Bionic Commando Rearmed
Game » consists of 9 releases. Released Aug 13, 2008
Bionic Commando Rearmed is a remake of the classic NES game, Bionic Commando. Although it was designed mainly as a marketing tie-in to the 360 and PS3 game also called Bionic Commando, it was actually far, far better received by critics than the real console game.
Bionic Commando Rearmed PS3 Gets Trophies, Fixes
Damn, finally! Didn't they announce trophies for this like in September? What the hell? That's good news though, since I never finished the game; was waiting for this update forever so I can start anew.
Honestly though, good news and good to hear; I'll definitely be playing when it goes live.
Hmmm, PS Blog site is down. Have you established a term for "GiantBoming" a linked website? Nuked? Geebee'd? Blown?
Well, I just hope this turn of events won't topple my high score. ._.;
Anyway, this is nice to see. Maybe a patch for the retail game is coming soon too?
Hell yeah, finally! Maybe later they'll lower the Bionic Commando price and I can play it with my awesome RAD skin
Hahaha, I did the same as you VWGTi xD
Glad they are adding both trophies and a couple of fixes, though I like the current diff (though its mostly due to the platforming and not the actual enemies)
Any idea on sales for Rearmed compared to BC (after a similar time on the market)?
In a way, I'm glad BC isn't selling. I hope other developers take note of the two different approaches to reviving really old franchises and the comparative success of each. What we want is just a fresh coat of paint and the conveniences of modern gaming (saves, online multiplayer etc.); we (evidently) don't want our childhood favourites forced into a modern gameplay style they weren't meant for.
There are a ton of classic games I would love to see given the Rearmed treatment. Syndicate and Lemmings always spring to mind for some reason.
" Ahhh. trophies and Home, Sony's big, "We fucked up but we won't admit it" ideas. "
As for Home, all I'll say is that it's pretty busy when I go on it.
Whatever, on topic, I'm really pleased Rearmed is getting trophies. Any excuse to play that game rules.
This news made MAH BALLZ PUCKER!1
There were some pretty harsh words thrown at Ben in the blog when he announced that the game would NOT get trophies, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is a result of that. Then again, like you said, Jeff, it was probably just a smokescreen to make it seem like Capcom actually does care about its fans. Either way, it's not a bad move on their part, and I'm glad I picked BC: R up when it was on sale for $4.99 so that I can take part in this great update.
