Peak Rockstar.
Super fun missions, likeable and hateable characters, a good map with lots to find and do.
Honestly better than GTA

«Time-tested»
Underrated Rockstar banger.
A great story, fun combat and stellar mission and world design.
Steer clear of the PC port, that one is absolutely broken.

Very much of its time, and that makes it hard to revisit.  But its a unique game that has cemented itself as a cult classic, so i'd recommend it to an enthusiast.
The game is fantastic but spare yourself and don't play it on PC

Excellent game create by Rockstar! It dates a little but remains a great reference! There are also a lot of points Comun between GTA and this game:-great MAP (which includes a whole University but not only!)-dialogues wanted (vulgarity, humor, sex... Everything is going on!) -Numerous and well diversified quests! -Pervasive violence but not that... Skill competition for example! You are put into the skin of a student for the least undisciplined, who finds it forcibly incorporated into this University. On that the re-entry will not be any rest!

Bully is one of those games that are unforgettable, because it's a sum of the conditions that make a game amazing. Released in 2004 on PS2, then a little reworked a few years later for releases on the consoles of the 7th generation, this is probably one of the best games I could have the chance to play. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=735077534 and yet... When we look at the screenshots, the cinematics filthy with ugly characters, the old decorations, we naturally say that this game must be foul. Only thing that hiss it, it was thought and realized by the great brains of the video game that are the Houser brothers, that is all the creativity of Rockstar Games to them both. Hard to imagine that a game with the object of adolescence and school can be thrilling? This game is upsetting everything, both by its excellence. You play as Jimmy, a boy ignored by his mother and future budding offender, who integrates into the social system of the Bullworth Academy and its surroundings. This game is indeed a pretty simple caricature, but yet real from the social pyramid in the studies, in plain, there are the normal students, the nice but silly nerds, the cool but dumb sportsmen, and the sons of pretentious Bourges. Your role is to climb into this pyramid through extremely thrilling missions (I assure you that if), through challenges and Brawl. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=735830965 however, it is hard enough to start the game since it is, at least at first, quite annoying. It is only by progressing in missions, by assimilating the basics, that you start to really burst. Thing though quite regrettable, if the game is extremely fun when you make the story, it becomes sadly annoying when you finish it... As such, I advise you to make several backups at different times in history to be able to access them more easily. An excellent game that I really do not regret to have discovered a few years ago, and even if it's been a long time since I played there, I can only advise you, just by nostalgia for the period or I only lit my console to play.
