I agree, but it looks promising and its not 3d unlike bomberman zero..

And with live capability meaning mindless bombing multiplayer games...Should be classic yet fun game!

I'm definitely buying Bomberman. Since it's along the lines of the classic games, rather than the abomination that was Bomberman: Zero, it will be tons of fun.

Been playing with a friend for the last 3 hours and have to say its brilliant, there are a few annoying bugs i have noticed sometimes while running and smashing A you can end up trapping yourself in your own line of bombs, the computer AI also goes a bit loopy and decides to run into walls from time to time this only happened twice in three hours though so not too bad. Also sometimes kick and throw don't quite want to connect with the bomb. Even with these annoyances and this is me being very very picky considering they happened only a few times in three hours I had a blast with it (pun intended).

Also i would like the AI to be increased in difficulty some of the things they do leave you scratching your head.

I have to say the cowboy outfit is awesome, but just got the wizard one and the cigar head it looks bad ass, can't put it better than that.

^ yeah I noticed the walking into walls bug a few times. What annoys me though isn't the game itself, but people on Live. I've been close to getting 4 wins in a row achievement only for the host to drop so they can stop you (N) Think I'll have to host my own later :hmmm:

Wing Commander is pretty fun. I've never played any of the older games in the series, but I understand this is nothing like the original games, from what I've read. Though, it's still pretty fun, with the team based play and dogfights as well. And Super Contra is much harder than the first. Loving it already.

Anyone like Contra? I've finally beaten the game today on CO-OP. I'm missing the bulletproof achievement which means live off on credit. I love me some Contra! Hows Super-Contra..anyone played it yet?

I love Contra. Super Contra is more of the same, but 10x harder. I can probably help you out on that bullet proof achievement. I've got them all, myself.
