Even though the essence of the game doesn't change, there are several wrinkles to playing co-op. Nothing changes at the core - it's the same content, just with two people swinging about with bionic arms. Two-player co-op enables gamers to team up through the entire Rearmed story. Even though it means you have to be in close physical contact with your friend to play it. Boo hoo, wipe your tears and let's get on to the good stuff. That means you won't be enjoying four-player skirmishes online, nor will you be able to team up with a buddy across the world for cooperative play. JLet's get the bad news out of the way - Bionic Commando Rearmed is an offline only game. It was too late into development to add trophy support at this time, however, Ben assures me that well have this feature for BCR in the near future!ĭoes adding a second player make it twice as hard or half as easy? 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. The classic 2D side-scrolling graphics really fit with the PSP and just make the PSN version all the more cooler. This one wasnt 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 (youll know when you see it). Also, Rearmed is one of the only PSN games to feature Remote Play support. 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. To kick off this edition, wed like to mention some of the PSN specific content that you can expect for Rearmed. Dont worry, I promise there will not be an excess of swinger jokes. The folks here at the PlayStation.Blog have been kind enough to give us some space to strut our Bionic stuff.

Welcome to the first installment of our weekly Bionic Commando: Rearmed column.
