@SOUP

You know, I don't get that impression at all.
Russians, but especially Soviet Russia's portrayal in the american media has always been somewhat sympathetic.

The real villain in generally many movies post-1970s has been to a greater degree, the american goverment, the american military(the so called indutrial-military complex) and the CIA.

The very few american made film that has communists as true villains is Red Dawn and Rambo. There are barely 15 american movies produced that are anti-communist.

Funfact

In the original The Return of Godzilla, a Russian commander tries (Unsuccessfully as he dies) to stop a nuclear missile hitting Tokyo, in the American dub, the scene is recut to make the Russian commander look like he actually launched the missile himself.

Even Godzilla was used as a form of propaganda!

Russians as villains? Wow, they must be aiming at the American audience with that one. Who would've guessed? Are you buying it, American fellows?

Err, nWo was the one of the most important parts of WCW's success during the Monday Night Wars. It was stupid decisions like giving Hogan, Nash etc creative control in their contracts, and Vince Russo's batshit insane booking that killed WCW...

WCW = 90's SEGA (high creativity bad management)
WWE = Nintendo (stupid kiddy/mainstream product)

True. Sorry about that.

The way the guy describes Vanquish, it almost feels like it's an answer to the old school Metroid game(or the most recent Shadow Complex).

I hope Mikami shows Nintendo how to do Metroid like Kojima showed them how to do Zelda with Okami.

Instead i am increasingly convinced that this will be an FPS with "innovative" elements as it was METROID PRIME at the time , although until now i myself would have bet on a third-person shooter ,  which i prefer.

Regarding the fact of RussiansVS.USA do not like me too , from PLATINUM GAMES i expected more inventive ; but it is still called the 'last word.

Don't you think engine wise this might be the true next gen "successor" to the RE4 engine?

I'm envisioning a third-person shooter with QTE's and CQC.
