GDC08: Bionic Commando Rearmed aims for May

by James Ransom-Wiley { Feb 21st 2008 at 3:00PM }

Capcom is targeting May for a simultaneous release of Bionic Commando Rearmed on XBLA, PSN and PC, according to videogaming247. A company representative allegedly cited the date during a meeting with 247 in an off-site hotel suite. We'll confirm later today when Joystiq collides with Capcom. [Update: Confirmed!]

Me wants.

Be sure you ask them why Mega Man isn't in Brawl when you meet them!

Oh, and also be sure to kick the guy in the nuts and say, "That's for Clover."

And then make sure you spit on him. Y'know – for good measure.

Am I going to allow myself to be suckered into semi-re-buying a game I played almost twenty years ago?

...shit, probably. Sorry credit card, you've got more work to do.

Excellent. Can't wait. Capcom has been an awesome 3rd party this gen. Even if DMC4 is meh.

i'm way more excited about this Bionic Commando than the newer, mountain dew flavored one.

I hope they flesh out the story. Bionic Commando had a fantastic story for the time, and there's a lot of room to expand it in scope.

I kind of doubt that's what they're doing, but oh well. Metal Gear Bionic -- I wish.

The last game I was excited about, purchased, was Mass Effect. I like the idea that it's still a side-scroll screen setup and that the guy is small because it makes the little man more life-like... real-even when he lands on a ledge and kinda has to pick himself up. Love the grenades/missile launcher seems okay-I'll probably stick with main weapon until I reach a big boss. The music rocks! I LOVE THAT IT WILL BE ON XBOX LIVE ARCADE which means that it will won't be a 65 dollar game.... The only thing that I would want more out of it is. After this version, make more addition to the game. Add levels. More different environment climits. REALLY TEST THE CO-OP LEVELS TO WHERE TWO PEOPLE CAN'T JUST FLY THROUGH THE GAMES. They have to set-in, use the missile launcher/make grenades seem valuable. Yeah... that'll be cool.
