Rockstar announcement coming today about Bully 360 patch (Update) photo

Well, it was a little longer than we were originally advised of, but it looks as if Rockstar has finally gotten around to addressing the issues with 360's Bully: Scholarship Edition. It isn't news of a confirmed patch release just yet, however -- what we are expecting is a "progress update", which could be word that the patch is ready or that it will be ready shortly.

Surely some fans will be displeased if today's announcement is merely waffling, but considering how Rockstar is stressing this is a "worldwide announcement", I choose to hope for the best. I personally appreciate the fact that they are scrambling to please disgruntled consumers, but like any normal gamer I can't help but wish they hadn't shipped the game out borked in the first place.

[Update: Rockstar just sent us a quick note to let us know that the patch is now available. Go ahead and grab it, and let us know if it's satisfactory or if we need to take a battering ram to Rockstar's doors. -- Nick

Even though it's being said to be a patch announcement, at that "world wide scale", am I the only one sort of hoping there might be some (free) DLC as well to compensate?

Oh well. I hope the patch fixes the problems. I've been dying to get a second run at the game for a while now (since I traded in my PS2 version).

The PS2 version doesn't have extra content, the PS2 version doesn't look as good in HD, and congrats, you're like the 994,801 person to say "DURR HURR PS2 VERSION WORKS"

And I'm guessing this happens in certain copies, mine's worked fine, currently at 75%, working toward 100%.

That's a negative on the patch. The framerate still blows when you go into town and there's more than 3 people on screen.

Epic Pic, but I prolly won't be suffering of any issues with this game, it simply doesn't appeal to me at all...

I'm definitely going to check this game out now. I wanted to play it on PS2 and never got around to it.
