  • Vanquish is a fantastic game all around. It looks great, sound good, and plays incredibly well. You might be sick of shooters at this point, but Vanquish turns up the speed and throws so many set pieces and great sequences at you that it is hard not to...

  • Abstract:  Talk about your sleeper hit of the year. I knew absolutely nothing about Vanquish going into this review. It somehow had avoided me at E3 and none of the pre-release hype was particularly memorable. Even after the game arrived when I was studying the c...

  Published: 2010-11-09, review by: atomicgamer.com

  • Abstract:  Vanquish is a weird game, but it's awesome in a ridiculous mish-mash sort of way. Not only does it try to fuse both Eastern and Western action game designs, but also their stories and characters, and even shamelessly borrows features seen in a near-...

  • Over the top shooter action, pretty visuals, good boss battles,
  • voice acting, gameplay can get stale, and too short for no multiplayer modes.
  • Platinum Games releases their latest game offering after the popular ass-fest, Bayonetta, with the third-person shooter known as Vanquish. The game puts players into the boots of a soldier armed with a very high-tech battle suit in a future war betwe...

  • Abstract:  Platinum Games has been on a bit of a roll recently, and I was looking forward to their sci-fi shooter Vanquish the moment I laid eyes on it. Everything about the early videos showcasing the ridiculous feats players would be able to pull off with the h...
