Vanquish sucked. (Gaming)

I bought it and finished it last year in hopes of catching all the hype everyone seems to have for it.

Was the first encounter fun? Yes!

Was the rest of the game? I can't remember anything about it, which leads me to believe that it was so repetitive that at some point my brain stopped storing it to my long term memory.

I do remember that the story was cringe-worthy and riddled with cliche. Oh, and there was a boss fight at the end where I was fighting two of the same guy. That's about it.

Edit: After having my morning coffee, this post seems uncharacteristically grumpy of me. Still don't like Vanquish.

I was somewhat unimpressed at first but only at first. The combat system is incredibly deep, incredibly flexible, and incredibly fun. Try upping the difficulty, and you'll be forced to learn the nuances of the systems. Every gun has a purpose, as does every move. You'll feel like a badass soon enough.
