Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 Review (RunDLC)

Compared to its critically acclaimed prequel, Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 is somewhat disappointing. Capcom and the developer, Fatshark, failed to include online co-op (a feature missing from the previous title), a new hint system makes bosses pathetically easy and PlayStation 3 owners must connect online for the game to work, three complaints that’ll scare away potential buyers, especially those that consider themselves hardcore. These issues notwithstanding, there’s a lot to love about Nathan “Radd” Spencer’s newest adventure, making this a flawed but enjoyable effort that pays homage to the series’ roots.
