I like, others, really enjoyed this game. Think is was way underrated. Good game for great price.

I enjoyed this game more than I thought I would. My only advice is not to bother with trying to find all the collectibles on your first playthrough. I tried to do it at first, but found it too frustrating. Once I gave up on that, I had a lot of fun swinging around.

And yeah, the story gets pretty bizarre at the end.

New sold out online :(

I wanna through out there that Bionic Commando (360/PS3) is $9.99 at Best Buy as well, in-store as well as online.

I just wish it came with the Bionic Commando NES remake download built in...now that would be sweet.

It's a great game for <$10. There's some weird things with it, such as the explanation about why he doesn't take damage when he falls 1000 ft... Cause he wears steel boots or whatever the ****

The swinging is fun though.

Yeah, I loved it. One of the handful of games from last year I'm keeping in my collection.

I *DID* grow up with Bionic Commando, and play through it again every few years, and I loved this, different as it is. I actually like this a lot more than the Rearmed remake, although I think that's okay. For me it goes Bionic Commando (NES) > Bionic Commando (Current gen) > Bionic Commando: Rearmed > Bionic Commando (GBC) > Bionic Commando (Arcade)

For me those were positive :-D I love Nathan and the other larger than life characters. And remember, this is the sequel to a game where you kill a resurrected Hitler

Thanks, I've had a $5 RZ cert for months now (since I hardly go to BB) and I might as well spend it on this.

Thanks for the fyi. I wound up picking it up after watching the review on gametrailers. Looked just like Lost Planet which was just enough for me to buy.

Personally I hated the first Lost Planet, but loved Bionic Commando.

I Wouldn't say hate, but I couldn't get into Lost Planet. I'll try again eventually, though Bionic Commando was ALOT of fun. Hell, I had more fun with this game then InFamous. I Never understood why it got the reviews it got.

The Giant Bomb guys made it sound like fun on their podcast at least

Yeah, maybe hate is too strong a word for Lost Planet. I kind of enjoyed it at first, but got stuck somewhere. Bionic Commando was weird though in that the first few hours I didn't really like it and was pretty critical, and then at some point something "clicked" and I loved it to the point where I kept it. Doesn't happen like that too often for me I don't think.

Don't get me wrong, the allusion to Lost Planet wasn't really a compliment. LP was barely worth $10 to me, that's why I figure BC is worth just that. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised...the gametrailers rating was actually pretty high, 7.5 I believe so I could do a lot worse.

Bionic Commando more then anything once you get the swing mechanic down it just feels right. Like before then you realize a learning curve to getting use to the arm and the rather limited ammo, but once you get the swinging down and get upgrades the game just feel's right. Though I just wish you got all those moves early on is all, but still I had fun with it and it never gets tiresome using enemies as kites to shoot down.

Oh, okay, I was kind of taking it the reverse of that, that you liked Lost Planet and so thought you might like Bionic Commando. Well, don't worry about that then, because they're no more alike than say Lost Planet and Gears of War or something. Just give Bionic Commando a few hours. Actually come to think of it, it seems like a whole lot of us on here like it!

its a good game with great graphics and control. not sure about multiplayer

I have no idea what % it really is, but if I had to guess MAYBE it's 10% or so. I suppose if you suck at the game and die a lot you'll see a lot of loading screens but that's not the fault of anyone but the person playing the game.

I have a free day on Monday, would it be worth my time to pick this game up used from gamestop?

I own a 360 and a PS3 and I just dislike when people skew the facts in the hopes of making one console look bad. If the information was accurate then I would be fine with it being posted, just like how when Bayonetta came out it was a horrible version on the PS3 till a patch came out that didn't fix the problems totally, but alleviated most of 'em.

That being said this is the internet and nothing should be taken seriously, but at the same time it's not easy to tell one someone is being honest, joking, or what-have-you.
