Hey guys,
What are the differences in Panic Bomber between Virtual Boy and PC Engine? Thanks.
Blindness and a headache? Playing with friends?
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
PCE is full color and has some very nice hand drawn pixel art for the map and misc screens. VB is 3D and has fugly DKC-style cgi for the map and misc screens.
PCE has redbook music and a bit of chip tunes. VB only has chip tunes.
PCE has checkered bgs. VB has scrolling background with parallax.
PCE has animated enemy portraits in a window. VB has animated full body shots of enemies. Much of the animation is moving layers.
PCE has colored Bomberman heads and bombs for puzzle pieces. Since VB lacks color, it uses misc character heads instead.
PCE has voices. VB does not.
PCE has a nice cinematic ending cinema for story mode. VB has a bit of an opening cinematic and instant credits with scrolling enemy art for story mode ending.
PCE has different logo effects each time the title screen comes up.
VB has more scaling effects than PCE.
In the PCE version, the play area boarders glow and change color as a player gets closer to death. VB boarders do not animate.
PCE has 5 players on one screen/console mode. I believe that the VB version is single player only.
3D

Clearly the Virtual Boy version is far superior because of this!

VB can NEVER be Superior to PCE. OBEY the PCE!

That's not how your supposed to play it. ;)
Now I wonder how Vertical Force is compared to the Star Soldier games, and what Bomberman on VB was going to be like.
Well since VB has parallax and 3D it has to be the winner... Sorry obey fan boys! :mrgreen:

Why would you need to get laid when you can have your mind BLOWN at any time by playing the VB!

Lol, no matter how I say it you may feel insulted but here I go: No game will EVER replace a good piece of tail, EVER; If you doubt this, then you haven't had a good piece of tail yet. (Sorry) =)

No disrespect but its quite obvious you have never played the VB! ;)
None taken! Ha ha ha!!!!
Tail vs VB and the VB wins???? clearly the tail must have been bad :mrgreen:
I'm partial to the Neo Geo version of Panic Bomber myself.
I've never played the PC Engine version, but for what it's worth, Panic Bomber on Virtual Boy is a good game. Believe it or not, I'm actually a fan of the Virtual Boy in general. :-"

To be honest, I never really gave Panic Bomber a chance (I was too busy playing Puyo Puyo!)... I suppose Panic Bomber might actually have some potential to be interesting, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Heh, I just got a game on PS3 called Retro City Rampage. You can choose different color settings that mimic various consoles & old PC's like the ZX Spectrum(renamed XZ Moonbeam!), & there's one that mimics the Vitrual Boy's colors, & it's called Virtual Burn! :)
I love both versions of Panic bomber!! The Super CD version has amazing audio and a great overworld map and entertaining characters and animations. The VB version is cool too. It retains most of the gameplay that the PCE version has, along with neat scaling and grafx. I also really dig the stereo sound on the VB, which I swear is just a suped up SuperGrafx sound chip!!
Also, to note- I'd say both are far superior to the PSP one I've been playing lately. Lack of storyline mode and some characters has me wanting more. Still, ok... but not as good as the previously mentioned ones. :D
I remember my main issue with the VB Panic Bomber has so many layers at different "distances" that it was distracting and I had trouble paying attention to the actual play area.

Wait, what? There's a PSP version of Panic Bomber? I'm probably misunderstanding something, especially since I'm sick with a cold & just woke up. :P
Ooo, there is a PSP version: clicky (https://youtu.be/fpxW8SB-56s). 8)

That doesn't look or sound nearly as nice as the PCE Powerhouse version.

It totally isn't. It's ok for quick play on the road or in between meals..... I just wish the VB was a portable game console.... then I could play a legit version of Panic Bomber at the airport. ;)
