Bionic Commando (Hitler no Fukkatsu: Top Secret in Japan) is a 1988 action-adventure game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). It was based on the 1987 arcade game.
In the game, the player has to explore each stage and access the necessary equipment to progress. The protagonist is Ladd Spencer, a commando equipped with a bionic arm featuring a grappling gun, allowing him to pull himself forward or swing from the ceiling. The series is one of few instances of a platform game in which the player cannot jump (too bad). To cross gaps or climb ledges, the hero must use his bionic arm.

This game can be pretty frustrating at first, but when you get the hang of it, you'll learn to enjoy the game more and more! That reminds me, I have the Capcom Classics Collection for the Xbox so I should get myself playing this game soon!
