Presents Super Bomberman 1 - 3's Battle Mode.

I'll revise the verdicts for Super Bomberman 1 & 2 and render the verdict on after this. I genuinely didn't know Battle Mode could be done against CPUs. I'm an idiot for not checking.

Each game will be first-to-three.

Mega Man 7

Verdict: YES! Pile

+ It's Mega Man in 16 bits! Never gets boring. Good controls. Some truly inspired set pieces.
- A lot of predictable design. Too much sponge at times.

ASTERIX!

I normally dislike most brawlers, but Asterix uses a modified Turtles in Time engine, which.. hey, I loved Turtles in Time. This is loaded with personality and really good.

I want to thank everyone who suggested E.V.O., including , the official chooser of it for the charity drive. Though I suspect that if he hadn't chosen it, a couple dozen other people would have.

I'm really enjoying this, and the warts can EASILY be ironed out

What's really REALLY interesting about Goof Troop is it's a non-linear game.

You have to find keys, items, solve puzzles. This is the natural evolution of an arcade formula. And it works really good, actually.
