Were you one of the popular kids in your class? Did you date a cheerleader? Or did you get beaten up in the schoolyard after class? Either way, now you've got the chance to go back to school on your own terms thanks to Rockstar Games.

An exaggerated take on life in the schoolyard, Bully takes place at fictitious Bullworth Academy, a corrupt and crumbling prep school with an uptight facade. The story follows Jimmy Hopkins, a teenager who has been expelled from every school he ever attended. Left to fend for himself after his mother abandons him at Bullworth to go on her fifth honeymoon, Jimmy has a whole year at Bullworth ahead of him, working his way up the social ladder of this demented institution of supposed learning, standing up for what he thinks is right and taking on the liars, cheats and snobs who are the most popular members of the student body and faculty.

As a mischievous schoolboy, you will stand up to bullies, get picked on by teachers, play pranks, win or lose the girl, and ultimately learn to navigate the obstacles of the worst school around, Bullworth Academy. If you can survive the school year and outsmart your rivals, you could rule the school. Talk about a fantasy.

Bully is the debut title from Rockstar Vancouver and definitely takes the Rockstar tradition of awesome gameplay and tongue-in-cheek storytelling to a new level in a totally original setting. It will be hitting shelves in October 2006.
