Definitely looking forward to picking up Vanquish.
I died twice during the demo, but both times happened at the very beginning. That aerial fire comes down and sends a car or something flying, and it's instant death if it touches you. I didn't get a good look at what happened the first time, and the second time I was standing right next to it when it got hit. I found it odd how ineffective the giant spider robot was compared to a stray car. The boss didn't even seem to target me as I walked around by its feet, slowly kicking open weapon crates for ammo. It didn't care about my squad either, who all huddled up in the same corner with their backs turned to the boss.
That said, I only had two issues with the demo. First, the punching. Enemies would go down with a single punch, yet he insisted on finishing the combo and sending the suit into recharge mode. Second, recharge mode takes way too long. Hopefully there are upgrades that lessen it a bit, or at least make your suit last longer before having to recharge.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
