Online Bomberman ") is a multiplayer game for theSega Dreamcast . It adds new ideas to the original formula with online play, new playing fields, and other extras. Bomberman Online's servers were shut down in 2003. Unfortunately the game does not allow "direct dial" play unlike it's cousin (Saturn Bomberman), which means muliplayer is now restricted to offline only.toryline
Bomberman enters the Bomblympics to retain his title as the hero of Planet Bomber. The Bomblympics pits its combatants in a series of trials against one another. There seem to be six contestants this year in the Bomlympics, with Bomberman being one of them. The contestants must make it inside each of the other contestant's designated bases to set up their trials. Each contestant must run through the trials, and make it to the contestants throne room, where in a duel they must defeat one another. Being the current hero of Planet Bomber, Bomberman is given the chance to go first, and he makes his way through each of the other five bases of the other contestants, winning each and every time. None of the other contestants are ever even given a chance to compete because of Bomberman's skill. In the end, Bomberman wins the Bomblympics and retains his championship title of the hero of Planet Bomber.
Multiplayer Game Modes
*Survival Rule
*:This is the original "Bomberman" battle mode. The winner is the last one standing.
*Hyper Bomber Rule
*:A new mode to the "Bomberman" series. To win, collect 3 target panel power-ups, and touch the center place. A huge explosion will then kill everyone but you. For each target panel you get, a skull will come and circle around you, so you can keep track of how many target panels you have. Getting killed loses all of your target panels.
*Submarine Rule
*:This game is almost identical to Battleship, except that it is realtime. You place a bomb down with a timer on it, and once it gets to one, it goes over to the adjacent spot on the other side.
*Panel Paint Rule
*:The object of this mode is to color as many squares as you can your color. You can do this by blowing up a bomb, and every square that the explosion touches, turns into your color. If you die, all the squares your color turn into the neutral brown square.
*Ring Match Rule
*:In ring match mode, you try to kill the opponents to gain points while not dying yourself. As soon as you die, you are regenerated back onto the playing field.External links
