At its core, Bionic Commando Rearmed is the same game from two decades ago. You play as Nathan "Radd" Spencer, a sort of super-soldier equipped with a bionic arm. His job is to save Super Joe and stop what is essentially the resurrection of Hitler (with name changed to protect the innocent, apparently). It's that bionic arm that makes our pal Radd stand out from other side-scrolling heroes.

The arm is a fully functional tool. With it you can attach to most surfaces and swing. The mechanics are fairly simple, but mastering the nuances of the swing takes considerable amounts of time. And you will need to become one with the arm if you hope to conquer Bionic Commando Rearmed -- particularly the final level (newly created for this version), which will put your swinging skills to the test.
