Vanquish

[Alpha Six]

Wow. I'm very suprised anyone took to this game. The demo didn't really hold my attention. Just felt like another shoot 'em up that didn't live up to the hype. I personally wasn't a fan of the control scheme, that's what made it a no-go for me. Now that I see the campaign is short and there's no multiplayer. definately not buying.

Way to not get adjusted to the controls. Once you get used to them (it doesn't take long) it plays a lot better than pretty much every 3PS on the market.

I actually ranted about this somewhere a while ago-- Vanquish is coded better and has better pacing than pretty much ANY 3PS you can think of. Platinum Games knows how to code a solid ANYTHING. Another thing that you need to understand is that Vanquish isn't about COVER COVER COVER like other shooters-- you're supposed to be on the move as much as possible. It's not just a shooting game, it's also an intense action game.

Ignorance is bliss.
