If you're looking for a slice of science-fiction heaven that injects the gameplay of Gears of War with a crazy dose of speed, then you won't do much better than Vanquish.
Innovador gráficos excelentes, dinámico, inmersivo el traje es una locura juegenlo a pesar de los años sigue siendo excelente. Ojala hagan un remaster o algo
Doubtless the best third-person shooter ever to come out of Japan, Vanquish builds on Western developers' triumphs to push the genre in new, interesting directions, shifting the balance of power, and cementing Shinji Mikami's position as one of the best directors working in videogames today.
Its weird, half-hearted political gestures aside, Vanquish is the kind of video game that reminds you that these are video games. Perhaps more than any quality, video games allow for visceral thrills unfettered by the real-world logistics of physics and general plausibility. Sometimes a game just needs to look cool and make you feel like a space-age badass, and Vanquish accomplishes both with vigor.
Vanquish is a tepid and tedious game that simply doesn't deserve your cash during a period chock full of far superior releases. And I never thought I'd have to say that about a Platinum game.
This game is fast paced and incredibly fun. But the art direction is so bland and lifeless. It never changes from the boring grey color palette. The main character and cast is extremely generic. None of the bosses were very memorable either. Except the last. The gunplay and movement are enough to make this a good way to spend 5-7 hours though. I highly recommend.
Vanquish
don’t believe the hype
Vanquish is a 7 hour long 3rd person shooter where you play as agent Sam with a sick augmented reaction suit.
Russia destroys San Francisco with a solar beam and demands the United States surrenders before they do the same to New York and you set out to stop this.
Before you do play this game, I need to bring you back down to reality, because this is not some hidden gem classic that everyone on the internet makes it out to be…
Don’t get me wrong… Vanquish is a really fun game...
The shooting feels great, you can slide around on the ground for slow motion shots or just move around maps faster…
And when you take too much damage the game will go into slow motion allowing you to find cover or have a better shot at taking out the enemy before you die
Which makes for some pretty epic feeling gun play…
And the best part of this game is the guns and their upgrades…
There’s a huge variety of weapons here to find what you like best...
You can carry up to 3 weapons at a time plus grenades, and enemies will randomly drop upgrades that you can assigned to your favorite weapon to increase its stats instantly..
The game doesn’t slow you down my making you go into some skill tree, no... You pick up an upgrade with your equipped gun and you’ve got an upgraded gun right then and there...
And even better if you pick a duplicate while your ammo on a certain gun is still full... you also instantly get an upgrade for that weapon…
This system had my actively switching guns and holding out on more rare weapons just incase I could upgrade it on the fly…
upgrading all of the guns in the game while still making sure you have the ammo to get the job done is a meta game itself…
But the greatness ends there..
Because the rest of the game is bland and repetitive…
The story is hard to follow,
the characters are uninteresting
There are no epic moments here...
There are annoying one hit instakill bosses that will have you replaying the same fight over and over…
every level looks and feels pretty identical...
a lot of grey…
no colors here which bores me…
just a bunch of repeat killing the same enemies bosses and mini bosses over and over until the credits roll…
I had a bit of fun with vanquish...
But the expectations of the internet sorta ruined this experience for me
I don’t know what everyone sees in this game...
It’s a good game… but not beyond just good
I give Vanquish a 7/10
Well I suppose I deserved it. This was one of those games people buy because they wanna look hardcore on a game forum. The Japanese niche title like Godhand. And like Godhand this game **** too. It is an obvious Gears of War rip off. The pluses are a great frame rate, fluid and fast combat, a slide that is useless, and a pretty environment. The bad is that environment is the only one on the game, the combat is boring, the bosses are all "shoot the orange spot on the _____" and the story is barely passable. Another thing is these lame Japanese games with these characters that are over the top. Its cheesy and awful and not in a good way. Also characters that smoke are not cool. Snake could not be cool so this pansy isn't gonna be cool either. There is a reason this was a $20 bargain bin game a month after it released. Mikami has really lost his touch as of late. This game just had no reason to exist. Sega wants to know why they are broke. Games like this Sega. Games like this. After the great Bayonetta, I expected more from Platinum Games.
SummaryDirected by Shinji Mikami, VANQUISH is a sci-fi shooter of epic proportions with a fast, fluid and frenetic combat system, and an engaging and immersive storyline. Players take the role of Sam, a government agent kitted out with a futuristic battle suit, in a near future world where nations war over the planet's remaining energy resource...
