Product Description:
The first true sequel to the classic 1988 Nintendo Entertainment System original, Bionic Commando sees the return of the bionically-enhanced Nathan "Rad" Spencer, voiced by Mike Patton, the former lead singer of Faith No More. Time has not been kind to Spencer: 10 years after his heroic defeat of the Imperials in the original game, he has been betrayed by the government he swore to serve, imprisoned for crimes he didn't commit, and sentenced to death. On the very day of Spencer's execution, terrorists detonate a massive experimental weapon in Ascension City, unleashing an intense earthquake that has turned the city into rubble and wiped out its population. With the terrain in ruins and the city's air defense grid now in the control of a massive terrorist force whose goal remains unclear, the FSA have only one option left - a behind-the-lines assault. The perfect job for a Bionic Commando. Bionic Commando transposes the swing-and-shoot gameplay of the 8-bit original to a stunning 3D environment of towering buildings, suspended roadways and monorails, deep canyons and sheer rock faces, where every environment is scalable using swinging, scaling, climbing and wall-walking techniques. Starring Mike Patton, the former lead singer of Faith No More, as the voice of Nathan Spencer
Amazon.com Product Description:
Bionic Commando is back, now on the PS3, 20 years after the NES classic was initially released. And returning with it is the swinging bionic arm game mechanic that made it so popular and critically acclaimed. Bionic Commando makes the move to 3D, and gamers will be able to grapple, swing, and scale a giant environment filled with buildings, canyons, and more.

Bionic Commando takes place 10 years after the 1988 game, with Nathan Spencer again the protagonist. Voiced by Mike Patton, ex-Faith No More singer, Spencer is betrayed by his government, falsely accused of murder and sentenced to execution. Just prior to his execution, however, the city is bombed and Spencer is asked to track down the terrorists in return for his freedom.
Bionic Arm Offers New Control Possibilities
Like in the original game, the bionic arm is what separates Bionic Commando from other games. With it, you can swing between buildings, grapple onto ledges and zip up, walk walls, pull apart the landscape, throw heavy objects, attack enemies, and more.
Giant, Sweeping World to Explore
As you swing around with your bionic arm, you'll be subjected to beautifully detailed scenery that ranges from Ascension City and its bridges and skyscrapers, to outdoor environments like canyons. By mastering different swinging techniques, players will be able to reach different areas and target enemies while mid-swing or even hanging upside down. If you misjudge your swing by even a little bit, you might find yourself plunging to your doom.
Swinging Multiplayer Fun for up to Ten Players
Bionic Commando allows up to 10 players at a time to get in on the swinging fun, finding new ways and techniques with the bionic arm to dispatch your friends and enemies. Maps are designed with the swing and gun game mechanic in mind, rewarding players who are adept at simultaneously swinging and aiming.
Bionic Commando is an updated and beautiful take on the classic, bringing the core elements of the 8-bit original into a beautiful, 3D world. Fans of the classic and newcomers alike will delight at the unique game play options that the bionic arm afford.

It has great action but this is a new type of action game on the playstation 3 platform so it's not like games they have out now in 2010. This could have been suited for PS2. If your a Bionic Comando fan you should like this they brought back everyone and even revamped the music from the past games with classical tones.......Enjoy

I love this game and I can't get enough. It is the reason (and Bionic Commando Rearmed - BCR) for which I bought the PS3. If you finish BCR you could unlock Spencer's original character for gameplay and the story animations. You also could get a prototype gun that I think shoots faster. You could buy the game now for under $20... for that price you can't afford not to give it a try (don't pay attention the downers)! You will realize what a great investment you made.
Yes, it is hard to ... Read More

If you enjoy sitting through the same cutscene over and over (which can't be skipped), you'll probably love this one.
Oh - I forgot to mention, you can't save your progress after completing a challenging section. The game decides when you get to save. That means you will do the challenging sections over, and over, and over again, since every time you die, you go back to the last auto-save point.
But my favorite? After you die (and you'll be dying, many times) you go back ... Read More

First of all, the story.
It's kind of cool. The hero is sent to jail for life, then bad guys attack the city with a lot hell nuclear power, then the hero is released from jail and suddenly he is the only hope, the original, the BIONIC COMMANDO.
Controls are hard at the beginning, mastering the swing is hard but in my case, after I worked it for a while I got it pretty nice.
I find the picture quality very nice at 720P. The concept of a destroyed city, very big place ... Read More

Just want to let everybody know that this game is far better than what the reviews say.
After playing this game I give it an 8.5, the only thing that the developers should have spent more time working with is the shooting. The shooting is not great, but it's not bad either however, the bionic arm actions make you forget about the shooting, I mean why would you want to shoot at enemies when you can throw cars at them or perform a death from above move.
