Downloading the demo. 1200pts seems steep unless this is epic.

The first screenshots did nothing for me. I'll try it but I'm prepared to be disappointed.

The graphics look better when you're playing IMO.

Game seems solid, 800 points seems better though. Not ruling out a buy.

I like what I see so far, seems to capture the gameplay of the original fairly nicely. It does lack a bit of the charm, but that could be the nostalgia talking because the graphics and art both look really good.

I was digging it until I realized that the demo was already over a quarter of the game and that 4 of the 14 'levels' are boss fights.

Probably about two hours then, to play through the whole thing. Maybe even a bit less than that.  :-\

Probably a lot less than that. One of the cheevs is a sub-hour Hard mode completion.

I did the demo in 15 minutes or so.

Yeah, that's too much for a game that's going to be over with a barely an hour and a half.

PC version is cracked and up for download. It doesn't compare to the original at all. Kinda sucks, actually. Glad I didn't buy it.

sigh, when will they learn. The 1200 price point is so off putting for lots of people.

This was done by some European devs.  Just because it stars a character you have nostalgia for means shit if the people who created the character and the gameplay in the original had nothing to do with this new piece of crap.

I'm avoiding this just like I am Sonic 4.

Maybe I am. :lol

I don't like this idea of farming out old IPs to some random developers in Croatia or wherever, you never know whether you're going to get something good or just a random piece of crap.

Uhhh, Bionic Commando was a piece of shit that flopped massively.  And if you're talking about Re-Armed, it's a Famicom game with a modern HD skin.

:duh

It flopped but the game was so awesome (GOTY 2009 even). Re-armed is incredible. Hand in your gamer card immediately

Then save your praise for the Japanese folks who made the original.
