OXB - "Rockstar recently filed a tradement for Bully: Bullworth Academy Canis Canem Edit. We're too excited by the prospect of a fully fledged sequel to 2005's Bully, if that's what it is, to mind the terrible name. Bully is even better than that other open-world Rockstar franchise Grand Theft Auto, despite being a million times less popular or successful. Hit the jump to find out why Bully might be the best thing that Rockstar ever made."
Rockstar appears to have updated the PC version of Bully: Scholarship Edition, but it wasn't the major improvement many speculated.
Bully: Scholarship Edition was an Xbox 360 & Wii re-release of the PS2 classic. Still playable on modern consoles, it'll make you long for a sequel.
A sequel? More likely a remake as is the current trend? No point, everyone wants GTA VI.
It's a shame that basically all of Rockstar's catalogue apart from GTA and Red Dead is now, well, dead.
The R☆ of today is extremely unlikely to put out any project that isn't GTA because of the gaming climate and because GTA is stupidly self sustaining.
Gone are the days of a mainline title and a portable tie-in/standalone title of the same name just like publishers putting out multiple fighters at once.
Costs are too high and mainline titles have become too gargantuan to allow for "risks" on lesser titles that may not take off or sell.
Take Capcom for example, and SF6. We are unlikely to ever see a new installment of their other fighters like Rival School or Darkstalkers because SF6 is more popular, recognized and costly. A new Darkstalkers in the RE Engine would look sick as f*ck, and would visually be unlike any other fighter if done right. Sadly though, it's not as recognizable as SF and Capcom is unlikely to put so much on the line for something that might not catch.
If there’s to be a sequel it should be at the college/university level. Otherwise its just going to be a rehash of the same progression and story.
Yes, at one point, people really were angry about Night Trap.
Arguably one of the few ps2 games I lost track of time in more than a couple of months.
such a good game. people who have missed out on this game should still go pick it up.
Really loved this game and everything about it. It was something different and unexpected, and i really hope they continue the franchise and take it to another level for next gen.
It was fresh, smart and hell of a lot of fun.
I honestly gave Bully a try... I didn't care for it.
