90Jetters may not have the multiplayer diversity of a Mario Party, but for primitive addiction, it plays to form.
-
85If you haven't ever played a Bomberman game before, add a whole point to the final score and you've got yourself a definite winner.
-
80There’s more than enough compelling features on this one disc to warrant a purchase, especially if you’re the kind of person who puts those extra few controllers to use as often as possible.
-
I can't stress enough how chaotic and frenetic four-player matches are - you really have to play it to understand. [Dec 2003, p.158]
-
80The control in the multiplayer mode is a bit better than in "Generations," which is a good thing, as "Generations" had some rather stiff control issues.
-
It also distinguishes itself among platformers by letting the player control the camera at all times.
-
Personally, I think the game is worth it just for the multiplayer mode. I consider the single player mode an added bonus that you can play in your spare time.
-
75Bomberman fans aren't in for anything really new with Bomberman Jetters, but it's hard to knock yet another faithful adaptation of one of gaming's most successful gameplay formulas.
-
74Bomberman Jetters does offer a few new features but unfortunately not enough to substantially impact the gameplay.
-
The game now relies more on luck than actual skill and thinking; things such as mini-games, Charabom battles/merging and Coin Battle in Battle Mode have been taken out; and the game just seems too “cute” at times.
-
Single-player action is packed with minigames. Multiplayer action presents classic Bomberman play with a host of new selectable characters. [Apr 2004, p.122]
-
If nothing else, it should satisfy gamers looking for a good party game and a little more lighthearted fun during their breaks away from their more serious games.
-
Bomberman Jetters has its faults. Bad voice acting, dated graphics and a preternaturally challenging multiplayer AI all detract from the general experience it provides. However, they aren't enough to kill its charm, well-tuned gameplay and multiplayer allure.
-
Along with the beautiful anime cutscenes comes horrible voice acting.
-
67If you're thinking about picking this game up for the single-player experience, think again. It's simple, primitive, and frankly, boring, a description that adequately illustrates the title's visuals, too.
-
The single player mode is one of the worst attempts at a Bomberman adventure yet, and the multiplayer mode is fun but still sits below the bar set by multiple Bomberman titles that have released over the years.
-
60At times, the game's saccharine sensibilities make the challenges, though very real, hard to swallow.
-
60The few ways in which Jetters differs from its predecessor don't improve upon the formula in any way; instead, there is a heavier focus on an insipidly lame storyline and an almost completely unnecessary second playable character.
-
It has become a generic version of itself through its re-birth. It's not worth more than a rental.
-
50While the Bomberman franchise is chock full of potential, Bomberman Jetters squanders the good things it has going for it in order to serve up another dish of reprocessed mediocrity.
-
40A lackluster follow-up to the exceptional Generations, particularly because the enhancements here are non-existent.
