Games Released in the United States: Nintendo Wii: The following list covers all of the game software we know to be available - across all platforms and regions - for the week ending February 5th, 2011. This week brings Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in North America, while the UK gets an early look at Mario Sports Mix.
To cross gaps or climb ledges, the hero must use his bionic arm.Gamasutra's regular round-up of worldwide video game releases, "Release This!", takes a look at every game title we know to be shipping to stores this week, in a custom compiled list.
As such, the series is one of few instances of a platform game in which the player cannot jump. The protagonist is Ladd Spencer, a commando equipped with a bionic arm featuring a grappling gun, allowing the protagonist to pull himself forward or swing from the ceiling. In the game, the player has to explore each stage and obtain the necessary equipment to progress. In addition to graphical changes, the difficulty of the game was rebalanced and some of the areas were made less difficult. The Nazis were referred to as the "Badds" (though the back-story in the American version's manual referred to them as the "Nazz"), the Imperial Army's Swastika insignia was changed into a new one resembling an eagle, and the leader of the villains, originally called Weizmann in the Japanese version, was renamed Killt. For the release of the international version of the game, all references to Nazism in text and imagery were removed. The plot of the original Japanese release revolved around an attempt on the part of neo-Nazis to revive Hitler.
