Bully Gets Dated for UK Xbox 360

[Albion Knight]

The return of the excellent school-based satire isn't too far away. The Xbox 360 version of Rockstar Games' Bully will be released on March 7th in the UK. This new version isn’t just an updated port. Bully details after the jump:



The Xbox 360 version of Bully features eight new missions, four new lessons, new items and new two-player mini-games. The Xbox 360 version will also benefit from achievement points, which was kind of a given.


The title will be released as “Canis Canem” or “Dog Eat Dog” in the UK.
Details from the publisher:


You're not going to take it anymore. From edgy publisher Rockstar's Vancouver development team comes this dark comedy set in the most vile and sadistic setting yet in a Rockstar videogame: the schoolyard. As a troublesome schoolboy, you'll laugh and cringe as you stand up to bullies, get picked on by teachers, play pranks on malicious kids, win or lose the girl, and ultimately learn to navigate the obstacles of the fictitious reform school, Bullworth Academy.

Just wait for the backlash of parents who buy it for their children not knowing what content the game has now.

I think this game looks boring... How well did the original sell?

Sold quite well actually, following quote is from Jan 9th 07

All those naysayers who said the game would never get a sequel might just be proved wrong at this rate…

Well, I guess my opinions differ from the majority

A lot of games seem to be less interesting then it first appears. Others are just the opposite.

Yeah if they don't get it or read about it they shouldn't complain. How obvious can you get
I think it's supposed to be the Scholarship Edition

Thing is calling it Canis Canem Edit does it more harm than good, because if they had kept the Bully title it would flag it to the parents to check what its about.

Good Point Canis Canem could be about climbing the corporate ladder.

I am personally really looking forward to this game.

Here's their website Rockstar Games Presents BULLY
Has anyone played it?

I want a game where you run around n a long black trench coat and beat the crap out of bully's not be one.

[Arseface]

I thought it looked pretty good until two of my friends got it and said it was crap. It just seems like Grand Theft Playground to me

[Orpheus Lupus]

It's crap if you have the wrong idea about it. You don't actually beat up innocent schoolyard peers and bully them around, you actually take *down* bullies and try to unite the cliques. It's actually one of my favorite games of all time. >_>

[Triz]

I thought it was pretty good if you wanna be that kid who hate evil people. _>

[Orpheus Lupus]

I feel like it's worth mentioning I was only a few mental diseases away from being like Gary in High School. I just, ah...Was a much less evil person.

Anyone who plays the game will somewhat understand XP
