Capcom Announces Bionic Commando Rearmed

Bionic Commando was one of my favorite games back on the NES so news that a remake was in progress made my day. Capcom announced today that they were also remaking the classic 8-bit version of the game for Xbox LIVE Arcade and the Playstation Network. The remade version of the game is set to release sometime this spring.

Images included with the press release look pretty sweet and will be more than enough to hold me over until the next gen version of the game drops later this year. Hit the jump to see the gallery and read the full press release.
