On March 4 Xbox 360 owners are going back to school with the release of Rockstar Games' Bully: Scholarship Edition. A port of the critically acclaimed PlayStation 2 title, the Xbox 360 version of Bully adds eight new missions, a competitive multiplayer mode, new classes and clothes. And, of course, Bully: SE also has Achievements.

Bully: Scholarship Edition has 38 Achievements totally 1000 Gamerpoints. Don't expect to earn every Achievement just by beating the game. If you want them all, you have got some serious work to do.

The most misunderstood game of 2006 is getting a second chance at life on March 4, when Bully: Scholarship Edition stomps angrily onto the Wii and Xbox 360. The first trailer for the game - a revamped, expanded and visually overhauled version of Rockstar's controversial juvenile-delinquent simulator - hit today, and while it doesn't really offer a glimpse of what's new, it should satisfy the curiosity of anyone who's wondering how its cartoony visuals and irreverent mayhem will hold up on ... » Read More

Despite the fact it's already been sitting on the shelves for over a year on PS2, another ruckus is being kicked off over Rockstar's Bully, reignited thanks to the upcoming release of Xbox 360 and Wii versions of the game. UK publication Daily Telegraph describes the new Scholarship Edition, as an "even more realistic" take on the 2006 original, which "encourages players to act out assaults on pupils and teachers." Beating a dead horse much? The game's also sparked additional rows by ... » Read More

A violent new video game which is set in a school and encourages players to act out assaults on pupils and teachers has been condemned by anti-bullying campaigners and teaching unions.

The game, called Bully, features a shaven-headed pupil who torments fellow students and teachers at his school.

Critics said the game was "glorifying" school bullying and called for it to be banned.

The PC World and Currys chain of stores said it had already decided not to stock the game. A spokesman said: "We don't think this is suitable for sale in our stores. We are careful about what we sell and this is something we have decided not to list."

Although the date wasn't on exactly on target, it seems that GoNintendo's speculation that the Bully Scholarship Edition would hit in early March (based on a listing at Gamestop) was right on the money. Rockstar has announced that the school year at Bullworth Academy will begin in the US on March 5th and March 7th in the UK with all the crotch kicking, swirlies, hiding in lockers, stealing and boy kissing you can handle.

Jan 16, 2008 We loved Bully (or Canis Canem Edit as it was called in the UK). Especially because its skilled storytelling and able action made a mockery of the smear campaign that lazily dubbed Rockstar's school romp as a 'Columbine simulator'. The trouble was, though, that it launched on PS2 at the exact time that Xbox 360's appeal was dragging gamers into the next-generation. Meaning there'll be lots of you that never got the pleasure of enrolling at Bulworth Academy. Which is pretty sad. ... » Read More

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.

"Jimmy Hopkins is supposedly ready to kiss the girls (and boys) at Bullworth Academy on Wii and Xbox 360 starting March 3. Bully: Scholarship Edition will feature "new content" and that's still all about we know at this point. Perhaps we'll get a little hands-on time with it at GDC, but we don't even really know if the Wii version will have waggle and the Xbox 360 will sport better textures."

According to French site Jeux-France.com, the remake of Rockstar's PS2 title won't be hitting the Wii and 360 until 7 February. It had previously been listed as appearing this year.

Given that 2007 is now drawing to a close and we've not seen much of it yet, this isn't exactly a huge surprise. Still, if Rockstar feels it needs more time, so be it ¿ the PS2 version received glowing reviews when it was released in 2006, so a little extra development time will hopefully ensure that the 360 and Wii version are of the same standard.

After the furore surrounding Rockstar Games' Canis Canem Edit (a.k.a. Bully) eventually died down, few could argue that all the game contained was mild school ground pranks that left a warm, fuzzy feeling of nostalgia inside.

Thankfully, it seems that despite all the negative press, Canis Canem Edit has finally received the recognition that it deserves, picking up Best Videogame Script award at last night's Writer's Guild of Great Britain Awards 2007.

In spite of all the critical acclaim, most people glossed right over Rockstar Games' Bully; it even received a coveted 10 in the pages of EGM. Rockstar isn't giving up on the new IP just yet, however, as they've announced Bully: Scholarship Edition for both Xbox 360 and Wii, complete with tweaked visuals and additional content.
Other than that, we're in the dark, but Rockstar says the revamped Bully is coming to both platforms this "winter." This could be the perfect game to cool down from the fall gaming season with in early 08 -- keep watching as we learn more -- but here's a question: where's the PlayStation 3 version?
