don't think i'll bother.
Unlike many Western shooters, Vanquish is all about quick moving visuals. Vanquish makes you think less about your strategy and environment, as it does make you think about how fast can you kill everything. I enjoy crazyness like that, as I loved Platinum's previous game Bayonetta, but this is a little overwhelming. I felt the pacing was so bad, that I was missing all of the parts that made the game really awesome. The demo starts with a room full of robots to kill and all I did was "slide" around and shoot everything in the face. Then I jumped into a robot and destroyed anything left. I cleared the room in about five minutes.

The next section had a robot boss battle, which was rather boring. Shoot out his arms, legs, head and then shoot the core. I can't tell you how many times I've done that over the last decade. Then the demo was over.

From what I have played, Vanquish seems pretty standard. It has tons of potential, but not quite a triple A title. I was hoping for something more over the top like Bayonetta, but as a 3rd person shooter. The soldiers around you big burly men that say the same stupid things as a typical war game. It feels that in trying hard to make a Japanese Gears of War, Platinum did not put the love into making a game that really shines amount the others of its kind. Vanquish is missing any kind of magic or individuality.

I hope the demo just happens to showcase the least interesting part of the game.

The Demo is out on XBL, so you should at least try it out- I liked it ok, but it seems to be missing something...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcVRDusc-fY from the demo.

Best shooter I have ever seen interms of gameplay!
I just love Japanese take on sci-fi TPS, they always exagerate which I love.

45 seconds in that video, the super punch is jawdropping badass and those visual effects showing up :D

Why dont you appreciate good games when its given to you ;)

But seriously, there is nothing wrong with the shooting gameplay at all, they love to exagerate.
Its like saying Max Payne was wrong because normal people dont jump in the air and shoot and then glide on the floor and keep shooting.

Its all part of a stylish approach, much better than typical Gears of War, Uncharted stuff we are getting, its a nice twist to a famous genre.

But replayvalue.
It is a shooter with SP only and its not a RPG, so I wonder what the replayvalue will be like. There has to be something extras for us to go back in there for variety. Thats why I need to see more or know what kind of replayvalue it has.

I'm not sayin' it's too fast(I really don't think it's terribly fast, not like the UT series. Only thing that's really fast is the boost)- I'm saying it doesn't flow as well as I expected. The AI(in the demo at least) is just fodder. I find that extremely annoying for an SP only game. It was kinda fun, but it didn't give me a lap dance or anything...

Played the demo, I really liked it.

Sure gliding all over the place, doing melee, seeing Sam doing cool acrobatic moves was fine, but they are limited and I was doing more cover to cover by gliding and shooting than anything else.

I will definitely play the demo alot more maybe my final conclusion will change, but so I dont think I will buy it day 1 or at all.

My plan was waiting for Raptor to buy the game and then he can tell me what type of bonus content there is for replayvalue.

Uncharted was a shooter and was SP only, but that game had great bonus content like mirrored levels, play any main character for fun, unlimited ammo, realistic shooting like 1-3 shot kills...etc.
I expect something cool like that for Vanquish.

The controls was fine, aiming took a bit to learn, wasent "tight", maybe too floaty at times. Animations was fantastic, tons of stuff happening in the background which made it very chaotic and awesome.
Again, I really liked it but maybe if I play the demo more I like it more...it was around 2-3 in the morning LOL

I think pretty much every aspect of the gameplay worked really well. Boosting came naturally, aiming felt good and the game just flowed fairly well. But it's with little doubt a lot like the stop n' pop gears of war style of action, with cover being very important. I think i liked the fact that you didn't have to down the boss a billion times to kill it. Exposing the weak point drained about one third of it's life bar and that's very important imo. Japanese shooters, i'm thinking back to titles like Lost planet, have a tendency to have way too long and tedious boss battles but that's not the case here it seems. Story seems like complete shite, but i wasn't really expecting much in this department, so i'll let it slide!
*pa-dum-pshh!*

Well, the demo sure got me a whole lot more excited for the game anyway :)

I played the demo again, very awesome.

Playing 2-3 in the morning and being tired really effects your judgement which isnt good.

Now I had higher volume, I was rest to really sink into the demo, really awesome stuff.

But one thing I dont like is the fact using melee drains energy, that pisses me off.
I have been sliding a bit to a enemy and then I start to punch them like crazy and it drains the suit energy dry and then I am getting raped from all over the place because I cant move too fast to cover.

All in all, it definitely deliver son the gameplay as I expected, now if only we could know what type of bonus content and modes we get, if its good I will definitely buy it.
I am not a guy who cares about points and leaderboards so I expect something better!

OH MY FREAKIN GOOOOD!!!!

This is it!! This like a shooter made for me,it has everything I ever wanted in a shooter damn!!

First time didn't understand at all the controls,well I did but it took me 35 minutes to finish the first time dying a total of 10 times

Second time was when something just clicked and I started to really kicking ass,jumping from cover to slow motion,dashing all over the place to find better cover,using melee to take down the larger enemies,I took down the freakin boss so badass that I was the whole time!!

God damn this game its beyond badass I really loved it,graphics are awesome with so much stuff going on at all times,the effects are simply amazing going from the explosions to the little ARS suit Sam details everything its awesome IMO.

Mikami did it again!

I won't go nearly as far as to say Best, myself. I did only have time to play it once though. I'll play it again, but the lack of any real AI grates me and makes it less fun to fight. Gears of War feels more intense to me because the enemies are smart enough to use tactics( suppress, flank). Maybe the AI is better in the main game, but right now it seems almost like a glorified shooting gallery, IMO. The just kinda stand there. There is a gameplay vid shown in the News forum that shows Gideon forward of their lines, and one of the guys in the mechs is shooting at him with his personal weapon and not the big gun hes standing on. This kind of game needs to be a flank-fest. That said, it was fun, but pretty mindless, IMO...

I agree with Raptor, IMO this is the best third person shooter I have played.

This is like Appleseed but on steroids.

For a person that loves badass characters doing awesome things like this, Ryu Hayabusa...etc. put that in a shooter and it is golden for me, just awesome considering all we see is typical normal stuff like Uncharted and Gears...I want exageration!

The only thing I hate in this game is that when you use melee combat it will deplete all of your suit energy and if you are close to another enemy they will melee you, badly.
I died a few times in Normal just for trying to pull off melee and some shooting but damn it.

God I want to buy this game.

This game needs suit upgrades, the energy runs out too fast when you do melee.

Where the hell is the demo??

Anyway been watching the demo videos and its no where near the best third person shooter out there, AI looks dumb and the game looks to be very easy?, i like the over the top action, but i really need to play it to be able to get a feel of what its really like?

I have not played Uncharted games but apart from those I played almost all and this its indeed better IMO.

Faster,stylish and more badass than anything out there 3rd person shooter wise.

Maybe you just didnt like it?

I tought the fact that you were a Gears fan you will love it seeing this is like that but faster and more crazy.

Ok, I've played through a couple times now, and I have to revise my statements. I'm going 8/10 to 9/10. Once I got used to it, it was much better. I won't call it the best I've played, but I think it will be up there. The AI is still Shit, but I think it's at the right level for the game and style. Good stuff, and I really like the character models. Now how about some stinkin' multiplayer...

Multiplayer wont work in this game.

Boost, fastpaced, slow motion being a big part of the game, it wont work.
