    Can someone sell me on Vanquish please? What is it about it? Is it Gears of War meets character action somehow?

    You certainly don't want it for anything but it's fast-paced gameplay. Cover-based shooter, just that you ( are supposed to) move between covers pretty frequently and do so by sliding over fast on your metal butt. Or back, not just on your butt. There's a manual bullet-time that helps you out when it gets too hectic. Not a ton of enemy variety, most interesting ones are probably the mini-bosses/bosses.

    The style's is okay, though it's maybe a bit too clean and sterile future look for the whole thing. The story and the characters are either terrible or just dull, with plot twists that you could predict even if you were blind and deaf. Not good even in the charming BIG BO way of Binary Domain.
