Bionic Commando is the name of several video games, the first being an arcade game released by Capcom in 1987.
It was later released for several home computers (ported by Software Creations and published by Go!). Perhaps the most well-known version was released for the Nintendo Entertainment System by Capcom itself. The game has also appeared on the Game Boy and Game Boy Color, these two games being more closely related to the NES version than the arcade version. The main character, Radd (or Ladd) Spencer, is a commando with a bionic arm which can grab onto surfaces, allowing him to pull himself forward, or swing from the ceiling. The game is notable for being one of few platform games in which the player cannot jump. To cross gaps, the hero must swing like Tarzan on a vine.
