this game is the shit. I rented it over the weekend at blockbuster and i play it every chance i get(usually at night when everyone is asleep).
I like how you can click up with groups(nerds, greasers, jocks, preps) or you can not give a shit and start brawling with whom ever. I've been trying my to find all the Radio Transistors so the bum(behind the shop building)can teach me some fighting techniques. I like riding the bike around town and those bike races are fun even though they seem easy(so far). Art class is fun, along with playing dodge ball(P.E.). I find Chemistry somewhat difficult(must be the weed) and i've failed shop class a couple of times.
Once you unlock one part of town; you'll be able to ride the bus to school, purchase goods, buy/customize a bicycle, play some games at the fair, join a boxing match or two, and have a new place to save the progress of your game. I think there are 3/4 areas to unlock( i may be wrong) and once you've unlocked more areas on the map you'll have more stuff to do.
It'd be nice if the clock would slow down a bit before school started, during lunch(that way i can atleast complate one mission/task). I can skip a class or two but that doesn't do you any justice, because you won't be able unlock new items.
Overall it's a good game and i'm definitely going to buy it in a couple of weeks.
I slept on this game for a while and last weekend i was hoping to rent God of War II but had no luck finding it, so i went with Bully, and i've been stuck on this game since.
