    A hack-and-slash button-masher with an excellent story, good controls, and striking visuals. I really liked it, but I do wish it had a touch more depth via customization so there was a reason to replay it beyond seeing if I could rack up 4,000 kills instead of just 3,500.

    A fun jaunt through a war-torn ancient China, and I'll be the first to say that mowing down lines of soldiers is rather thrilling. But without more depth or a decent storyline, Vanquish remains a simple hack-and-slash.

    A constant brutal ride that challenges players with its gameplay and art style, but might be too much for anyone that's not a hardcore fan of Action-RPGs.

    Alluring black and white graphics meet colourless action in this underwhelming historical hack 'n' slash adventure.

    The on-rails gameplay, lack of control variety, and bland graphics hurt Gamevil's horseback hack 'n slash.

    I can only recommend then that if you want style and substance, you should look to Gamevil's other stylish RPG - Hybrid - instead.
