Product ReviewsBully -- Scholarship Edition (Microsoft Xbox 360, 2008)

Received as advertised

I wish I could have bought a different one. I like to buy complete games instead of "Game Only" (which means you just get the DISK only it seems). I am not sure why they sell these. They should be sold with all of the included game books. Oh well, the game played through perfectly, which was what counted in the long run.Read full review...

Pretty confusing description

You may think the Xbox 360 picture means it’s an Xbox 360 game, then you read Xbox 360/ plays on the Xbox one well the games backwards compatible so is it the Xbox’s one version or original it’s the Xbox one version if that’s something you don’t care about.Read full review...

Bully (Xbox 360)

Bully: Scholarship Edition is a solid translation of the original PS2 game. It gives a little extra, but is at its core the same game. Though it has some limitations, particularly in the lack of depth of the social structure, there are many other great aspects to enjoy. And really, there is no other game like Bully on 360. If you haven't figured it out yet, Bully is a great game. Go out and buy it; you won't regret the purchase.Read full review...

Cool game

Tons of stuff to do with plenty of interactivity to the general environment. Upgrades from taking courses or doing missions or side activities definitely make it all worthwhile.

Only a couple of complaints. 1. The day goes by too quickly. Early in the game, you'll either be getting chased around campus for being truant from class, or you'll be spending the whole day in class (Thankfully that stops when you complete the entire course and it lets you skip that particular class). Even when you're done with classes though, it's a constant race against the clock to finish tasks before you pass out at night. 2. The customization is really lacking on Jimmy. You can change his haircut slightly but he still looks the same and if you're still needing to take classes, prefects in the school will bust you if you're not in uniform so it's like a disincentive to wear anything else.

Given those complaints, a lot of the humor is great from the alcoholic english teacher, the cooking lady, and especially the cliques of school hierarchy.

The tasks are fun, even if some are really difficult. Same with course work. Some is just too easy and others are really difficult (Chemistry really easy button prompts, geography really difficult unless you cheat through it by having a map and repeatedly pausing the game).

There's just something about the fun, the amount of things to do, and storyline that just keeps me coming to this game.Read full review...

Bully Scholarship Edition Review

Bully: Scholarship Edition for the Xbox 360 earns a 5 out of 5 rating. I decided to purchase Bully because I enjoyed the limited time I spent playing the game over a friend's house. Also, the game is made by Rockstar Games, the same company who makes the highly successful Grand Theft Auto series. So I knew the game would be good. I have found myself playing Bully for hours at a time. From the deep storyline to all of the side missions, the game is sure to keep any player entertained. The game takes place in a boarding school, so naturally, you have to attend classes. But the classes are fun and success in the classes allows you to unlock many objects, such as clothing. You even get to perform disections in Biology class. While playing recently, however, a glitch caused me to have to reload the game, so I had to redo everything that I had just accomplished. That's the only problem I encountered with the game. Other than that, the game is great. Bully: Scholarship Edition gets an "A" in my gradebook.Read full review...

Bully: Scholarship Edition (Xbox 360)

This is a good pg-13 (Id say) style of Grand Theft Auto. Pretty much the same style of game play, easy achievments and gameplay. I did notice that the game can get very "glitchy" at times to the point you need to restart the game, not the machine though. I would recomend in any game like this to save offten!

Overall I was very entertained with it! 4/5 in my book!Read full review...

Rockstar did it again.

A fun game that has held up over time. Rockstar knocked it out of the park with this one.

A guilty pleasure

I always wanted to try this game and after finding one on the cheap end I decided why not. The gameplay could use a little more polish for the controls but it's not bad. It's sort of like GTA if you take away the prostitutes and any sort of vehicle. At least right now at the start. I am sure it shall get better but I am just having fun going to class and doing the little mini games which are present. Each class you pass you get more stuff for it. You can't go wrong with that at least I don't think you can. In short if you are looking for something fun to beat before the next gta check this out.Read full review...
