The Vanquish trailer looks cool, but some of the scene looks like it was real turf like the battle inside this warehouse. Anyway check it out.
Here is the Trailer for Vanquish.

The trailer for Sup Com 2 (Supreme Commander 2) is really just the same with any other strategy game. I just hope they don't have it on the Xbox 360 becuase the first one was a complete mess on the Xbox 360 as the controls where hard to follow and not to mention the camera angles. Anyway enough about Supreme Commander 1, Supreme Commander 2 looks like there will be some units there from the previous one and brand new ships and aircrafts.
Anyway check out the trailer.
