1UP: Quantum Theory Preview

1UP writes: "It's hard not to compare Quantum Theory to Gears of Wars. After all, on first glance, everything from the environments, to the enemies, and even the main character design, has me feeling like I'm looking at Marcus Fenix taking out Locusts through some sort of "Japanese-aesthetics" goggles. But I have to admit, that doesn't exactly have to be a terrible thing. And Gears of War doesn't allow me to heave a lanky silver-haired woman toward my enemies -- which is exactly what Quantum Theory lets me do via a special combination move that main character Syd performs with his silver haired sometimes-ally."

Wait Press "A" to sprint? Since when does my PS3 controller have and "A" button? I think 1UP is confused about what controller they are holding when they where playing the game.

A in japanese is X

....im lying

Mr Tretton6002d ago

Man, that looks like crap. Look at the terrible 'AI', there isn't any.

LiquifiedArt6002d ago

What gets me crazy is the fact the developer said there wouldn't be any coop. That it was a single player experience!!

The thing that made Gears even Remotely fun was (drum roll) COOPERATIVE PLAY!

Thoreau6002d ago

"Gameplay-wise, Quantum Theory currently controls as expected: hold A to sprint, press A to stick onto cover or to vault over cover, hold left trigger to look down the scope, and right trigger pulls the, well, trigger. The main character also has a deadly special melee attack mapped to the X button -- when whenever I get close to an enemy, I just press X to jab foes with some sort of magical fist attack, 1up.com"

do they like xbox that much?

RAM MAGNUMS6002d ago

Some one has to remind these game sites that new ps3 owners dont have xbox 360 and do not care for one.
quit mentioning xbox360, gears, halo and xbox live in anything Ps3 related and you want a have the fanboys like me bashing ya dumb a$$.

Every battle royale and soulslike. Every cartoony live service game with dancing

Nah most of the Soulslike games turned out pretty good. Probably the only one I didn't much like was Immortal Unchained.

I don't care what this guy think after he called Way of The Samurai 3 an awful game.

Bigpappy4502d ago

with Quantum Theory, I played the demo and was not impressed. I felt like they were trying to mix Gear of War with Lost Planet, and didn't do either very well. May be someone who never played either would have a blast with it though.

fOrlOnhOpe574502d ago

Yeah, I played the demo too but couldn't finish it....the thought of therapy was too much lol

SyphonELITE4502d ago

damn, i never even heard of this game til now

Yui_Suzumiya4502d ago

I followed this game forever until I finally came out. I got it and loved every bit of it. Originally supposed to be a PS3 exclusive. It got horrible reviews and I didn't understand any of them. They must've been playing a different game then me!

Spore_7774501d ago

Never played it, never will -_-
