Capcom's remake of NES game Bionic Commando, subtitled Rearmed, will hopefully be released on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and PC in July.
That's the tentative timing according to producer Ben Judd, who said as much to us at Capcom's Captivate 08 event in Las Vegas last week.
Capcom's press pack also confirmed the pricing: 800 Microsoft Points (GBP 6.80 / EUR 9.60) on Xbox Live Arcade, USD 9.99 on PSN and USD 14.99 on PC.
Bionic Commando Rearmed re-imagines the 1988 NES game in silky new graphics, retaining most of its level design but introducing more than 50 challenge rooms.
Players still navigate the world in 2D, using the bionic arm grapple hook device to swing around levels and take out enemies with projectile weapons.
It also has a two-player co-op mode and multiplayer, with deathmatch, last man standing and "Don't Touch The Floor" modes.
On show in Vegas, Rearmed looked in great shape, drawing plenty of attention from the dozens of journalists flown in from around the world to check out the company's line-up for 2008 and beyond.
Its big brother, Bionic Commando, is also due out on 360, PS3 and PC in 3D and looked fantastic. Check out our in-depth hands-on report for more on its progress and the new sections, multiplayer included, shown off at Captivate 08.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
