Bully, also known as Canis Canem Edit, is a third person action-adventure video game released by Rockstar Vancouver for the PlayStation 2. The game was released as Bully: Scholarship Edition for the Xbox 360, Wii and PC and as Bully: Anniversary Edition for iOS and Android. Bully: Scholarship Edition was released by Rockstar Vancouver, with Mad Doc Software (now known as Rockstar New England), involved with the development.

References to Grand Theft Auto
Bully has several subtle references to the GTA franchise.
 * A Regina and a Stallion can be found in Shop class. The latter one is not a Diablo Stallion though since it has a different flame pattern and lacks a hood-mounted supercharger.
 * Sometimes, a female pedestrian might mention Liberty City in her dialogue.

References to Bully in Grand Theft Auto

 * Initially, in the mission Final Interview, Niko wrote in his resumé that he went to Bullworth Academy - however, after patch 1.14 it was changed to Bulford Academy.
 * A short segment of the Prefects' theme can be heard during the Benefactor Surano commercial on CNT.
