Vanquish looks awesome.

@Slimebeast:

Name me one modern shooter more hectic than DooM II. I defy you to do it.

In my opinion some of the ones I listed are. But it doesn't matter much because Doom II is from the other end of the spectrum - a new born baby from a primitive era. So it doesn't count, kinda.

Oh Hell yes it does.

The real old school is about frenetic action with more enemies than you can count filling the air with bullets and missiles and fireballs, honing your reaction time to within split seconds and being able to do stuff that no real person could do if they were actually fighting people with guns.

Tthe only reason it wouldn't count would be if it invalidates your argument - which I think it does. Vanquish appeals to the same sense of camp and frenetic action as the oldest shooters there are.
