Video Game Reviews of Bully: Scholarship EditionCustomer Review: after patch and price drop, this game is an excellent bargain Summary: 4 Starsbasically this is a g-rated GTA. it's an upgraded port to tide you over until gta4. the bug freezes and things were fixed and price dropped dramatically very quickly before i picked it up, making it a bargooon.
anyway, if you like gta, or have kids not old enough to play gta, this game is possibly for you. same style, same basic sandbox world, map, missions, just minus the sex, weapons and killing.
since it's open-world sandbox, the game can take awhile, and that's a good thing. there are plenty of side missions for you, things to collect and accomplish for 100% completion if you're into that sort of thing. be very careful though, there are some easy things to miss for 100% -- i missed the 2nd lawn mowing job near the retirement home.

The story follows 15-year-old Jimmy Hopkins, a teenager who's been expelled from every school he's ever attended. Left to fend for himself after his mother abandons him at New England boarding school of Bullworth Academy to go on her fifth honeymoon, Jimmy has a whole year at Bullworth ahead of him, working his way up the social ladder of this demented institution of supposed learning, standing up for what he thinks is right and taking on the liars, cheats and snobs who are the most popular members of the student body and faculty. If Jimmy can survive the school year and outsmart his rivals, he could rule the school.
Ready yourself for a hilarious return to campus living with Bully, the outrageously funny game title for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.
