Truly an otherworldly presenter and entirely independent tech issues trouble shooter extraordinaire Joshimuz The UnCut. Never felt the end of a blade some say. Never.
The reason this game was one of the bests I would say was mainly its atmosphere. Playing an open world game as a student that is made the classic rockstar way still blows my mind. Rockstar's attention to detail made this much more immersive than it should be.
Its fine to consider the soundtrack generic, i just want you to tell me what the golden standard is, what is a GREAT soundtrack if this one is generic.
A bizarre decision about Scholarship Edition, its not running on Renderware. The game runs on Gamebryo, might explain all the bugs and the muddier visuals.
Empires have risen and fell in the time your bike have gotten built, shipped and assembled. Looking forwards to this video, never played the game myself.
for me it was speedrunning through all the main missions and wondering why events happening that fast. and the streamer just doesn't read anything from the prompts and then trying to figure it out randomly, not using the map a single time... also xbox version makes it even worse. i got mad for one of my favorite games of all time lol
He does sometimes hum the mission passed theme from San Andreas/vice City and since he has to play without radio it‘s the only music he hears. That being said I disagree with his opinion, Bully has great music.
He‘s honestly really bad at geography. I remember when he said that he never heard about Sweden before he got invited for a speedrunning contest 😂 Makes me question what they‘re teaching in the UK.
Honestly it's refreshing to see a person from UK fail miserably geography, since they and the rest of Europeans like to constantly trashtalk Americans about it
11 hours of joshum blinding Bully? Xmas truly came early this year! Edit: dammit josh, its just a long intro! i hope the other 10 hours wont disappoint, just switch the brain from *speed mode* to *story mode,* lmao
I skipped to the credits just to hear what he thought of it, i dont want to really watch a playthrough if its all negative but from what he said it was like an up and down relationship, gave it a 7/10, some parts better than a 7, some worse.
@@thirdhandlv4231 Thats understandable, and a 7 is fair i guess, especially for the pc port, considering how awfully broken it is. Personally tho, its just one of those perfect games ill never get tired of, lol
It’s similar to playing SA back in 04-05. As a 10-11 year old, this game was soooooo much fun and sooo different. It has character and charm that gta can just never have

thanks josh I watched this all week fanastic playthough I brought the game on PC played it for about half an hour and thought meh dont wanna play it now. I want to play it all the way though
Bully is probably my third favorite Rockstar game behind SA on second Place and IV on first place. But i can totally see why someone wouldn’t like Bully especially if they never played it in their youth. Its definitely a product of its time and had much lower budget than other Rockstar games which you can definitely see if you take off your rose tinted glasses. Im glad Josh warmed up to the game a little bit.
Kinda sad you cut the technical issues (don't judge me, I enjoy your suffering XD) Thanks for the video though, it was SO good watching you play this forgotten gem ♥
@@Truxidious Absolutely not true at all. This port was made when GTA 5 was being started, not even developed but started as GTA 4 came out 6 months prior. It isn’t a bad port, it’s just aged poorly overtime with the way Windows changes memory management and they changed it so much in Windows 10 it causes corruption. May i remind you the game was completely fine on Windows 7 and lower operating systems.
@@shuraamano Bully 2’s development started after this port was made. Like i said, it isn’t a bad port, there was barely anything wrong with it, it’s just aged poorly over the years. This port was made in October 2008 while Bully 2 was being developed in 2009.
There were barley any, the game would only show a tiny circle or a quarter in the top right, so he ichanged the resolution and that was it. Widescreen fix would’ve helped him.
@@nickey_booooooo fair enough, although I do enjoy seeing Josh trying to fix things while chat is trying to help and usually make things worse, then Josh getting even more annoyed lol
All of his vods are uploaded to the VOD's channel (JoshimuzVODs). Unfortunatelly, it takes a while for them to be uploaded, even though they are raw unedited stream vods
@@frate2727 No it is not, SilentPatch fixes crashes, not screen issues. How do you think people played this game in widescreen before 2018 when the patch was made? Yes he had SilentPatch installed but it doesn’t mean it’s required for a standard resolution, it’s just that his monitor wasn’t compatible with Bully. He could’ve installed the Widescreen Fix but he didn’t.
Game is mid and makes sense as much as most of GTA games. Looking for logic in them is really pointless, unless you try to justify why every character in every GTA game kills tons of people in every mission. Anyway, game is really fun in it's mobile version on smartphones! Just something cool to play on the go
Played through Bully for the first time a few months ago myself, and maybe because I don't have the nostalgia for it and I simply missed the era it came out in, but sad to say I found it incredibly underwhelming.

Wonder how many in Bully ever cared about some "attention to detail" instead of harassing and assaulting children and adults(!) like normal people.
27:36
Oh really Josh? I couldn't tell, the way you've been radiating pure sarky boredom and saying "okay" every 30 seconds didn't give it away at all
"Definitely first intro attempt Joshimuz here.' So, he's getting the full modern Bully for PC experience...
damn i heard bully was awful on pc but i didn't realise it was THAT bad
@@CrashFan03 It really wasn’t that bad, he had a single issue which was widescreen, which explains why he is playing in 4:3.
We got THE Joshimuz playing Bully before GTA 6
Its fine to consider the soundtrack generic, i just want you to tell me what the golden standard is, what is a GREAT soundtrack if this one is generic.
Bullymuz finally plays his secretly favorite game
"nooo i won't teleport by getting busted cause I'll lose all of my stuff!"
doesn't use said stuff

Having played this game since it came out, watching you figure out art class was genuinely painful.

skipped to hour 10 and seen how he still fails art miserably.. that's just hard to watch..
@@slinergumble3593 same. i actually felt anger how he played this game. one of my favourites also.
Good to see that it has somewhat grown on Josh by the end, in the beginning he seemed to have a bad time with it.
Josh saying the music is "generic and mid" but its the first time ive heard him humming the games tunes while playing, lmao
@@zCREz "walking theme" is a certified banger
This game has only bangers tho 🥺
Literally the best sound track of any rockstar game ever. Shawn Lee killed it
He does sometimes hum the mission passed theme from San Andreas/vice City and since he has to play without radio it‘s the only music he hears. That being said I disagree with his opinion, Bully has great music.
@@mojabaka Thats true ofc, and tbf, not very strange after grinding the same few games every week for decades. 😂
josh is nitpicking hard when in gta most of this things is the same its just you didnt play it casualy since 2010 or whatever
1:02:47 "Don't any of you enjoy it."
Man, the lack of question mark on that subtitle totally changes the entire context
As someone that's Portuguese I couldn't stop laughing at you thinking Portugal was Greece 😭
As a Portuguese person, I can confirm we are Greece. :D
That's nothing compared to how Ukrainians feel

How thus lower budget shows itself here? Noticed it in LCS/VCS but not here,haaha.
eyyyy, i was so looking forward to see this ❤
I would like a video of just the segments where Josh attends classes xD
Kinda sad you cut the technical issues (don't judge me, I enjoy your suffering XD)
Thanks for the video though, it was SO good watching you play this forgotten gem ♥
I always thought the mission with the rats in the library was at the start of the game.
I love this game back in the day
I just think you weren't growing up with Bully as much as we do Josh. One of the best Rockstar game.
steam input and proton works fine for this, first time 🙂
The art class game is similar to Volfied, which is a game you should check out. It's like ACTUALLY good.
NICE, FINALLY
I was going to say it's about time you played bully
2:54:00 longest minutes start

5:32:23 whoops, audio issues

Seeing this game in 4:3 is so cursed.
Josh, why exactly did you not play in widescreen?
So, seeing 4:3 SA is totally fine.
But their other 4:3 PS2 era title - cursed.
Because he had issues with widescreen.
@@nickey_booooooo He has to install silent patch for widescreen to work.
