Vanquish: A Solid Shooter Let Down by Hype

Cultured Vultures: "PlatinumGames' ridiculous sci-fi shooter has come to PC, and we've got a latecomer's perspective after seven years of hype and recommendations."

This was a very underrated game. It's a shame it didn't get more appreciation.

FullmetalRoyale3276d ago

Underrated, but not under appreciated, it seems. It always makes me glad when I see someone give Vanquish it's due, and it isn't rare. Platinum have such a finger on the pulse with gameplay, with few exceptions.

sonarus3276d ago

Vanquish was not a bad game at all. Wasn't aware of any hype so I just enjoyed the game. Probably got knocked for not having multiplayer because that was such a big deal last gen

SlightlyRetarted3275d ago

I honestly think Vanquish was the best pure 3rd person shooter last gen (all about gameplay). When you played the harder difficulties and found combos like slide to melee triggered the slo-mo jump into the air etc. was just so much fun.

hype... hype let vanquish down... what?

TheOttomatic913275d ago (Edited 3275d ago )

If anything it was the opposite one of the main complaints was the relatively small play time it took to finish the game "reviewers" would post screenshots finishing the game at 4-5 hrs though it failed to show how ridiculous and brilliant the game was.

I'm guessing author wasn't around during Vanquish launch (or older Platinum game launches) a lot of journalists used to attack Platinum Games for the silliest of reasons it wasn't until Bayo 2 that they changed their tone.

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

mastershredder773d ago (Edited 773d ago )

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake773d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX772d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer773d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils773d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer773d ago (Edited 773d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg773d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything

Titan fall 2 was chefs kiss. For those of you who haven't played it go ahead. Brilliant. With each level being creatively different.

Yui_Suzumiya1086d ago

Island, Steins;Gate Elite and Soma.

MadLad1086d ago

Soma is an epic experience.

jznrpg1086d ago (Edited 1086d ago )

Does ISLAND have English subs ? I can’t find a copy that says it has English subs for PS only the Switch version which I rather not buy .

Love Steins Gate and Soma

shinoff21831086d ago (Edited 1086d ago )

FRom what i could find. Nothing with English subs.

Yui_Suzumiya1085d ago

I own a physical copy on Switch and it does have English subtitles so it's all good on Switch and Playstation.

Yui_Suzumiya1085d ago (Edited 1085d ago )

My bad. Steam and Switch have English but PS4 and Vita only have Japanese. Sony doesn't mess with many visual novels which is why I only own a Switch OLED and laptop for all my games.

neutralgamer19921121d ago (Edited 1121d ago )

Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10

I hope one day we get some remakes for the following

The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)

Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time

cthulhucultist1121d ago

I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.

The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.

The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.

Here's hoping for an amazing sequel

Space Marine II !! My most anticipated game of 2023! Woot
