Likewise. I would love that, but if keeping this game on consoles means that PG can maximize profit, then so be it. I would hate for them to lose sales because of piracy.DeBurgo said:

Gears of War 2 looks pretty awesome. Vanquish looks good, too.Alucrid said:

I'm loving the hell out of this game, but I must admit, I thought there would be more awesome boss fights like in the demo. I also thought that it has a pretty weak opening too.
Not really sure how far I am into the game (been playing on and off all day) but during my last session the game hit a stride with it's set pieces that I think rival some of Uncharted 2's.

No way LOL. That's awesome!
This game is absolutely amazing when it all clicks. I'm at Act 2-5, and loving it, even though I just ragequit. Rocking my fully-upgraded AR and ending robot lives all over the place.
I got to the big slope area with falling debris that's been shown in a lot of preview footage, and after finishing everything off, I was mopping up to get upgrades, as I tend to do. Unfortunately, while grabbing a rocket launcher, I got hit by some errant debris and died instantly. What a waste.
Still, I look forward to tackling the same area tomorrow. The game is so fast, and your abilities give you a lot of flexibility in how to tackle any challenge. I hardly use grenades, but besides that it's great taking advantage of boost and ARS mode to turn the tables on your foes.
5 deaths at this point, not counting my last one.

Disk launcher gives you melee attacks without depleting your AR meter(it instead depletes ammo).
It can also be used to cut off limbs from certain enemies.
Lock On Laser should just be spammed and then trashed.

Just beat it.
Very surprised to see that Hiroshi Shibata did not work on this game at all.
Things I want in the sequel:
- Less blurry textures.
- Better visuals all around. I know you can do it.
- No frame-rate drops. (They don't happen often, but it does get noticeable in some parts.)
- More post-game content.
- Slightly longer campaign.
- More Sam.
- More Elena.
- More ARS.
- Bring the Terrier back, somehow.
- Bring the female android back, somehow.
- Inverse kinematics. I dislike seeing inconsistent footing when walking up a slope.
- No multiplayer.
- No multiplayer.
- No multiplayer.
Very minor things for me. INCREDIBLE game. I'm going to replay Normal again to get all of the time bonuses and Pangloss statues.
Oh yeah, My completion time was around 5 hours. It's definitely longer than that, though. I took some breaks, but I started playing this around 10 AM (it's 12 AM now, so take away about 2-3 hours from whatever total you get).
EDIT: Also, I didn't die once.

GREAT GAME!
Played the first act and my god that was awesome. Died 3 times, all three times were mostly due to me being dumb.

i just played some and think the game looks absolutely beautiful and better than comparable games (on X360 at least, not going to bring Uncharted 2 in here).
The only issue i have is between color scheme and the amount of stuff going on the game looks a little confusing.
Edge gave it
They seem to be bothered with the lack of content and replayability in comparison with Bayonetta. http://www.next-gen.biz/features/vanquish-review
an 8, though it sounded like a 9 throughout the review.

I was unsure about the game after playing the demos. It was fun but I was hoping that the game would have a greater focus on melee and mobility over shooting and cover. Anyway, I bit the bullet because I love platinum and mikami and am really enjoying it so far. I have to say though, playing it on hard is the only way to go with this game. Don't bother with normal guys!

So, anybody maxed out any weapons?
I've maxed out the Assault Rifle, Heavy Machine Gun, and Disk Launcher.

Short, but I expected that.ezekial45 said:
You're fighting in a small Stanford torus, so you're able to traverse some curvature. It's kind of neat. I really didn't expect the gameplay mechanics to change at all, and they don't. Shinji Mikami is very consistent when it comes to stuff like that.
Also,
everything about this game screams "TEST", to me. Not a bad thing. I think they just want to see how audiences react.
A sequel is pretty much guaranteed from the last set of cutscenes. The sequel will be the real thing, I think. Can't wait! But take your time, PlatinumGames.

Has anyone bought the Future Press guide?
If so how is it? I see it for 13 on Amazon and wondering if it's worth getting.
