Capcom is aiming at May for its remake of the NES shooter Bionic Commando.

The publisher aired its plans to videogaming247 at GDC, tentatively promising a simultaneous launch on Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and PC.

Bionic Commando tells the story of a strange man with a mechanical arm that has a grappling hook in it. He never gets past security in airports but he can swing around computer games like Spider-Man. Shoots guns, too, and throws people around with his grappler.

Bionic Commando: Rearmed will have 2D gameplay in 3D environments, and apparently looks quite smart.

It's a clever way to get the word out about its proper 'next-gen' Bionic Commando game, too.
