15 Games That Were Advertised On Illogical Gameplay Features

Vanquish

Subtlety isn’t the strongest trait of Platinum Games, especially when it was releasing action games like Vanquish. At a time when third person shooters with cover-based mechanics were still fairly popular, Vanquish challenged the player to do more. It wanted them to rocket-slide over to obstacles, leap over them in slow motion, somersault kick enemies and play in style. Even with its awkward story and dialogue, Vanquish remains a cult classic to this day.
