Hudson Ups the Arsenal for Bomberman LIVE with Bomb-Up Pack 3


REDWOOD SHORES, CA - December 19, 2007 - Hudson Entertainment, the
North American publishing arm for Hudson Soft, today announced that
they are releasing Bomb-Up Pack 3, the third add-on pack for their
"IGN Editor's Choice Award"-winning Bomberman LIVE game for Xbox LIVE
Arcade for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from
Microsoft. This new add-on pack will add more than a dozen new
features, including ten new characters, two additional levels, two new
leaderboards, and a brand new game mode. Bomb-Up Pack 3 is expected
to launch on December 26 and will cost 250 Microsoft Points.

With these latest additions, players will be able to further enjoy the
non-stop, explosive action of Bomberman LIVE in new arenas, including
"Cavity Land," a delicious candy land, and the fully-automated
assembly lines of "Robot Factory."

"We've enjoyed great success with Bomberman LIVE and all of its
additional downloadable content," said John Greiner, President and CEO
of Hudson Entertainment. "We strive to give gamers what they want,
including tournaments, and providing content via Xbox LIVE is a great
way to do so."

This Bomberman LIVE add-on pack will add the following features:

. Ten New Characters - With new characters like "Shinobi Bomb" the
ninja and "Bomb2-D2" the robot, players can customize their in-game
Bomberman in even more new ways.

. Two Additional Levels - New arenas include "Cavity Land," a sugary
sweet candy land, and the industrial "Robot Factory." Both levels
allow users to select any gimmick to use.

. One New Game Mode - In "Friendly Fire," there's no place to hide as
you race to get the most frags. Players start with the "power bomb"
power-up and hard blocks are replaced by holes, leaving nothing to
stop explosions, except Bombermen!

. Two New Leaderboards - Gaze down upon the Bomberman masses from atop
two new ranking systems on the Xbox LIVE network. The new leaderboards
will track performance on both a weekly and an all-time basis for the
new "Friendly Fire" game mode.
