Vanquish Hands-on Preview: "Faster than Modern Warfare, more explosive than Killzone"

CVG writes: "Enemies killed 52. Times died zero. Friendlies revived two... the list goes on. As we stare at the screen, we have another moment of indecision. Should we play again on Normal? Or Hard? More certainly, there's nothing like Vanquish on any console; fusing Modern Warfare 2's byte-size Spec Ops missions to Bayonetta wild bosses, with unique, compelling, aggression."

Hit the jump for more.

seriously am gonna buy this game but i really hate the fact that multiplayer was ruled out, wtf...

Nike5062d ago

Game like this seems made for multiplayer, but you know Platinum Games and Mikami - when they go for single player experiences, they give their all. I'm loving the gameplay for Vanquish and I hope they release it soon.

Cloudberry5062d ago

Since I don't have an Internet connection for my 360 & PS3 yet (money issues...) + I'm also not a Multi-Player gamer, I'm hoping the Single Player would be at least good.

MNicholas5062d ago

From the looks of it, Crysis 2 is just another generic shooter.

Vanquish is a genuine genre-buster. Very exciting to see some genuine innovation in gaming.

DelbertGrady5062d ago (Edited 5062d ago )

Didn't know it was an FPS. Silly flamebait title ftw?

Nike5062d ago (Edited 5062d ago )

Yeah, the title is silly for sure (can think of more "fast-paced" stuff than Modern Warfare and more "explosive" stuff than Killzone 2 if we want to be literal), but if the game is all it can be, I say build the hype. If Vanquish lives up to it or surpasses it, great. If it doesn't, no skin off our backs. And if it's still fun, then day one. :)

dredgewalker5062d ago

I'm really excited about the game and i hope that Vanquish delivers the action it promises. 2010 is now officially the greatest year of gaming for everyone.

jaosobno5062d ago (Edited 5062d ago )

Too bad there is no multiplayer, it would rock!!! But I bet we can expect it in Vanquish 2.

cmrbe5062d ago (Edited 5062d ago )

Lighting fast and deep but particle effects is nothing compare to KZ2.

I really don't know what you guys are talking about regarding single player. Byonetta SP is completely forgettable. Comical with its comical soundtrack. I am not surprise if Vanguish is the same.

Just because you have alot of explosions and stuff happening around doesn't make it amazing.

Honestly playing the rocket sequence as well as the bike sequence made me feel like i was playing an old arcade game.

Vanguish looks good though. I will most likely buy it as well. If the combat is as good as Byonetta then that is worth the price alone.

As for those that are complaining about no MP. Booh HooH.

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

mastershredder11d ago (Edited 11d 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.

FreeckyCake11d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX11d 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.

Friendlygamer11d ago

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

YourMommySpoils11d ago

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

Friendlygamer11d ago (Edited 11d 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 )

jznrpg11d 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_Suzumiya324d ago

Island, Steins;Gate Elite and Soma.

MadLad324d ago

Soma is an epic experience.

jznrpg324d ago (Edited 324d 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

shinoff2183324d ago (Edited 324d ago )

FRom what i could find. Nothing with English subs.

Yui_Suzumiya323d ago

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

Yui_Suzumiya323d ago (Edited 323d 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.

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

cthulhucultist359d 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

Vengeance1138359d ago

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