    A bold, 10-year old experiment in sliding and shooting in which the sliding part definitely aged better. [04/2020, p.69]

    The Vanquish Remaster brings a ton of much-needed, fast-paced, arcade fun back into the third-person shooter world. Excellent design, goofy characters and vibrant environments make this a pleasant playthrough even 10 years later.

If you'll play on harder difficulties and chase the highscores you can get much more hours out of this game, but still it's not too expensive for what it is (I got physical bundle with Bayonetta for about 35 euros on launch). Graphics are quite outdated but still look relatively nice, and gameplay is very fun.… Full Review »
