The developers at Hudson must be laughing really hard now, as they released some new screenshots and especially some new artworks of Bomberman Act Zero. I can't believe how they managed to get characters of a Bomberman game to look this close to the manga Gantz.

Until now it looked more like that :
than like this :
Just get the original on Xbox live arcade. Even at 1200 points it would sell loads for little or no dev costs and make a ton of profit!
P.S.: hudson, please gimme a new bonk!
If this is an arcade game, then fine. For a full retail game though, the visuals look PS2.

I liked Bomber Man: Hero on the N64 though. I personally hope its not ALL in an arena like that.
If this is the rumored game then forget it alltogether, bomberman is dead :(
I think the fondest memories I have of bomberman are probably w/ the Sega Genesis and TG-16 versions..good times.
And I believe they're still considering/evaluating a real bomberman game for XBLA..give them time to work something out...if we're lucky we'll start seeing other Hudson games on there as well.
However, I think they could've even updated the artstyle and still keep some familiar style elements. This just seems like a totally different game, but with the same mechanics.
-and it does it look weird to anyone else having these style characters running around a rather basic grid? it just seems out of place to me.
I think it would be cool if they made it where the combatants drop bombs in more realistic environments in a completely 3d space, like a city block, a temple or something, an arena on another level, whatever..then the bombs would explode in all directions rather than just spreading in 2 dimensions.. more like a real explosion but still exaggerated with the spread. Then they could just include a more traditional "oldschool" version with the original-style art for nostalgia's sake (and, honestly, cuz the simplicity of that 2d style is fun too.)...then maybe i'd pay around full price for it.
