Why Do People Love Vanquish So Much?

@1:25 i wouldn't call this game a collaboration when shinji mikami was one of founder of platinum game when this game was made..

One of the best games last gen. Sequel please, please, please!

The reason I love it is because I am able to vanquish the enemies.

It's simply just good! This goes to show that so many great games under the radar. If people look passed the yearly COD's and other popular but mediocre games they will find games with phenomenal gameplay and/or story. But in the end most gamers are casuals and will go for what's heavily advertised.

this game was beyond its years

Looks like a classic badass! The gameplay looks amazing! Can't tell the same about the storyline since the sci-fi games doesn't deliver as wanted.

Wasn't this game like kind of on-rails or something, or had weird controls? I can't remember exactly, there was something about it right off the bat that I wasn't liking when I played the demo back on 360 years ago.

I think its overrated . It suffers from the same problems all platinum games have . Ridiculus story, characters with wierd hard to place accents, cheese lines etc. It looks great and it is stylish but the game mechanics are getting reperative after a while ( thankfully its preaty short)

great game, focusing on the one thing that truly matters: gameplay!

i still need to beat that last challenge, it's so hard...

This is one of the game which I bought it and didn't get a chance to play because around that time I started playing Oblivion and it took my whole time. Probably play it at some point.

Good game , just far too short which was a shame. Vanquish 2 would have been great though had they decided to do one.

Vanquish combat does get rather samey though after a while probably why it is short.

we love it because it's a fucking great game... why even make a fucking movie about it? few people bought it because it had a shitty release window.

People who love Vanquish love Vanquish because it's perfect and awesome and they love it and people who love it are geniuses.

It would be great if SEGA released this on PS4 and X1. Fanboys like me will buy it again, and it will help the budget push for a true sequel. It's a short (but sweet) game, but just like Metal Gear Rising, I played through it multiple times. Damn, I really want another MGR too, though it probably won't happen, unless it's a stupid pachinko machine. You suck Konami. Love you SEGA and Platinum.

Movie stops playing at around 3:54... I'm starting to wonder why I keep coming back to this site. Mostly habit I suppose.

Bought the game when it came out. It was fun, but not worth the price given that it had no replay value and no multiplayer. The game was refreshing simply in that it was an original IP for once

Cant wait to pick it up on Steam! Its one of those games that I loved the demo, but never got around to buying it.

Who needs it when you have such a terrific game like Overwatch!

Vanquish is a very sega sort of game; a somewhat under-exposed, rough around the edges gem of a game. I feel it belongs to a legacy of classic action games like gunstar heroes and contra
