Capcom: Bionic Commando – Demo @ Xbox Live

If you have a 360 and want to play Bionic Commando, you’ll be in luck because you’ll get to play the demo first. As a fan of the original version and its remake, I wish I could have an advanced copy of the game, but at least the demo will just do… whenever it becomes available. There was no mention of a PS3 demo yet [ 🙁 ] .

Si tienen un 360 y quieren jugar Bionic Commando, tendrán suerte porque jugarán la “demo” primero. Como un aficionado de la versión original y de su nueva versión,  quisiera poder conseguir una copia avanzada del juego, pero por lo menos, la “demo” será suficiente… cuando sea que esté disponible. No se mencionó nada de la “demo” para el PS3 aún [ 🙁 ].

Capcom is excited to announce that the demo for Bionic Commando will launch on Xbox Live in the coming weeks!  Focusing on Bionic Commando’s exhilarating online multiplayer mode, the demo will feature “Vertigo,” one of the game’s 16 multiplayer maps where 8 players will go head to head in an all out Deathmatch. But this is no ordinary Deathmatch. Swing through the air while showering your opponents with hot lead, use the grapple to zip to safety before a grenade explodes at your feet and laugh as enemies plummet from the tops of skyscrapers following a well aimed zip-kick to the chest!

The full version of Bionic Commando will feature Solo & Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag. But make no mistake, multiplayer is just one part of the new Bionic Commando experience.

In single player mode, Bionic Commando sees the return of the bionically-enhanced Nathan “R.A.D.” Spencer. Time has not been kind to Spencer: Five years after his heroic defeat of the Imperials, he has been betrayed by the government he swore to serve, imprisoned for crimes he didn’t commit, and sentenced to death. Bionic Commando transposes the much loved swing-and-shoot gameplay of the 8-bit original onto a stunning 3D environment of towering buildings, suspended roadways and monorails, deep canyons and sheer rock faces, which are traversed using swinging, scaling, climbing and wall-walking techniques.

The retail version of Bionic Commando will ship for Xbox 360 & PlayStation 3 on Tuesday May 19th! Until then, check out the online multiplayer demo available to download later this month.
