Ace game, loads of fun! BUY THIS! - By: Ms. K. J. Hankinson, 17 Jun 2008 
I love this game!! i bought it as my first game for the wii because i loved grand theft auto but this is better! Its a refreshing change to grand theft auto which can get a bit repetitive. You actuallly learn maths, english geography too.
Protect the geeks & beat up the big bullys, lots of tasks & alll so different.
Love it!
Don't Believe the Name, Believe The Hype - By: J. Mccreary, 26 Mar 2008 Having only recently bought a Nintendo Wii, & exausting Wii Sports to death, I plunged for "Bully" as my first official game purchase for my new console, & I have to say I was more than pleasantly suprised.
"Bully" is the tale of 15 year old Jimmy, a little tough guy who is not afraid to stand up for himself & what he believes in. Unfortunately, there are others who wish to stand in his way, which include not only members of the student body, but authority as well.
Due to the fact that this game was a Rockstar release, the same software house that has brought us the incredible "Grand Theft Auto" series, "Bully" (or "Canis Canem Edit" in it's previous 2006 release) has received a lot of bad press from ignorant, uninformed people too quick to brand this as another violent game that was going to promote bullying in schools. What you actuallly realise while playing this game is that this is far different from the style of gameplay brought to us in "GTA." Although the graphics, game engine & playing style are basicallly the same, the story pits you (as Jimmy) AGAINST the Bullys, fighting for what he believes in & sticking up for the weak & helpless.
The moral story behind "Bully" is rather positive, & therefore should be celebrated as an achievement from Rockstar, balancing out what they brought us with "GTA". Sure, you have elements of mischeif, but there is no blood, no vicious violence, no killing & no explicit bad language. It is purely the fun & cheekiness that we alll wish our school days had been like! (Speaking of school days, if you ever played "Skool Daze" or "Back 2 Skool" on your ZX Spectrum or Commodore 64, you will realise that "Bully" is the game you always wanted them to be!)
Overalll, with the Wii, "Bully" is a fantastic game. You can use the remote to fire your catapult, fist fight with the bullys, pinch girl's bums, & even raise your arms up to give the bad guys wedgies! It's the most fun I've had in ages.
Thumbs up Rockstar!
GTA with kids - By: L. Wright, 22 Mar 2008 Millions of people know Rockstar as the people who brought us the Grand Theft Auto games, & within minutes you know Bully is from the same crowd.
Thats a good thing as the games plot & missions, run smoothly into each other.
The skill level at the beginning is quite low, perfect for getting the feel of slightly confusing controls, however 2hrs later the controls feel as though you redefined them yourself.
Graphicallly you'll be pleased, its not eye popping, but this is the Wii, so forget comparing it to the Xbox360 version.
This game is awesome, with a superb storyline, brilliant script, great minigames with a well designed free roaming area to explore.
This is a nostalgia trip back to school, forget what people claim is a controversial game, & think if it as a toned down GTA.
Fed up of Bullies! - By: Zulu, 20 Mar 2008 
Started to play this & began to enjoy it but it can be frustrating when a mission doesn't go right. It also takes a long time to go through stuff which can also be annoying! The kids in the school are alll annoying - maybe I just don't like teenagers? Apart from that it is quirky & funny with enough of a challlenge & a bit of an opportunity to let off steam! Makes great use of the Wii controls too!
Bully is back! - By: Mrs Mary Donald-Mattinson, 13 Mar 2008 I believe that one of the main reasons people like this game is because their is nothing else like it - okay, theirs Grand Theft Auto & the Harry Potter games which have slight similarities in ways but i think this is one of a kind.
People can complain that the transaction of Canis Canem (Bully) on the Xbox 360 & Wii is no different to how it was on the PS2, but who cares reallly? If you had the game on PS2 who said you HAD to buy it on your Wii?
Overalll i think this game is great! The characters are hilarious, the storyline is clever & the gameplay is fun & never gets boring. Must buy!
