Will this taking of another cute franchise mascot with a long history and making him EXTREEM mean that the soundtrack will have nu-metal, too?

Also, note that bomberman is now more overtly gendered:
you have your choice of bulky codpiece or thong tha-thong thong thong

Ok, that's the THIRD time I've cliked new answers and misread this thread title as "First Person Bummer".

The spirit of the freakish "realistic" Megaman lives on!

from that link in the article:

Take the good old bomberman and mix it with the gritty look of Prince of Persia Warrior Within

ANOTHER SERIES THAT SURELY NEEDED ANGST AND EXTREEEMNESS

I am looking at this as an Iron Man game and feeling much happier.

What, you like your Iron Men with claws, chains, and/or thongs?

also, dark, angsty backstories; the cute little superdeformed explosives expert you THOUGHT you knew was really an alcoholic vietnam vet.

This wallpaper is beautiful. It's the chicken that makes it.

Shadow the Bomberman :(

― inert false cat (sleep), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 20:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Shadow is different from both this and the Prince of Persia makeover in that Shadow still fits the visual aesthetic of the Sonic universe; so what if he has a gun, it's a cartoony gun that looks like it shoots minty bubbles.

― Dan (Eureka) Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 20:43 (eighteen years ago) link

Sure, Shadow is rendered in roughly the same style as "hedgehogs" generally are in the Sonic games, but more important is the shift from fun/cartoony to the clearly more marketable dark/extreme/badass dude, which is a pretty tired move at this point. I mean if you come up with such a character from scratch and place him/her in an environment where that makes sense, fine; taking established characters/worlds and attempting to overhaul them to fit this mold is weak.

although if you actually get a minty bubble gun in shadow the hedgehog i may need to play it :D

i've always wanted one of those, you see
