Fun game, especially because of multiplayer mode!

The adventure mode of Bomberman is fun to play on a boring day by yourself. The game is pretty short, but with the Karabon creatures, (which help you finish your adventure) the game has many puzzles that will leave you trying to get all the Karabons. But where the game really shines is its multiplayer mode. You get to bomb other players while collecting items to improve your bombs and trying to dogde other bombs. The stages are carefully planned out and all have their different features, like warps and pipes that hide bombs. It's not hard to get friends to play if there's a game link cable and a few extra GBAs, because of the single-pak multiplayer option. As you can see, this game is very fun for people who like adventures, collecting, and puzzles or if you just like a good multiplayer game. This game has a little something for everyone!

Keep On Bombing!!

If you've ever played the N64 game Bomberman64 or the gameboy game you know all about Bomberman, but if you don't I'll tell you. Bomberman is basically about a little dude who goes around on quests while using bombs for his weapons. The gameboy Advance game has a fully intact quest mode, but the crown and jewel of the game is it's multiplayer mode. With the multiplayer mode you and up to 4 friends can play against each other or in teams and try to blow each other up. Best of all, you only need one cartridge to play with up to four friends. This is one awesome game!!!

It's a BLAST!

I played the first bomberman back in 1989 on the NES. What an addicting little puzzle game. Race around, bomb blocks, get powerups, hit enemies, make sure to stay out of the plus shape your bomb explodes into! 12 years later, Bomberman tournament graces the GBA. Beautiful graphics, music that won't drive you up a wall immediately, and a quest mode that's just like Zelda (kill enemies to open doors, get special items to move blocks or warp or shield) minus the sword, but ooh the bombs! With 6 different upgrades, you won't run out of ways to slaughter your enemies. The Karabon creature system used in the quest mode is just a way of giving your powerups something else to do. They are very easy to 'train' I found.. Bomb everything you can (plants, rocks, etc) along your way of the quest and you'll find enough powerups for your Karabons that you can (thankfully in my opinion) ignore most of this poke-ish part of the game. The tournament mode is a lot of fun also, bringing back the joy of original Bomberman style competition, and adding a lot of replay value to the game after you've beaten the quest. If only Zelda had a mode like this -- that would stick you in a room with 3 other Links and some random powerups. =) Heavily addicting, sometimes frustrating, but always enjoyable!

THIS GAME IS GREAT. It never runs out of fun. It mixes up bomberman, zelda and pokemon features. Its not a game u can beat in a few days.(unless your really good) along your journey you can get karabons pokemon like monsters for help.and the battle mode is good but its even better when you play it with friends

Some may remember Bomberman back as a one player puzzle game. Than later he grew into a party game with an incredible multiplayer funfactor. From there he grew and blossomed until his last great game on the Sega Saturn under the name of Saturn Bomberman, where you had a total of ten players on one screen try and blow the hell out of eachother. Then there were a few sad attempts on PSX and N64. Now he is back.

Bomberman Tournament reverts back to the over the top screen play for multiplayer as in the days of yore. 4 players competing consecutivly in the multiplayer aspect. There are 8 arenas to compete in each with a different stipulation. Whether it's pipes, landmines, conveyer belt and what not.

Now that is not the only aspect. There is also and incredible good, and fun story mode. A disturbance somewhere in the solar system has provoked Bomberman's buddy Max to investigate, a few weeks later when he doesn't respond to calls the Doc. sends in you, Bomberman to find out what the problem is and fix it. You land on a planet and in a Zelda like style try to save the planet from the Evil Bombers once again. Along the way you gather little critters on the planet which provide you with unique powerups. These include swimming, opening doors, remote bombs, or teleportation. You can also use these critters in a fun mini game, which is actually need to compete in at the end of the game.

Overall Bomberman has come a long way from the little demolition robot who wanted to be human. He has had many adventures and many cherished memories for gamers world wide. He is one of the few gaming icons that we will never forget. God bless you little Bomberman.

da bomb(not a pun)

Bomberman Tournament is an awesome game. When I first got the game for my birthday, I didn't know what to expect. But after I started playing it and got the hang of it, it became really, really fun. It is a lot like the original bomberman, only this one is an adventure game. Another thing is that your bombs can be upgraded. Also, there are these creatures called Karabons that can be trained and they can be used in battles. It might be hard for you at first, but keep at it and it (if your like me) will probably get really fun. It is a rather hard game (but not too hard) so it will keep you busy for a while. The only thing is that the time in between bosses is a little short, but otherwise this is a really, really, really great game!!! Anyone who liked the orginal bomberman will loooove this one.

I love this game! ...wait. There's an RPG included?!

The multiplayer feature rocks. Picture this: Up to four people can play with one game pack, you can play in eight different levels, along with revenge and a fishing mini-game. Now, that would be worth the price of the game, right? Well, there's more! There's a Bomberman RPG-type game too! And it's very long! It took me two hours to get out of the first forest! Trust me, you'll have a blast(get it?) going through this game. You can collect Karaboms to battle and help through different obstacles. There's puzzles to solve, missions to complete, bosses to battle. There's even more stuff to do, but you just have to pick it up for yourself! This is a must-have for any Bomberman fan. And even if you're not a fan, just try this game!

WHAT a surprise!!

I have never been disappointed with a Hudson based game :) I thoroughly research a game before purchasing it. Read reviews on here and on Game Faqs.comThis is one of the few, unadulterated games I have played, apart from Golden Sun, in awhile. The quest is VERY original-Zelda-type and addictive. ACTUALLY enjoyable. This is Bomberman fun with a nice blend of RPG..unfettered. I cannot stand those platform RPG combos (The latest Zelda games)...very few pull that off effectively. Bomberman Tournament is a great game for those days when you don't want to break your fingers and controller. SURPRISINGLY fun game!!If you want epics this is not for you. If you want fun gaming with some challenge...this is it!PS: BTW according to Nintendo The Legend of Zelda is not an RPG but has always been classified as an action adventure. Was I surprised with that one :)
