Joystiq: It might be tempting to believe that the unprecedented addition of a jump button is the defining feature of Bionic Commando Rearmed 2. Having completed the game, I can assure you that jumping neither makes nor breaks Rearmed 2 at all. In fact, given all the hoopla surrounding Nathan "Rad" Spencer's newfound ability to spring himself up through muscular effort, it's ironic that Rearmed 2 consistently falls short of its predecessor.

After today’s leak, Microsoft just confirmed via Xbox Live Director of Programming Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb that a bunch of new games are going to be compatible starting today with Xbox One’s backward compatibility feature.
PS Blog:
The PlayStation Plus team is excited to present your next batch of games, available for download on 3rd of May.
First up is tongue-in-cheek dictator sim Tropico 5 – a fully-fledged city-building game set on a fictional island nation. Stepping into the boots of virtual dictator, El Presidente, you’ll guide and direct the everyday life of your beloved Tropicans. Farm llamas, build textiles plants, and occasionally concern yourself with the well-being of your residents, while secretly funneling money to your Swiss Bank Account. Tropico 5 also has four-player online multiplayer where you can battle it out with other would-be dictators online.

My last pay check was $9500 working 12 hours a week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 15k for months now and she works about 20 hours a week. I can't believe how easy it was once I tried it out. This is what I do... www.earnmore9.com
Same here. The car racing one isn't bad either, though I'm not a fan of racing games (I've been trying to get into new stuff, though). Overall, I only own one of the game, so not so bad. And, 3 games on PS4 this month.
I might give Tropico a go since it's free. Perssonally I'm most excited for TTR World Tour. Been waiting for it since its announcement. Loved the 1st one on Android and Vita and now we are getting it free on PS4! AWESOME!
It's my understanding that since Q2 last year, U.S. and Europe will have the same PS+ offerings each month.
Oh... bad
GASP! whats this?!!? a sequel thats worst than its predecessor???
So my negative feelings towards this thing are shared? Being verified?
Shame actually.
Man, according to them, it seems as if everything that made Rearmed challenging has been diluted for the sequel. If this is so, then it's a shame that Capcom had to give in to those complaining about how difficult the first game was. Gaming is really becoming soft nowadays.
