16 Minutes of Quantum Break Gameplay on Xbox One

IGN shows off 16 minutes of Quantum Break gameplay

KiwiViper853472d ago

Any one else get the feeling this might be ready for release earlier than holiday 2015???

I'm not too sure about this game. It slows down every 5 seconds (talking about game design not framerate). It looks like it could get annoying.

Still there is still probably a long way to go to change it before it comes out

PixelEnemy3472d ago

I think a slower pace could be good.

ThinkThink3472d ago (Edited 3472d ago )

I don't the the game itself slows down, just the background (time warping). At least from the video I saw.

edit: nevermind, i got what you meant.

4Sh0w3472d ago

I'm not bothered by how often time stops as I just think their purposely showing this section of the game to show off his time stop powers and how he can use it to navigate the environments.

What I don't like is how he stops after every platform manuever, I want his movement to be more fluid but I'm not sure if that's just how the user was playing slow or its actually animated that way. That said the game itself looks to have a deep story, intense action and cutting edge next gen graphics so I'm sure this will be another hit from Remedy.

nicksetzer13472d ago (Edited 3472d ago )

The time stops are clearly overexaggerated to show them off. It is a showcase demo...

cannon88003472d ago

I'm pretty sure there will probably be one or two scripted sequences where time slows down, but it's just to set up the story and stuff. Nothing wrong with that. This game looks pretty cool but I won't be able to play it because I don't have an Xbox One.

MarkusMcNugen3472d ago

Remedy is an amazing developer, and every one of their games so far has been simply amazing. I bought my Xbox One at launch specifically because I knew this game was coming out for it.

I am so excite...

3472d ago
Irishguy953471d ago

At nicksetzer, yeah I agree. This game is just showing off the power of the X1, just like Ryse, and just just like Uncharted and god of war. Linear and uninspired gameplay. Made for showcasing the power.

1OddWorld3471d ago

Looks good. I'm getting a little bit of a "Infamouse:Second Son" vibe from it. That's a good thing though. Infamouse was a great game Story/Visually. Where I do see what people are talking about with the frame rate I wouldn't be concerned about this at all there is still a lot of time to tune and polish this game.

I am ProSony but I am also ProGaming and this one looks good.

@KiwiViper85: It might be, but the tv show it's supposed to release alongside may not be ready until then.

It looks good, but for me, so far, feels too much like Uncharted/TLoU in regards to taking you away from the action so often. I'm kinda tired of that stuff now (reason I could never finish TLoU, to be honest).

@HaveAll3 below: Yeah, it is a beautiful looking game. With SSO, MCC, and this, I'm very tempted to pick up an XBO this Holiday Season.

Yetter3472d ago

The TV show is cutscenes included in the game.

HaveAll33472d ago

Yea the game looks so good! Can't wait!!! One of many good looking games coming out 2015, good time to be a gamer!!!

Automatic793472d ago

@kiwiViper

I was thinking the same thing I think March or April let third party titles shine in January and February then come in March with Quantum Break can't wait.

DevilOgreFish3472d ago

getting this day one for sure.

ABizzel13472d ago

When I first saw this I wasn't hooked, but I thought the technology was impressive.

Now that I've seen it again, I'm a bit more impressed with everything they're trying to do, and surprisingly the time platforming was what got me.

I enjoy Remedy games, so I'll be keeping an eye out for Quantum Break.

Nolando3471d ago

I enjoy some good platforming too, I hope there are more varied ways to engage an obstacle. not just one easy path I hope it gets more challenging but what they showed was awesome!

VegasDawg3471d ago

You people judging the game, this is pre Alpha footage shot before E-3. BUt go ahead and hate.

Magicite3471d ago

Gonna enjoy this when it comes to PC on max settings (enjoyed all Remedy games so far).

Foehammer3471d ago (Edited 3471d ago )

Except there is no word on whether MS will release it on PC

Unlike No Mans Sky, Planetside 2, H1Z1, etc, all on PC

christocolus3472d ago

I'm going into cryo sleep. Wake me up in 2015...a day before the release of this game.

KiwiViper853472d ago

Imagine the backlog of quality games you'd be waking up to.

PixelEnemy3472d ago (Edited 3472d ago )

It would be awesome to do that for 10 years and wake up to a huge backlog of amazing titles and find out who "won" the console war. Lol.

Automatic793472d ago

@ Chris

This game looks incredible Xbox keeps bringing the hits.

starchild3472d ago

This game does look very good, both gameplay wise and graphically.

OpieWinston3472d ago

That extra gameplay was soooo good...

I'm surprised a fly didn't go in my mouth while watching this.

christocolus3472d ago

Damn. That's some of the best graphics I've seen this gen. Remedy devs are wizards.

Lawboy23472d ago

agreed...man are we in for some treats in 2015...wow just wow

"I'm surprised a fly didn't go in my mouth while watching this."

Lol, that makes me think of the movie Kung Pow: Enter the Fist... Yeah though, it certainly does look rather impressive. I'll be interested in checking it out.

thenickel3471d ago

I'm going to need to check this Kung Pow out thanks.

OT: Wow, I'm really liking what I'm seeing.

Farmassy3471d ago

does anyone know if there will be more powers than the 2 they have shown off so far?

I am incredibly impressed by what I have seen but I was wondering how many powers will be in the final game

christocolus3472d ago

Awesome... Alan Wake2 running on this engine would be killer.

Great job Remedy. Great job.

OpieWinston3472d ago

The engine is called "Northlight".

So rather fitting for Alan Wakes environment.

thereapersson3472d ago

I agree, a new Alan Wake game would be just what I'm looking for!

starchild3472d ago

I would love an Alan Wake 2. The first one was such a great experience. I would just hope that they wouldn't leave us PC fans out in the cold.

15 Xbox Games That Should Make the Multiplatform Jump

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

Read Full Story >>
technabob.com
GamerRN40d ago

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit40d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead40d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica40d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL40d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit40d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

StormSnooper39d ago

More like MS begging to put their games on PlayStation.

TheEroica38d ago

Keep begging Sony gamers!

Friendlygamer40d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit40d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer40d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit40d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff218340d ago (Edited 40d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer40d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff218340d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper39d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal40d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood40d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff218340d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde40d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.

Now that Remedy owns Control, it’s time to reclaim Quantum Break

Alan Wake 2 studio Remedy Entertainment has reclaimed the rights to Control, and now sci-fi hit Quantum Break deserves the same treatment.

Petebloodyonion56d ago

Totally agree with that especially when Quantum Break has several references to Alan Wake and Alan Wake make allusions to QB.
I do believe that MS and Remedy can work things out and MS has usually been nice to devs and publishers regarding IP.

Obscure_Observer56d ago

They can't "reclaim" what was never theirs.

Petebloodyonion56d ago

I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP.

Lightning7756d ago

MS is not doin anything with it. Plus they're doing a multiverse of their own so Remedy needs the IP.

If MS wants to have exclusive let it be timed for 6 months then go to other platforms. MS seems to be, let's say, generous with some if their games as of late.

Or have QB2 be multiplat from the jump, put it on GP. Keeping QB2 as an exclusive is kinda weird these days.

Obscure_Observer56d ago (Edited 56d ago )

@Petebloodyonion

"I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP."

Good luck

@Lightning77

"MS is not doin anything with it."

Japan Studio is dead nd Sony isn´t doing anything with Bloodborne either! Yet I can 100% guarantee that there´s a far bigger demand for a sequel, remake or even a remaster for that game from both PS5 and PC gamers.

That been said, why don´t you ask Sony tol sell the IP to Fromsoftware now that according to rumors, they bought Elden Ring from Bandai?

ZwVw56d ago (Edited 56d ago )

Reclaim? That would mean that they actually owned the ip at one point, which they never did (MS always has). Apples & oranges. Remedy always owned the Control ip (just not the publishing), as they have with Alan Wake.

About as likely as them getting the Max Payne rights from Rockstar.

mastershredder56d ago (Edited 56d ago )

Sending you game to a publisher does not mean they get "rights to own it " unless that was part of the contract (monetary/ strategic reasons). 505 was the publisher they worked with to publish and distribute it, it dos not mean that 505 flat out "owned" anything, clearly they did have a special arrangement that made them open to limit their publishing rights. and so here we are and big whoop

Jingsing56d ago (Edited 56d ago )

Yeah get Quantum Break PS5, only if you put it on disc with all the associated movie material.

isarai56d ago

I mean they got the Alan Wake IP back from MS, so I feel like they could get QB back as well

15 Games That Like to Play With Your Mind

GB: "Some games reduce stress while others like to play with your mind."

banger88354d ago

15 games on FIFTEEN pages? That's a NO from me.

Superliminal
Antichamber
Manifold Garden
Portal & Portal 2
The Stanley Parable
Monument Valley
Gorogoa
Thumper
Inscryption
Q.U.B.E. 2
Darq
Quantum Break
Perspective
Inside
The Swapper

IamTylerDurden1353d ago (Edited 353d ago )

I think Inscryption is the best game on that list. PT and Returnal i would offer. Returnal deserves a spot over some of the listed games. Especially after chapter 3. Maybe even Alice MR? Death Stranding? Kojima all together. To much smaller degree Dead Space. I'm spitballing.

I didn't play Thumper enough to see beyond the visual spectacle. Curious choice.

SullysCigar353d ago (Edited 353d ago )

I'd add FEAR and RE7 (when Ethan starts getting visions, especially in the boat) to that list.

Edit: and Here They Lie

Petebloodyonion352d ago

What no Eternal Darkness on the list?

BrainSyphoned352d ago

Only makes me think of gatcha loot crate game specifically built to play your mind into becoming an addict.
