Am keeping an eye on this one. Loved the origional, was looking for the 'Re-armed' remake and stumbled upon these.
Don't know about release but its next year for sure.




As long as I can swing, I'll be grinning. -There's enough Spidey engines they can pinch I'm sure.
Big bosses too please- plenty of.

Anyone played the 2D remake?

looks pretty sick but waaay past the capability of my 8600

dude aslong as you have a half decent cpu it should easily run seeing as a 8600gt is what the reccomend to play crysis on half decent graphics

Funny, I stumbled upon that title the same way.

Also as a fan of the NES version, the trailer looks awesome though I might need a slight pc upgrade to play it. And yes, I enjoyed playing the "Re-armed" remake a lot. It was pretty challenging on medium difficulty and on hard I couldn't even pass the first stage. Oh well, might give it a decent try someday but I just didn't have the right mood (the famous "bash your head to the wall" -mood) at the time.

Some Multiplayer footage... interesting to say the least!

I really must reccomend Re-armed to everyone with a penchant for Side-scrolling shooters. In fact I'd reccomend it to everyone for the price of £10 or whatever it cost ($16 for me I think).

Really clever use of 3D for a 2D environment and some bigass bosses! One warning though- it is HARD! Even I had to lower myself to the easy setting!
If anyone here completes all those bloody challenge rooms I will give them a prize!

I'm going to echo the comments on youtube and say it looks like a post apocalyptic Spiderman.
Not necessarily a bad thing.

Spooky thing I just noticed when re-installing Re-armed is that it installs PhysX support!

I guess it has, er, ragdolls....

MUST reccomend Re-armed to everyone. Best £10 I've spent in a long time... One of those time eating games of olde where you dont realise just how many attempts you've made at a level and it's long past bedtime.

Last 3 levels to do for me!
Oh
and you start to get FLY with that arm... Stick with it Raika!

but like I said- anyone with photographic evidence of completing ALL of the challenge rooms will get a non-descript prize!

I have managed to beat most of the challenges, like somewhat a page of those that I haven't finished at all (not including those single ones that you can unlock by finding secret places), but the remaining ones are impossible. The game itself wasn't that hard on medium, except the last stage where I recommend getting a few extra lives before heading into, especially the platforming sequence somewhere midstage can be a bitch.

In some of the remaining challenges I don't even have a clue how to pass the first spikes, others require perfect execution of consecutive drops mid-swing and even one is hard to get timed right sometimes etc. Btw, there's even somekinda "super star"-rating after the 5 stars in those challenges, can only imagine my frustration when I thought I achieved something by completing many of the challenges with 5 stars and then managing to beat one with the even better ranking. Reminded me of trackmania and it's author medal -rank after gold.

Oh well, atleast once you can't blame a game for being too easy.
