Bionic Commando was released by Capcom in December 1988 for the NES. The unique thing about this game is
that your character cannot jump. Instead, you are equipped with a grappling arm that allows
you to swing around like Spider Man! Another interesting thing about this game is that it
somehow slipped some language/violent content past Nintendo's "Quality Assurance" people.

I finally captured my Bionic Commando speed run! This game is one of my favorites for the NES,
and I even created a site for it many years ago (
Bionic
Commando HQ). I did this run several months ago, but I never captured it because at the
time I was discouraged by the deluge of faked emulator videos. Anyway, this run was played by
Twin Galaxies rules which means that the START+A+B level exit is not used. It finishes in 18:23
which is a very good time. I may be biased, but I highly recommend this one!
