Bomberman Tournament for Game Boy Advance (GBA)

Pros: ::Battle-mode rules::
Cons: ::I hate Pokemon::

Despite a descent launch of the Gameboy Advance gaming library, it has been a struggle ever since to maintain that kind of quality in some of the latest games to be released for this hot handheld. As you may have read in some of my recent...

Pros: Multiplayer mode- one cartridge, 4 GBAs, full multiplayer!
Cons: Quest mode is boring, old.

Few games define the console multiplayer experience like the Bomberman games. Its simple approach makes it accessible to all while its fast paced gameplay keeps its repetitive nature from boring players.

Since its NES inception it's had...

Pros: the battle mode
Cons: Quest mode is not very creative

It's times like these when you feel great owning a Game Boy Advance. For the library of games that we have been getting acquainted with in less then a month have already shaken our lives upside down. Remakes have been created, Series have been continued,...

Pros: Multiplayer is a deep, entertaining romp for up to four friends.
Cons: Quest mode and turn based creature combat could have been done better. Graphics standard.

When I purchased my Gameboy Advance, this was one of the games I looked forward to with eager anticipation. The very thought of linking up with three other friends for some classic explosive Bomberman action was more than enough incentive for me to lay...

Pros: Superb gameplay that stands the test of time flawlessly.
Cons: It could have been better in both the quest and Multiplayer modes.

So: one of the greatest gaming concepts ever makes it’s debut on the successor to the most successful gaming platform ever (on sheer numbers at least). Surely the ultimate recipe for either success or embarrassing disaster.

Bomberman for the...

Pros: 4 player link; classic bombs; great graphics; revised battle; I love bomberman (See other reviews)
Cons: Charabom's mistranslated into Karabons (um...); suddenly Pommydoesn't know you (he saved the universe with you..)

The newest installment in the somewhat unofficial "series" Bomber Man MAX, which starts with the evil battles against Rukifelth, and ends up here. In Bomber Man MAX, you meet some bomber with the Electric Bomb, (Found in Baku-Bomber Man 64 2), named Max....

Pros: battle mode, replay value, battle mode options
Cons: quest mode too short, pokemon-ish additions

If you've played one bomberman game, you've played them all. They could pretty much put any type of bomberman game on GBA and people would buy it. Portable bomberman...that's all most people want; especially the ability to engage in the infamous...

Pros: Fantastic Multiplayer, Good use of color.
Cons: Slow Adventure Mode

Its an all new Bomberman game, but unfortunately it may not live up to all expectations. If you plan to get this game, you should definitely ask yourself: "what am I expecting?"

STORY

A very basic story- Bomberman's rival/friend...

Pros: Fast paced multi player fun.
Cons: Not enough multiplayer arenas

First off, I must say that this is the BEST Bomberman game that I've played so far. Okay, now that the introductions are out of the way, we'll get on to the more important stuff.

Gameplay-10/10
Now this is where this game shines. There...

Pros: Great multiplayer fun! Lives up to the bomberman legend.
Cons: Single player mode could use a lot of work

I recently purchased Bomberman Tournament for my GameBoy Advance, and so far I've had mixed feelings about the game. First off, it's still the same Bomberman we all know and love, with the same 4 player option that makes it so much fun. But the one...

Pros: Best multiplayer game available for GBA, only one game to play with 4 players
Cons: The quest part lacks originality, the Battle part misses some interface features.

As being a massive Bomberman fan, I was looking out a lot for this game. I played a lot of Bomberman on different platforms and the Wario version on the regular Gameboy was my favorite.

When I bought the game, I was very eager to play. It was...

Pros: Multiplayer maddness! it's bomberman.. what more could you want?
Cons: Poke.. no..Digi?.. Mega....hmm Monster Rancher..ish?

Quest..or Battle.. That is the question.

We'll start with Battle since it's the easiest to understand.

In most battles (excluding high powered mode) you start in the corner. Luckly a little arrow is given to point out which of those...

Pros: Single Game Pac Multiplayer, Easy controls
Cons: Normal GBA Game Cons(lighting, glare, etc)

So you think placing a few bombs down to kill baddies while avoiding their explosion is an easy thing huh? Think again. Bomberman Tournament can turn out more difficult then one might guess. There are 2 modes in the game; Quest and Battle.

...

This game is cool because you can play with 1 gamepak with 4 friends in battle mode. There not only is battle mode but also adventure mode.
