The final date for completing Bionic Commando Rearmed is closing in - we're stabilizing the game and polishing all the details now, and soon this product of almost a year of late nights and hard work will ship to a digital distribution channel near you!
Since the game was announced in January, we have released trailers showing off the single player campaign, the co-op ability and the challenge rooms - and yet there's more to come!
Capcom and Grin have poured so much love into this one, and I sure hope it shows: from gameplay to graphic style to music, this is a love letter to the entire sidescrolling genre and its fans, and the original Bionic Commando and its fans in particular.
Within weeks we will see with sad eyes how it leaves to enter the approval process, and I'm sure that just days after things have calmed down here at the office and our schedules say "wait and see", me and the team will already start longing to get back to the backbreaking work we've gotten used to during the project.
Needless to say we've already started dreaming about what retro project we could do next if the opportunity should arise... There's this passion for the old gaming heritage within the team - and out there in the gaming community too, as made obvious by the overwhelming reception that news of BCR has gotten - that make us dare have these dreams.
First things first, however - the most exciting thing for us right now is without a doubt to see what reception the game will get. It's not due very long now, so get ready to check it out. Don't make us waste our love! This one is for everyone that enjoys pure gaming fun!

Yah
I really really can't wait for this guys, I hope it gets you money and you can do more of them, and that the market takes better notice. Been telling all my friends who have consoles, show them the trailers. They seem really intrested. Of course make sure you let GTA die down a bit before you realese.And I've already said this somewhere, but if anybody happens to read this, will you be releasing Bionic Commando Rearmed on the UK PSN at the same time it's on the US PSN? It's just SCEE seems really bad at getting things up in time with SCEA. For example Riff: Everyday Shooter took four months to get on the UK PSN store after the US realese. Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo still isn't out on the UK Store either. I realise you have to get it rerated and translated, but more companies are getting better with Europe.
And again I live in the UK it doesn't need to be translated, surely the UK PSN server is seperate from the German or French PSN. Sorry for the rant, but if it takes ages to come over here I'll be really annoyed. Please don't forget Europe Ben! Or you Gearoid *evil look*
