Bomberman Generation

Do some companies hire monkeys to compose their games' storylines or something? It would seem so at times...Here comes the clich

 

To be honest, I do not think the word 'bland' does enough justice to what is such an uninspired and generally weak in-game soundtrack. Not only that, but if you do decide to suffer it, you will find very quickly that it also becomes extremely repetitive

 

The removal of the multi-player mode in Bomberman 64 was an oversight that only maybe an amoeba could be forgiven for, then it returned in the N64 sequel...but was all wrong. The viewpoint was an elevated over-head view, with 3D arenas and a static camera, meaning that in certain places you couldn't see where on Earth you were, thus reducing battles to a tedious trial and error format. The same criticism was thrown at the single-player modes

 

As is plastered across the back of the game box there are 'Six Worlds with Massive Bosses!', 'Challenging Mini-Games!', 'Four-Player Mayhem!', 'A Brand New 3D Adventure!' and 'Classic Multi-Player Fun!' Whilst none of this is untruthful, I'm sure the need for so many exclamation marks was not exactly necessary...!!! Whoops, hehe. Anyway, the one-player adventure starts off relatively simple, leaving you thinking that it is bound to be easy to breeze through
