WHOS GETTING IT?

[Alex Supersonic]

I'm getting it for sure, maybe this special edition from Zavvi (http://www.zavvi.com/games/platforms/xb ... 43215.html)


UPDATE 13.10.2010: Looks like I got a wrong information about the Famitsu score. The real one is 37/10 (9, 9, 10, 9). Sharky please update the review score in your topic. Sorry for that.

You'd think so wouldnt you... but there is bound to be SOMEONE out there that has some random complaint about it, like his eyes are too blue and suddenly thats a deal breaker.

[Barry the Nomad]

I wont be getting just yet, I have a lot of games to finish! However I will be buying it new (not used) before the year ends.

His world is too gray.

i'll buy it for sure but don't know if the normal or limited ed. It's cool but a bit expansive =/

[CrazyT]

I'll get it eventually. Depends on what other games i'll be interested in at the time. Still nothing at the moment so :mrgreen:

[Centrale]

I'm hoping to get it ASAP but might have to wait a little while due to finances.

[MadeManG74]

Definitely getting it! Wasn't excited for it until I played the demo and found the cigarette button, but now it's GOTY 2010.

[CosmicCastaway]

I'm not sure if I'm going to get this or not. Honestly, I don't find duck-and-cover shooters all that fun. It's the main reason why I can't get into games like Uncharted, Gears of War, etc. However, if this game is more of a straight up action shooter I might consider it, but at the moment it doesn't look like my cup of tea.

You should check the demo out, it's really quite different to Gears of War if you play if differently (some would say 'play it right').
It's meant to be really fast paced and cover is only really there for a last resort it seems.

Having said that, it might still not be your thing, but give it a shot at least.

The game wasn't even listed as as an antecipated october release by gamefaqs:

It seems that Vanquish is going to Bomb...

[George]

Because GameFAQ has bad taste games?
