This thread won't be be walking straight for a while.

Post by: Xessive on Tuesday, November 09, 2010, 10:39:46 AM: I played the demo and I thought it was pretty sweet. Definitely has the 'cool' moments down!

I'm tempted to get the game but I'm all booked up with Castlevania and CoD: Black Ops. I'll just wait till it drops in price.

Post by: TheOtherBelmont on Tuesday, November 09, 2010, 11:37:00 AM: I've been wanting to grab this too, just trying to save money right now and get through some of my backlog before I make any more purchases.

Post by: scottws on Tuesday, November 09, 2010, 11:46:15 AM: I guess this is proof that I am far out of touch with gaming... I've never heard of this game.

Post by: Cobra951 on Tuesday, November 09, 2010, 12:24:18 PM: I played the demo, and could not complete it after a few tries. Good demo; it tells me the game is for better players than me. It is quite intense and very well done.

Post by: W7RE on Tuesday, November 09, 2010, 01:31:19 PM: Played the demo and didn't like it much. Played it again later and really liked it. I guess I had to go into it expecting weird Japanese "shoot the weak spot, shit flying everywhere" game. I really want it now.

I've heard it's 4-6 hours long with no multiplayer so I'm waiting for a price drop.

Post by: Quemaqua on Tuesday, November 09, 2010, 07:53:59 PM: I never heard of this either, but holy good lord did that review make me want to play it.
Title: Re: We don't have a thread about Vanquish
Post by: beo on Friday, November 12, 2010, 05:21:43 AM: yeah, played the demo a little while ago and thought it was pretty great. unfortunately there's loads of great games out at the moment and i'm a bit low on free time, so it will have to wait. i'll almost certainly get this one once the price drops though.

Post by: Quemaqua on Friday, November 12, 2010, 08:47:27 AM: Picked it up. It's fucking awesome.

Post by: ScaryTooth on Sunday, January 16, 2011, 07:48:07 AM: I think I might go buy this tonight. $40 at best buy. hmmm.
Title: Re: We don't have a thread about Vanquish
Post by: PyroMenace on Wednesday, March 23, 2011, 03:03:41 AM: I impulse bought this over Amazon for $30, damn you Amazon. Watched the intro and played the tutorial and the first little section since I was short on time but it was fucking good. Can't wait to spend more time on it.

Post by: K-man on Monday, October 29, 2012, 08:31:06 AM: I finally got around to playing this. Grabbed it for 5 bucks from one of those one-day best buy sales last year.

Am I alone in thinking this game does Gears better than Gears?
Title: Re: We don't have a thread about Vanquish
Post by: iPPi on Monday, October 29, 2012, 08:52:45 AM: I saw this for $15 at a retailer a while ago. I might grab it in the near future; it looks quite good.
Title: Re: We don't have a thread about Vanquish
Post by: idolminds on Friday, November 16, 2012, 05:07:33 PM: I just beat it. Good ride but I was getting sorta tired of it by the end, even though its pretty short. And that ending...I said "What the fuck?" out loud. But still, it was pretty enjoyable. And the dialog made me laugh quite a few times.
Title: Re: We don't have a thread about Vanquish
Post by: K-man on Thursday, November 22, 2012, 05:41:33 PM: I went from loving this game to hating it in a few game hour's time. I don't think I'm going to bother finishing it.

Worth the 5 dollars I spent, though.

Post by: idolminds on Wednesday, May 10, 2017, 07:29:20 PM: Releases soon for PC (http://store.steampowered.com/app/460810/Vanquish/).

$20, and you get a discount if you have Bayonetta. Keep em coming, Sega. (Yakuza, plz)
Title: Re: We don't have a thread about Vanquish
Post by: Quemaqua on Wednesday, May 10, 2017, 07:35:46 PM: Man, how cool would it be to get the whole Yakuza series on PC?
Title: Re: We don't have a thread about Vanquish
Post by: Xessive on Wednesday, May 10, 2017, 08:44:56 PM: Hot on the heels of the apparent success of the Bayonetta PC port, guess what's coming? VANQUISH!

Coming to Steam on 25th May, 2017. (http://store.steampowered.com/app/460810/Vanquish/)

Post by: gpw11 on Wednesday, May 10, 2017, 10:03:25 PM: You're supposed to get 25% off Vanquish if you own Bayonetta but I found if you add them both to your cart you get 25% off each one, so something to take into account.
