There has been a post on the PlayStation.Blog, it confirms the release of Bionic Command: Rearmed and Street Fighter Alpha on the US PSN store today. We already knew about Street Fighter Alpha, but the added bonus of BC: Rearmed is great news for the Americans.

Although not for everyone, Bionic Commando was a much adored classic back in its heyday. It was originally released on arcade in 1987, transferring to consoles starting with the NES in 1988, with the most recent addition being in 1999 for the Game Boy Color. Rearmed is based on the NES version of the game.

BC: Rearmed will cost $9.99, not a bad price in my opinion. Street Fighter Alpha will set you back a measly $5.99, again a good price but the game isn’t as good.

The post ends with hints about what the next projects Capcom has for the PSN. This includes the next installment in the Mega Man series, number 9. An extract is available below for your viewing pleasure.

I’ll be back to give you updates on Age of Booty, our strategic pirate party game, and Mega Man 9, the next installation of the classic series in 8-bit glory!
