The most addictive puzzle game since Tetris hits the Nintendo 64 in fine style�Bust-A-Move 2: Arcade Edition perfectly replicates the arcade brain buster. Although it leaves out some of the more advanced options of earlier home versions (like the level builder), this edition keeps the title�s superb gameplay intact.

In BAM2, you must drop approaching bubbles on your opponent by linking together three of the same color. The characters are goofy anime-style monsters whose voices aren�t even translated from Japanese, while the catchy soundtrack is a benign jingle that will soothe your overworked brain. The game�s true attractions, though, are its simplistic design, machete-sharp control, and intense challenge.
