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.
