The wonders of social networking employed as a marketing tool, namely Capcom’s Twitter feed, bring news on the progress they are making towards getting the forthcoming patch to the better selling of the two recent Bionic Commando games released.
BC Rearmed patch update: US PS3 approved, Euro in next few days. 360 resubmits tomorrow. Patch may be live in 7 to 10 days. Trophies soon!
The patch adjusts the ‘Easy’ and ‘Normal’ difficulty levels of the game to make them easier. That has included giving the player unlimited lives, respawning on solid ground and not falling to your death if you swing into a wall. Which all sounds reasonable enough. Affecting all difficulty levels is a fix to one of the games weapons, the Super Joe Machine Gun, giving it a bigger clip and higher damage dealing capability. Obviously only the PS3 version gets the trophies as an added bonus.
