How long is this game?

[SenMithrarin85]

Bayonetta is the only platinum game I've played that lasts longer than 4-6 hours. Does vanquish have a decent play time?

It's not too long, but replayable.

You should play Nier Automanta, it's very long.

I beat Vanquish on 360-- i think about 7 or 8 hours, but it is made in such a way to be replayable and encourages you to do so. Best 3rd person shooter I have ever played-- completely ****s on Gears of War, and I actually like Gears.

The length of Vanquish was always my only "negative" point when talking about it. When I first played thorugh, it only took around 4 hours. It's a short game, but a very good one, and I cannot possibly recommend it any more than I already do despite the short initial playthrough.

Vanquish is about 4 or 5 hours long, but it's easily my favorite Platinum game. And maybe one of my favorite cover shooters in general.

I loved to play vanquish on the xbox. The only detail that bothered me was the lack of multiplayer. That would totally destroy gears of war that had a strong multiplayer community during those times.

its very overhyped game, and very much run of the mill console shooter campaign, just made by japanese so its got some quirks which people loved.

personally i couldnt even finish it back when i had it for PS3, and wouldnt really recommend buying into the hype, its not that amazing.

i'd recommend alpha protocol or binary domain over this. better story, better gameplay, actual boss fights and not just gimmicks, and better enemy design. I remember specifically for most of vanquish you're in dark brown tunnels fighting the same generic halo 1 grunt enemies over and over.

like its a game in space, you're an awesome save the planet kind of guy, and they have you in a dark brown tunnel playing japanese gears

Honestly, this is straight up trolling. Almost nothing about Vanquish is "run of the mill." The boosting system and the way the game encourages you to always charge INTO the fray instead of away from it is unique, even to this day.

Also, this is graphically one of the best games from last gen and the amount of on screen explosions/enemies is incredible.

It's definitely short but it's also dense in a way that Transformers and Korra weren't. If you weren't happy with Revengeance though Vanquish is more in line with that than Bayonetta.

QUALITY OVER QUANTITY

[johnno23]

Play time on normal difficulty about 7 possibly 8 hours for the average player.
For the faster paced trigger happy player probably about 6 hours.
That said it is an excellent game and finally updated for the PC.
I smashed my way thru Vanquish at lest 8 times on the xbox till the red ring of death forced me to make a dcision of never another console in my lifetime.
The game is real fun..........is that not what a game is all about?
When my second crapbox died on me I must have logged at least 30 hours or more and was gutted that I now had a useless console and a great game
For me Vanquish was so much fun I reloaded and played thru a second time immediately after finishing it the 1st time around. The mechanics in game I liked, the satisfaction of taking down some of the bigger bots was rewarding. Also the game is made in such a manner that whilst linear there are still enough alternate ways to take down the enemy without the feeling of play rinse repeat.
Only other game I ever played as often was Bulletstorm.........but then Bulletstorrn has a wicked sense of humour that I really enjoyed.
Vanquish is a game for the adrenaline junkies.........crawl hide sneak snipe ??? NO WAY this is a hands on balls to the wall and jump straight into the action GUNS BLAZING.
Speed and accuracy in Vanquish make it one of the best shooters I have ever played....so much so that I am pretty sure once I finish whats in my library i will hit the download button on this PC release.

about 6 hours
