Vanquish kills Gears of War!!!

[QUOTE="gaming25"]

[QUOTE="Master_ShakeXXX"]

It was dissapointing to put all that work into it only to not get a sticky but oh well. My joy of seeing Vanquish score a 9 far out-weighed the dissapointment.

Not getting it stickied isnt a big deal since this game was only stickied for like half a day. Your thread rocked, it was informative and it had alot of comments/activity, thats all that really matters.

I tried to compile all the info I could, but I could have organised it better and threw some more pictures in there. I think I will just let someone else handle the hype thread for the sequel, if there is one (I hope to god there is). There's alot of talented folks in SW.

Vanquish looks cool, but I think Gears 3 will murk it! (since we're talking about games killing other games :P)

I am enjoying Vanquish more than Geow. It is probably the most unique TPS this gen.

DOes Vanquish have MP?Mkavanaugh77

Nah its single player.

Indeed and these sort of games are always better in single players only IMO.

GeoW>Vanquish.

I really don't see the appeal. Slide n shoot, slide n shoot.

Gears of war is all about co-op. I'm really not interested in another TPS unless it has multiplayer. I've played through too many.

If I wanted a single player shooter I would wait for black ops since it has more variety.

Your criticisms were about it not having a MP, when Vanquish really isnt a MP type of game. And the game isnt repetitve at all (and Kevin V's review supports that), something new happens all the time. And what variety does black ops SP have?

To be fairI don't think there's an exclusive title on the Xbox you dont despise.(Think is dull)

Funny how so many games have copied the gameplay, it set the standard for TPS, it is also one of the best looking games on the 360. You should sell your 360, it seems to be everything you hate in a single console.

I don't hate the console, just some of its games.

and its not the best looking game on the 360. on a technical level it is, but visually it looks horrible.

its not hard to kill gow its a pretty poor game thats overrated for all the goreelbert_b_23

Okay, okay, maybe not a fair comparison, but the following video will make you want to buy this game...

I've seen a few people say they played the demo and thought it was average. Hint: you were playing it wrong. Watch and see how it is meant to be played...

Holycow, it DOES kill Gears of War! Love the designs. Great animation as well. I especially like the little details and movements on the weapon.

how can it kill it if its not even out till next year? and no, it won't kill it because does vanquish even have multiplayer? how would the slow motion work in multiplayer?? i thought vanquish was good and fun but could be better. babybinky

I think you answered your own question to why it doesnt have MP.

FEAR had slow motion in multiplayer.

Haha, killzone 2 was even worse in this aspect, it was either brown and grey, blue and grey, or red and brown, maybe some green now and then. That is hardly good use of colours, me thinks you be biased son.

Pretty similar.

does it look better than gears of war 2 when it first launched? yes

does it look better than it now? no

it took epic like a year and a half to fix that game and turn it into the proper sequel that it always shouldv'e been, but now, its very hard to beat.

Gears 2 is still the same game, they just tried to put some bandaids over the broken MP. Old Gears 2 or new Gears 2 isnt as good as Vanquish imo.

Everything slows down once you use the command in Vanquish, so its pretty different.gaming25

Everything slows down when you use the command in FEAR.

Also, for those who said that Vanquish stolen the TPS mechanics from Gears, you mustve forgot RE4 (same director that did Vanquish) did it before them.

Yes, that's what happens in FEAR. Time slows down for EVERY PLAYER.

[QUOTE="gaming25"] But for the player individuals it would have to slow down for Vanquish.gaming25

Yes, that's what happens in FEAR. Time slows down for EVERY PLAYER.

It slows down at the command of every player..who is on the winning team. Vanquish could do the same.

That sounds like it would be weird for Vanquish considering its fast paced gameplay.

Disagree. I wouldn't care if they sacrificed the time manipulation for multiplayer. The gameplay is so tight anyway and it would be unbelievable fun boosting around and fragging online with awesome weapons and awesome levels. It's a damn shame. Plus I've heard that the SP is way too short like most games this gen. There's no way I'd drop £40 for a 4-5 hour SP.

Well VanQuish definitely made a new unique experience that's really fun to play through. Be it a kinda short one. Had it been twice as long it would've been reviewed 9.5/10 by all reviews.

Doesn't make me want o buy them game. It does remind me of what is wrong with the industry. Too much emphasis on action, not enough on substance. millerlight89

Gears of war is just bad generic shooter

Vanquish is super cool slow motion robot smashing awesomeness!!
