GS Bomberman Blast Hands On

Quote:

Bomberman has been around for 25 years and it still never gets old. The classic game of dropping bombs on your opponents has had many variations and new additions. At the Penny Arcade Expo 2008, we had a chance to play with Bomberman Blast, a WiiWare title that will allow players to play online with the Wii for the first time, with up to eight players.

The traditional Bomberman free-for-all mode still pits players in each corner so that they can try to take each other out by dropping bombs and picking up power-ups. There are three new items that will change up the gameplay and are used by shaking the Wii Remote. You can change yourself into a bomb, use a rocket to jump into the air and bring up a shield to protect yourself while you shake the remote. One of the new modes includes dodging and air raid where the goal is to simply stay alive and avoid the bombs. Another has you jumping into a spacecraft where you can fly around and drop bombs on others.
