The first part was very much what the Game offers. You can view that here.

So this game Bully. Many people can describe it as this ‘missions, mini-games and bashing people up’, and many people will be right.

The game in the first ch. is very limited to what you can do, you can attend classes and do the range of missions which don’t seem to present themselves are much as the later ch. So that can put a few gamers of the game, but don’t put it down before you get to the next chapter which I found to be more open and free to do what you want, theres more things you can unlock and the general missions are much more appealing.

One of the missions I did in the second ch. was a panty rade on the girls dorm. Issued by whom? Well the seady gym teacher out the front of a XXX shot. The cut scene was quite funny and one of the ones I didn’t skip.

So when it comes to the story, I’m quite happy.

When it comes to controls you have a very smooth control scheame. I was very pleased with it as it was really easy to jump in and play. Though the mini games are very tight in some parts.

I have one biff with the control style some of the missions or mini games revolves you shooting something in sniper mode with your snigshot or at the carnival it involves you playing the shooting games. While the control scheme works well, it is quite tiring so the Nintendo Wii Zapper comes in handy here to put the wiimote into for those few things to finish these with flying colours.

The music isn’t in your face and works well as background music.

Some funny things to do in the game is to kiss this guy and afterwoods hes has some very funny homosexual dialogue which he says to you around the place.

Or put your hand up the secuartys dress then she gets mad and follows you around the school.

You can get haircuts and buy clothes like GTA:SA. Infact the world is very much like GTA:SA. Some argument comes into it if its bigger than GTA:VC or smaller. The world of Bully is around the same size as the VC city world, infact maybe smaller. It’s hard to tell due to the range of transport you have.

Doing classes gives you either more clothes, moves or skills. An assentive to attend the boring mini-games. Music, Art, Cemistry and Photography have some fun to them, but after awhile they get boring so you end up skipping school and hanging around town doing the missions all the time.

With the reports of glitches from the Xbox360 version some might ask if the Wii version incounters the same. The game can glitch a few times but it only happens…bearly never and nothing to worrie about.

Review Score

Thumbs Up

I give Bully: Scholaryship Edition for the Nintendo Wii a thumbs up. The game is very well done and is a different aproch to the sand-box genure.

Thumbs up means that this game is a game which I recomend to anyone to buy or play.

Enhanced Graphics. Enchanged Gameplay. That is the “promise” which is on the back of the box. But does Bully for the Wii live up to it?

Before I continue the title Bully: Scholaryship Edition is a updated version of Rockstar’s last PS2 title Bully.

The game lets you take control of a teenage rebal called Jimmy Hopkins who his parents have abandoned him at this snooty stricky bording school called Bullworth Academy.

So ofcourse don’t think your getting off easy. You attend classes…or not. Bully on the other kids and avoid the athorty figures.

Through out the school you have all your generic school yard types. I have outlined them here.

Nerds are the kids who look the worst and wear these retarded green clothes. While how annoying they are, they come out good on the end been a strong ally with many reasources you can use.

You then have your Preppies who are just rich fuckers. The Jocks who are tough tools who bully the nerds and always seem to out number you if you try and fuck with them.

Another group at Bullworth is the Greasers these are people who wear leather jackets and hang out at the auto shop. Don’t mess with these guys. They don’t like the average Joe walking around their turf.

You then have your authority figures such as Prefects, Teachers and outside the school there are Cops. These guys try and push law and order on you all the time. Look sideways and your busted.

Outside of school as well you have townies which are everyone that dosen’t live at school. They are total tools.

But don’t think these guys can get the upper hand on you. Throughout the game you can find nerous things to help you out. Such as firecrackers, a slingshot, scateboart, stink bomb, marbles itching poweder and eggs and much much more.

The classes are mini games which you must attend, if a prefect catches you outside of class durring the time one is on, you will be teleported to the class and have to do the mini game if you are caught.

Mathematics class is a mini game which you click on the right answer.

English minigames feature you making words out of a group of letters.

One of the better ones Biology you cut open a range of animals and take out their organs.

The Art class mini game is also fun, you make boxes while other objects try and stop you from making them.

Music is a Rayman Raving Rabbid music minigame clone. It features you wacking either the nunchuck or wiimote in time with the music.

Geography is a bland subject but more fun than English or Math. You put a flag onto a country it represents.

Chemistry is one of the only useful classes. You mix chemicals together to create a reasoruce such as a firecracker or stink bomb etc.

Photography is a subject you unlock after you get a camera. You go around school or town taking pictures.

Gym is another useful class were you learn more moves.

Shop is were you fix up bikes and other automobiles.

All minigames are timed and feel a bit tight but once you get going its easy.

Controls are one of the games hightlights. Rockstar have gotten the scheme of control quite right. You use the control-stick to move around. Pressing some buttons do attacks and swinning the Wiimote or Nunchuck also attacks someone. + and – goes through your weapons and other items.

Music isn’t a strong point but it suits the game well as background music rather than in your face fucking metal or rap shit.

I recomend this game to anyone who can get it.

Reading older posts in this blog can show you I love talking about phone ideas. This time we are talking about a moving menu.

As you can see the box contains a guy which if you use the hand via a touch screen you can then tilt him into the right room or location by moving the box. Each box and room has different features.

The screenshot shows:
- Buttons to switch to ‘list’ or ‘icon’ mode.
- Green call button and red hang up button.
- The Box
- The hand
- A area to say what you are next too.

I would love Nintendo to bring over the red/black and blue/black DS’s. But what more I would like is a Lime/White, Lime/Black or a Lime DS in OZ. Screw anywere else. I WANT LIME DS LITE.

I’d so go and buy one day one if it came out in Lime.

This is so how I will be the best at Wii bolling;

Shouldn’t be to hard right?

No Trinest.Com update today. I might tinker around with the layout later though.
