I was randomly browsing thru Destructoid today and since they had a link to Hudson's website in their article/news story/whatever about Mr. Destructoid being as DLC on both Bomberman LIVE and Ultra, I decided to visit it. And my god... while the whole website isn't completely full of WTF-worthy stuff, there's something called "One King To Drool Them All" in the Bonk section (dubbed the Bonk Super Site) in which they were supposedly finding a new King Drool for Bonk's Return with the (supposed) help of... Peter Jackson. Yes, the same Peter Jackson that did all three Lord of the Rings, King Kong and, more recently, helped with District 9. It demands to be seen: http://hudsonent.com/user/feature.php?f=One_King_to_Drool_Them_All&feature_id=%99%9F%A7%A8%9B%A7
Also, from that same article, behold, the brand new Bonk (with a head size reduction):

And now for something completely worse: The 5 Reasons Why Bomberman Act: Zero Rocks! (exclamation mark included). They even include an apparent reason of why the Bombermen have that dark, gritty look in this game: it's a throwback to the cover for the first Bomberman on the NES!

Even worse, at the end of it, there's a line that says: "But if you're still a hater, then go play your Bomberman PSP. Bah, and play with your Hello Kitty toys too". Excuse me? Bomberman on the PSP is much better than Act Zero (even though I haven't played it. Act Zero, that is), and you think that not liking Act Zero makes us look like a bunch of sissies that like girly stuff, like Hello Kitty? Hell no! Here it is, for your viewing "pleasure":

Peter Jackson didn't do District 9. He did as much for that movie as Steven Spielberg did for Jurassic Park 3, or, say, Sega did for Bayonetta. Lol.

Haha, that's crazy. Also "Lesbians!"? WTF? I mean, this is the official Hudson site, right?

Yeah, I think it's one of those cases where the western box art actually looks better. (well comparing Famicom and NES at least, not sure about the MSX and various other home computer versions)

:huh: I was expecting something a little more like the Turbo Graphix games!

As for Act Zero, wasn't that game from like 2006 and was a huge flop? It's like Hudson thought that making one of their more popular franchises look like Halo automatically makes it sell. :rofl:
