Bionic Commando Rearmed & Pub Games to XBLA this Wed
Since release dates and prices for Capcom’s beefed up remake of Bionic Commando, titled Rearmed, and the Fable 2 Pub Games are already known, this post should act more as a reminder than actual news. In case you’re not familiar with either of these two titles, or just want to refresh your memory, head inside for all the details.
As part of the Summer of Arcade, Bionic Commando Rearmed will be swinging onto the download service this Wednesday for the preferable price of 800 Microsoft Points. Sporting a new, updated look, new weapons, online leaderboards, two-player co-op, and four-player multiplayer, the XBLA version of Bionic Commando should be a good way to get all nostalgic about the arcade classic.
Features
- Classic gameplay: Experience the classic Bionic Commando gameplay focused around the use of the bionic arm.
- Multiplayer modes: Team up or go All vs. All in multiplayer modes, including Last Man Standing, Death Match, and the intriguingly named Don’t Touch the Floor.
- Updated graphics: The game has received a total modern visual revamp, including dynamic shadows, particle effects, and environmental damage.
- Cross-game interoperability: Complete specific parts of Bionic Commando Rearmed to unlock new content and hints for the Bionic Commando sequel.
- Visual style: The in-game art was designed by one of Capcom’s most talented artists, Toshiaki Mori.
Additionally, Xbox Live users will be able to get a head start on earning gold for use in Fable 2 this Wednesday via the Fable 2 Pub Games. The title will run for 800 MSP and will include the following games:
- Keystone – a combination of Craps and Roulette
- Spinnerbox – an updated take on slot machines
- Fortune’s Tower – a press your luck style of game
- Shell – a tutorial of all three games
We’ll let you know when the two games go Live on Wednesday. Until then, let us know if you intend to get either of these in the comments below.
