Pros
Pro Fun combat system
The combat in the game is actually well fleshed out, allowing the player to string combos when fighting in the game. Often games of this type have simple controls that only do the basics, but Bully actually went a step beyond and created fighting mechanics that are fun and intuitive.
Pro Good mix of missions
The games missions allows for the player to explore the world the game is set in, from the school, to environments that involve characters from the school. It feels like a fleshed out world that has a good mix of missions making for a game that does not ever feel stale.
Pro Interactive, hackable city
Throughout the game players can use their in game phone to hack items in the city such as red lights or draw bridges.
Pro Fun multiplayer
The multiplayer is a bit like Dark Souls where other players can invade the players world with a twist of them hiding in plain sight while trying to hack the player.
Pro Limited co-op play
There is co-op offered in Watch Dogs but it is limited to specific points in the game where players can work cooperatively or competitively to complete a task.
Cons
Con Frequent crashes to desktop
It will consistently crash to desktop (CTD) about every 15-30 minutes. It does not make any difference if you attempt to set compatibility to XP SP3, limit CPU affinity to core 0, or even set "run as admin", either.
Rockstar's apparent solution, other than releasing a v1.3 patch, is for you to limit your entire system's usable RAM to 1GB. Which you obviously can't do on any Windows OS beyond XP without incurring a BSOD loop.
Con Terrible performance years after release
Notable drops in framerate during the Chemistry and Music minigames, on machines well above the recommended hardware many years after release.
Con 30 FPS cap
Bully: SC is limited to running at 30 frames per second.
Con Uses stick-based gesture gameplay even when mouse is in use
The game was not updated to show icons for mouse and keyboard controls, leaving the port showing analog stick control tutorials in the game, even if they are not being used at all.
Con Character is boring and gloomy
The character played in the game has a boring and uninteresting story as well is normally gloomy and downtrodden making it somewhat of a chore playing as such an uninteresting character.
