Alktrio3 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 like it says, is it worth buying? how is the game play and what games would you liken it too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shigurui Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Definitely buy if you want to do multiple playthroughs, beat your Hi-Scores etc. If you only plan on one playthrough then rent as it's pretty short but regardless of it's length it's an awesome game. Gameplay is a little like Gears (on speed!) with it's cover system and jump/roll evasion moves but it's different enough to feel fresh. Check the demo, it's a decent enough portion of the game to try the gameplay and help make your mind up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reinachii Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 must play! bayonetta meets gears! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seven ICARUS Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 It's a must-buy if you like sweet action games! It is very over the top and so cheesy it drips of melted cheese. The controls are very tight and responsive. The gameplay is simply amazing, there is very little downtime just lots of shooting and stuff going explodey all the time. Why not try the demo?

luciano666 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 On hard difficult it's a little be frustrating but It's one of the best game out in the last weeks!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAI JASON Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 It's like Probotector/Contra from the 90's in 3D. I love it realy! You don't have time to breath, it's a crazy trip on drugs in a lamborghini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barad Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Yepp its worth buying, fun and fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgfanatic1 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 The gameplay looks great, but I don't know if I wanna spend $60 on something that only takes like 8 hours to beat. And from what I've heard, the challenges aren't enjoyable. And theres no game rental places by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spackhead Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Its a brilliant game thats a very tough challenge to beat on hard (well for me anyway ) My only slight niggle is the fact that a lot of missions have a specific quest for an ach, and if you miss it and want to go back after beating the game via mission select, then all your weapon upgrades are gone. Apart from that it rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoffer Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I ended up buying it when Amazon had their buy 2, get 1 free deal. Now that I've beat it and got all the achievements I'm going to get, I realize it would have been a good rental. Maybe not a 2 day rental, but definitely a Gamefly rental. Don't get me wrong, this is a great game. I'm just done with it. I'll be putting it for sale on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osbjorn Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I don't If I would recommend buying this(because I beat it the day I got it and got the 1000 three days later), but I do want Platinum to be supported and to make many more great games so yes please buy it.

natureismassive Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) nah, i was so looking forward to this game and now i play it "regularly" once every month. quite disappointing - no storyline, and very very very very repetitive gameplay. bayonetta was quite the same. sorry these games look so good but then they just fail in every possible way.

French_Kid Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 played the demo two days ago and was impressed...looked fun...but will probably wait til its lower in price...i still have a few games on my shelf that need playing that ive bought a while ago...plus AC:B at xmas. but very fun for the short while i played until i died lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriRock Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Absolutely. I'm glad I chose this over MoH and Black Ops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaydude Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Well I got it half price in an online sale recently, so the short length of the game wasn't an issue for me. The game itself is fun as hell, kinda reminds me of old-school arcade games but with current gen graphics and gameplay mechanics. If you can pick it up for less than full price I say go for it!

THC BLUNTED Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Now the game is under $10 it is well worth picking up. It is a really fun game that is very fast paced. The campaign may be a little short but you will have a blast all the way through with no standing around. The controls are excellent, it plays similar to a gears of war but way more fast paced and futuristic. The game has a cheesy story but odds are you will be flying through kicking so much ass you wont really care. Hard mode is pretty challenging but nothing too crazy. The tactical challenges on the other hand can be a bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty130 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Excellent thread revival! OT: Vanquish is very much worth a purchase, but can only really be enjoyed on Hard mode. First playthrough could be considered training. Would make a great GwG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First playthrough could be considered training. Would make a great GwG. Yeah the game is way more intense playing on hard. I have yet to conquer the tactical challenges but I am working on them! I hope someday they make a sequel because the game really deserves one. Also, imagine this game with a multiplayer. It might be a little too fast paced at that point but it still makes me wonder what it would be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a shame that great quality games like this get overlooked but buggy, glitchy broken pieces of crap get center stage. Vanquish was refreshing! Platinum games almost perfected the controls and there wasnt any glitches or annoyances to deal with. I think most developers needs to take a page out of their book because this is how games are made right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though the development team behind Vanquish are not just extremely dedicated, but have a lot of experience. Unfortunately, I think publishers push developers to release their games earlier than they'd like. Like Battlefield 4, everyone hates on Dice, but I'm sure it's EA saying, "no, it's ready to sell NOW!" Anywho, as much as I'd like a sequel.. http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0kaz8a55L1qdu2c4.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
