Bully was a great PS2 game, actually one of the best. You play some kid named Jimmy who must survive private school for one year with delinquent students and creepy teachers. The game is a sandbox type where you can do whatever you want until you complete the main story, kinda like Grand Theft Auto. This makes sense since the game is made by Rockstar.

So Jimmy obviously has to do alot of missions for the students, which move the story forward. Jimmy can do these missions between class. Class occurs everyday at specific times. Jimmy can go to class, or skip it until the next time. If he goes to class, he'll have to play minigames to get a good grade in the class, otherwise he'll never finish the game. If he ditches class, he can go and do stuff, but he has to avoid getting caught by the hall monitors or principal.

Jimmy has weapons, but they are the type you would expect kids to have like a slingshot. Most of the time, Jimmy must fight with his fists. While Jimmy is labeled a delinquent, he spends most of his mission time helping kids who have been bullied or blackmailed. We should note that the world of Bully is very small compared to even the original GTA3. Jimmy is limited to travelling on foot or bike. There are a few places for him to visit in the game, but he spends most of his time at the school.

The 360 version of the game contains a few new missions, new outfits for Jimmy to wear, and new minigames for the classes he must pass. The textures are much better than the PS2 version and the environment looks more realistic. However, the polygons are very low for a 360 game. The music is the same as the PS2 version. It's a good soundtrack that will keep you entertained from start to end. But one very serious problem with the 360 version is that it contains numerous bugs.

The multiplayer is limited to the minigames. So you and a friend can play these games on the same system. There's a few achievements, but not much else. Bully is a great PS2 game, but the bugs and lack of real multiplayer hurt it on the 360. The game has problems and we recommend skipping it until a good patch is available.
