Enjoyable but limited content and flawed experience. Interesting combat but broken up but a confusing story and a strange TV show tie-in you watch between chapters

I just beat it took me well over 9 hours game has excellent graphics gameplay is fun story is great I recommend it to everybody I rated a 9.1 out of 10

A game like Quantum Break is a rarity. Retail shelves and digital stores see tens, if not hundreds of new titles every month and when one of them pushes the boundaries of what we know then people take notice.

Strong cast with a great script; Gorgeous in motion; Frantic and fun game play; Well crafted merger of gaming and television

Some minor control quirks; Sound inside ‘time stutters' is annoying

Few games use live-action cutscenes as emphatically as Quantum Break. It's one of the game's defining elements. Between each of its five gameplay-based chapters, you have the opportunity to watch roughly 20-minute-long episodes, which are entirely optional but designed to offer insight into the...

Impressive visuals; Great environmental destructability; Effective performances from a great cast; Time powers enable great creativity during combat

Sloppy movement and weapon controls; The element of choice isn't as powerful as it seems; Forced; unimaginative platforming sections

Part action game and part live action sci-fi mini-series, it's difficult to analyse the dual nature of Quantum Break, but you can't help but applaud the developer's undeniable ambition, even if

Clever narrative design; Time powers elevate combat; Great performances from the main cast..

...but the supporting cast isn't on par; Plot contrivances abound; Not much variety in the gameplay

The launch of Quantum Break - the first ever title shown for Xbox One - is finally here. It's the story of Jack Joyce (played by Shawn Ashmore) and his best friend Paul Serene (played by Aidan Gillen), caught on opposite sides of a fracture in time that threatens to bring about the end of time.

Scratch away at that and you've got a watchable TV series wrapped around a focussed and competent game, but Remedy's keen sense of style manages to elevate Quantum Break to something just about worthwhile. Maybe it's because of how eccentric the whole enterprise is.

The Xbox One version of Quantum Break was primarily tested for the purpose of this review. Whilst Remedy isn't exactly known for publishing a steady stream of titles, but rather putting them a few years apart, they've always been known to deliver influential narratives that also build upon...

I honestly wanted to give Quantum Break a 10/10. I love sci-fi, I love confident and competent time travel stories and I love Remedy. It's a wonderful game, don't get me wrong, and is almost deserving of absolute praise but a couple of things glared once it was all done and dusted, when I completed...
