Graphics 9/10

Of all of rockstars games they have done a great job on the graphics. They are ahead of the grand theft auto graphics, but they are still cartoon like. Not completely but it doesn't look completely realistic. The wepons explosions also have some pretty nice effects. The other thing is, there is no blood in it. All of the other games from rockstar have had blood. The punches are also amazing. Unlike the other rockstar games you must hit them head on. In grand theft auto you don't even have to be near them to hurt them. There are

Sound 9/10

The sound in this game is really amazing. Every clique has their own fight music. Also when doing mission the sound matches on the mission type. The sound also match everything you do. As an example depending on your alert meter there will be different sounds. When in the city the cops will chase after you and they will have their own seperate sound. The theme music when your in the boys dorm or just in the school is also cool. Even the classes get their own sounds. They also play real smoothly without any loopholes. There are very nice sound effects too. There are effects from punches, firecrackers, stinkbombs, etc. The bullworth symbol is also interesting. It shows up 3d on the box and its everywhere in the game. It shows a fist, a snake and alot of other violent stuff.

Gameplay and playability 10/10

This game lasts a long time. After your first few missions you wont even have 1% complete. There are loads of missions and secrets for you to complete. The only dissapointing thing is once you beat the game 100% you get nothing accept for having 100% completion and everything in the game. Every Rockstar game has done that so far. After you beat this game the first time you might not stop. You could get addicted and beat it a few more times.

There are also many classes and funny things you can do. Such as in the winter you can have a snowball fight. There are also a large ammount of wepons. You also have hundreds of outfits to put on. You could look like anyone.

When in old bullworth vale or in bullworth town you can free roam and then do whatever you want. You can check into the carnival, go to stores and find out about buildings to see if they have anything good ontop or attached to it. Such as the ballon facet. which you can fill water ballons with.

You even get manny vehicals in this game. You can get many types of bikes from shop class or just buy one at a bike shop. You also get a moped for 75 tickets at the carnival which goes fast. Eventually you can get a go kart. It goes faster than anything and the cops and prefects cant even catch you.

You also get hundreds of secrets from free videogames to free soda. After you complete chapters and mission or just do something fun. you could easily desover a glitch.

This is also one of the rockstar games that allows you to swim. The prefects and cops can"t bust you. Instead some sort of glitch causes them to spawn a brick out of nowhere.

The minigames and races are also nice. You also get a good ammount of money and secrets. The race tracks are cool and you even colelct secrets sometimes.

When fighting you have loads of fighting moves. You learn all sort of fighting moves from gym class and the hobo from A little help. You also seem super strong and when in a one on one fight you always win. Unless its with a prefect or a tough person.

There are also stats for about every little little thing you do. They count you punches kicks. they even have acuracy percentage. They also count how many km you have ran/walked in the game.

Buy it?
Yes, you should buy this. It is very cheap and its worth it for the lifespan and duration of the game. It also went down fast and you could probably get it as low as 20 or 30 dollars in an electronics store.
