Well, new to him at any rate. Capcom has released two gameplay trailers for Tokyo Game Show which have a focus on moves that Spencer can perform with his bionic arm in the upcoming Bionic Commando ReArmed 2. A couple of them, such as a circular whip motion and ground pound, will probably be familiar to those who played the 3D Bionic Commando from last year.
A really useful move is shown quite a bit in the second video below. Spencer can apparently just plow barrels out of the way with his robo-fist instead of having to pick them up and throw them if they're in his path. It's really cool. The only thing I'll warn you about is that this second trailer has one of the most painful re-interpretations of the Bionic Commando theme I've ever heard. Headache-inducing, even.

I played it... and liked it too. The storyline is ridiculous and not in a good way... but I liked the gameplay itself. Awesome music and if you can get Spencer's original costume everything is somehow better off because of it. It may take some time to get used to the controls but if played right... and if you can make it all "click" in your head then you can pull off some amazing things. Some people seem to hate it while others love it... but overall I feel it deserves a much better reputation then it has. Was definitely worth the 10 bucks I payed for it anyway.
I'm one of the few who, through its faults, had a lot of fun with the 3D Bionic Commando from last year. I'm honestly just a Bionic Commando fiend, so I'll be highly anticipating this release.
Man, I still love the sound of that classic Capcom logo! I miss Konami's old logo sound from the SNES days. When I heard that sound I knew I was about to play a quality title. =`(
it's in quotes. as in nathan "radd" spencer.
Seriously for the 10 bucks it costs now everyone should try it out.
No kidding. I like the soundtrack for the first game, but that is awful.
