: Capcom Digital Day '08 - New Commando 3 impressions

Curse all this news, it's very hard to keep up!

Gamespot have got new impressions of Commando 3 from Capcom's Digital Day:

The game started with our squad being dropped off on a string of small islands that quickly revealed themselves as being under enemy control. It wasn't long before we found ourselves under fire from all directions. The game's simple controls made fighting back a breeze. The right analog stick was used to fire our guns, while pulling the right trigger would toss a grenade. The longer you hold the trigger, the further your grenade will go.

This made it much easier to take out soldiers hiding behind sandbags as well as to destroy vehicles. When the going got really tough, one of us would hit the left trigger to unleash an m-crash--an attack that, after a quick animated scene with the soldier who activated it, cleared all the enemies right off the screen.
It's sounding very nice - though I'm a bit worried with the lack of media push for the game compared to Bionic Commando and Street Fighter II HD - lets hope it starts getting more publicity.

Plus, new images! Check them out here!
