Yesterday we told you about a 3D remake of the original NES game Bionic Commando, and now IGN has details and footage on this PSN and XBLA title, named Bionic Commando Rearmed.

The downloadable Bionic Commando Rearmed revisits the classic, and as you can see, everything has been revamped in gorgeous 3D. IGN spoke with Ben Judd, producer at Capcom Japan, and found that the story of the original NES title has been fleshed out for Rearmed. New information helps tie this game to the upcoming next-gen title. 

It seems that we can expect some bionic upgrades as well.

"We felt the original could be improved without straying from the basic concept, says Judd.

"We have expanded upon this array of moves and given the player the ability to lift up non-fixed objects – such as enemies and barrels – and throw them, as well as connect and pull on handles in the surroundings to trigger door mechanics or unscrew bolts that keep obstacles in place."

Holy Hitler! Doesn't this new footage look amazing? Be honest with me: aren't you more excited about this than the new next-gen title?

Come on people let's send a message.
Everybody buy Rearmed and completely ignore the hotdog. You know it makes sense.

I'm more excited about this than any other XBLA title I've been excited for. Rez HD, Ikaruga, even Castle Crashers.

Combined.

OK, I can't keep quiet anymore.

Anyone, please name one port from NES/TB16/whatever to XBLA that they've done right. Double Dragon? Prince of Persia? Fatal Fury? Final Fight 2? Contra? Anyone???

I think that if Sega actually did this with Sonic 2, we would see a good Sonic game on a current-gen console for the first time in a long time.

@Snaileb: Prince of Persia was actually pretty good. I actually liked it, It was pretty faithful to the original, like it was intended, I don't see the complaint there.

The others, however, weren't made by Capcom for optimum win.
