I think it's great that Mike Patton is doing voice work on all these games lately. The guy is a musical genius, and everything he does is interesting!

This series would've been great for the DS.

As the only guy with an obscure bionic commando avatar, I think I should be able to meet Patton. That's just my two cents.

Epic mon, truly Epic.

Now all we need is a game with fish out of water flopping sequence.

Is it just me, or does this entire thing just seem to be some attempt to make a super "edgy" and "hip" version of an old NES classic?

@Kuraudo: I think its an updated version of the engine Grin used for the GRAWs. Which is their own engine if im not mistaking.

He did a good job at The Darkness. I wonder why he's doing all this voicework?

That makes it even worse. Shinobi scarf ANY day over dreads!

Besides that, Spiderman swings pretty good without dreads.

I wasn't a big Faith No More fan, and won't claim to be a big Mike Patton fan... but his work in The Darkness was pretty good.

shame he's still listed as the former lead singer of Faith no More instead of the other amazing work he's done (Fantamos, Mr Bungle, solo work, etc)

@AcerBandit: yes it has been.since monday.

@Mit: the hairdo is needed to give playersa hint on what direction they are swinging in.its either they do the hair or a giant shinobi style scarf.the dev explained it in the gamespot vids

Steel_Pelican — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 08:49:48 MDT

I loves me some Mike Patton (King for a Day, Fool for a Lifetime FTW), but it'll take more than that to make me want to buy a game with such a piss-poor lead character.

@Yukito: Yes and no. He was excellent in The Darkness, and did some on-screen acting in an indie film called Firecracker ([www.imdb.com]), and played 2 roles. One of the performances was excellent, the other one was pretty lame.

@Jakey2.0: That was MP? Splendid.

@Mit: Well, back on the Game Boy, his name was Rad Spencer.

Rad vs. Nathan? You decide.

He was great as the voice of the Darkness in err The Darkness.

Lets hope they pinch a few of his songs for the soundtrack too.

Jakey2.0 — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 08:29:20 MDT

He gave his "voice" to something in Portal. I won't say what exactly, as it would be spoilerific for those that haven't played/finished Portal yet.

The screens on the official site look awesome. Is this the UE3 game Capcom have been working on?

Faith No More's Patton to Voice Bionic Commando

Mit — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 08:15:29 MDT

His name is Nathan Spencer? Could he be any more generic? :\

Lose the hot dog arm, the hairdo, and the name.

I think these guys are great Bionic Commando fans and will make the gameplay pretty true to the original, but I don't think they're the best story/character designers...

And is this Capcom's only megaton announcement? Because I was hoping for something a bit more exciting. >_>
