8 Player Saturn Bomberman with 8 real people :)
8 Player Saturn Bomberman with 8 real people :)
I have a group of friends, not unlike many, who get together for Halo parties. They do it once a week. Usually we get 8-10 people and hook up 3 TVs or so.
One week I decided I was going to bring over Saturn Bomberman and my Sega Saturn.
Everyone agreed they would give it a try. I have 2 of the 6 player multitaps and about 10 controllers.
I was very pumped that these new younger gamers were down to play some Saturn. 2 people didnt know what the saturn was. The rest of the people were so amazed to see a Sega Saturn that they took pictures with their phone to show their friends they were playing a Sega Saturn in 2010.
But after all the dust settled, we started up the game, and rolled with 8 players in person.
It was fantastic. In fact we played for 3 hours because everyone loved it so much. Safe to say we may have some more Saturn Bomberman parties before all is over.
Very cool that I could get the Saturn to become a party system option to Halo 3!
Below is a picture I snapped of what it looks like on TV. Its a 55 inch LED TV BTW so it was very viewable. Ill try to take a video next time we play so Youtube purposes. (and yes my friends kitty has a cone around its neck!)

It is Bonk from the old Turbo Graphix games. My friend who chose that character pointed it out.Manji wrote:that's pretty sweet.
for some reason the character with the bald head in the top banner looks like bonk to me.

I just bought Guardian Heroes last week. There was enough time or we would have tried a 6 player battle. A friend and I unlocked a ton of characters too for the battle mode.wip3outguy7 wrote:Awesome story! The Central Texas Racketboy.com members are getting together for a meet at Game Over next Friday. I really hope we can get a 6 player Guardian Heroes match going. We wanted to try Bomberman but no one has it. Maybe next time.

We played about 4-5 series. Each series the first to 5 wins won it.
I won 3 series and one of my friends won 2.
The last series of the night, one of my friends girlfriends took me to the brink. She had 4 wins but couldnt get the 5th win.

Nice to see that some other people also enjoy bomberman saturn sessions. I do them regularly with 5-8 players and it is really fun!
Also the less experienced players have a lot of fun because they can still participate as mad bombers. Some of them practiced that to perfection because they die so often .
Usually my friend (who owns also a saturn and a copy) or I win all the time but it is always a hard battle since gaming becomes so crazy when 6 mad bombers try to blow you up because you have 4 wins
The cat is really cute! I need to get one by myself
