarship game that is available for the Wii and Xbox 360 and this has some new extras such as 8 new missions. The game itself is set in a very cool map that is of course as the game suggests based on a ...  Read the complete review
