Bionic Commando - hands-on
We swing through several levels of reborn NES classic

At first glance, it looks a lot like every other prettied-up, current-gen, third-person action game out there, but there's a lot of potential here, and not all of it is in » Read Full Bionic Commando (Next-Gen) preview
