Old game, is Bully worth a spin?

[Setharion]

Ive owned it for 360 for the longest time and ive never played it. I wasnt really into Rockstar games at the time, RDR is what really pulled me into their style of game and im just curious how good Bully is and or what kind of game it plays like.

It's a good game especially for the price. It's a fun game that you can sink 8-10 hours in and be done. It was interesting mostly because of the character development, it felt like you were part of the student body by the time it was done. Most of the kids in the game had a name and were recognizable. The missions were fun and provided just the right amount of challenge.

I am a fan of rockstar so take this mini-review with a grain of salt.

Ranked:

1. RDR
2. GTA - San Andreas
3. GTA - Vice City
4. Bully
5. GTA IV
6. GTA III

Bully above both of the GTA True Sequels? Is it because Bully is that good, or because you thought GTA III and IV were not that good?

[normie32r]

GTA IV was a little bland at times and not as much fun as SA and VC. Gay Tony DLC was more fun than the original.

GTA III was revolutionary but lacked in any memorable storyline or characters. I played it for hours endlessly, but just have never wanted to play again after VC and SA.

Also, if you like crime sandbox games, Saints Row games are worth the price. They are over the top which is what makes them fun.

Bully was awesome. I beat it on PS2 and have been wanting to replay it on PC for a while.

Bully was awesome, it was great having that juvenile immature style atmosphere again, the pranks were funny, the school social structure and even the shy awkward school crushes were there, side missions were fun. It amazes me at what contoversy this game had when it came out, ridiculous really. It was so obviously spouted out by politicians who had never played the game but just heard that there was a computer game "that encourages you to bully other students" what BS, they should of been forced to play it and would see it wasn't exactly like that at all.
Me and the mrs played it whilst we were both off work (Xmas or Easter holiday or something) and we both equally loved it, it's one of my fondest gaming memories tbh as a game that we could both get stuck into. My mrs still talks about it now and it's like 3 years later
