AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! This is great news!

Existentialist · 10-16-2007, 02:51 AM

never played the original, but holy crap that looks awesome..

To help the game live up to its pedigree, Capcom has made development of the game an international affair. An American producer, a Japanese creative advisor, and Stockholm, Sweden-based studio GRIN will be collaborating on the project. GRIN's most recent projects have included the PC conversions of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter and its sequel.

That would appear to answer the question of who's developing the game.

Hell Ya!!

WickyWoo · 10-16-2007, 05:26 AM

GRIN is an excellent studio. They should do a great job coding it

Sweden seems to be the new hotbed of rockin games. MASSIVE, GRIN, DICE all there.

Holy freakin crap!! I just hope this turns into a great game, and not another horrible attempt at trying to revive a classic.

KidOmega123 · 10-16-2007, 05:32 AM

The original rocked my socks off!!!

Icemage · 10-16-2007, 05:58 AM

I liked Bionic Commando as much as anyone back when it released on the NES, but if Capcom thinks this is an appropriate apology for scrapping the PS3 version of Monster Hunter 3, they've got a screw loose somewhere.

Damiesmallz · 10-16-2007, 11:22 AM

There is some incredible detail in those pictures. I wonder what the story is.

ikbradley · 10-16-2007, 12:27 PM

Holy merciful Christ that is awesome. I loved Bionic Commando on NES.

Capcom needs to bring on Stryder and Megaman! Konami needs another Castlevania and Contra (side-scrolling ultra hidef). Also, River City Ransom and Double Dragon need to be revisited. River City Ransom is still the best side-scroll fighter.

Finally, I would buy a Wii if they did another Kid Icarus.

Is this the big Capcom news? Looks cool, but I thought they said they were announcing something specific to PS3.

One would hope so.

For those not in the know, THIS is the countdown we're talking about:

Less than 1 day left as of this posting. What it's set to reveal is anyone's guess at this point.

I am SO glad this is not the big PS3 announcement. Bionic Commando is all well and good but Capcom owes PS3 owners big time since they screwed us on Dead Rising, Lost Planet and gave Devil May Cry away.

Thanks for always giving us the heads up Shin-Ra! I can't check this stuff out from work, so this saves me from boring lunch hours

Blu Tiger · 10-16-2007, 03:38 PM

I loved the original. Man, that makes me feel old.

Project Overview Video Feature

..can't find and make that link now because the Gamespot site is down.

Check out our latest video to hear from Capcom producer Ben Judd, the only American producer working at the Japanese head office, as well as creative advisor Motohide Eshiro, and the game's director at Sweden-based Grin, Ulf Andersson.

Diehard fans of Bionic Commando won't want to miss this. How does Capcom coordinate development among three countries? Wondering what's up with those dreadlocks? Get those answers and more right here in the video.

More screens and artwork there too.

Would look a helluva lot better with AA.

That was one of my favorite gaming experiences when I was a kid. I have often thought if they were to make it now it would be awesome.
One of the reasons I like the R & C series is the swingshot always reminded me of bionic commando.

I am not liking the main character design. Science experiment gone wrong, Bad dreads and a tank top. Here is a shot of the original. I thought the new one should be more military looking.

X400 · 10-19-2007, 09:03 AM

that game was the shit back in the day, i hope this new one lives up to it. sure the graphics look great but lets hope the gameplay is up there too
