XBLA (Last) Wednesday: Bomberman Fu

Filed in archive XBLA on July 20, 2007

With my 360 on its way to that big repair facility in the sky (err, in Texas) I managed to miss this week's Live Arcade releases. It's probably for the better that I found out about them two days late, though - that's two days I didn't have to know that Bomberman friggin' Live was out and I couldn't play it. Here's a rundown of the game features you're enjoying without me:

Created specifically for Xbox LIVE Arcade, the all-new "Bomberman Live" brings high definition graphics, four-person local multiplayer and eight-person online multiplayer over Xbox LIVE.

"Bomberman Live" will be available worldwide for 800 Microsoft Points and is rated E for Everyone.

*Prove you're the best: Play at home with up to four players or hop online and challenge the best Bombermen (and women!) from around the world with up to eight players.
*Fully customizable Bomberman: With over 10,000 possible combinations, players can customize Bomberman - from the gladiator outfit to the clown costume, or mix and match! Players can make Bomberman as cute or menacing as they like.
*Do battle in eight exotic locations: Compete in eight striking arenas, each with their own traps and gimmicks.
*Annihilate enemies with power-ups: Destroy blocks to reveal 16 distinct power-ups (and power-downs).
