Another week, another fantastic download game, this time courtesy of the team at Capcom.
Essentially a remake of the classic NES original, this version of Bionic Commando not only looks great, but has gameplay to match.
What separates Bionic Commando Rearmed from other platform games is the inability to jump. Instead, you use you bionic arm to grab and swing your way across the intricate levels, while wiping out unsavoury sorts with your weapons.
Controls are initially slightly frustrating as your mind attempts to grapple with the lack of a jump button. But after 10 minutes, things fall into place, and traversing the levels becomes fluid.
But the game is rock hard. Even on the easy setting, it provides a stiff challenge.
Screenshots don't really do the game justice, as the game looks stunning on both 360 and PS3, with great animation and gorgeous lighting effects. The music, too, is suitably fitting, with a fantastic retro vibe.
The quality of downloadable games for both the 360 and PS3 has been fantastic over the last few weeks and Bionic Commando Rearmed continues the trend.
For just 800 points on 360, or £6.99 on PS3, it's a game that everyone should check out.
