Vanquish

I can haz max payne?

Yeah, that looks just like Max Payne - if looking just like means looking absolutely nothing like ;)

Can't wait for this. Bayonetta is the best thing to happen to fighters in years, let's see if they can do the same for 3rd person blast em ups.
 
If this game can do for the 3rd-person cover shooter genre what Bayonetta did for the Devil May Cry-style hack'n slash games, then all could be good.

Just a shame that plot wise for Vanquish, it is very cliche and suffers from some hilariously bad dialogue.
 
How is it identical to max payne then ? max payne had a dive forward or off to side move and that was it no sliding on knees ? or didn't you play max payne ? only thing it has in common is slowing down time aka bullet time.

I'll certainly be getting this after the epic masterpiece that he made that is bayonetta.

Bayonetta was by Hideki Kamiya (Mr Devil May Cry) and Vanquish is by Shinji Mikami (Mr Resident Evil).
 
Ah forgot i was in consoles where identical game play with a new skin = new game ;)



Eh.... this looks and plays nothing like Max Payne. I can't even see any remote resemblance except the slo-mo. What kind of cognitive dissonance have you got that compares two games like-for-like just because they both share one small feature in common?

Oh! Gran Turismo is just like Mario Kart, fnarr fnarr ...... ;)

I stand corrected but I think it's being made by the same studio/team/part of team that made bayonetta just the top man is different.
I mean you can clearly see the bayonetta influence in terms of gameplay.

Played it yesterday on the 360. Seems pretty good! One of those games that will be £20-£25 pretty quickly.

Nice visuals and gameplay seems decent enough.
 
Is this the one that was initially likened to being Gears of War for the PS3? Then it went multiplatform.
 
The 360 and PS3 versions are apparently the most identical of any multiplatform release to date too. Exactly the same graphics, same resolution, same AA, same framerates, tiny dips in exactly the same areas (if any)... that's pretty awesome. Apparently the only disparities people could find were down to using component HD opposed to HDMI.

Thats great if true and if it is true shows just how bad some devs are for doing lazy ports saying it couldnt be done blah blah etc
