That dashing mustache right there is Ben Judd. Ben Judd is the producer of the upcoming Bionic Commando re-imagining. The game's official site has the first podcast up. They're still finding their feet, and Judd talks about what it's like being a foreigner working in the Japanese game industry and how difficult it was to create Bionic Commando swingy-swingy in 3D:
People want to know it's their skill that gets them place to place. We needed to add a layer of skill on that very visceral swing mechanic.
So the game will offer players freedom in the swingy-swingy. Rad! Judd sought advice from former Capcom producer and Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami, who said that remaking BC was harder than creating original Resident Evil. It's an interesting listen.
