Bomberman 64: The Second Attack!
Review by whitemanup
"Bomberman flames up the N64!"
In Bomberman 64, The Second Attack, you find many elements a good game has. Multiplayer, a Story Plot, tricky puzzles, and it even has a sidekick! The game brings a strong challenge and in my lists below, it ranks high.
Graphics: 10/10- Realistic colors! My eyes sparkled at the intense colors in it's 3D action! Anyways, sometimes I think I AM Bomberman when I look at those realistic Graphics..... WONDERLIKE!
Gameplay: 9/10- Fun. The only problem is going back and forth. Do one task, open a door earlier in the stage. Do it the task in there, go further to a far area you've been before. Anyways, all the available bombs in the game blast this game well.
Sound: 10/10- The music and sound ''Booms'' with power. The bomb noise brings well sound, while the music brings the addictive touch to the levels. Don't play with your volume down!
Story: 10/10- I'd do the same thing if all the planets in the universe were taken control over by some looney nuthead. This is a game that actually has a story with meaning in it(Well, so do the others, but anyways....). You can get the universe back, right?
Audio/Video: 8/10- I like the Videos we get at the beginning of every stage. Gives me an idea of what I'll be dealing with. However, when you lose mid-boss battles, those videos get so annoying..... they play over, and over, and over every time you meet up with that boss.... ugh..... Anyways, it's still overall well.
Replay Value: 10/10- Even after you beat the game, it still has plenty of replay. Watching Pommy evolve into new forms puts extra value into the game. I could beat the game, then start another file and evolve him all over again. It's fun. Plus, there's also one other reason....
Multiplayer: 10/10- Another reason why this game has fabulous replay. There are many modes to play, and each on several maps. However, it might not be as much fun as having a couple other people to blast out the action with.
Buy or Rent?- Buy. It has enough Replay Value to be worthy enough to be purchased. However, if you're not a Bomberman fan, you can rent it first. But otherwise, just buy it! Don't let your collection rust up!
Overall: 9/10-With the exception of a few annoying Video Cinemas, this game is great for your N64, and outta this world! A must have Bomberman game! Good Luck when you get this game!
