Nexon’s Nintendo?
Nexon has released a new game called PopTag. It has been in development for about a year now and it seems like Nintendo has something to say… (Well, not really, but this game does seem like Bomberman.)
You know the very similar retro game back in the late 1990’s? Clueless? Well, don’t worry I’ll fill you in. Bomerman is a game that allows the user/player to play as a character in a map. The character on the screen has an objective: to kill the opponent. No matter how hard/tactical/ugly the monster is, the person must fight it. The character has bombs which are used to destroy the enemy.
In PopTag, it seems like the same exact thing. Except we aren’t using bombs, but something much safer: water balloons. The objective of the game is to try to get as many points as possible and to defeat the boss before you feel like a fool standing there with monsters “draining” your life. You are allowed to work in teams.
So let me ask you, (Yes, I mean you…the person staring at the screen) do these look familiar? Compare them and see for yourself.

Moving along to commentary~
Uh…..this game’s been out for years in Korea (As in the democratic one, not the northern one)
You could edit the article to show that its not all about blowing your enemies/friends; you can also ride things like a tank (tanks are neccessary in maps where you and your opponent are separated, thus making the tank’s gravity bomb-like weapon a WMD)
Nice article though; this week’s been a helluva lot of updates.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
I love you all,
Just like a doll.
