Name something that Vanquish did that was new to gaming.
Skating around on your knees at 50 mph from cover to cover? That's different from the other 3rd person shooters I've played this gen. Makes the entire game play super fast.

Name a game that it inspired

If it's another linear shooter, I at least hope there's some interesting gameplay mechanics, instead of just cover shooting.
Daniel Day Lewis?
Why?
Daniel Day Lewis to play Sir Galahad in upcoming movie adaptation confirmed!

I really wish this was an FPS, but it looks cool regardless.

Vanquish's knee slide is nothing more than your basic sprint function with Mikami's style painted over it. Try harder

Cuz what's the point of bringing anything new to the table if there is no impact?
Sprinting in all directions? I'm not saying there aren't other games to do it, but of the all 3rd person shooters I've played this gen, they only let you do it 1 direction, forward. Vanquish you can immediately do it forwards, backwards, leftways, rightways, diagonal ways, all while having greater control and precision. You can say it's a glorified sprint but if you wish but it does function differently and quite literally adds more dimensions to sprinting.
I was never arguing whether it inspired anyone or was going to leave a long lasting legacy on the gaming industry, that's why I asked, Why? It's like if me and some dude were arguing about which team scored the most touchdowns this year and you jump into the convo and ask, "Well did that team go to the Super Bowl?" It's not even relevant to what I was replying to.

This gif should just go on a little longer so that we get that stare. It might also be a good idea to put PS4 at the end too!:

I really hope it doesn't play that much like Gears of War.,
This gamne needs to be unique and innovative, not merely just a rehash of another series.
There are enough games trying to emulate or outright duplicate GoW's gameplay.

Since when did the over-the-shoulder view mean Gears of War? Did they patent it or something?
Yeah.. I dont get the gears vibe that some people here are feeling.
And god i hope it doesn't feel like gears at the end.
If there's a heavy Gears inspiration here then that's a turn-off for me.
I hate the "Here's a bit of dialogue, now kill wave after wave of enemies" type of game.
I don't mind a "filmic", "cinematic" experience as long as there's a good bit of exploration/puzzle solving similar to the Uncharted games.

It's just incredible how one comment creates pointless speculation and concern:

Just stopped by for a gander?
I'll pick it up down the road. I know I'm not getting an XB1 any time soon.
I just hope the game isn't a mess and that it delivers.

It's not a (sci-fi) military shooter. It's a time period not often used, it's steampunk-ish (which is a huge plus for me), it deals with the supernatural and super old characters.
We're really having Gears of War comparisons just because of the camera? Talk about jumping the gun and it appears people are actually not even questioning that comparison and are turned off from the game because of it even though we know NOTHING about how similar the gameplay is and that a cinematic game probably doesn't consist of just a few lines and waves of enemies?
Man, one comparison leads to a lot of funny comments.
I'm really excited to see these physics in action.

just pre-ordered.
game informers service is horrible
I had a subscription and switched it to digital. The digital edition was terrible though, so I figured once it ended that I would renew my membership as a print subscriber.
I called and got back to print, they have yet to send me an issue. I called 6 months ago and they said that the system screwed up and they would fix it for me. Called back 2 months later and they said once again that the system screwed up my address. Said I would receive my first issue soon.
This thread made me wonder again where the hell are my issues and I called again. They now told me that my magazine subscription was not in the system but they see I am a subscriber who renewed. Now I can expect my first issue in 5-8 weeks
I doubt that i'll ever receive an issue again. I would go to digital but like I said, they have to be the worst digital magazine on the ipad.

The game is letterboxed?
Well there goes any interest I have in the game already.
That kind of thing is a real dumb way to get around not being native res. It makes it harder to play the game and just tosses away screen space.
Fullscreen or nothing.

This actually looks really good. Hopefully it's not releases around the tim if Destiny though.

A movie shot for a cinema screen makes sense it would be letterboxed on a 16:9 screen.
A video game? Why? Whats the benefit? Why is the game designed for a screen size that doesnt exist in the living room?
Its why I lost any interest in The Evil Within as well. Shits dumb. Hurts people with small / medium TV's and just looks wrong.
Because devs have created engine that emulates real world camera lenses, and they want to create game that uses that specific art style. That decision is as valid as devs wanting to create cellshaded or black&white game.

Same reason crytek choose 900p as their resolution better graphics.
Except one will be blurry and one won't.

This is currently the only PS4 game I am interested in. I am really looking forward to it and hope it turns out amazing.

Gears of War went super wide when doing the roadie run and Resistance 3 I believe.

I have a feeling this could be the next 'Gears' or 'Uncharted'. Sony Santa Monica and Ready at Dawn are two incredibly talented studios and it sounds like they are really striving for a strong cinematic action adventure experience.
One of the PS4 exclusives I'm most excited for right now.

tempted to buy the magazine through the GI app. worth it?
I remember it being really low, and them blurring the edges, but I don't remember that, cool.
I would hope it wont quite be the same situation, cutting off the top of an existing game that was designed to use that space makes it annoying, hopefully The Order will actually take into account less visible space vertically so we aren't always aiming up and down all the time to see things.
Except one is entirely down to performance from a hardware perspective that then is being upscaled to fill a 1080p image, the other is has as shown been designed from the pre-production days to use the aspect ratio and is 1:1 pixel mapped to the resolution.

In approximate 35mm film terms normal gunplay was around 35mm, aim down sights at 60mm while the roadie run was about 18-24mm.
I don't think it'll be an issue, I think RAD have a pretty damn impressive track record, and I am very excited about the game.
This is a difficult distinction to make. CryTek claim no matter what, that Ryse would be 900p. That they feel that is a high enough baseline for visual fidelity that any additional performance is better spent on richer assets or finer AA, etc.
It's not as simple as more resolution is better. You can present a cleaner image at much lower resolution if you have better AA. To use an extreme example, Crysis 3 at 4K would still pale compared to Avatar, which was rendered at 2K. It's easy call bullshit on Crytek's claim, but it could have been an aesthetic decision. You can disagree with it being a good idea, as I disagree with The Order being in scope being good, but I think people were unfair in that thread.

This game is right up my alley; cinematic, story driven, 19th century London. steampunk-ish, thriller, lazers, mustaches...

Who cares? Vanquish was incredibly fun and made getting around the environment enjoyable. If other developers haven't copied Vanquish, it's their faults.
