Bionic Commando swings back into action!
--------------------
The game starts with a falsely imprisoned Nathan Spencer (the original Bionic Commando). A terrorist attack on Ascension City gives him a chance to redeem his name. He is sent to the ruins to investigate. You're not going to find the next MGS4 in Bionic Commando's story, but it still manages to be interesting.
Gameplay = 8.5
--------------------
The core gameplay of Bionic Commando's single player consists of mostly swinging around and shooting things. It's alot more fun then it sounds. Swinging may feel strange at first, but after some practice you will be an expert. You will also learn different abilities like grappling on to objects and flinging them at enemies or lashing out your grappling hook, swinging it around killing all nearby enemies. You have a HUGE arsenal of weapons, from grenade launchers to shotguns to machinguns. Each weapon will provide useful through the game's challenging single player.
Multiplayer = 8.0
--------------------
This is probably one of the best multiplayer experiences I have ever, well, experienced. You can play online with up to 8 players. There is a huge variety of maps, and each one is unique and fun. Each player will start with a pistol, so the multiplayer is not like COD4 where the most experienced player starts with the best weapon and everyone else gets their butt kicked. There are only 3 modes - Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and Capture the Flag.
Graphics and Audio = 9.0
--------------------
The graphics in Bionic Commando are top notch, and so is the audio. The environments are very detailed, the voice acting is alright, and the weapons sound great. The character details are also very impressive.
Challenge = 10
--------------------
You haven't played a challenging game until you've played Bionic Commando. This game manages to challenge players with it's difficulty level without overdoing it.
Replay Value = 7.0
--------------------
Sadly, the replay value for this game is small - considering that if you want to find all of the collectibles in the single player, and you miss one, you will have to start all over. You cannot go back into certain levels of the game and find the ones you're missing.
Soundtrack = 10
--------------------
The soundtrack in Bionic Commando is a main highlight. It's what I like to call an epic WIN. The main menu music is an awesome remake of the first stage of BC: Rearmed. The background music in multiplayer matches is completely amazing as well.
-I strongly incourage you to try this game. You won't be dissappointed in Bionic Commando.
