The quintessential third person shooter. That's right. It's time to fuck off Gears of War, because Shinji Mikami and his old Clover
buddies at Platinum Games have just upstaged you. By taking the basic concept of third person cover based shooting (a la Gears) and essentially transforming it into a bullet-paced character action game with shooting in it, Platinum has made what I consider the gold standard for third person shooting focused games from now on. And even though the story is less than paper thin and the campaign can be beaten in practically under five hours, those five hours are some of the most fun I have ever had while playing a video game. Uncharted 2 is eight hours and has huge set pieces with moments splitting up the chapters. Vanquish is five hours and every second of it is a huge set piece.
