   I have wanted to pick up Mega Bomberman for ever, but I am not willing   
   to pay $25+ for a complete copy.  This is mainly because Atomic   
   Bomberman on PC is still my favorite version, and I own iterations for   
   the Dreamcast and XBLA.

   Nothing Psygnosis made ever clicked with me.  Puggsy seems to be   
   included in that mix.  I can find nothing technically inferior about   
   Puggsy, I just don't really care about the innovations it offers.

   I want two things from the tech heads, and two things only.  I want to   
   be able to use my light guns on HDTVs, and I want to be able to network   
   my Sega consoles with one device.
