Vanquish blended Japanese-style action games with western-style third-person shooters creating a unique and engaging experience. Vanquish almost did one more thing that could have been quite interesting: pay homage to the son of one of the most legendary gaming ninjas ever… Joe Musashi.
DARPA is waiting for you to suit up in their brand new Augmented Reaction Suit and take it for a test drive. And the price it’s being sold for make it a hard offer to turn down.
With Vanquish having only been on store shelves for around a week now, the Platinum Games developed, 3rd-person shooter has been doing rather well on the sales charts.
“I hope you all get sucked in and have a blast playing Vanquish” said Atsushi Inaba producer of Vanquish. Inaba-san has achieved much more than just allowing us to have a blast.

This week, MMA fans are in luck while fans of music and legitimate musicians each have a package for their PlayStation 3. Not to cut short the Move gamers, there are two shooters on the front lines at the ready. Check out this week’s PlayStation releases and more (that’s right, more) below.

Vanquish has gained popularity since the first trailer debuted earlier in the year, partially due to its developer Platinum Games earning respect for releasing the beautiful Bayonetta.

Sam Gideon of Vanquish should’ve had it easy. His Augmented Reaction Suit (ARS) is bleeding edge technology, and his Battlefield Logic Adaptable Electronic Weapons Systems (BLADE) allows him to change weapons according to combat needs in real-time. Quite frankly, it would’ve been easy only if the Russian Federation didn’t have something up its sleeve.
