Starting today and continuing on until May 21, the PlayStation Network version of Bionic Commando: Rearmed is going to cost only $4.99. At that price, you'd have to be borderline crazy not to get it. In case you hadn't heard, the game is good. Really, really good.
What's the catch? The discount is being used as a promotion of sorts for the console-bound Bionic Commando, which is dropping on May 22. I guess I've been out of it lately, because I had no idea it was being released so soon.
As for why Rearmed on Xbox LIVE Arcade isn't on sale, I haven't got an answer for you. Perhaps Amazon will one day make up for it?

If this deal is true to England, i'm having it the second I see it.
I bought it for 5€ from the Austrian PSN-store today, so I think the answer to your question is: 'Yes!'(I think it's 4 GBP in England.)

More like deal of the WEAK m i rite.
No trophies, my inner trophy collector just said no to this offer then.
I had the same problem with mm9, nothing but nostagia kept me from forgetting it.
Oh, by the way, Penny Arcade episode 1 is less than a fiver for those who want to pick it up!
If you don't already own this, what's your excuse?!
The game is amazing.
Also, just like Emrah said, RagDoll Kung Fu is free right now!
On a side note, my jaw hit the floor when I saw that scene. It was just so hilariously over the top.
Ah, nostalgia.
