Bionic Commando Remake Features Insane 4-Player Multiplayer watch!

1up.com — With its May release fast approaching, Bionic Commando: Rearmed is looking more and more appetizing by the week. Capcom just revealed a local four-player versus mode for the downloadable remake, and we have the first trailer, along with five direct-feed videos of the multiplayer in action.

    (Shame that it isn't online versus though)
    • Chris263, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1maybe they could patch it? not sure would be great online with multiplayer and online co-op
    • Karna101, on 04/25/2008, -0/+2pi pi pi...
  • Lumbeekid06, on 04/25/2008, -1/+15this was my favorite game growing up as a kid, hopefully It will be as sick as I think its gonna be.
  • tabaq, on 04/25/2008, -2/+2it is time to enlarge my game collection :)
    • aspec, on 04/25/2008, -1/+9I think I got a spam email about that.
      • krets, on 04/25/2008, -2/+3!!!WOEMN SWOON OVRE UR HUEG JOYSTICK!!!!
  • Chris263, on 04/25/2008, -5/+1will deffo be getting this, looks so good for what i'm expecting to be £5
  • relaxiknwarchie, on 04/25/2008, -1/+11I'm hoping this will be something that developers will see that there is an interest in some of us old time gamers.I would love to see a fresh look to some of the old games... how about the Original Contra, Cobra Triangle, Gauntlet, Any of the old school side scrollers, Golden Axe, Double Dragon.

    These are the games I would love to revisit!
    • BruisedGhost, on 04/25/2008, -1/+3yes yes yes!!! God a next gen remake of Contra amazing pending the old 30 lives code STILL works
    • nakani, on 04/25/2008, -0/+5You're in luck, they're remaking Golden Axe
  • SirBrittanicus, on 04/25/2008, -2/+6This looks totally kickass.

    Multiplayer reminds me of Smash Bros. :p
  • blubill, on 04/25/2008, -3/+4Have you all seen the trailer where he is swinging in first person view? Check this out!

    • nirav72, on 04/25/2008, -0/+3Wow..that is nice. They should do a remake of the old game pitfall using this type of first person view. Especially the swinging from rope to rope.
    • SketchaMPM, on 04/25/2008, -0/+10That's cool, but that's a completely different game. The game in this article is Bionic Commando: Rearmed, which is an update to the NES/Arcade classic. The game you posted a link to is a completely new project, a sequel, for PS3 and X-Box 360.
      • blubill, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1Oh cool, thanks for clearing that up for me man!
  • SketchaMPM, on 04/25/2008, -2/+3Bionic Commando was a Capcom classic, I loved that game. I wonder if this new one will feature an exploding Hilter head?
  • terryzom, on 04/25/2008, -0/+7Dugg for BC... What's more fun than wielding awesome guns, a bionic arm, and stopping Nazi world domination plots?
  • flowaus, on 04/25/2008, -3/+3"updated NES hit."

    What? It ___made_____ the Commodore 64.
    • Ashkc88, on 04/25/2008, -2/+4The C64 version is a different version of the game. It's more like the arcade version, where this one is more like the NES version. The Arcade version wasn't as big of a hit as the NES version was.
  • mrDanielC, on 04/25/2008, -0/+2it is indeed a fun game to play, you will all enjoy it :D
  • ScionX, on 04/25/2008, -2/+3But it was made popular by the NES version
  • smergs, on 04/25/2008, -1/+2I will buy this game the day it comes out. I never did finish it on the NES.
  • baronizer, on 04/25/2008, -4/+2It's like a prettier version of Abuse except there is no online play, and only small, stupid maps.

    The game may be a classic, but this multiplayer is far from impressive considering better was done long, long ago in the same genre...
    • Thing2, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1He's actually right - the single player does look cool, but this video is rather underwhelming - like they're tacking on multiplayer to bolster their feature list.
  • Pr0v0st, on 04/25/2008, -2/+9Looks kinds like Soldat.
    • Pr0v0st, on 04/25/2008, -0/+4kinda*
    • kmusser, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1I was thinkin the exact same thing
    • EvilFerret, on 04/27/2008, -0/+1Except fewer players and slower paced. Still, the BC remake looks pretty decent for a XBLA game.
  • adammharvey, on 04/25/2008, -7/+2I love the original so much, I really wish they didnt come out with this one.
  • phaseblue, on 04/25/2008, -0/+4Hey, check it out... you can jump this time! (Not to knock the old one, of course)
    • mbthompson, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1I'm not sure how a feel about that. I'll get back to you on it.
  • lostarchitect, on 04/25/2008, -4/+2wow, that looks boring.
  • Takuro, on 04/25/2008, -4/+2I think that only those who played the original Bionic Commando are really going to have much of an appreciation for this. I don't know many people willing to dish out $10 to play what otherwise looks like a generic 2D game on their X Box.
    • 1timeuser, on 04/25/2008, -1/+3People with good taste in video games?
  • zelah, on 04/25/2008, -2/+1haha exploding barrels
  • SilentRamble42, on 04/25/2008, -2/+1Wow, that doesn't look at hard to keep track of which guy you are.

    /sarcasm
    • SilentRamble42, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1*at all

      Sorry, got trampled by some cows this morning. One must've hit my head.
  • Cyberdactyl, on 04/25/2008, -2/+3An old side scroller can be great fun, but if you want a classic and awesome, but somewhat dated REAL 3D to play online. . .FOR FREE download the game of the year 1998 Battlezone.

  • flytronix, on 04/25/2008, -2/+1OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • highlyhigh, on 04/25/2008, -2/+0i want it tonite. yes tonite..
  • Karna101, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1pi pi pi...
  • mbthompson, on 04/25/2008, -0/+2Very cool, but why the hell did I have to confirm my age for every freaking video?!
  • panfist, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1Has anyone ever played the game liero? This looks exactly like liero except with slightly better graphics and gimped gameplay.
  • daniz, on 04/25/2008, -0/+0looks like fun, loved the nes game, will probably love this to :) but it will never beat

  • Hero0fTime, on 04/26/2008, -0/+1The original was hard as balls. But so good.
  • ehal256, on 04/26/2008, -0/+0So, it's like liero, but with less weapons, less worms and no destructibility?
  • CCflipside, on 04/27/2008, -0/+0Looks alright, but I wouldn't exactly call it insane. I'd rather play something like SSBB for some 4 player goodness.
  • element3260, on 04/27/2008, -0/+0Has anyone else noticed that this is exactly like teeworlds?
