About Me


Yo East Coast, where you at?

Hello, fellow D-toiders, my name is Andrew and I reside in New York City. It has been such an amazing experience being a part of this wonderful community. From my activities as a host of the Friday Night Fight events to becoming one of the community members responsible for handling the Destructoid NY group, coordinating East Coast meetups to helping the PAX meetup group, I have loved every minute of my time spent with this community.

Please hang out with other Dtoid members whether it would on the main site chat to your local Dtoid group. It can be life changing, trust me on that.

Crash and Burn: Unfortunately, the 360 port of Bully has game ruining glitches.
power-glove | 8:16 AM on 03.05.2008 20 comments


This is a warning to any one who was interested in picking up Bully may want to rethink there purchase as reports surface concerning the game's condition. News from xboxer.tv, states that some gamers are having many issues with the title including random freezes and a game crashing glitch that causes the game to restart.If EA ever does get there hands on Take-Two, hopefully more resources will go into their Q&A department.
Some quotes from the victims:
"Mine seems to freeze when the mist graphic occurs, like when you throw stink bombs and the green mist appears, it freezes. Froze just now on me like 4 times in a row. Thanks Rockstar you have joined the ranks of EA for this crap. Going back to EB tomorrow."

"Froze three times on me so far over the course of four or five hours. Every time it's been when I'm getting chased or I'm mixed up in a fight with multiple opponents. Not cool. Only thing we can do right now to lessen the sting is save as often as possible.

I've also noticed one second audio pauses while running around or interacting with people and while they aren't game breaking, they're definitely getting annoying.

I'd like to see pressure put on Rockstar to address these fixes in a patch but I'm not gonna get my hopes up."

Look, just because your copy is in good condition, that does not mean that others are not having issues. For example, a Gaf User said this, "At first I was thinking it my 360 was about to red ring when my game froze 3 times in a row, but then MaizeRage25 started saying in the official thread that he was having the same problems.. so I looked on GameFAQs... and some more people said their game freezed. I'm sure I could've found more if I looked harder.
Mine didn't freeze until I was around 2 missions before the Halloween one.. then it froze twice during Halloween. It finally let me beat it and I saved and quit." Yeah, there is a problem.

Hello snail.

Well, My copy of the game works just fine. And this is way too good of a game to passup just because a handful of people on the interwebs say there copys are destroyed.

I hate that such a dick has such a cool Batman avatar.

This report is widespread and evidently true, as I actually know people it's happening to.

Maybe you guys were better off getting in on the PS2 a year and a half ago. ;)

Move along, nothing to see here, weedgan's copy works up to chapter 2.

^haha.

Well, you know I think it really boils down to maybe bad burns of the game, maybe certain copies are slightly defunct. Because mine never froze up once, and I played it for about 5 straight hours when I got it. And I weant all around the town. all the way even around the carnival.

Also Booger goblin's avatar is awesome, gwar rules,

What about the Wii Version?

I assume it's jut a pure port of the PS2 one with some extra "touch that boy with the wiimote" "smoke the wiimote" tackyness tacked on.

Visc, your version has no reported problems that I know of.

Pretty bad. It runs fine on PS2. After all this time you'd think they know how to port a PS2 game to 360.
