My First Ever Game Review..So How i do?

Game: Bully

Developer: Rockstar Vancouver

Platforms: Xbox 360,PS2,Wii

Presentation-9.0

Bully opens up instantly putting you in the shoes of a tough 15 year old troublemaker,Jimmy hopkins.The games opening scene shows you in a car with your mom and your new rich step father driving you off to your new boarding school,in which your suppose to stay at for a year while your parents go on a cruise.Bullys presentation is good,funny,and it shows many characteristics of your character.And as you play the game you will notice the story is top notch.Theres no boring or dull parts in the story which is VERY hard to find nowadays in games.Bully is a memorable game that any fan of the action adventure genre will absolutely love.

Graphics- 7.2

The graphics in Bully arnt anything to brag about.And even considering its on a next generation platform makes it look even worse though the Xbox 360 version is still a good graphical upgrade from the original Playstation 2 and Wii versions.In the Xbox 360 version the draw distance is way further and the colors pop out more but at the same time with the high HD capabilities of the 360 some of the visual hic ups are way more noticable than in the Wii version.All in all both versions have great voice acting and the game doesnt look too bad where it would have your eyes bleeding but at the same time the game wont be dropping your jaw.Get what im saying...

Story- 9.5

The story of Bully most certainly is the strong point of the whole game.Rockstar definitely nailed the whole high school feel.You have your jocks,preps,cheerleaders,teachers,and last but not least the nerds.All of the clicks act exactly how there suppose to act from the way they dress to the way they talk and even to the way the characters walk.Everything feels real.Jimmy,(the kid you play as) however has a long history of being a troublemaker and is a street smart kinda guy.At the beginning of the game your known as the wierd new kid and you have no friends till your befriended by a kid named Gary that has a plan to take over the whole school and though Jimmy looks to just get the whole school year over with,it becomes much more than what he expects.

Gameplay-9.0

Like every school you have to go to cl@ss and in Bully you have a choice to go tocl@ss.Each cl@ss consits of mini games and if you win them you get a bonus.If you do choose to go to cl@ss you unlock specific abilities for each specific cl@ss For example if you pass chemistry you will be able to make stink bombs and firecrackers and your dorm room which becomes useful during missions.Or if you pass gym you learn new fighting moves.You can also interact with different students in numerous ways.You can hire bullies to be your body guard,you can kiss girls,or you can just say something to a student wheather its a good comment or bad.Throughout the game you earn new wepons like a slingshot, firecrackers, a bottle rocket launcher, a potato cannon, itching powder, stink bombs, a baseball bat (all wepons are very fun to use).Throughout the game there arent any hic ups as gameplay is concerned.Everything is smooth.

Replayability-8.5

This game isnt short but it isnt long so with that said its replayability isnt bad nor is it great.But this game does have collectables in it and it also has achievements so that will keep you busy.

Price Value-10

At $15-20 theres no reason why you shouldnt give this amazing game a try

Final-9.5

Overall Bully is one of the best games iv ever played. I take my hat off to Rockstar for making this one.

Its good to be Home :)

Sup peeps?So i just got home from a trip out of town and im worn out.If theres anything i learned from this experience is that you should NEVER take a long trip by car :? it gets hella uncomfortable.But anyway i ofcourse took my Xbox and laptop with me so i wont get bored when we got to the hotel (does bringing my xbox with me on a trip make me a nerd? :P lol) and i also went to GameStop and got Lost Planet,Forza 2,and lastly i finally got the chance to trade in Modern Warfare 2 for Call of duty 4 ;).Srry i missed so many of u guys blogs,ill catch up on them.

How We killed Gaming


Real gamers dont argue over consoles,they just play games

For a lot of us gaming is a hobby we love and spend lots of time and money on year after year.Gaming is suppose to be a way that we can all get away from the real world,relax and have fun.But from the start of this generation that all changed.Its impossible to hide that many of us including myself have gotten caught up in the whole console war rage and from looking at the SW threads it also seems like damn near all of us GS members have taken defense to our console of choice whether it be Playstation,Xbox,or PC.It almost seems like the fun in gaming has been killed because of how we act.

Now dont get me wrong, iv had loads of fun this generation because of the games but the social side of gaming has been killed.I remember last generation my friends and i would talk about the games we all wanted and we would all have a good time just chatting.But now i cant even have a decent conversation with my friends about games without them saying a shady remark about the Xbox 360.And ofcourse ill come back at them with a shady remark about the playstation.But for all of us this is the case.As soon as something negative is said about their console or something positive is said about the other, alarm bells ring and they fire into action!

fanboys do the stupidest things

Iv tooken this upon myself to point out a couple of things of how we all screwed up this generation.And now without a further ado...

1.Graphics

Ahh probably the biggest topic when it comes down to console wars,graphics.Now i dont even know why this is a problem for most of you guys.The Xbox 360 and PS3s graphics are damn near the same.And if there is a difference its small.We all have to remember that graphics dont make the game.

2.Sales

I can never remember sales every being used as bullet points in defence of games or consoles.Games and systems seem to be judged on thier sales more than anything.The only people who should be worried about game console sales are Sony,Nintendo,and Microsoft.If your not apart of any of those 3 companies and your worrying about console sales you need to take a break from gaming......a long break.Sales dont reflect quality.

We all made this happen,rather than just playing games and having fun everything has to be a big contest.We lost gaming to the people who dont want to see there favorite system get better,they just want to see your favorite system fail.And the worst part of all of this is is that this is how every gaming generation will be from now on.

If only Microsoft was like Nintendo and Sony

All Microsoft does is steal games from the Sony brand instead of making their own great games.They stole GTA4,they stole Final Fantasy 13,they stole Devil May Cry 4,and the list goes on.Microsoft is by far the laziest out of the 3 game companies.They would just rather throw money at developers and take games from there compition instead of making their own great games and building on their brand with exlusives.So why Microsoft?What is your excuse for this?Why are your top 2 developers (Bungie and Epic games) leaving you?You have more money than both Nintendo and Sony but yet you cant make any other exclusive games besides fable,Halo,and Viva Pinata?

Microsoft also needs to start investing way more money into their 2nd party developers.Halo is Microsofts flagship series but yet they let Halo Reach look like a game made in 2008.I was VERY disappointed to see Microsoft went down the cheap route and that Reach didnt look up to par with Uncharted or Killzone 2.Heck lets be honest here Reach didnt even look better than some of these 3rd party games.

And most importantly Microsoft needs to start making their OWN games and stop stealing from PlayStation.Because if you can put up an exclusive with an even better exclusive not only will your game win but It will ultimatley make the gaming industry that much better.

Whats wrong with being a gamer these days?

So today i went to the mall with a few of my friends and as usual i drifted off into GameStop.And as i was looking at the games i started noticing people walking by giving me weird looks.And this wasnt just a 1 time thing,this happens to me all the time.But i usually just ignore them unless its a hot girl looking at me.Then i just pull out my cell phone and act like im texting :oops:

But seriously,its sad that people still have these mindsets that games are just for kids when games like Mass Effect and MGS4 are being made.But any way I just wanted to share this with you guys.So do any of you ever get weird looks when looking at games also?.....oh i almost forgot to tell you guys i got a nuke today in MW2 :D:D:D:D i didnt think i was ever going to get a nuke lol :P

Treyarch has proven me wrong

This usually doesnt happen but i have to admit that i was wrong about Black Ops.I bascially bashed the heck out of the game before i even got to see real gameplay and thats because i thought Treyarch would just make a copy of Modern warfare 2 but this isnt the case with Black Ops in the least bit.So how has Treyarch won me over you ask?Well to start off they made sure they didnt put that trash MW2 had in Black Ops.So that means no more commando runners,death streaks,nukes and a few other annoying things.So on top of fixing these problems they also added great things to the game as well.Such as a new game types called Wager Modes.

Throughout the whole multiplayer you earn CoD Points, which you get along with your experience points.Cod points are used to buy guns,emblems,etc.And you can think of wager match as basically gambling.You put up a ante to enter a match and the top 3 players are rewarded the money,and the rest of the players get nothing.Sounds fun right?

And another thing Treyarch actually built on was customization.

Black Ops comepletly takes a huge s*** on all shooting games of this generation when it comes down to customization.You can customize your red dot site to a different color and different shape (like a smiley face in the pic above).And you can also make your own emblems which has a deep level of detail involved.The emblem gets put on your gun and you can then show it off.And lastly we have character customization.Finally!!Iv been waiting for this in a CoD game for a long time and its finally coming :P

All in all Treyarch looks to be making an amazing game and im gonna pre-order it next time i go to GameStop.So what do you guys think of Black ops?Tell me in the comments.
