   Wow... this game is awesome. My wife and kids played this with me all weekend. It is a perfect update from the original 2 NES games. If you loved Bubble Bobble games then, you will love this one now.… Expand

   Bubble Bobble; who hasn't heard of it? The arcade classic that got melted into the hearts of gamers got a revamp. But is it any good? Well, me being the 15-year-old I am, I didn't grow up with Bubble Bobble, or in fact, the NES at all. The only Bubble Bobble game I remember playing was Bubble Sympohony in the arcades, and I loved it, so I thought I'd give this a try. My, my, was I annoyed at how late I was born. Bubble Bobble Neo! retains what made the classic, classic. You play as one of two dragons (yes, dragons, for those in the blue) and you have to go through 100 levels of enemy bopping to save yourself. I can say right now that after comparing the NES port of Bubble Bobble and this, I can say that the gameplay has been retained and features an amazing graphical improvment. It won't blow away games like Forza 3 on the graphics department, but for those that grew up with Bubble Bobble, it'll be eye candy. Also, the classic Bubble Bobble tune has been given an audio revamp, and, it's still one of the best songs in gaming history. It's just that song you don't want to stop hearing. You'll hear it in your dreams. And that's a good thing. To go along with the excellent classic mode, you have 100 new levels in Arrange Mode, which is very good for newcomers and Bubble Bobble fans alike. The new levels are just as good as the classic ones. Also, the ability to play the stages with FOUR players, is outstanding. All in all, I loved Bubble Bobble Neo! It's the most perfect remake I've ever played of ANY game. If you are a fan of Bubble Bobble, this is a no brainer. Either this, or the Wii version (which is the same, don't worry Wii owners!) But if you like your platformers, this one you should definatly check out. If you are some 11-year-old that loves Halo to bits, try the trial out. And if said 11-year-old hates it, then he is the one that's ignorant about how great Bubble Bobble is!… Expand

   An embarassment: the controls are unresponsive, the collision detection all over the place, the enemies are crazy fast while your poor dino seems to move in slow motion. The Bubble Bobble gameplay is still there but this is far inferior to practically every other version (most of which were programmed 20 years ago and are freely available on the internet)… Expand
