Luke Plunkett: "You may have heard. Capcom's Bionic Commando revamp has tanked, and tanked in a big way, selling only 27,000 units during the month of May. Which begs the question: why?
After all, the same developers (Grin) released a Bionic Commando game last year that lacked the advertising, budget and horsepower of the "main" title, yet it still managed to sell over 130,000 copies during its first week on sale, despite being a port of a difficult, antiquated arcade/NES title."
The Humble Capcom Heroic Collection Bundle just launched recently. It has ten items including Monster Hunter Rise, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection, and more.
I took advantage of the $1 deal for lost planet 3, strider, bionic commando and mega man. 3 of them run great on my steam deck. bionic commando sadly does not.
ive left humble bundle long time ago the pricimng is now off as well as game collection. humble monthly used to be excellent but thasts also downhill
"On this week's episode of The 1099 Podcast, the composer at 10 Chambers, former audio director at Starbreeze, and man behind the sound design in favorites like Payday 2, Bionic Commando Rearmed, and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Simon Viklund, joins host Josiah Renaudin to explain how sound gets into games. Simon details what it's like creating both music and sounds for major video games, how aspiring designers can break into the industry, whether or not you have to capture all of your own original sounds, and what makes upcoming co-op shooter GTFO special."
Neil writes: "Whilst many out there will be hotly anticipating jumping on a plane and heading off for a summer break, even more will just be happy to kick back with a controller in hand, seeing out the summer with some hot and sweaty gaming sessions. And what better way to enjoy the delights of the summer sun than by picking up a new game or two at discounted prices.

i can sum it all up for you
BIONIC COMMANDO = GARBAGE
wait 27,000 in a month for a ps3/360 game .__.
so this was outsold by madworld in the same time period
*looks outside the window* OMG the apocalypse Dx
Bionic Commando: Rearmed = Good
Bionic Commando (2009) = Bad
I also have to say the use of the word "antiquated" is more than a little insulting for a game that outplays it's successor.
BC:R didn't lack advertising. There are still like 20 videoes and stuff on the psn that was released prior to the game.
Capcom still have to add trophysupport to BC:R like they said at release.
And who wouldn't like to boicott capcom. F them.
And Grin? Wanted and Terminator are two fantastic AAA titles. not.
