Yeah, I might have to grab that. I remember 8 player Bomberman marathons in our house back in college.

Bomberman + good company = great times...+ booze = hilarious times.

I do wish they would kill the MS points system though, and let me just purchase the value of the item I wish to buy, instead of a block of points. I hate that scam.

Bought this yesterday and proceeded to get my rear handed to me over and over and over again. :laugh: I killed myself with my own bombs more often than not because I wasn't paying attention. That and not realizing I was partially standing in the path of a bomb blast when I thought I had taken cover. Still a blast to play.

Just found out that you can get a proper top-down view by clicking the right thumbstick so I'll have to give that a shot tonight.

Never had a N64 so I couldn't tell you. Probably closer to the Dreamcast version except with customizable characters.

I bought this last night also and am still deciding whether I like it or not. I'll post back when I decide :)

I, too, have been getting my ass handed to me online..

You can do it top down or isometric.
