BC Weekly Field Report: #8Vote Now!

Gearoid Reidy, Thursday 07-24-2008, 10:11:04

It’s girls, girls, girls in this week’s Field Report!! Well, at least 2.

Be Bionic Commando!

We finally broke out the Bionic Arm that we’ve been teasing you with these past few weeks, and as you can see by the picture, it was a huge hit. Designed by a Japanese company more used to the making of movie props, we’re bringing the expensive accessory around E3 and Comic Con, periodically allowing the extremely fortunate to try it on and learn how it feels to be a Bionic Commando, without the expensive technology and need to forfeit one of your limbs. 

Meet Bionic Commando!

Capcom has quite the presence at Comic Com in San Diego where, if you’re lucky, you might meet Mega Man, an authentic Bionic Commando, Ben Judd and demigoddess/star of the new Street Fighter movie, Kristen Kreuk. I know who I most want to meet off that list and, sorry Ben, it isn’t you. I think we all understand how these things are.

Check out some early pics of Capcom’s assault on Comicon right here. We'll be reporting more from Comic Con, where Ben, comic book writer Andy Diggle and comic book cover artist Dave Gibbons will be appearing, very shortly.

Hear Bionic Commando!

Finally, we’ve added another slice of the Bionic Commando music you know and love to the Bionic Music Player to your left – an orchestrated reworking of the Area 08 music by the ever-talented Jamie Christopher of Soundelux, known as Groeder’s Anthem. Merely click on the big orange button to treat your ears.

[Insert Verb Here] Bionic Commando!

Nope, sorry, we’re all out. Stop by again shortly!

Wow the Bionic Commando station at Comic-con

I can't get to comic-con for pretty obvious reasons, but seriously the Bionic Commando booth is like a peep show. "I.D. Required" WTF!!! Are there naked women in there or what? Now you guys are making me wish that I had gone to comic-con.

Mm, Area 08. Goes down smooth.

I guess the name of the track implies that Groeder will be around in the new 3D BC. Good news.

Comic Con

Man from what I've been reading CAPCOM is RIPPING COMIC CON A NEW ONE. Yet I can't seem to get any coverage of it.... G4 isn't really covering it, and nothing is out at IGN yet either which makes me very sad.

I realize the first day of Comic Con isn't even done yet, STILL I NEED MY FIX... I'm like an addict here and I can't stand the fact that people are playing demo's of Bionic Commando and I can't.

Also I don't know if anyone has tried to "Crank one out" with the bionic arm yet, but if I were there that would be my surprise for Capcom...

I know what you guys are thinking "MAN HYAKITAKI IS SICK", but come on you can't tell me that wasn't the first thing you thought of when you saw the real life version of the Bionic Arm.

Wow

That has got to be one of the most amazing promotional items ever. Give technology 15 years and I bet I will be hearing of Ben swinging from building to building. Just listening to the podcast now and it is pretty hilarious, can't wait till I get to see more details on either BC game.

By the way "MAN HYAKITAKI IS SICK"
