Bionic Commando Rearmed
Damn Xbox Live Arcade! I'm trying really hard to not buy myself an Xbox 360. I have enough games to play with my huge library of unfinished Playstation2, Gamecube, and Wii games...but there are just so many exciting new games coming out for the Xbox360. And I'm not even talking about their regular game library.While everyone anticpates when the latest Grand Theft Auto comes out...I'm drooling over all the downloadable titles on the Xbox360. Yeah, Halo3 and Bioshock look pretty cool...but I'm an old school gamer bred on Capcom, Konami, and Nintendo...so its way more exciting to find out they're releasing an HD version of Street Fighter 2 than to find out what's going on with the Unreal or Valve programming teams.I've been casually following the news about the new Bionic Commando 3D game but it's not my thing. Bionic Commando will always be regarded as a classic...but seeing some white guy with dreadlocks swinging around with that metal/hip-hop/Disney-Tarzan look doesn't feel very true to the 8-bit original.Today, though, IGN debuted a preview of the XBLA Bionic Commando remake...which is something I could DEFINITELY get into.
