New Platinum Games title lacks climaxing

Some new screens of Vanquish -the next game from Shinji Mikami and Platinum Games have emerged. You may remember we covered the announcement of the announcement a little while back. We were greeted with a mostly live-action teaser. It was rad, but like all teasers, gave us fuck all to be going on with.



These screens don't really give us anything more, but I have managed to gleam a few info nuggets from them.

1. That armour looks rad
2. It looks like a super-charged arcadey cover shooter
3. Falcon punch!

As cool as it looks, I can't help but be a little apprehensive about the disturbing lack of climaxing in these shots. Platinum Games have set a precedent of climax-filled action now, and I'm hungry for more. I feel that me and Bayonetta have now climaxed over enough angels together. Is Platinum not willing to further my climax quest? There are still so many baddies that crave to be climaxed upon: Platinum, do not blue-ball me.

Fourth title from Platinum Games to be announced, maybe some point today

 The latest Gametrailers TV episode that airs in America, 12pm their time, will feature the exclusive reveal of Platinum Games' elusive fourth title. Platinum stated that they would be producing 4 titles with Sega: Bayonetta, MadWorld, Infinite Space and one more unannounced title top be headed by Resident Evil creator, Shinji Mikami. This could potentially be fucking huge. And since I've now done a total U-turn on how I feel about Bayonetta, my excitement is at an all-time high.

I don't know what time we'll be able to watch that episode, I never follow Gametrailers - a massive oversight on my part, I know- so if anyone knows when I'll be able to find out, please let me know in the comments. For now, keep watch, ready for me to go ape-shit excieted or mad depending on what they announce.
