First batch of Bionic Commando screenshots from Capcom
We recently reported that Capcom has confirmed the development of Bionic Commando for the PC, Sony PlayStation 3, and the Microsoft Xbox 360, and showed you some videos and some artwork. This time we’ve got the first batch of Capcom’s Bionic Commando screenshots all for your enjoyment.
Bionic Commando was released in the late 80s by Capcom on several platforms, with the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) iteration being the most commercially successful. Bionic Commando introduced some new depth to what was then a stagnating 2D side-scroller genre with a more elaborate storyline than most of its peers and a bionic arm/grappling hook which can be used as a weapon and as a tool for scaling the stages a la Tarzan.
There was a clamor from Bionic Commando loyalists for a sequel, but other than a Nintendo Game Boy and Game Boy Color appearance, there were no fireworks seen for the franchise. Finally, the blast from the past caught a break, and from what we’re seeing in these screenshots, Bionic Commando looks like it’s going to be a worthwhile game for this generation.
