Bionic Commando headed for XBLA, PSN

A soaped-up remake of the original NES game, that is
Capcom is reviving the NES original version of Bionic Commando as a downloadable game in the modern era.

The new version of the game will be made available as a downloadable title through both PSN on PS3 and XBLA for 360.

That's extent of the details Capcom was willing to share with Famitsu (via Gamefront) but we expect it'll pack shiny new graphics, the usual achievements for the 360 version, and possibly even some new XBL-related features.

It's probably no coincidence that a new Bionic Commando game is also due for release later this year on PS3, 360 and PC, and you can read our hands-on review of that now. Go on, it's looking pretty good.

Actually, thats pretty good news. I've never played the original, so the forthcoming remake / sequel thing is not meaning a lot to me.

This sounds great! Can't wait to rock this game out and get some good "Non-drug inducing" flashbacks. Twisted Evil

"soaped up remake"?

Is it going to have a Bikini Carwash inspired level?

Hang about, wheres the PC download?

Should be excellent. Can't wait to pick this up off of XBox Live Arcade...beat the original back when I was a lad.

Here's hoping they fix the 'Engrish' that was prevalent throughout the game, especially the last boss.

Hell, come to think of it...anyone think the last boss will be tweaked somewhat on this version, considering how PC everyone is anymore?
