Guitarist Psycho Crusher, whose amazing rock arrangements I've shared numerous times in the past, originally composed this latest jam with the intent to play it live as a full band. Instead, he decided to turn it into a chiptune medley com...

[Update] Contest closed! Winner is Genki-JAM for his awesome entry. Hotdog arms! Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 was released last month for Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network and we thought the game was pretty good. Developer Fat Shark's g...

When it was unveiled that the ability to jump would be in Bionic Commando Rearmed 2, some of you freaked out. Just a tad. Well, maybe considerably more than that. But now many of us have tried jumping, and there's been a more positive reac...

In 2008, Capcom rebooted the Bionic Commando franchise with two remarkably disparate approaches. On one end of the spectrum was the third-person action retail title, Bionic Commando, which found ex-Faith No More singer Mike Patton growling ...

Similar to the PlayStation Network release of Final Fight: Double Impact, so too does Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 on PSN have DRM which requires an Internet connection upon booting up the game. The difference is that this time, Capcom issued ...

Capcom has announced that Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 will be jumping to PlayStation Network on February 1, and Xbox Live Arcade on February 2. Why "jumping" and not "swinging"? Because swinging is old hat for Nathan Spencer, who is now sport...

The fine folks over at GameTrailers have a great video preview of Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 up and it lays out almost everything you wanted to know about the game. From jumping, to upgrades to new level styles it shows most of it off. If y...

Perhaps more than any other tradition in gaming, I would be most upset over the industry deciding to shy away from boss fights. (Actual boss fights, not "shoot it until it dies.") That'll probably never happen during our lifetime, thankful...

Jumping in videogames is destined to be an eternal struggle. Whether it's TimeSplitters or Bionic Commando, someone, somewhere, is going to get pissed off. I can't recall if there was a specific outcry for Rearmed 2, which happens to featur...

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 cir...

While talking with my good friend and E. Honda impersonator Gerald Hom of Capcom-Unity fame, the good man let some inside info slip. Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 would feature "the Klog." He then encouraged me to "check out the Klog!" I heade...

That picture -- taken from the debut trailer for Mega Man Universe -- still gives me nightmares. Anyway, here's what Capcom has in store for us at its PAX booth (#652): Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Dead Rising 2 Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes Ghost...

Nathan Spencer looks to be giving Haggar a run for his money in the awesome moustache department. Check out that closeup of the 'stache he's sporting in Bionic Commando: ReArmed 2. Though not as majestic as the facial hair which rests ...

Yeah, so I choked pretty bad in this video. The NES Bionic Commando difficulty seems to be back for this sequel; one life, and I was dead after (I think) one hit, though it might have been two. I did get some more time with the game after ...

Conan O'Brien may have cornered the market on fabulous, red-colored facial hair -- and I am immensely jealous of him for having done so -- but Bionic Commando Rearmed 2's Spencer, as shown in some killer concept art below, has a rocking 'st...

You know, just moments ago I wrote a post about Capcom and a SSFIV-branded HDTV. It was a journey of incredulity, disbelief, and finally acceptance. Like a couple hadokens followed by a hearty serving of pound cake, I am ready to let the Ca...

Capcom's next-gen Bionic Commando console game might have been a "miss" both critically and at retail, but most were in agreement that its digital download counterpart, Bionic Commando Rearmed, was an astounding success. So gamers should b...

The bunch responsible for graciously giving the world Bionic Commando: Rearmed has founded a studio of its very own: Might&Delight. Is that an amazing name for a company or what? As the tags for this post probably gave away, I'm more th...

"The Memory Card" is a seasonal feature that dissects and honors some of the most artistic, innovative, and memorable videogame moments of all time. I have witnessed a multitude of videogame moments over the years that I could eas...

GRIN’s situation was as dire as recent reports indicated. Following several office closures and heavy layoffs, GRIN announced that the studio is no more. In a somber message on its official Web site, founders Ulf and Bo Andersson cite...

Bionic Commando -- the new one, not Rearmed or the NES classic -- is now available for PC at retail stores and Steam for $39.99. Actually, scratch that. If you pre-purchase from Steam, you can save a few bucks; also, there's supposed to be ...

Yesterday it appears that a patch was released for Bionic Commando: Rearmed over PSN. The update is a bit of a mixed bag, unless you're a total wuss and can't beat the game as it is. See it does allow for Trophy support, which is good. Howe...

"It's worth checking out to play with the swing mechanics and to see the game's impressive visuals," Conrad wrote in the Destructoid review of Bionic Commando, "but I wouldn't recommend wasting more than a few hours on it and...

[Destructoid's Japanese correspondent, 50ft. Samurai, takes a look at last week's "Gaijin" game sales in Japan.]As reported here on Destructoid a couple weeks back, Bionic Commando managed to wrangle a surprising 34/40 from the ed...

[Destructoid's Japanese correspondent, 50ft. Samurai, reports in on how Capcom's Bionic Commando is faring in Japan.] Bionic Commando, as you have heard, did not exactly set the world on fire. Despite a lengthy development process and a goo...
