Bully - Scholarship Edition for the Wii

Care to know what the next Wii game I’ll be grabbing will be? No? Tsk, tsk. You’re a strange and uncaring lot you know… Regardless, I’ll just go on and tell you that the next game for my Wii will be no other than Rockstar’s well received (oddly controversial too) Bully - Scholarship Edition. Why? Well, it seems this is the only truly polished, obviously inspired, possibly funny and very professional remake of the 8-bit ZX Spectrum tape classics that were Skool Daze and its sequel Back to Skool, and also the first high-profile game in years to take place in a school. In a stylized, over the top, violent and cartoony school no less.

What’s more, Bully Wii seems -well, according to most reviews it does- like a very well made, addictive and polished game with some lovely Wii Remote mini-games, excellent graphics, interesting soundtrack, many missions, proper multiplayer options, great humour, GTA-like sandbox gameplay and a thoroughly light-hearted tone. Oh, and when I say GTA-like gameplay, I do mean condensed GTA-like gameplay, which should probably make for a more focused, heavier on story game. How very exciting. Oh, and anyone know if catapults are included or is it just slingshots?

    I hear there are hidden mangonels and trebuchets in the game.

    I’m curious: is he giving the kid in that screen a wrist burn or is he just grabbing him?

    Obviously a wrist burn! Yes! Oh, have you played Skool Daze my friend?
