SEGA’s Julian Mehlfeld dropped by the PlayStation Blog to give us some news about their upcoming Vanquish game. She treated us all with the surprise that the DEMO for the game would be dropping this next Tuesday (8/31) on the PSN. She also issued a challenge for all that downloads the DEMO.
So as a spot of fun, I figured I’d leave you with a challenge to see if you can best what I consider to be a very impressive clear-time on the demo. Our own internal producer, Keith, has become quite good at the demo from various trade shows and has a clear time of 6 minutes and 12 seconds. I challenge you to beat this time! Keith is good, but I’m betting the community will be able to best him in a few short days after release – prove me right, post screenshots if you can, and show them what community can do!
Here is the official synopses of the game:
Vanquish is set in a desperate future, one that centers around exponential population growth, a demand for resources, and a political power play from Russia that lands you in the heart of the action aboard an orbiting space station. You play Sam Gideon, DARPA Agent and co-designer of some very advanced technology – the Augmented Reaction Suit (ARS). Your mission is to work with the infiltrating military to restore order, find your fellow agents, and prevent an attack on New York City, among other American targets.
If you are wondering what the game looks like last week I posted up the gameplay trailer and some screen shots, you can also check them out after the break.
