after the shitty mp demo and reading how restrictive the environments are i've decided it's only worth a rentI don't understand why this is a problem. It only seems problematic if you went into this wanting a sandbox game (something I'm growing tired of). The barriers were designed to create a game with the limitations of the 2D Bionic Commando in 3D. You still seem to have a very open area to play in with some serious verticality, but there ARE bottomless pits and edges which can kill you just like the 2D original (or Rearmed). It's a linear action game, as it should be. Do you REALLY want a giant city with the same fucking radar that points you to each mission objective? Go talk to someone, then go to point X on the radar and complete objective. Rinse and repeat one hundred times until the game is finished. No way, that would be ass. The large environments seem to have fooled people simply because that generally means "open sandbox". It shouldn't always be that way! We still need linear action games.
now it seems like just another shitty capcom game. so many of those this generation.It's not a Capcom game, though. It's a Grin Stockholm title. The same team which created Bionic Commando Rearmed (NOT Wanted). BCR rocked hard which is why I feel this deserves a shot.

BCR had a lot added. It's close if not equal to Mega Man Powered Up in terms of remakes. Even if you just want to judge the VR missions, Grin did an awesome job with those.

But BCR was just an old game engine given new visuals; Grin just remade an old game. This new BC is theirs and it doesn't seem so hot.
I'm not sure if I'm going to pick it up tomorrow or not.
It's a shame, because GRIN has done some pretty great things with existing properties. The PC version of GRAW shat all over the console versions.Ehh, I don't know about that. The two games were VERY different and opinions could go either way. I never liked the PC version of GRAW. It was very trial and error while lacking the visual panache of the 360 game.
Anyone pick it up?
I'm taking one for the team.
I picked it up tonight; went to Best Buy and they had none. EB Games had one copy left. The clerk said they only got two copies in, gave me the pre-order patches and the last copy; said no one seemed to care about it. I wonder if they under shipped the game knowing it was gonna be bomba?
PS3, since a) people say it doesn't have those screen-tearing issues, and b) since I have ReArmed on PS3 too.
the big plot reveal at the end of the game is almost as hilarious as FEAR 2.spoiler (click to show/hide)Your missing wife, the reason you accepted this mission, turns out to be your arm you've been using for the last 15 years. His wife is literally his arm. She was killed and put into a robotic arm. So, she decides that it's a good idea to KILL HERSELF so that you won't live life without your left arm after you lost it in a battle.[close]
Not having played the game, that makes no sense to me.

No, you have to replay the entire game and get all collectables in a single play. The same goes for the challenges.
