The game is incredibly fun. Naturally I got introduced to spencer from marvel vs capcom 3 and at the time this game received much less than favorable reviews so I never picked it up back then. Fast forward to so many years later and I see the game on sale on steam. And having played so much marvel 3 and he's in infinite as well, I wanted to see how his reboot debut game was. Its pretty much exactly what you imagine it to be. Third person shooter mechanics with the whole twist being the bionic arm. When youre in range of targetable object or land with your bionic arm, you can shoot to hook it and if in the air spencer will begin to swing with momentum like a pendulum. Chaining multiple swings together is very satisfying. You can also press a button to bring yourself straight to the object/land and another press will have spencer jump atop the latched on target which is great to scale things vertically quickly. You can also use the arm in combat, hoisting enemies up in the air and slamming them down into more enemies which is satisfying. Or latching on to a target and jumping up and reeling yourself towards the target feet first for a high impact foot dive. There is very basic melee combat basically press button to make spencer flail his arms, but its useful up close. As you play you unlock and refine your combat skills and unlock different gun weapons and it just feels like you've got plenty of options to engage in combat and ofc swing through the levels. Highly recommended, it reminds me of the 360 era of capcom where they were putting out really fun third person action games like re5 and dr2. This game gets a steep sale so I'd recommend waiting on that but otherwise I'd say its a good purchase

Coming from Marvel Vs Capcom 3 I was always told that Spencer, the protagonist of this game, was from a bad game called Bionic Commando, and this winter I decided to find out if that was true or not. For $3 on a winter sale I had a blast of a weekend with this game. It's a lot better than I thought it was with a fun story with some nice twists. The gameplay is pretty good too. Grappling around feels pretty good and it flows in combat nicely. The game has also graphically aged pretty well too, though, I'm not picky about how a game looks. Overall for $3 it's a nice small experience that'll run you around 7 hours to beat if you're only looking to do the story.

the swinging grapple physics feel good an its very fun to swing through the air and shoot a bazooka at the same time

As an old school gamer, i really loved Bionic commando and still have my old ps3 game disk. Just purchased Bionic commando and finally finished it. But the ending, for f-sake, great way to completly destroy the entire game!!! Leaving us on that f-ing cliffhanger of an ending and the last message make no sens at all. Sadly, they only released reArmed 1 on steam and never ported rearmed 2. Still, pretty awsome game and the only replay value of the game, would be to collect every collectible you can fin din the game. really wish they would have ended the game in another way or made a true ending if you managed to finish the game on the hardest difficulty.

Spider-man From Different Dimension Awesome game to play, simple straight forward linear game play with nice fights and story. Game ends with cliffhanger but unfortunately no sequel was made, I wish this game had sequel. Need more of these types of linear single player story mode games.
