Bionic Commando Rearmed
« on: August 14, 2008, 10:10:55 PM »
I like it.  =P~ This is by far the best Xbox 360 Live Arcade/PSN release I have seen. Holds true to the original but with some nice additions to give it more up to date game play. The music gives the game the atmosphere it needs. The dialogue in the game is funny as well. I am a little stuck on what seems to be the level before the last level. I am sure I can get through it, but it is challenging.

I recommend this to anyone that is a fan of the series. I wonder if the 3D one coming out soon will be any good in its own way.

Damn, I really need to get me a 360. I seriously I had no idea there was a BC remake available, and I'm huge fan of the original. I checked out a trailer on youtube looks great, I especially like the idea of grappling objects and your enemies. The 2p action is a plus, already feels like a Contra game.

Might be sweet on the Wii if you had to use some kind of controller motion to fire off the grappling hook!

I may get the PS3 version due to the superior (though still inadequate) d-pad.

Yeah, the dpad on the xbox controller is lackluster at best. Though, I guess it's fortunate that its analogue stick and placement is the superior.

Bionic Commando on the GBA is nice.

The 360 D-pad is actually horrendous. I bought a $60 Hori DOA4 stick just to play fighters and all X-box Live Arcade 2D style games. One major problem is with games like UMK3 you can't change the button layout at all. So with the Hori stick, I am screwed.

Also, my 360 and my roommate's as well just RROD 3 lights a week ago on the same exact hour.  :dance: His was a refurbished unit bought in April and had disk loading issues before it did it. Mine which I had for 2 years just had the occasional lockup on cut scenes with NG2 and one scene on Ace Combat 6 right before it died. Then one day, it just lights up. BTW, I keep my room just about always at 68 degrees and my system in open space. This is just ridiculous. So I am sending it off and requesting they give me the 65nm Falcon or Xenon chip set, whichever it is. I honestly think the 30% failure rate is actually higher. It is more like 100% due to time being the issue of just a matter of when your first model 360 dies, not if.

Wait, are you talking about your 360 or PC? :-s

My only access would be the PC version.

I was pissed when I heard it wasn't coming to Steam. Audiosurf is the only thing worth playing on Steam thus far.

The PC version is retarded in terms of optimization.


Plays like poo.

Have to get the PS3 one when I get unlazy, and go over to the PS3 and get it off the store....

For GBA not DS? How are the graphics? I may have to check that one out...
