Bionic Commando Rearmed - Page 3

I might have but there's still no fix (as far as I know) for those of us who the game hates and decides to play at 1/5 the normal speed. Kinda like you're wading through water. Raising the priority in Task Manager smooths it out but then the game client trumps everything else on your system, including the god damn keyboard, so now you have smooth framerates and no way to control it.

A hearty Fuck You to all the people out there who for whatever godawful reason made non-inverted controls the norm. The extra enemies that spawn pretty much ruin any attempt.

I really loved this game though. Between this, braid, crastle crashers, and the pixeljunk ps3 games, I haven't bought a full priced game in a long time. DLC is probably the biggest perk of the current generation.

Super Hard is just that..super fucking hard. You have to be johnny on the spot and the last boss I just can't beat. I got his pattern down but you have to hit him with like 30 fucking rockets and I just can't last that long when two hits kills you. So working on gettting all the secrets timing those jumps and grapples just right is both fun and frustrating.

There was some problem with single core cpu's and performance which is what some people might be experiencing. They did release a patch just recently that you can go grab at Bionic Commando Patch and that should fix your problem.

Super Hard lvl you have to be very very patient on everything you do, I'm about half-way thru the game on super hard.

Also, if you have a friend that is pretty good to at the game, makes it a lot easier to run through as well. Buddy of mine was an even bigger fan of bionic commando than i am, having him to co-op w/makes things way less of a headache. Although on the last level, trying to split screen or time everything together, right before the chopper.. that whole course is a big pain.

I remember loving the old NES version, but I just couldnt get into this one. Not being able to jump seriously pissed me off.

Then playing on one of those time trial rooms, and taking fucking 79 tries for no reason other than the control would just not do what I was telling it to do, I called it quits. I'd probably enjoy the game more had I not got so frustrated at that time trail.

You couldn't jump in the NES version, either...

I've been watching my roommate play this game for a while now and I have to admit I'm impressed by the production value of the game for a simple little PSN download

I've been playing the pirated version on my keyboard when I get bored... holy fuck, what an exercise in futility. Maybe I've drunk myself retarded, but trying to do a ton of swinging jumps in a row, falling, and dying instantly to start at the beginning of an obstacle course is enough to make me rage quit in less than 30 minutes every time I pick it up.

Soygen · 09-12-2008, 05:29 PM

Yeah, playing on the keyboard seems like a terrible idea.

And /facepalm at loving the NES version and hating this one because of no jumps. =\

Zuuljin · 09-12-2008, 07:28 PM

I said I remember liking the old one, even without jumps. But now its just annoying now.
