    The game is so addiction and fun to play with friends and by yourself. Best game from the XBLA.

    One of the best Xbox 360 Live Arcade Games!!! Graphics is not awesome, but for Bomberman is good and this is game from Nintendo for Xbox, this is not bad and in this game not storyline, but this game isn't must have story, because there is good local game with bots and online game with real people, very good game! Best game about Bomberman.

    Bomberman is primarily a multi-player game that sees up to four players attempting to blow up all their opponents by dropping bombs within a selection of mazes. Back in the Mega Drive and PSone days I spent many an hour playing Bomberman with friends and this is the same game it always was. The only disappointment for me is the 3d graphics that actually make it harder to see clearly whatBomberman is primarily a multi-player game that sees up to four players attempting to blow up all their opponents by dropping bombs within a selection of mazes.

    Without doubt the best XBLA arcade title yet! Buy more pads, invite your mates, order the pizzas and crack open the beers.

    Great game, after the awkward Bomberman Zero, we finally get a game worthy of carrying the Bomberman name again. For those of you who fell in love with the Bomberman games way back in the early 90's, Bomberman Live is a must buy, and for newcomers? Even they should check it out, it's simply the best multiplayer XBLA game to grace the 360 at the moment.

    The most well-rounded and customizable game currently available on Xbox Live Arcade. The graphics are crisp, the animations fun and the options are many. It's so good, it even makes up for Bomberman Act Zero. Yes, it's THAT good.

    The full Bomberman experience with a ton of options and addictive online mode. XBL Silver members approach with caution.

    The game is a ton of fun, very dynamic in terms of gameplay, and more than worth the asking price of 800 Microsoft Points ($10USD).
