"Oh! Bomberman your my Hero!"

Oh Bomberman, your the greatest!

Information:
Some people have said that the latest batch of Bomberman games on the Nintendo 64 have been flops, well I'm here to prove them wrong. Sure the latest Bomberman games are not like the old and highly addictive NES games, but like Bomberman Hero, they are still as tricky.

Introduction:
In Bomberman Hero, you have to - yes you guessed it rescue the Princess. Yep another princess rescuing game. But wait there is more, exciting and tricky levels that will keep you playing the game until you finish that annoying level so that you can point and laugh at a small black box and say 'HA! I won!', if this doesn't sound like what you would do, then try the game and I promise you, that there will be some levels that will make you want to throw the whole nintendo 64 unit out the window. But again I say wait. These levels have been made hard for a reason. What would a Bomberman game be without hardness, well it would be an Alex-Kid game.

Graphics:
The Graphics are nothing special, but they are not bad either. In some parts you will be struck down by the beauty of the game and in other parts (not that many) you will be asking yourself why?
TOTAL: ******/10 (6)

Sound:
This could be the part that turned everyone off this game. I thing it's not as bad as some other games that I have heard, but it would even get touched if George Lucus was looking for the next score for Episode 2.
TOTAL: ****/10 (4)

Gameplay:
This is the part that gets you into the mood of playing the game over and over again. With multiple levels and an end boss at the end of each big level, it is guarenteed to keep you playing it until you get so frustrated that you destroy the unit.
TOTAL: *********/10 (9)

Overall:
You should now be able to pick this game up really cheap, and if you love puzzle games I recommend it to you, as you will love it. Other than that, I gotta get back to playing it.
OVERAL TOTAL: *******/10 (7)
