BC Weekly Field Report: #3Vote Now!

Gearoid Reidy, Thursday 06-19-2008, 06:50:01

We have commandos! And bionics! And some combination of the above! All in this week's Field Report...

What’s that on his arm?

No, it’s not his copious arm hair (said to feel like a “young chick” – interpret that as you will) – our Ben Judd is definitely sporting something serious in the picture to the left. If your powers of imagination fail you so badly that you can’t think of what it might be, stay tuned! The reveal will be coming up shortly. If you think you already know… stay tuned anyway! It’s stupidly awesome.

New Music Announcement Inbound!

Ben Judd chimes in with this post about his second-favorite topic (after himself) – the music:

“We've put the BCR soundtrack out on iTunes and Sumthing Digital and the response was not bad - especially when you think that this is the soundtrack for a game that hasn't even been released yet. Even veteran media man, gaming prophet, and all around nice guy Mark MacDonald told me that he quickly threw his 10 digital dollars down and snapped it up on day 1. Good stuff.

But, we aren't done there. We'll have another hawt music announcement later this week and hopefully it will hit the sweet spot. As always we are listening to the fans and trying to give you what you want.”

Thanks Ben! And before you point it out, yes, we know that “what you want” is a copy of Bionic Commando Rearmed. Bear with us. While you’re waiting, why not…

…Enter Our New Competition!

As eagle-eyed readers may have spotted, we have a new competition up on the front page – and a chance for you to show off just how much you know about all things Bionic Commando (the chicks just love that, I assure you). The answers will take even the most dedicated Bionic Commando fan on a wild tour of this site,

The reward – a t-shirt proclaiming your greatest achievement. Rescuing a small, green clump of pixels named Joe.

Cap-come together, right now, over me

Finally, while this is the only place to come for fans of Bionic Commando, we here at Capcom do also publish some other, lesser-known, minor titles, like Resident Fighter or whatever it’s called. For all of those, we’d like to direct you to the newly-redesigned Capcom Unity, the community site for all things Capcom where, amongst many others, the 5 Capcom fans who will be joining us on next week’s podcast like to hang out.

Click here to go to Capcom Unity

But, don’t forget to come back once you’re done, OK? OK? Hello? Hellooooo?

Woot!

Submitted my entry for the contest. You guys were sneaky with a few! However I hope I caught in time, because I am pretty confident with my answers.

BC Trivia Cool, Music Announcement FTW, BC Forums Still on track?

First and foremost I'd like say thanks for the Trivia and Competition opportunity, hopefully the best man wins the shirts :). I'm also loving the BCR Music and can't wait to play Rearmed, however I'm definitely wondering what's up with the BC Forums? Are they still in the works or are has that idea for the community been disbanded? I'd would definitely like to hear some updates on this, thanks for everything :). Can't wait for BCR and NGBC :D.

Well then put on the Bionic Commando: Rearmed Soundtrack and the pure awesomeness should put him to sleep.

.....

Well I'm not too sure if my child is going to make it now, and I'm not 100% sure that I answered all the questions correctly, but his dying wish that he whimpered into my ear with what could be one of his last breaths was to be buried not in a tuxedo, but in the Bionic Commando T-Shirt.

OH NO HE DIDNT

after looking at that pic above all i could say was
OH HE WENT THERE...
Now either the T-virus capcom puts in ur coffee has cause ur arm to mutate much like William Birkin from resident evil 2 or Ben is equipped to give the most DEVASTATEING BIONIC HIGH FIVES THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN!!!

But in the picture its blacked out... Its like watching soft core porn, you get the idea of something really cool is going on but you cant see the details.

Ben totally just owned Peter Moore's ass in the arm advertising department.

Rearmed and Dangerous

I'm with Santa on that one, I'm dying for Bionic Commando Rearmed. It got so desperate one day that I played the original Bionic Commando with the Rearmed soundtrack playing in the background.

But anyway, nice quiz, had a few head scratchers, but I'm sure I got it all right. Though you really got me on a certain question involving an updated name.

Captain... you have NO IDEA just how cool it is.

It makes me feel like a 5 year old kid, 2 days before Christmas.
