Overview

Bionic Commando makes a grappling arm central to both movement and combat. Finding an anchor point, building a swing and opening fire turns a route through enemy territory into a test of timing and positioning. Representative games: Bionic Commando Rearmed — remake (2008): Rebuilds the 1988 side-scrolling adventure with new visuals and two-player cooperative play. Bionic Commando (2009): Moves the grappling action into a ruined 3D city, where the arm also grabs and throws objects. Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 (2011): Adds jumping and new arm abilities to its side-scrolling swing-and-shoot action. Suitable for: Players fascinated by grappling hooks will find movement worth practising for its own sake. The pleasure comes from spotting a useful ledge and turning a carefully timed swing into a clean approach.
