At 14 dollars, Anyone who hasn't experience this; I say "here is your chance". Game is a blast to play and if you beat the game and still hunger for a battle, head into challenge mode and truly test yourself.

Wow, good competition between them but all the more better for the gamer and more outlets to purchase from. Hope everyone in the world would just strangely get redirected to that page and purchase that game. making Platinum Games sit down with a thought cloud overhead and in that cloud would read "Vanquish 2".

Yeah i was very impressed with the demo. A learning curve, sure, but not in a bad way. Just a lot of trial and error. My guess is they'll do this for the ps3 version at a later date, or they just had a 360 surplus.

If anyone doesn't own this yet, there's no excuse anymore.

Shame this doesn't cover the Ps3 version as well, but even at 20$, it's well worth it.

Vanquish is on PS3, and if you wanna go super duper nitty gritty, I think it has one or two pixels more on the PS3 version. So say those crazies at Digital Foundry anyway.

I bought this game and Got all the way to act 4. I found a crazy bug where the interact button stopped work. I delete my save game and started over. Same problem. Cleared the cache still same problem. Don't know what happened.

It has a lot of fun mechanics that more shooters should implement. Think I wound up picking it up for $20 awhile back.

I loved this game! Totally worth it at this price.

Bought this game about 5 months ago when it was $16 at TRU, unfortunately it's still in the shrinkwrap... Stupid backlog of games!

I got free shipping, but I also added a 6ft Rosewill HDMI cable which was $4.99 (instant $10 discount) to my order since I've been needing one.

Better deal for those who live by a Blockbuster. They're running a deal this week where games are B1G1 free for $15 and under. Vanquish is $15 so you get a free game as well. Some decent choices (Rock Band 3, Guitar Hero anything, Fallout New Vegas, Enslaved, Star Wars Force Unleashed 2, Assassin's Creed 2 just off memory).
Just an FYI for people.

Easy decision. Thanks for the heads-up Joystiq and whoever submitted that tip.

Why are Platinum Games so cheap? I would have thought the high quality stylish Mikami games would hold their value...
...If this keeps up I would love a Triple Platinum (Bayo, Vanq, And AnRei) on one optimized PS3 disc (Like the GOOD Capcorn of yesteryear)

This news is relevant to my interests. I've been waiting for the huge price drop, and now I can finally play this game :D

Big deal. I got this for $7.50 at Target several months ago. Totally worth it. Short game, but cool presentation.

If you haven't played this, buy it.
It is a stretch for full price, but it is a damn steal at this price. I LOVE this game!

This was a lovely game, but I think its incredibly bland aesthetic drove people away (or kept them from noticing it in the first place). Which is a shame.

Great gameplay mechanics (Best shooter mechanics ever?).
Blurry graphics.
Terrible storyline.

It bugs me that it doesn't have story co-op.
Too many games missed out on it.
