Bully 1 Discussion / "The Outsiders" and other In-game references

« on: April 30, 2008, 05:46:36 PM »

Did anyone here read The Outsiders?

I was walking past a greaser once (I forget which) and they said "Stay gold, Ponyboy." Also, if you pull the fire alarm in the dorm, a greaser might run by saying "JOHNNY! A FIRE!"

Rockstar is famous for references to pop culture (Grottos & Gremlins / Dungeons & Dragons??). Did anyone find anything else while playing the game?

Bully 1 Questions / 'Using prank'?

« on: April 25, 2008, 05:25:39 AM »

It's happened three times now that I'll be fooling around the boys dorm and for a fleeting moment, just a second or so, I get a trouble meter warning I haven't seen much elsewhere: "Using prank." It almost always happens when I kill a rat, throw it somewhere, and then run around harassing people. Just what is that full prank? Does anyone know of any other pranks?

Bullworth Experiences / COOLEST thing thats happened

I tried out the prank where you scatter a bunch of marbles in front of the dorm exit and pull the indoor fire alarm. You're supposed to hide in the trash can after that because everyone will want to kick your ass, but I didn't, so I had around seven or eight people trying to attack me at once. I think they accidentally attacked each other in the process or something, because before I knew it, I'd caused a huge dorm room brawl and everyone was killing eachother.

Anti-Bully / Things you dont like about Jimmy.

When I first saw Jimmy, I shared many of the complaints people have already mentioned-- I was like, man, this kid is pretty ugly... He looks kinda fat too... Ew...

But as I played it I realized: in some weird way, his appearance makes him more 'real'. He doesn't have an ideal look because he's real. He has freckles and an ugly nose because some kids have freckles and an ugly nose, and he's short because some kids are just short.

I came to really like his look. Just imagine if he was some perfect stereotypical thin muscular tall tough guy with a perfect face and handsome eyes? This ain't Hollywood!

Also

What I don't like about him is how he treats Petey. I mean Petey was probably the only one in the whole game that gave a damn and he sticks up for him and helps him out giving him all these good ideas and Jimmy calls him a dork and doesn't really pay him any mind..I didn't like that I thought that was jerkish.

Seconded. He came through for Petey in the end, but throughout the game he was really inconsiderate towards him. I COULD NOT STAND the way he was acting in the opening of Chapter V (is that right?)
