Demo Days: Bionic Commando: Rearmed Grapples Your Love?


Each week comes a new demo for everyone to try out. This week it's Bionic Commando: Rearmed. This version of Bionic Commando is a remake of the original game that captured people's hearts. In the demo there was the following: A tutorial, single player, and challenge room. The tutorial helps you greatly as the controls of this game are very different from other games which is a flaw. Most people to fire weapons use the right trigger but in this case you press the A button which is usually jump. B button shoots your mechanical arm to get you around since you can't jump in this game. The demo leaves you on a cliffhanger expecting you to buy the game which is a possibility for fans of the series. Moving along to the final mode of BC; the Challenge Rooms. This I have to say is the best part of the game as it offers a variety of challenges and high scores for your friends to compete in. In the end the online co-op is a nice addition too but this demo fell short of my expectations. Look on the bright side it's 800 MS points unlike Braid. Fans will appreciate this upgrade more then the newbies in the end.
