It's a bird! It's a plane! Wait, it's ... Bionic Fireman photo

No, really. I couldn't make this kind of stuff up if I tried. Hit the jump to watch a clever little viral video from the fine folks at Capcom, who thought it might be worth a laugh to see Nathan Spencer try his hand at a new profession -- rescuing kittens from trees. The guy in the Bionic Commando getup actually reminds me of the Powerthirst video there at the end, which is great because it made me go watch it again.

I've heard this is only one of many viral vids that the Bionic Commando folks are planning, with rumors pointing to Bionic office manager, paperboy and -- get this -- proctologist. Wow. Let's hope they save that one for last, because I have a feeling it could be the best out of the bunch. The hijinks that could ensue....

I'll admit it that made me laugh the kitty was killed followed by the disclaimer. Oh god I'm a terrible person for laughing at felinicide.

I seriously saw that picture in your post and thought "Oh for fuck's sake. This is the most retarded spinoff ever."

This is the best spinoff ever.

Now this is fun marketing. Keep it up Capcom. Just dont let the people who decide your DLC content make the marketing decisions.

Capcom took a gag that I have seen occur numerous times in old cartoons, and they managed to make it funny again. Curses.

This makes me curious on how the next ads will play out.

That was good because it was so short. Too many "viral" vids take forever to get to the joke... the singer was great

Nice.

It would be awesome if there were a Bionic Fireman minigame in Bionic Commando.
