So I was just going to watch the launch trailer for fable 3 ( which looks decent but nothing to mind blowing) and before the trailer there was a little video on vanquish. This game comes out next week with fallout new vegas and from what I have seen on TODAY ON THE SPOT as well as released video previews it looks pretty fast paced and entertaining. So my question is will this game be a really great hit that no one plays or will it be a bad game no one play it at all?

I don't know but from what I played in the demo, the game kicks ass. It may be a sleeper hit.

Wow I had no idea it was coming out so soon. The demo was great, but the marketing team seems to have dropped the ball.

I didn't enjoy the demo, but I can see with bigger games coming out this month it will be a sleeper.

I got the demo and was very satisfied by the game. It was a bit chaotic for my taste at times, but I really did have a lot of fun. I think I will pick it up when I get through some more games that I have been meaning to play.

Did not like the demo at all. I could tell you many reasons why but it would just sound like a rant. Based on the demo, "sleeper."

True. I didn't really care for Bayonetta's story. The gameplay was a blast.

exactly, Bayonetta is all about gameplay, well this will be too, I dont tend to buy Japanese games for story so much unless its an RPG

I buy them for insanely polished gameplay

it should be a hit full stop have you actually seen what that game is capable of? Gears of War on speed I reckon but people seem more intrested in the 7th Call of Duty outing on this gen console yet people want something new what gives??

I saw the first few trailers thinking it was going to be a great new game. Then saw some gameplay and tried the demo. Not even going to rent it.

I haven't played the demo but from what I've seen on the trailers, it looks like Gears of War gameplay on steroids. Looking foward to it

It felt like Gears of War on amphetamines when I played the demo. I like the use of slow motion and the massive boss fight, yet I'm still on the fence about the game as a whole.

I personally doubt it will sell all that well.

I know I won't be buying it; I didn't like the demo at all.

I like PlatinumGames and I'm planning on getting it eventually but reviews saying it can be beaten in 4-6 hours probably will scare me away from getting it until the price drops. But it probably will get a little lost behind other releases sales-wise

The demo was great. I am getting it. Anyway, 98% of videogame storylines are cheesy as hell, even the ones that people claim are so affecting. Derivative drivel from Hollywood and classic late 19th century and 20th century sci-fi, fantasy novels. You shouldn't ask whether the storyline is good or original in a "story" kind of way, but whether its entertaining and engrossing as a video game device that moves the action and gameplay forward (or backwards(or sideways)).

How's it a sleeper hit, yea it might not have the hype of Fallout NV or CoD BO, but it's still getting some hype.

Like I said a hit no one plays (sleeper) or just a game no one plays at all.

I say sleeper. The demo was bad imo. It felt like a cheap gears knock off. Gunplay just didnt feel good at all. Characters and story seemed awful too.

IGN has a review already. 8.5 out of 10. Go to their website and check it out for what is worth.

GI didn't have shining things to say about it, but it'll probably end up on my "someday list." Problem with that, though, is that every once in a while I play a real gem a year or two after launch, then spend a week or two kicking myself over it(see WET for further info).

Lol? So every game you play has to be easy mode or something? Every boss you face you have to kill it in your first try?

LOL Wet was a pretty fun game. So far the reviews sound good the 6 hour campaign sounds kind of scary I am going to wait and see what gamespot has to say about it as i didn't really like IGN's review to much.

I think selling 2 million units will be a miracle but putting up Bayonetta numbers will be possible.
