Classic side-scrolling gameplay is reporting back for duty with Bionic Commando Rearmed, a remake of the classic NES game, out now on PC. 20 years after the 8-bit classic was released, Bionic Commando Rearmed recreates the world of the original with a complete "2.5D" visual revamp.
Bionic Commando Rearmed borrows its plot largely from the Nintendo Entertainment System version of the game. In keeping with the North American release of that version, the references to the Nazi party found in the original Japanese title are not featured in Rearmed. However, as is the case in the original, the final boss of the game still clearly resembles Adolf Hitler, and is referred to as "The Leader". Rearmed centers around two warring factions: the Federation and the Empire. It begins with the Imperial forces discovering classified documents regarding the development of a secret weapon known as the Albatros project, originally started by an organization known as the Badds, but never completed. Killt, Generalissimo of the Empire's forces, decides to complete the project himself. When the Federation learns of the Empire's plot, they send in their national hero, Super Joe to infiltrate the Empire. During his mission, Joe is captured by Imperial forces. The Federation sends in a second operative named Nathan Spencer to rescue Super Joe and assist him in completing his mission. Spencer traverses several areas, eliminating many Imperial leaders along his way. As he progresses, he finds new technology and travels deeper behind enemy lines. The plot culminates as Super Joe is rescued from the bionic Imperial soldier Gottfried Groeder, and both Spencer and Joe set out to destroy the Albatros project. During the mission, Spencer encounters "The Leader", the resurrected head of the Imperial forces. Spencer defeats The Leader, and together with Super Joe destroys the Albatros. The game ends with both heroes hanging onto a helicopter, flying off as the Albatros explodes.

As a remake of the classic NES title "Bionic Commando", this game got the full HD treatment - widescreen support, a kick@ss soundtrack by Payday composer Simon Viklund, a complete graphical overhaul with 3D characters, co-op mode, and more. The negative reviews for this seem to be about the control scheme - which stays true to its classic NES roots. There is NO jumping in this game - every vertical move you make is using your bionic arm. Hence the title, BIONIC COMMANDO. Figuring out what paths to take to get where you want to go is part of the fun. If you can't (or refuse to) figure it out for yourself, you shouldn't be playing this game.
Great game, but currently does not work with Windows 10 and should not be sold on Steam.
I grew up playing the Nintendo version of Bionic Commando (there was an arcade version too) and loved the game enough to still play it to completion every year. It was the first game that had a swear and a gruesome scene of someone's head blowing up. For those that haven't played or heard of Bionic Commando, its a 2D gunning platformer with a world map and different, unique and vibrant levels with a wide variety of enemies. If you think you've done every 2D platformer before, have you tried a platformer with no jump button? This game really hangs its hat on the fact that you use a bionic arm for platform traversal. The arm is pretty versatile, the normal arm button launches it diagonally, when you use a direction and the arm it will blast out forward, and ducking while using the arm will send it forward, but lower. You can use the arm upward too. With the arm you can swing and climb. You
You know what would have been great? To have the developers put on the store page in big obvious letters that this does not work with windows 10, even with the legacy drivers. They knowingly allow people to download their product knowing full fell that it will not work with windows 10. And then to go through the trouble to downloading the old legacy drivers, putting their new pc to extra worry and trouble because it might not be compatible and it might screw up their computer in the future for no reason. Putting people to all that trouble for no reason. Just more kids pretending to be business men. Thanks for yet another life lesson I didn't want. Thanks for encouraging yet another lie to the general public. As though we aren't infected enough with that type of thing already.
Great remastering of an old classic. Very fun and unique to have a platformer where you can not jump at all. Many people complain about the difficulty or "clunky" controls. The game is supposed to have very restrictive movement. It isn't a simulation of what it would be like to be a bionic commando -- it is a game first and foremost. Overcoming the strict control and movement mechanisms is the challenge, but can be very rewarding. Watch a YouTube speed run player and you'll see how fluid it can become once you master it. Be warned though: you NEED to have a controller. The game is *literally* unbeatable on Hard+. It is impossible to beat the end boss without a controller due to being unable to remap the keyboard to split rocket launcher control from character movement. Outside of the end boss the game is extremely fun.
