Let the Fireworks Fly with a Bomberman Live Tournament

Are you awesome at Bomberman and are eager to show off your demolitions expertise? Well, in order to celebrate the new year Hudson is holding a Bomberman Live New Year’s Bash tournament, with first place prize being 100,000 Microsoft Points (tournament only in the U.S.). Part marketing gimmick, the tournament requires all entrants to have the new game mode included in the “Bomb-Up Pack 3″ downloadable content. They will then have to do their best to get top ranks in the Weekly Ranked Friendly Fire Leaderboard, where “Friendly Fire” is the game mode required for download.
Registration began today, December 31st, at 9a.m. PST and will end on January 13th, 2008 at 8:59a.m. PST. The tournament itself begins 5a.m. PST on January 6th and ends 8:59a.m. PST on January 13th. You can register on the tournament’s official website.
Complete list of prizes include:
1st Place: 100,000 Microsoft Points
2nd Place: An Xbox 360™ Elite Console
3rd Place: An Xbox 360™ VIP Accessories Kit and Two limited-edition pink Xbox 360 controllers
4th Place - 8th Place: 1,600 Microsoft Points each
I don’t know about you, but I’d much rather win 2nd place.
