I sucked at this game years ago and you'd have to pay me to play the updated version.

Probably one of the easiest games ever for the nes. It's awesome, and I will own it!

That was one of my favorite NES games. I can't wait for it!

This is exactly how they should have continued the Metroid series. Well done Capcom!

Well.. this one is just a remake.

The actual "continuation," it's called Bionic Commando EXTREME:

If you have the XBLA/PSN version, you can use the NES guy in the EXTREME game instead of the EXTREME Xbox dreadlocks MTV guy.

Things just aren't cool until you put EXTREME in the title.

I remember renting this for my NES way back when... it didn't come with any instructions, and if I went to a level before I was supposed to (it was blocked by some beam or something) I didn't know the magic button combo to switch back to the map and go somewhere else. So I had to start all over.

I absolutely loved this game. I'd honestly pay 1200 points for the remake without blinking.

360 gimped a bit

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3166495

While interviewing Capcom Producer Ben Judd for our Bionic Commando: Rearmed preview today, we learned that not all versions of this hearty downloadable remake of the NES classic are being created equal. When the game hits this spring, the PlayStation Network version (as well as the PC incarnation) will have higher-res textures than the Xbox Live Arcade version. Blame Live Arcade's 150MB limit on file sizes, Judd explained.
I'll wait to see screenshot comparisons, but it probably won't dissuade me too much from buying the 360 version.

Great. So now we have to pick a side between being a "graphics whore" or an "achievement whore".

At least we know that whichever wins, you're still a whore!

I don't need Bionic Commando to tell me that.
