More people should play Vanquish...

[QUOTE="jessejay420"][QUOTE="Master_ShakeXXX"]

They're identical. So it basically comes down to whichever controller you prefer.

Identical as in the exact ****ing same.

[QUOTE="ShadowsDemon"][QUOTE="TomatoDragonPSN"]Totally agree. Amazing game...but arrrggggg. Challenge 6 for platinum! it's all I need!TomatoDragonPSN

Im thinking about getting Vanquish soon.. Question is should i get it on ps3 or 360?jessejay420

I thought it wqas pretty decent. The suit mechanics were great, but having to fight the giant enemy crab a billion times instead of a new boss got old, and the game glitched on me a few times which was REALLY off putting. So I guess what I am saying is that it was a great concept that needed a little more polish.

Trying to wrap my head around it, yet. The cover shooting directly contradicts the sliding and shooting - but perhaps I just have to play more. There's a lot I like stylistically.skrat_01

Cover is more for you to quickly recover your suits boost ability. It isn't a cover-based shooter and people that play it that way are doing it all wrong. Get your ass to the floor and slide, man. Slide while shooting bullets to the sky. It's a damn dream come true!

Most of the time it's better/more fun to slide around and shoot stuff (you can dodge a lot of stuff just by timing your rolls and slides well), but if you are in danger of dying it's time to hit the cover.

I am so sick of hearing praise about his game here, the graphics sucked, the story sucked , the gamplay was good........... but its the same 15 sec of game play for the whole campaign, which is most games but the story was so cheesy and lame I couldnt be bothered to finish it. I am sick of hearing about his overrated trash there is a reason it is not more popular

Boo hoo

Vanquish >>>>>>>>>> your favorite shooter

Get over it brah

Game is awseome no doubt at all wish it was longer :cry:

[QUOTE="TomatoDragonPSN"][QUOTE="ShadowsDemon"] That's an extremely tough trophy. What some tips? :)ShadowsDemon

In short it's an amazing game. Sure the story sucks and it is short, but the gameplay is just fluid and unlike everything that's ever comne before. I loved the game so much I even decided to go for the platinum trophy and beat Challenge 6.

I don't understand why more people aren't playing it. It's got everything and more you could want from a shooter....what's stopping you?

Just about everyone who has played it will agree with me. :D

Thoughts?

The story was terrible - Cliche, and poorly acted and I question the translation.

.

The weapons were terrible - couldn't upgrade all the guns in one playthrough.

.

The gimmick wasn't well executed - everything was off one bar, move too long no armor, get hit too much can't move, melee takes too much energy and leaves you without armor or mobility.

.

Anyone who thinks vanquish is new and different never went to an arcade.

It's an arcade shooter, when you die you'll feel like you should put a quarter

in.

This game has been made hundreds of times before, it just usually came in a cabinet.

There is a demo. That's the reason more people didn't play it.

Exactly...

That why I didn't buy it, game looked interesting UNTIL I played the demo, lost all interest in it within 15 minutes.

[QUOTE="savebattery"]I have asked multiple times for a simple explanation of what you like about the game and you can't even muster that.foxhound_fox

Mediocre Story

Boring and Unlikable Characters

Short Campaign With No Replayability

RyanShazam

Which can be said about every other shooter released in the west, hell, at least Vanquish has infinitely better gameplay to keep my glued on the screen.

So i don't see any problem, if one would keep that in mind.

I agree. Platinum Games are great.Madworld was meh,but Bayonetta and Vanquish are boss.

I may be alone on this, but I enjoyed the dialog ("Stick some tungsten up this tunnel's ass! This colony ain't gonna walk straight for a while", works for me :lol:!) and the characters. I thought the bad guys plan, explained towards the end, was hilarious in a so bad it's good way. The art-design was cool, with the different robots being the highlight. Some amazing stylish cut-scenes to top it off. In short I enjoyed a lot more than just the stellar gameplay. It's a very entertaining package!Sushiglutton

Nah, you're not, because I actually liked the characters and enjoyed the dialogue too, but I love non-serious cheesiness in video games. Still they're not the reasons why I love Vanquish, it's the badass gameplay. Seeing people hate on it just because of the story and such just makes me lol.

Yeah, I agree, everything definitley looks and feels sleek, which adds to the overall package. It's a very arcadey game, and I think all the design choices follow suit in that regard.

The demo was ok, but not good enough to justify the purchase of the game.
