Activision Bomberman Tournament GBA
Bomberman has been around since 1990 and has starred on console system s as diverse as the Sega Saturn and the Nintendo 64. Consistently great gameplay makes it one of the few series that can always be counted on. Fortunately, the brand new Bomberman Tournament for Game Boy Advance is certainly no exception--it's a classic, through and through, with stellar gameplay and simplicity, all combined with a generous helping of action.
It features a simple single-player quest mode, but it is in the multiplayer option--you against up to three computer opponents or friends over a network of GBA units--that the full potential of the franchise is realised.
The puzzle-style gameplay is simple even for those new to the series. You've got to lay time bombs that trap your foes or obliterate them. Bombs also destroy obstacles and collect power-up tiles that give you new powers. Once all your opponents are destroyed, you win the level.
Typically, Bomberman's single player modes have been for practice, but this outing stretches the gameplay with eight large cities and a handful of dungeons. Bomberman is sent to destroy the enemy, including six giant bosses, and save the world in a somewhat Zelda-like environment. Yes, it actually has a plot and it's not bad for such a simple game.
The graphics are simple but well animated and the music is straight out of the previous games, including the stirring Bomberman theme song. The single-player quest is worthwhile, but taking on a friend in head-to-head combat is still what the game is all about. It's the best of both worlds and perfect for a handheld
