Quantcast



Only five games out this week (Not including the downloadable titles), and three of them are Bomberman titles! I actually had chance to play all the Bomberman games last month and can tell you all that the games are great. It's basically one half Mario Party and one half classic Bomberman. I hate the story mode, as it slows things down, but the mini games are fun. The variations in classic Bomberman mode will help keep things fresh for a long time too.

Bomberman (any of the versions) are my picks for this week. What's looking sw33t to you?

WVC: 1080° Snowboarding
Wii: Bomberman Land
PSP: Bomberman Land, Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice
DS: Bomberman Land Touch! 2
PC: The Sims: Castaway Stories 

The Sims: Castaway Stories (PC -- Trailer is for the original game, not the expansion.)Bomberman Land Touch! 2 (DS) Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice (PSP)

Anyone else notice the copy of Super Bomberman on the shelf in the background in that trailer? Nice touch.

On the awesome side, Turok comes with a metallic raptor toothnecklace for preorders.

On the shit side, the game is shit, and is released next week. Thanks for clearing that up.

Banj: Usually when I post this, I don't have the XBLA info. Grim should have a separate XBLA post soon.

DanGale: No, not similar at all. Bomberman 64 was a full on adventure game where as this Bomberman has a story, but that is only to break up the minigames you play to progress the story line.

Wow, slow release week is slow. Also I have some fond memories of 1080, but I wouldn't buy it on the VC.

XBLA conspiracies to keep REZ out of my hands.

That's what it is.

1080 Snowboarding was and still is a good game. People generally (not always) just hate on the game because they suck at it.
1080 Snowboarding takes time to master, think of it as the Virtua Fighter of snowboarding games.
Don't forget to press the crouch button just before you land, practice makes perfect.

No retail games for me this week. Thank goodness I still haven't had time to start No More Heroes.

.....Rez will be a must if it does come out.
