Bionic Commando's side-scrolling revival, coming to the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Store, gets a Mature (M) rating from the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB). Bionic Commando Rearmed won't reach the wide audience it was originally intended for. M Rated downloadable games are the minority on the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Store.
Could this sabotage Capcom and developer GRIN's attempt at reviving the game for a new generation? Can Capcom make profit on the game that the community voted to go for $10 (rather than $15)?
The Humble Capcom Heroic Collection Bundle just launched recently. It has ten items including Monster Hunter Rise, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection, and more.
I took advantage of the $1 deal for lost planet 3, strider, bionic commando and mega man. 3 of them run great on my steam deck. bionic commando sadly does not.
ive left humble bundle long time ago the pricimng is now off as well as game collection. humble monthly used to be excellent but thasts also downhill
"On this week's episode of The 1099 Podcast, the composer at 10 Chambers, former audio director at Starbreeze, and man behind the sound design in favorites like Payday 2, Bionic Commando Rearmed, and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Simon Viklund, joins host Josiah Renaudin to explain how sound gets into games. Simon details what it's like creating both music and sounds for major video games, how aspiring designers can break into the industry, whether or not you have to capture all of your own original sounds, and what makes upcoming co-op shooter GTFO special."
Neil writes: "Whilst many out there will be hotly anticipating jumping on a plane and heading off for a summer break, even more will just be happy to kick back with a controller in hand, seeing out the summer with some hot and sweaty gaming sessions. And what better way to enjoy the delights of the summer sun than by picking up a new game or two at discounted prices.

Sweet deal I'm glad they didn't get rid of that one spot near the end just to avoid the M rating. That's the classic moment in the game and to get rid of it would of been sad.
What's with all the doom and gloom over this? I'm sure it'll still sell a boat load seeing they are making this remake for what they feel a lot of people played the original which came out long ago so most are of age to get M rated games. Also why cry that it's $10 not $15?!
... has rating a video game "M" stopped it from selling?
If anything it means it will sell MORE.
THE HONOUR OF THE KNIGHTS

Yes, There arent that many people thatcare about the rating system. People from 10 to > will be buying this game. I dont know how many they have to sell to make a profit, but i wouldnt be surprise if it sells 1,5 million maybe more over both consoles. Thats 15 million dollar, probably alot more than it cost to develop it. Especially if count in that you have no manufacturing cost since it´s a downloadable game..
Im buying it the moment it is available for download. I saw a development video of this game and it looks great.
SPOILER ALERT: *NOW WITH NEW HI DEF EXPLODING HITLER HEAD ACTION!!* I've been looking forward to this game remake for years :)
