Capcom's Bionic Commando: Rearmed to Rule on PS3 and PSP

Capcom's Bionic Commando: Rearmed to Rule on PS3 and PSP

None

Capcom has pulled out all the stops for Bionic Commando: Rearmed. The development team has gone ahead and retroactively added Remote Play support. That means PS3 owners can play the game remotely via the PSP, assuming they also own the portable Swiss Army console.

Additionally, Dualshock 3 controls will be supported and a “VERY cool surprise” is in store for those who purchase the game via PSN. We’ll have to wait for E3 to find out what it is. Here’s what producer Ben Judd had to say:

To kick off this edition, we’d like to mention some of the “PSN specific” content that you can expect for Rearmed. There will be Dualshock 3 support, because we all know that games that vibrate are better and besides… there really is no reason not to implement a feature that has become the industry standard. Also, Rearmed is one of the only PSN games to feature Remote Play support. This one wasn’t as easy to add and, matter of fact, there is one point where we had to “creatively” reprogram the controls to give players the illusion of using 2 sticks (you’ll know when you see it). The classic 2D side-scrolling graphics really fit with the PSP and just make the PSN version all the more cooler.

Of course there is one more VERY cool surprise for those of you who purchase the PSN version… but that is another story for another time.
