About Bionic Commando Rearmed 2<\/strong><\/p>\n Nathan “Radd” Spencer is back for some more 2.5D platform action in Bionic Commando Rearmed 2. This game is not to be confused with Capcom’s 2009 Bionic Commando reboot which saw Nathan having his first 3D outing.<\/p>\n The first Rearmed game, released in 2008, was a digital download only title, available via Xbox LIVE and PSN. It was positively received by critics and gamers alike, currently sitting with 85\/100 and 87\/100 on Metacritic for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 respectively. Whilst Rearmed 1 was a remake of the original 1988 NES Bionic Commando, Rearmed 2 is an original story occurring before the events of 2009’s Bionic Commando.<\/p>\n The plot goes that General Sabio, a dictator from the Papagayan Islands, is up to mischief and the safety of the world hangs in the balance. Sabio plans to launch a missile directly at the FSA – Spencer’s organisation. Colonel Buebaker was sent in to stop Sabio but has since gone missing, so it’s up to Spencer to save the Colonel and stop the manical Sabio.<\/p>\n Take a closer look at Bionic Commando Rearmed 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n
