    The problem with this game is just that it is too short and far too easy, i found myself not two days after launch having achieved 100% completion (i would by no means consider myself much of a professional when it comes to fully completing anything) and left wondering what to do next with no other options within the game. Because of this, i was quite disappointed as the game and obviously the episodes in between were all very enjoyable and a joy to be a part of. I simply wish it just wasn't all over so quickly    … Expand

    Un juego bien logrado pero que en mi opinión es un juego medio aburrido y con una historia que no te engancha del todo.
    ademas es una historia muy corta que en mi opinión no vale mucho la pena jugarlo

    Instead, they seemed to use most of their focus to create an episode series inside the game, that show up between the chapters, using real actors playing the characters roles. However...i don't think it's a great idea to ask us to stop playing and watch a show that last about 20 minutes each episode. Need to be an Oscar material to justify and it's not. I didn't care much about the characters and the story, so i skipped most of it without any remorse.

    So, the time gimmick and the series, both the differential of Quantum Break among the other third person action games, don't work the way they were supposed to. The rest is the same usual shooting sequences a la Uncharted and Max Payne, but not as fun as them.

    In conclusion, i think Quantum Break It's an ok game, never bad and never great, just an ok experience during all its short less than 10 hours campaign, with a enormous wasted potential. My first disappointment of 2016.    … Expand

    It's a good game as a shooter (the covert system is useless however, you need to keep moving), but requires a huge amount of time (ironically) to read and see all the things needed to understand the story, and has some weird gameplay design choices: I can jump on a truck, but not on the truck a few meters away because is the one the block my path, or I can open this door rewind the time,It's a good game as a shooter (the covert system is useless however, you need to keep moving), but requires a huge amount of time (ironically) to read and see all the things needed to understand the story, and has some weird gameplay design choices: I can jump on a truck, but not on the truck a few meters away because is the one the block my path, or I can open this door rewind the time, but I can do it only there, all the other doors in the game stay closed. For my tastes it's too scripted and some time powers are actually magic powers, since I don't see how time can cause blast explosions of allow you to see through walls. Also the few puzzles ask you to simply press a button when standing in a scripted position and then run... Timeshift and Braid use the time in a better and less scripted way.
    You'll like it if you like heavily scripted, story-driven games filled with an insane amount of collectibles needed to be read in order to understand the story... and no absolute replay value.    … Expand

    Disappointing.......I thought this would be, maybe unfairly, the successor to max Payne.......... nope, not even close.....

    -controls feel loose and disjointed...
    -guns lack impact and just are no fun to use
    -slow Mo mechanic is not as fun as I thought........ max Payne series.... even 3.....are way better

    Buyer beware....... do not think its next-generation max Payne.....

    This has been done so much better before in a game called Singularity. This game has excellent acting and an o.k. story but very little game play. The fact that you have to stand totally still and look at the speaker to hear the dialogue is game delaying and annoying. The game is ridiculously short for what we pay for games now. Not anywhere near a masterpiece as some are calling it.

    Summarising this game I'd use the word mediocre. You spend about a third of the time doing the standard console actiongame slow walk looking at things and talking, a third watching live action cutscenes and a third using some powers and shooting the same 5 or so different enemies the entire game. The Powers you have are cool but are pretty similar to eachother and the action turns blandSummarising this game I'd use the word mediocre. You spend about a third of the time doing the standard console actiongame slow walk looking at things and talking, a third watching live action cutscenes and a third using some powers and shooting the same 5 or so different enemies the entire game. The Powers you have are cool but are pretty similar to eachother and the action turns bland pretty fast. You do have some choices to make but none of them matter in the end. Add to that the bland and boring gameplay and the ridiculous amount of time wasting walking slowly and rewatch unskippable cutscenes if you die, a replay is out of the question.
    If you really want to see the cutscenes from the other choice you are better off watching it on youtube than playing through this game again.
    The story is not bad but it's pretty "meh".
    As for any good words about this game all I can say is the game does have some nice lighting and it looks pretty good despite an upscaled 720p, it lacks some of the nicer reflections and shadowquality of the pc version but otherwise a pretty good looking game. The motionblur is less prevalent compared to pc because you sit further away from the screen. The acting/voice acting is top notch.
    I gave this version 1 point more than the pc version as it is running as expected on console. It is optimised for the console and you can't fault it for not running at higher frames and resolution considering the crappy hardware in the console.
    Still it's definately not a buy imo at full price, wait for a sale, used copy or "free" with games with gold.    … Expand

La historia del tiempo sobraba totalmente, dado que la historia sin spoilearla, se ha visto tanto en el cine como en otros juegos hasta la saciedad.

    La serie es lo mejor del juego O.o, tiene huevos, porque son personajes que ni interesan en el juego, secundarios y que si bien son mas carismaticos que los protagonistas, al quedar relegados en un segundo plano, el objetivo del juego es otro, y no ellos.

    El gameplay, las coberturas funcionan, pero las habilidades, creo que estan muy mal distribuidas. yo hubiese puesto, la habilidad que te permite un cuerpo a cuerpo, mucho antes, dado que te obliga si o si a jugar con las distancias. ya que a cortas, no solo apuntas mal sino que ellos si te pueden dar hostias cuerpo a cuerpo. Y por ejemplo la explosión temporal, la ultima, dado que es la que mas cheta esta.

    Decir tambien que el desarrollo de habilidades, es lo mas cutre e insulso, que solo incita a que sea coleccionable, porque la evolución que tienen, son malas, pero malas. Basicamente, me he pasado parte del juego con mas de 10 puntos de "experiencia" sin usar, y ni me ha importado. Despues obviamente los he usado, y he sentido el juego igual.

    Animaciones horrorosas. Dejemoslo ahí.

    Banda sonora discretita, que como he dicho antes, y creo que no es casualidad, dado que el estudio ha querido enfatizar mas en el final (super abierto por otra parte) es "buena". Basicamente no hay banda sonora excepto en alguna que otra escena, y en END OF ACT mientras las letras bailan un poquito.

    Por ultimo, decir que al final, tambien, el aspecto grafico no mejora, pero si se hace mas bonito de ver, cuando ya te has quedado asumiendo casi el 70% del juego de sus carencias, tiempos de carga y demas, al final ni le prestas atención.

    Quantum Break is a letdown in too many areas. Though the gun-play is solid and the Time powers are fun to mess around with, everything else falls flat on its face. The story is boring, the characters are boring, and none of your choices affect the story in a meaningful way. Don't buy this pile of sh*t, buy Halo MCC or Sunset Overdrive, but not this.

    Bought it out of curiosity. Nothing special at all. Basically hype. Rise of the Tomb Raider I bought the season pass today and give it a 10/10 and am playing through it again. This is about a 5 compared. Sometimes they throw in a stupid idiotic no brainer puzzle which only stops the immersion.

    I've played about half way, put it down the other day and no urge to pick it up again. It's not addictive. Not compelling at all. Just very 'gimmicky' and a novelty until it wears off.

    Puzzles seem like filler not real intelligent puzzles. The upgrade tree is nothing like To,b Raider or Witcher 3. Just a token upgrade of powers and thry tend to get boring after a while.

    You feel like you're in God mode. Nothing challenging.

    Maybe it's just me but this game did nothing for me, didn't addict or captivate me or even make we want to go back to it. The puzzles were so pathetic it would have been better not to have any.

    Graphics nothing special. Can't really recommend it over the latest Assassins Creed or Tomb Raider as they are top notch games with plenty to do. This seems very linear and scripted to the point it feels very, very short. Not worth the price of admission. I would get Far Cry Primal over this as there's a lot more to do. This half simple Simon shooter, half simple Simon story doesn't really do it for me. If that changes I'll come back and give it higher but for now I'm disappointed. It doesn't do any one thing well.

If they were going for cliches and Nissan advertisements, they nailed it, but a mediocre television show isn't a game. The actual guts of Quantum Break are almost more of a letdown when you consider the theme of the game is time travel. We could've gotten awesome puzzles and more daring editing with the fractured timeline stuff and perhaps new mechanics or scenes that really highlight that what you're doing is time stuff, not just a samey and uninspiring third-person shooter where your cardboard cutout protagonist sluggishly non-walks or non-runs around, bumping into time things... It's not very long either so you're left with the feeling that you just dealt with bad prime-time cable TV and ran around shooting at big dudes and all you have to show for it is a bevy of very easy achievements and a dilemma of how you can wring more from the game to justify paying anything over $40 for it.

    Quantum Break is an incredible game that will hook you for its ten hour duration and stay with you long after that. The story is packed with mystery, suspense, and engaging characters caught in a high stakes situation where every decision is significant. While adding TV show may not have revolutionized storytelling, Quantum Break is a must play game for those looking to sink their teeth into a meaningful adventure.

    While it doesn't always gel in a way that feels genuinely new, there are enough successful unfamiliar concepts here to make Quantum Break feel like a step forward for Remedy. [June 2016, p.100]

    Quantum Break is a bad movie, but a really good game. It did not convince me with its poor (and poorly told) story and characters that I did not care about at all, but as a shooter it is really enjoyable and creative. [05/2016, p.38]
