Nintendo PowerIt's dynamite.

netjakI love the series and the latest installment is worthy of a purchse...While I prefer the Dreamcast version a tad more.
-
Plays like Zelda with bombs instead of swords and shields.

TotalGames.netGames are meant to be fun and Hudson couldnt have squeezed more fun into Bomberman Generation if it tried.

Electronic Gaming MonthlyLoads of awesome game types to play with your buds. [August 2002, p.136]
-
GameNowI figured there was no way that the gameplay could be as good as the graphics. It didn't take long for BG to prove me wrong. [August 2002, p.52]

For the sum of all its explosive elements, Bomberman Generation is a lighthearted, yet unexpectedly entertaining title.
-
An engaging and addictive game.
-
The GameCube engine is used well to convey the feeling of playing within a cartoon world and the play balance is just right for young and old players alike.
-
Game InformerWhile the single player is rather ordinary, the multiplayer mode makes Bomberman Generation a must for GameCube owners with friends. [August 2002, p.82]
-
The cel-shaded graphics are appropriate for once, and are also well done.
-
The gameplay is so enjoyable, however, that it should almost be required to at least try - especially the multiplayer mode.
-
1) It's a blast to play. 2) There are a ton of extra items to collect and lots of hidden (albeit small) areas to explore. 3) The multiplayer mode is very explosive (in other words, it rocks).
-
It's actually excellent.
-
A short but sweet single player (around 10 hours), an endlessly re-playable multiplayer.
-
As good a version of Bomberman as there ever has been, complete with a fairly interesting single-player adventure and plenty of variations for the multiplayer side of things.
-
A playable release. The multiplayer mode is as excellent as ever, and even though the single player mode lacks the magic of the multiplayer, it isnt that bad really.
-
While the adventure mode has a short wick, a robust selection of multiplayer options extends the life of this title and certainly makes it worth investigating, particularly for younger fans of the Bomberman franchise.
-
Play MagazineSoaked in Club Med tunes, predictable, by the numbers gameplay, and slow methodical pacing; in other words, it ain't the bomb. [Aug 2002, p.71]
