So I finally tried this game, so far 4h in and I must say it is really fun. It also has quite the Escape from NY feel that made me like the game immediately :) Works fine without any problems. Looking forward to finish it.

Bionic Commando (2009) is pretty funny, even though it feels like it takes itself too seriously. It’s unclear if that was intentional or not, but either way it ends up being hilarious. There are a ton of F-bombs and a lot of different tropes that make it kind of entertaining in a weird way. It’s also funny how a lot of the NPCs are on a first-name basis with the protagonist. They say “I’m going to F*** You up Spencer” all the time, like they have a personal gripe with him, and something about that just lands. The game runs pretty well overall, but it does feel kind of janky, especially with the grappling. There are moments where the character gets stuck on a wall trying to jump off, and won’t unlatch unless the game is paused. Not sure if that’s user error or the game, but it happens more than once. Combat actually feels really good at times. Headshots make that clean “ding” sound that’s super satisfying, and the sniper getting one-shot kills just feels great every time. It’s also super cool being able to grab soldiers with the bionic arm and toss them off cliffs. The ‘90s action movie ridiculousness really stands out. The pacing is well done, it doesn’t take long to complete, and it never overstays its welcome. There’s also that old-school vibe where it feels like every main bad guy is European. The character model from the tutorial would have been a better choice, more like the older Spencer from Bionic Commando Rearmed with the red hair and cool sunglasses. That version looks way better than the one with dreads in this game. Originally picked up alongside Bionic Commando Rearmed for just $3.51 total for both games. I got the platinum trophy on PS3 back in 2010, and coming back for that nostalgic hit does not disappoint. The PC version looks phenomenal after all these years. It’s surprising there aren’t Steam achievements in this one. A remake would actually be really interesting, especially if it leaned into a more fluid swinging style like the Insomniac Spider-Man games. Capcom feels like a perfect fit for that kind of gameplay, and it would be great to see them explore that concept. Overall, it’s a mix of janky gameplay, ‘90s action tropes, and unintentionally funny moments, but that kind of makes it memorable.

A true gem overlooked, I mean it was the wild west when this game was made, back when companys took risk, hell it was the only risk for the Commando, story was.... Different, voice acting top notch by my man and Legend Mike Patton! I bought it again 17 years later even better on steam deck
