To buy or not to buy...

 I bought this game on the PS2 and adored it, but are there enough differences in the 360 version to warrant paying £20/$30 for it? Thanks!

I would love to buy this game myself, but I can never find it in-stock anywhere I go. And once I pay for shipping I feel as if I am ruining the point considering I beat it on PS2. If you can find it though, yeah, buy it!

Bully: Scholarship Edition is $20 on Newegg with free shipping.

@MatthewMeadows:  I'd say the game is definitely worth $30 new if you haven't played the PS2 version, but from what I gather from the Giant Bomb page, the additions aren't major and I recommend you pass unless you want achievements or just really enjoyed the game.

I played and loved Bully for the PS2 but when I tried to replay it for 360 it just wasn't the same as I remembered. It just wasn't as good as I remembered.

Go for it. I played both the PS2 and the 360 version and loved them both.

I think I'm gonna get it, just to have an excuse to listen to the game's music again! :) Thanks everyone!

The Wii version is said to be really, really good.

I don't have a Wii. I hear Jeff Gerstmann has one though (bombcast reference :p)

I'd say it's worth buying again only because I absolutely love the game and loved getting to play through it with a few new missions and slightly better graphics. It doesn't feature an amazing amount of new features, but there was enough for me and I spent $50 on the game! I know some people reported bugs with the game, but I personally never had a problem with any bugs at all. I also just wanted to support the game because while it did sell well enough to become a GH on PS2...it didn't sell as well as it should have (pretty sure it didn't even break a mil).
