[Multiplatform] VANQUISH - the ultimate air guitar knee slide (or SHIT JUST GOT REAL the vidyagaem)

Platinum Games (of Bayonetta, MadWorld and Infinite Space fame) and director Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil, Killer7, God Hand, Devil May Cry) bring you the batshit
insane lovechild of Gears of War, God Hand and P.N.03 about Americans fighting armies of Russian assault robots, in the future, IN SPAAAACE

The demo is out on both Xbox Live and PSN and if you haven't tried them yet stop reading right now.

LOOK AT THIS GLORIOUS KNEE-SLIDING, ROCKET-BOOSTING, TIME SLOWING, PAGE STRETCHING,
FLIP KICKING, DRILL-PUNCHING, CHAIN-SMOKING, ULTRA-COOL MOTHERFUCKER















Go play the demo, then come back, unless you've already had the game ordered like me. You could still play the demo. Again.

Or you can watch something like GT's preview of it while you wait.

Or the Sam Gideon trailer with some sweet gameplay footage amidst the silly story bits.

Anyway, I am looking so forward to this. I was really psyched by the time the first gameplay videos were released, but the demo confirms it to be completely, deliriously glorious.

Oh and the cover is lenticular.



We can see Sega is throwing every bell and whistle into making itself look ridiculous, but do go and buy the game when it's out next month.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Oh god I just realized Sam is voiced by Gideon Emery YES YES

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Why not think it instead as "with many good games coming, I should start with Vanquish since it's only ____ hours long, so I can then move to New Vegas"



For me, the whole length thing is a moot point. If I want to play or own something, I will buy it. I never look at movie lengths when deciding what movie to buy, unless I am trying to avoid watching a 5 hour film when I feel like seeing a 2 hour one. Hardly any game these days actually feels too short, usually you're more likely to feel some game is far too long, or ends right when it should.

I think it's fair to mention the apparent value for money you are getting with some game when discussing it in a review, but letting the game's price affect the score is unforgivable (see the whining reviews for Limbo or ODST's campaign). By that logic most magazines and websites would need to update the game's score each time the game's price goes down, because you're suddenly getting more value for money, which by their logic makes it a "better" game.

HAVE SOME BLURRY AS FUCK PHOTOS ON OUR PIECE OF SHIT OFFICE CAMERA





SAM IS SO FAST HE'S LIKE A BLUR

You could say he can't be..

*shades*

ARSed to stand still.



I am now kinda torn whether I should stop everything and plow through Vanquish as soon as I get home, or continue Demon's Souls as I have like 7 more levels to clear.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
