Another key fires the weapons you unlock as the game goes on, most of which will only fire horizontally. Tapping the grappling hook key reels the hook in, either pulling you up or pulling an object towards you.

It's this tool that you use to traverse the game's levels, a chain that shoots out at 45° angles, latches on to any ceiling it can find and allows you to swing from it. That's why Capcom have brushed it up and sent it out - to raise awareness of bionically-armed commandos in the run up to their sequel (simply titled Bionic Commando, and still mostly under wraps).Ī side-scrolling platformer lacking in a jump button, Bionic Commando Rearmed forces you to rethink the genre basics by giving you a grappling hook for an arm. I can't be alone - although it's touted as a classic, proponents of the original are now lawyers, surgeons and architects who've got more important things to think about. Nostalgia over the original is blasted away by a condensed stream of my own ignorance.

I don't, because I hadn't played the original Bionic Commando until I was assigned to this review. Remember when we could have games about war that didn't parade about the place trying to out-reality everyone around them? Those wintr'y eves when we could sit around our Nintendos and, with all the sobriety of a man about to watch a serious documentary about Gulf War ethics, fire up a game about a commando with a bionic arm who swings off things and kicks people in the face with his iron boots?
