I have bomberman, but on a nes

Malc

I have Bomberman on the Saturn with 2 multi taps and ten controllers.

It's a lot of fun.. Although, I've only ever played it with that many people once.

Anyway.. I *think* I have this so I may be willing to play! Tuesday night is best for me.

Assuming we are talking Bomberman Live on Eggboksen, I am in.

I would play but unfortunately Im away next week so cant. If people are willing to have a warm up game on saturday, Id be up for that.

I shall play.

If anyone doesnt have the game its 800 points and you can get it here :

(you want the bit that says full game)

BTW has anyone tried out the 'new' version of this (not the 3d one) it was released just before Xmas (Bomberman battlefest http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/Produ ... 02584109b2)

Yep, probably nearer 8.30 than 9.30 would be when i'm around.

I'd be in because I think I actually have this. And haven't played it yet.

Me, please.

a lovely, haven't played with mimi in ages..

today or tomorrow?

I can do either - pick one and we can just spam people online with invites at that point.

If I'm around I'll play, I've had it forever & never touched it*, plus I've not played with any of yies in forever.
*There was some free offer back when I bought my Xbox, the best game out it was Marble Blast Ultra.

Either day is good for me, Romanista.

let's try today then..

Okey blokey!

I will be able either today or tomorrow, but not both, and I won't know which until the last possible moment. Oh the joys of living in Spain, where every plan is provisional.

Actually, I do kind of enjoy that.

I won't be able to join in tonight but please don't let that stop you!

I'm sure it wouldn't anyway...

My Xbox is now on.

I'll be in BLOPS for a while - however will switch over to Bomberman at 20:30 , or if anyone arrives before that shoot me a message / invite.

Some good games tonight - and 6 people is a blast (literally :-)

Happy to switch rulesets and powerups out but its probably better either sticking with the basic ones for a while or playing shorter than 10 round matches :-)

3 in each room?

Thanks for the invite, but I was knackered and didn't feel much like being social (no change there, then).

Actually a game where i won more things that i lost, and even got a cheevo, yeah!

had a great time, and mimi, am i now respectable again as a gamer after the Halo fiasco?

@myoptikaka, would have loved to blow you up

Hehe, the Halo night was one of my favourite gaming memories, you never lost any of my respect for that

That was great fun! Good idea romanista.

I was expecting Mimi to have a broad lancashire accent, like in that Monkey Advent video.

I dont think she was quite prepared to be overrun by Scot's

hehe, no I am from Kent/London. Derrp

I did not realise so many people were Scottish, though. I had a hard time working out who was who for a bit.

By Scot's what? His rakish moustache and monocle combo?

Next week Romanista needs to put on a Scottish accent for the match.



Does that help (I have Dimlies turned off)?

BTW Romanista , if you play the normal game a while you'll start to unlock some of the other costumes, if you wear a cowboy outfit and kill someone else wearing one you get an achievement (I typically leave the cowboy outfit as default because of this)

Well you had Dutch, Danish - Lasermink?, Extremely Scotch* (me) and Glaswegian (Zaphod).

Lasermink is Danish? See, I didn't realise that!

Here is my 'Learning Dutch' mug:



It's full of coffee at the moment.

Haha! That's not stereotypical at all

Excellent. I wonder what a Scottish version would look like..

I thought Lasermink was from Spain.

We need a crib sheet.

Kalmar's not scottish.

I thought he lived in Portugal but comes from Denmark.


And, how dare you!

To be fair they are painted by a Dutch girl from Holland, so any stereotyping is done by the artist. The little accompanying booklet says that she has chosen to paint 'typical Dutch items'. There are a few different designs available. A mutual friend of the artist and myself sent me the mug as a gift along with many (many) stroopwafles, so I think she chose this mug from the series so I would not forget the name of her favourite snack.

I like it! Also stroopwaffles, which are best if you put them in the toaster until they reach molten lava temperature.

No! You're supposed to balance them on top of your coffee cup, like a lid. This warms the waffle and melts the caramel. I'd be worried that the caramel would break the toaster if I heated them that way. I'd also electrocute myself trying to get them back out.

I am Danish and currently live in Spain. And I suck at Bomberman.

You should have joined me and a Dimrill. We had lots of fun.

You should've told me you'd stopped playing Serious Sam.

Oh look who's awake.

So do we have enough people interested to do this again next week, and if so can I suggest Tuesday (since Monday is Valentines day)

I'm interested again next week..

@mimi, that is one lovely mug, could you send one to teach me to learn to speak scottish..



shame it doesn;t keep longtime stats mariokart wii way...

Yep, sorry, will try and make it next tuesday. Started wayching curb your enthusiasm this week and forgot the time.

i did once start a presentation about the urban planning system of scotland at University by quoting a part of braveheart "Here are Scotland's terms. Lower your flags, and march straight back to England, stopping at every home to beg forgiveness for 100 years of theft, rape, and murder. Do that and your men shall live. Do it not, and every one of you will die today."

my professor was kinda shocked and start 2 years later his speech to give me my Master's degree by making a reply to that, which was kinda amazing\


a bit like this

I would like to do this, dunno about next week, but I'd like to do this, although if it's monday, I have a very limited window (basically between 20:00 and 21:00 - depending on when the kids go down - and then after 22:00)

Malc

tomorrow?

I have been to the newsagent, laid down my £1.99 and now have this.

I'll probably be on after 9.

Ac-Milan vs Spurs tomorrow so maybe not...

ah, i mioght want to see parts of that too.. i'll see qwho's online
