    It looks great, it sounds good and it plays like a real dream, the simplistic gameplay revealing hidden depths and strategies the more you play, with plenty of hilarious moments of death or glory in every game you can play. Blowing up your friends really has never been so much fun!

    Every 360 owner needs to make this part of their collection. Just make sure to step away from your chair, and occasionally embrace reality; something I often have the custom of forgetting.

    Enough of the old charm shines through for the eight online or local players to have a blast. [Issue#24, p.100]

    Light, comical and explosive! This is easily the best game on XBLA and without a doubt delivers the best online gaming experience I've ever had. Bomberman Live is gaming greatness and non stop fun at its very best. It was super easy to pick up and play (within minutes) and people of any age will love it! Finally! we have a game that knows what games are all about (NON STOP FUN!), and once you pick it yup you won't be able to put it down! A definite a must buy!! Awesome game! Woot!… Expand

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