'Bust-A-Move' (NDS/PSP) Titles Coming To Europe - Screens

by Rainier on Feb. 21, 2006 @ 3:16 p.m. PST

Bust-A-Move Ghost introduces the spooktacular new Ghost mode that includes a tricky new Ghost bubble and a Heart meter to pay attention to for an enhanced experience. Bust-A-Move DS revolutionizes the classic Bust-A-Move gameplay by allowing players to use the bottom screen to "fling" bubbles into the play area using Bub and Bob's funky new catapult, rather than the classic cannon.

Outside of Ghost mode, the classic addictive bubble popping fun is taken to the extreme with over 1000 addictive new puzzles to beat and four new games including Running Launcher, Mix 'Em Up Double Shot and Time Warp, all of which are exclusive to PSP. Wireless multiplayer (ad-hoc mode) is supported and there are six new Bust-A-Move characters introduced to the mix, including two unlockable puzzle maniacs.

Bust-A-Move Ghost, developed by Dreams Interactive, releases on 24th March priced £29.99.

Touch the screen with the stylus or even your finger to select the angle and trajectory of your shot, then fire away as fast as your fingers can work. The new slingshot system means there's no more waiting for the cannon to rotate into position, resulting in faster and much more frantic play. But don't worry if you're a Bust-A-Move purist – you can choose to play using the classic control pad set up if you like your Bust-A-Move a bit more traditional.

Other new features include a "quick swap" function, where a bubble is always held in reserve in addition to the bubble in play, allowing you to switch in a second at any point. This allows for increased strategy and therefore more exciting ways to bust the bubbles in the play area. Multiplayer matches pitch you against up to four other players wirelessly, using just one copy of the game. The popular Classic mode returns, along with all-new puzzle missions to keep you on your toes and there are eight insane new characters to meet.

Bust-A-Move DS, developed by Taito/Happy Happening, releases on 24th February, priced £29.99.
