In a podcast interview this week, Capcom revealed that they have included Xbox Live's Major Nelson in the Xbox 360 version of Bionic Commando: Rearmed. He can be found in one of the Challenge Stages. Gamers who get to the stage will be able to view an 8-bit version of Major as well as a special message from him. The image below is not of Major Nelson. It's some other important historical figure.
The Humble Capcom Heroic Collection Bundle just launched recently. It has ten items including Monster Hunter Rise, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection, and more.
I took advantage of the $1 deal for lost planet 3, strider, bionic commando and mega man. 3 of them run great on my steam deck. bionic commando sadly does not.
ive left humble bundle long time ago the pricimng is now off as well as game collection. humble monthly used to be excellent but thasts also downhill
"On this week's episode of The 1099 Podcast, the composer at 10 Chambers, former audio director at Starbreeze, and man behind the sound design in favorites like Payday 2, Bionic Commando Rearmed, and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Simon Viklund, joins host Josiah Renaudin to explain how sound gets into games. Simon details what it's like creating both music and sounds for major video games, how aspiring designers can break into the industry, whether or not you have to capture all of your own original sounds, and what makes upcoming co-op shooter GTFO special."
Neil writes: "Whilst many out there will be hotly anticipating jumping on a plane and heading off for a summer break, even more will just be happy to kick back with a controller in hand, seeing out the summer with some hot and sweaty gaming sessions. And what better way to enjoy the delights of the summer sun than by picking up a new game or two at discounted prices.
Well, that's exactly what the Xbox Live Deals With Gold sale brings and yet again we are being treated to another batch of discounted Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles for the next week or so. Want to check out the full list of bargains available in the Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 17th-23rd July 2018?"
Does Capcom and MS really think gamers would enjoy this? Major Nelson is a bit of a corp shill that has lost most of his "gamer cred" awhile ago. He is more like a Ryan Seacrest of XBL now and his podcasts are more stroking his own ego than any good info.
Thanks for the heads up and even more reason to not own this game besides the fact it being inferior to the PS3 version. Maybe if Capcom spent more time adding the extra challenges and refining the controls to make up for the 360's D-pad instead of sticking Major dipsh!t in the game it would of been better.
Guess I'm going to buy the XBL version instead. /sarcasm
BTW the special Major Nelson message is "Don't forget to buy our special Bionic Commando theme for just 100 ms points."
OMG WHY DID I BUY THE PSN VERSION THAT DOESN"T HAVE MAJOR NELSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:O Didnt know the PS3 version had exclusive challenge(s)! I was already sold 'cause of the superior D pad.
and yeah, who is this Major Nelson?

I don't know why he would be included in the game. I played through the PS3 version of the game over the weekend. The game is great, I especially enjoyed the music. The PS3 D-pad is the only way to go on this game.
