Critic Reviews

100 Games Radar UK (Pre-2006)
It does Sanrio Kittyness, it does scratched-up art weirdness, it does the Bust-A-Move house style, it does angled cartoon smoothness, it does colour, minimalism, random squiggles and it does it all with an enthusiasm that's so rare in all its rivals.
100 Hot Games
Although "Fantavision" is more colorful and uses more graphic power than Super BaM, this game is far more addictive, and a lot easier to play in two-player mode.
100 Daily Radar
Colorful, fun, hopelessly addictive and a great way to introduce others to videogames.
70 IGN
While there is nothing terribly extraordinary about Super Bust-a-Move, the game is just as addictive and crazy-making as it ever was.
70 GamerWeb Sony
It's a simple, colorful, cute, but undeniably addictive puzzler that's wonderful for the times when a heavy game with a steep learning curve will put off the casuals in the room.
70 GamePro
"Fantavision" has prettier graphics, but the time-tested gameplay in Bust A Move makes the switch to the PS2 nicely.
60 Electric Playground
What is up with the baby?
54 GameSpot
The graphics may be unparalleled in the series, but fans of the series will be greatly disappointed by the lack of innovation and features.
50 GameZone
While extremely addictive, the lack of originality, lack of any recognizable structure, and lack of even the most cursory story line, makes this a mediocre game at best.
50 PSX Nation
There are far better prospects on the horizon which hopefully means BAM will get a clue and change.
40 All Game Guide
Just plain old Bust-A-Move, the same Bust-A-Move that we've been playing for the last decade.
