    So, we're accusing the sequel to the original 'swinging from buildings' game of being "derivative"? *confused* Of course it's derivative, they were the first ones to do it! That's like accusing DMC4 of being a DMC ripoff.

    That said, I think my primary interest in the title is nostalgia. I feel platforming is becoming a dated game mechanic, and although I'd like to see them do innovative stuff with the gameplay, I don't anticipate it. Basically, I envision playing the dark prince from PoP T2T except with guns. Should be fun, but not one of those titles that redefines a genre.

    The voice acting and the intro look as cheesy as they come, not good not good

    Looks fun. I remember the old-school Bionic Commando from the consoles and the one at the arcade. Brings back memories.

    mrkame16, exactly. And the only good thing about spiderman was the slinging. (I assume thats what you're thinking of) So its not a bad thing. Looks very interesting.

    All I have to say is this: the game looks good, and damn fun to boot. Roaming around a post-nuclear bombed-out city with a freaking bionic arm taking out baddies in ridiculous ways - what's not to like? Seriously, I am getting this as soon as it hits the market.

    Nice to hear the re-made music from the original game.

    I can't believe some of the statements some people can make. You ought to re-read what you type...ridiculous.

    Is that David Hayter narrating the trailer?

    It looked awsome from the screenshots but that trailer looks fantastic, and it isn't even finished. I can't wait to see the finished product.
