    Quote "I sure as hell hope the dreadlocks are selectable, otherwise I won't buy it out of disgust."..thats such an ignorant coment!!! Bionic Commando does look like a wanna be spiderman
    but i think it will have enough differences to justify me buying it.

    It looks like a hybrid of Spiderman & Lost Planet, minus the snow.

    Awesome though. =]

    "The game looks DERIVATIVE. It plays like spiderman, swinging from building to building in a GTA free roaming setting. No doubt the game will be handled best on a high-end PC."

    Show me an instance where a high-end PC will give you better performance than a PS3. If it does, it's so incredibly marginal at this point that you can't use it in an argument. Also, show me where said PC costs less than $3000.

    The original was awesome, this makes me want to go back and play it again. Though I could never beat the game without save states :/ It gets tough!

    I have the NES version and was all fun, now in this time I imagine that this game will be like DANTE meets Metal Gear, it will be cool!!!

    The "Bionic Commando Official Trailer 1" downloads the Zelda Phantom Hour Glass Video?

    SMGrawks....I dont know what dreads you have seen but everybody that has dreads ISNT DIRTY. And not washing your hair is THE LAST THING YOU DO, to achieve dreads man. I have dreads and I wash my hair all the time. You need to read up before you make blanket statements about things. ANYWAY...I think the hair is cool, but I think in the case of showing movement velocity they could have used a different hair texture but on the other hand the guy did just get out of prison, there arent alot of hair salons in prison....

    Bionic Commando was a gameboy game (i still have it). And this is like on the gameboy, a guy with a hook on his arm and the other hand a gun.

    First of all, girls don't even go near men with dreads. They're disgusting.

    Second of all, to achieve dreads you have to stop washing your hair. So dreads are hair so full of skin oils that they stiffen. You call that evolving? I'll stop washing under my arms so people will think I'm from the future!

    Spiderman has got some competition!!! Who knows? This might deliver the experience that lacked in the Spidey series + some extra punch!!! Oh yah and for everybody that is hatin on the dreads, the character was made like that for a reason. Games are evolving, and seeing the same aesthetically themed charcters gets mundane.

    Nice trailer. I don't mind if the swinging aspect is like spider-man because, if nothing else, the swing mechanics were the part that they always did right. I'm more curious about how they are going to implement the weapons in with all that swinging.

    Looking forward to this title.

    This game looks lame and it also looks like spiderman for some reason

    HCMF: The character has dreads because they had to have something that would let you see the movement in the swings that you make, so you get more of a physical feedback that you are actually swinging at high speeds. Atleast thats what they said.

    OK, so I watch fired up the orginal played it for a bit, watched the trailer, and here is what I have to report. Why does the character have stupid dreads? why does it look more like a spiderman game than the last few spiderman games, whats with the bad story? But the graphics look good. The orginal was not a good as I remembered, didn't hold up as well as some of the ofther clasics. makes me feel like I do when hollywood "re-invisions" crap like the beverly hill billies or mchales navy...

    You guys seem suprised that it's like spiderman... It's a remake/sequal(?) to a game that had a dude swinging around like spiderman in the first place. This should have been expected.

    I sure as hell hope the dreadlocks are selectable, otherwise I won't buy it out of disgust.

    btw n00b, all games are derivatives of something else.
