Bomberman: Act Zero for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

What happened? It's hard to imagine a game as simplistic as Bomberman being that easy to completely screw up, but they managed to do it somehow. My biggest question: where's all the fun? They took the main idea of Bomberman and just removed everything that made it great, and we got this stinking pile instead. I remember sitting around with my friends playing Super Bomberman on the SNES with the multitap - 4 player action at its finest. Now, with Act Zero, they've changed the viewpoint to some crazy third-person. They changed the look of Bomberman to some big stupid-looking robot instead of the huge-headed, ball-fisted oddity that I know and love. They changed the very mechanic of the game - the one-shot kill. The adrenaline doesn't start pumping if I'm not always scared to die, which takes multiple bombs in this game to do. Imagine Frogger if one hit didn't kill him. It completely changes the game!!! What they should've done is released Super Bomberman on Live Arcade and saved themselves the time, effort, and money they wasted making this garbage. They'd sell more copies that way. At least this game is appropriately named: Act Zero. This game earns a 1 only because Gamefly won't let me go any lower.
