Not big on Yie Ar, but Bomberman is looking awesome.

Finally! Yie-Ar at long last. Been waiting for Konami to finally get around to releasing this on XBLA. So that should do it then for all their oldies previously issued on the Konami Arcade GBA cart. I used to love playing Yie-Ar on the Commodore 64. Always one of my top faves. Haven't ever really played a shitload of Bomberman, but I'm sure I'll pick that up as well.

Justin,

Basically you have this little kung-fu fighter and he has to go through various stages beating different oppenents one at a time, each with his own special weapon. There's a dude with a pole, a guy with a chain, a chick with throwing stars, and so on. The action and control is really fast, which makes it a lot of fun. It was hyper fighting years before the Street Fighter franchise came up with such an item. It's definitely one of those games that I think has held up very well over the years because it's easy to get into, has lots of replay value, and is one of those games where just because you absolutely kill on it once through doesn't mean you will the next.

Everybody has a game coming out on XBLA they could not wait for. Yie Ar Kung Fu is my game. I played this game so much in the arcade and still play it all the time on MAME.
The next one I want is Track & Field.

I thought I was "the man" when I finally beat Blues on the Commodore 64. Kung Fu action at it's finest. Just when you think it's over, it starts all over again.
