Refreshed & rearmed

I remember playing the original Bionic Commando on NES in the late 80s/early 90s, a sequel to the original arcade game that was released in 1987. It was a great game with some decent challenges and enemies… oh, and you had a grappling hook for an arm. Capcom announced some time ago that they were going to revisit the franchise; refreshing the 2D gameplay and taking it to the next level. Let me get something straight though; this is not a sequel or a prequel, nor is it ‘based on’ the original game. It IS the original game, with a lick of new paint.

The above video shows the first BC game to be released, Bionic Commando Rearmed. But, there’s also another new Bionic Commando game to be released soon. Confused? I know I was when I first heard it. The other new BC game, funnily enough called Bionic Commando, can be best described as a 3D swinging game (a-la Spidey games) with guns and destructable environments.

BC Rearmed was released last week on XBL, and I downloaded it on the weekend and had a decent crack at some of the levels. Capcom have certainly kept up their end of the bargain. The game still feels like the 8-bit classic gameplay but with the new improvements in gameplay and graphics. It has a sense of familarity without feeling stale, at all. This game is must have if you’ve played the original.

If anyone purchases the game for X360, leave me a message to let me know, as I would be interested in some multiplayer action. Multiple swingers FTW.
