I'll probably end up getting the 360 version unless the Wii has something special besides the controls.

I had hoped the Wii version would be $30-$40. $50 seems high, but I guess we will have to see how the new content is.

I think both versions should be 29.99 but because of the "current gen" mark up with the 360/PS3 39.99 for 360 version max.

Anyone pick this up? I hear the 360 version locks up frequently

I got it for the 360. Luckily I haven't experienced any lock-ups (i played through the "Halloween" missions yesterday, which seem to be an area of trouble for a lot of people and made it through without any freezes. BUT - there are plenty of audio drop-outs, framerate dips and stuttering. I hear the Wii version runs smoothly and glitch-free. If I had known that before opening the game, I would have taken it back to the store and exchanged it for the Wii version. I've trained myself to save frequently (every time I finish a mission), just in case.

How are the Wii controls?

While I can't comment on the Wii version specifically (obviously), I will say that this game is very entertaining. The dialog is well written and most of the missions are quite fun. If you had never played Bully on the PS2 like me, I'd say it's definitely worth checking-out.

The Wii controls for the msot part make sense, but they feel just a little less accurate compared to Godfather's. Maybe I'm just not used to them yet though...

darknight06 · « **Reply #33 on:** March 06, 2008, 04:07:59 PM »

They are less accurate than Godfather, which is a turnoff to me because Godfather worked incredibly well overall. It looks better than Godfather thankfully, but so far that's about all I can say about it. Right now it feels like it was overrated like crazy, but I still need some more time with it before I say anything else.

It's definitely a smaller scope than the other GTA games, which is very welcome, but I think that Rockstar missed the opportunity they had with the smaller scope to weave a tighter narrative. Sandbox games naturally have very loose overall narrative threads to involve the player, but in the little I've played so far Bully feels just as jarringly mission-based as ever.

Am I the only nerd that's too riddled with grade school-induced neuroses to pick up this game?

Ah, but you can turn the tables and fight back in this game! Plus you can go around harassing and beating innocent students.

I got this and have been playing through. I don't normally like most Rockstars games but this has been decent so far. The controls seem overly complicated.

I bought this game a long time ago, at your suggestion, but my plate was full with other games so i gave it (and boom blox!) to my gf for her to play. She enjoyed it, but she's not playing her wii much any more. There was one night where she brought it over and I got to play it, and i agree.. the controls do seem overly complicated. I think i still prefer Scarface over Godfather and Bully in the "sand-lot" games wii has so far. Maybe i should get Bully back and put more than a few hours into it though, that might change my opinion.

Oh who am i kidding, i don't have time for games! haha

Bully isn't really that much of a sandbox game. I played it linearly and just enjoyed the story line. However there is a great paper boy mini game. I don't recall overly complex controls as at all sorry. Scarface can suck my...

BALLS!? Tony got no problem saying the world BALLS man, no need to hide it.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #42 on:** July 27, 2009, 01:05:35 PM »

The game is pretty linear so far. Even if you don't follow the storyline, you have certain amount of time per day, and you are supposed to be in class in the morning and afternoon. After 7pm the school closes and at 11pm the curfew starts. at 2am you fall asleep from exhaustion and get robbed.

lol thats awesome..

ShyGuy · « **Reply #44 on:** July 27, 2009, 02:37:10 PM »

Time really moves too fast. If you're on one end of campus, it can take 90 minutes to get to the other side.

EasyCure · « **Reply #45 on:** July 27, 2009, 03:17:54 PM »

That's not awesome. I'll use that as my excuse not to go back to that game any time soon

Thanks shyguy!

ShyGuy · « **Reply #46 on:** August 14, 2009, 02:27:50 PM »

I really like this persistent modern world. Part of me wishes that they had limited Bully to just the campus and made the game denser.

Isn't this game great? I loved this game. One that will give me a classic nostalgic feel.

EasyCure · « **Reply #48 on:** August 17, 2009, 11:40:48 AM »

I wonder if my girlfriend ever finished it so i can get it back and not play it for another year or 2 when the Wii2 has its first game drought
