Marine Mike · 08-14-2008, 11:45 PM

Okay this sucks, there are no trophies yet for this. I'm regretting purchasing it.

They are coming in a patch which I would bet will be released within 2 weeks.

Looks like I'll wait til then to play as now it'll be worthless. Thanks for the heads up.

Downloaded it and I am absolutely loving it, I hadn't read much about the difficulty as someone else previously posted. All in all, the best 10.70 I've spent in a long time. So what that there are no trophies right now, when they come I will replay it. I can see myself playing this one over and over anyway

I could have sworn someone mentioned that because the patch will come so early, they WILL be retroactive when the patch hits. Cant say 100% positive, but someone out there mentioned it.

But yeah, like everyone else, I really suck! But am completely loving it!

i dont think that will ever happen. you could just share the save file with the world and everyone would have them automatically

silversnake · 08-15-2008, 03:48 AM

man i love this game. taking breaks so i don't finish it completely. lol

i just bought eden yesterday as well and have to play that ...

i've noticed there are some similarities between the two games .

Well I spent about an hour with Bionic Commando : Rearmed this evening and here are my early impressions.

(1) Price is right at $10.

(2) Pretty faithful to the original as far as game mechanics go. The swinging seems a bit tighter and tougher than the original, but also a bit deeper too, as chain swinging has some neat emergent platforming possibilities that are covered in the Advanced Tutorial.

(3) Graphics are good for what they are. A nice, zesty coat of paint over my 8-bit NES memories. Animations are extremely good, however.

(4) Difficulty, difficulty, difficulty. Platforming is tricky, combat is tricky. It's not as hard as, say, Ninja Gaiden, but it's definitely up there.

All in all, a nice, meaty game for your $10. Definitely a good buy!

fsavoie · 08-15-2008, 01:20 PM

I've bought it yesterday, but could'nt play more that 5 minutes... before I had to fight my wife to play videogames... but I just had a baby couple weeks ago so now I have to fight both the wife and the baby... and it seems that I'm loosing....

Anyway the five minutes was really cool! Nice graphics, nice game play!

statikcat · 08-15-2008, 03:10 PM

How is anyone getting past the dark stage? I think it is "5". I played with a friend last night and we could not get past it. We get past the initial spikes and a bit farther.. but it gets to the point where grenades and rockets don't light up the room hardly at all and you are just in a guessing game as to where to go. It's fun but this level is one of the worst designed levels in a game I have ever seen. Unless I am missing something - like a FLASHLIGHT!

did you pickup the flares ?

i forgot what number but go to the levels where you pickup the various key cards , it's in one of those doors. Sorry it's a little vague but i forgot what number it was in

statikcat · 08-15-2008, 08:00 PM

Doh! I figured I was missing something. There are only 2, maybe 3 levels before 5 I can access. I did not get any cards either. Is it on the level where you go straight up the whole time and fight the big bulldoze ontop at the end?

the cards are in the "Safe areas" at the very top. items like cards, flares , etc are given to you in safe areas so you can use them in your mission. I can't tell you which areas because i've already picked them up but try either area 13,15,16. I think the flares are in 16 . Good luck !

I believe I originally beat this game without beating stage 4.....this was almost impossible as I was shocked at how far I made it earlier today...
