Bully's Scholarly Additions - First Screens, Bonus Features and Release Date

Rockstar Games is best known for its Grand Theft Auto series, but Wii and Xbox 360 owners will soon discover another worthy title in its library. Bully: Scholarship Edition arrives on Wii and 360 on March 4 in the US and March 7 in the UK. Both version are priced at $49.99 and include the original game along with a bevy of extras.

Added to the original PS2 version are eight new missions, four new school classes (biology, music, math and geography), new unlockable items and clothing, new two-player offline minigames, new awards and, of course, Achievements.

(The first two screenshots below are from the X360 version and the second two are from the Wii version.)

Seriously.. the whole 'bloom' effect is dead.

Its really sad that its the only difference between the two versions. I loved the first bully.. is this just a remake? or a different story?

[InMyOpinion]

Xbox devs? You're either paranoid or just plain stupid. I suspect a little of both. Since when are Rockstar "Xbox devs"? The game is coming to both the 360 and the Wii? Are you retarded or what?

I don't see this game selling at $49.99. Much too high of a price for a last gen game. What are they thinking? 1200 points on XBL would be alright.

[Blademask]

The 360 has no first party devs.

It's a ps2 port, not built for the Xbox 360 or Wii for that matter so graphics are going to be sub par or just ok at best, however for those that haven't played it or seen it, this will be a treat.

I loved it on the PS2. I hope they extended the Halloween segment

[Gamingisfornerds]

It looks like an Xbox/ps2 port, which in 2008 is just unacceptable. The game supposedly is good, but is this really necessary and desireable?

Might as well make the original BC and get it over with as I doubt it will introduce much more than a few minor updates/fixes.

[Omegasyde]

The game is worth getting at 50$.

The game was one of the funniest games I have ever played.

[MK_Red]

lol, Can't wait for Jack Thompson to strike back.
Game looks decent and I may end up getting since I didn't give a real chance to PS2 one :(

[Salvadore]

They should have added Jack Thompson in the game under the name Thom Jackson.

[MK_Red]

"Thom Jackson" lol
Bubble worthy idea :)

[Nevers]

LOL... sounds like a porn star

[KidMakeshift]

He should be one of the Halloween costumes

[ElementX]

ha, the hands are just solid lumps with fingers painted on.

[mintaro]

cant wait to play it, was never able to play the ps2 one

[wiizy]

nice. i hope this game does well on the wii.. keep the rockstar support coming

[jackdoe]

The 360 version got almost no visual upgrade. WTF Rockstar?

[ps3FTW]

Looks the same as the PS2 game.

[Nevers]

... an upgrade in visuals would have been nice ... I was really looking forward to this, having not played the PS2 game. Maybe this will bomb and it'll be a must have bargain binner. Fine by me.

[The-Only-Truth]

Speaking of Jack Thompson and Bully...

Picture -->

[bootsielon]

It looks exactly the same. Does this warrant a new purchase if I've already finished Bully at around 90%?

[hokis4ever]

Regardless of what you think of the graphics, it's still a fun game that i personally think a lot of people would enjoy. if you haven't played this on the PS2 and have a 360, then buy it if the price is right (as in 49 or lower.)

[heyheyhey]

oooooooooooh a game that i have played, finished and replayed 2 YEARS AGO and with no visual upgrade and i doubt there is too much new content- however the wii control scheme will breathe some new life into the game, i wonder how it will be implemented?

[sleepbox]

Fantastic game..I hope it outsells the PS2 version.

[AzaziL]

Well I highly doubt R* will release both GTA IV and a remake of bully on the same day, so this worries me alot. Release GTA before and you lose tons of sales on Bully since everyone will already be playing GTA. However, it's just as infeasible to release it a week or two after to cut into the sales. Well looks like we won't be seeing GTA till April then, it seems like nothing but bad news has come from R* for awhile now. Who gives a damn about a Bully remake, I WANT MY GTA NOW!!!!!!!

[DeckUKold]

Tell me the difference between xbox360 and Wii versions

[Ahhhh]

People complain bout Graphics too much... Seriously, gamingisfornerds, "It looks like an Xbox/ps2 port, which in 2008 is just unacceptable." Um, go play Pac-Man.. horrible graphics.. but, who cares? It's still a great game.
