What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
It has some very good actors and an well.. an interesting story.
Quantum Break, developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by Xbox Game Studios, is an ambitious hybrid of cinematic storytelling and interactive gameplay that seeks to blur the line between film and video game.
Huge advancements in graphics, although flawed and unoptimized.
I'm not a fan of Aidan Gillen and had never heard of Shawn Ashmore as Jack, but they both delivered fantastic performances and voice acting as did the rest of the cast, with great facial expressions.
I can tell this game was a console exclusive at one point since you can have three weapons that are each different for tactics (SMG main, Sniper secondary + Pistol) which clearly was built around the controller arrow keys.
