Default Capcom Reveals Next-Gen Bionic Commando

Brendan Sinclair
Oct 16, 2007


Don't try this at home.



Quote:
Commando introduced a novel grappling hook mechanic into a stagnating side-scrolling 2D platformer genre. While the Capcom-developed game was highly regarded (and even named as one of GameSpot's Greatest Games of All Time), the franchise has been dormant outside of a 1992 Game Boy version and a 1999 Game Boy Color pseudo-sequel.

That's about to change, as Capcom has revealed to GameSpot that it is developing a new Bionic Commando game for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. Simply called Bionic Commando, the new game will bring back the original game's hook (pun intended), with players able to use the main character's bionic grappling arm not only to navigate levels but to take out enemies at close range, rappel down sheer surfaces, or toss objects (like cars) at enemies.

Where the original Bionic Commando followed players on a mission to rescue a fellow agent named Super Joe, the new game's storyline appears to carry a more cynical edge. After serving his country honorably in conflict with the Imperials, technologically enhanced agent Nathan Spencer is framed for a number of crimes by his superiors and sentenced for execution. Fate intervenes, as an experimental terrorist weapon is detonated in Ascension City on the day Spencer is to be executed. With the city in ruins and Spencer uniquely equipped to handle the many skyscrapers, monorails, and suspended roadways, the government reluctantly turns to its imprisoned bionic commando for help.

no, its something new and it has to be big. They've been on the edge because nothing has been coming the PS3 and all the fan bois are pissed. I really can't wait to see it, not the fact it's on the PS3, but it could be anything from Resident Evil to Megaman. O.o

Bionic Commando is my favorite NES game. I still play it every now and then. This game would be awesome if it were similar to Prince of Persia or some other exploration/platforming game.

It better have the dual forms of playing too. One being regular platforming and the other being when you had to drop into the zone when you ran into the trucks on the map.

Either way, the character and arm they finally settled on look great.

Wow!

I loved that game on my Commodore Amiga!!

and If anyone is interested, the composer ROMEO KNIGHT of the old group Red Sector Inc. has done an OUTSTANDING remix of my Fave tune in BC!!

http://www.remix64.com/tune_312000.html
http://www.romeoknight.net/

Im certainly looking forward to this!!
I think the TURRICAN series should be redone in 3D too!!
