Another good example of a 2D game with ugly, busy looking 3D graphics.
Bub and Bob kept their human forms but wear dino costumes and blow bubble trumpets?
Speaking of which, just out of pure curiosity, was there ever an in-story explanation for how Bub and Bob became dinosaurs again for Puzzle Bobble, Bubble Symphony, Bubble Memories etc?
Apparently it's a different set of kids each time? I guess?
bubandbob.com wrote:[Rainbow Islands] is sometimes called "Bubble Bobble 2". However, two other games --"Bubble Symphony: The Story of Bubble Bobble 2" and "Bubble Bobble 2"-- claim the same name. Rainbow Islands happens after Bubble Bobble. Bubble Symphony happens after Bubble Memories, which is called Bubble Bobble 3, so Bubble Symphony is really Bubble Bobble 4 or 5. Bubble Bobble 2 also happens after Bubble Memories, so it is either Bubble Bobble 4 or 5. Bubble Symphony's song titles, which refer to Bub and Bob as "Grandfather", are true, then Bubble Symphony is Bubble Bobble 5 and Bubble Bobble 2, which features Robby, the "son", is Bubble Bobble 4. But then again, the intro of Bubble Symphony refers to Bubby and Bobby as the children of Bub and Bob, so Bubble Symphony is Bubble Bobble 4.
Congratulations if your head didn't explode. This is happy end.
But what about the two Game Boy Bubble Bobble games? The first one involved Bub getting some Moon Water or something for his sick brother Bob...I can't remember if they became kids at the end or not. And were the children of the original kids turned into dinosaurs as well, or born like that? What was the deal with the girl dinosaurs in Symphony (and Memories?)? Ahhh!
And I never got the chance to play Parasol Stars, is it any good?
Man, Taito need to put all the Bubble Bobble games on one disc. Or at least just Symphony and Memories.
I'd never seen the ending to Rainbow Islands until now...I always thought that the only connection it had to Bubble Bobble was that you were playing as the same kids. The plot thickens!

What's this about a Lemmings update?

Did you (or anyone, for that matter) play the GBA Bomberman? It was mind-numbingly easy, but incredibly addictive and fun.

Beware of the skull's blood!! Otherwise, you will lose your all lives!

Tournament or MAX 2? I had Tournament but I lost it.
You know, Jenkins, the incident with ChaosAngelZero has made me realize that you are a cut above the rest as far as being a noobie goes. You're a good sport, and I respect you for that.
Just kidding. In retrospect, you fuck cows, you god damn shitnipple.
I bought Bomberman DS, but the single player mode is so.. bland. Super bland. Bomberman 64 and the Super Bombermans had a LITTLE charm at least. It's as basic as Bomberman gets :\
I still have hope for Bomberman Story DS [Which should hopefully have online multiplayer].
I hate the new round heads they've given Bomberman. The Bombemo man shown in Act Zero is terrible as well.
You know that thing where you takes the nouns in a sentence and make a mental picture out them? Yeah, I've gotta stop doing that when I'm reading your guys' posts. It only leads to trauma.

I sent those to Dache back in July, eight months after the original request in the Boobies! thread.
And as far the cardinal sin of double posting, I honestly don't give a shit, because I can't do anything about it except call you a fucking pillowbiting fagmonger poop chute wanglicking cockjockey.
