Wired: Hands On: Quantum Theory Doesn't Demo Well

Daniel Feit Writes:

Indeed, at first glance it's an extremely similar take on Gears of War: The title character Syd is a burly man wearing heavy armor and carrying a gun larger than the average Rottweiler. What makes things different and oh-so-Japanese is the presence of his partner, a lithe female named Filena who carries a petite handgun but makes up for it by being magical. She also sports a sword for powerful close-quarters combat. Although capable of independent action, she can be summoned at will and thrown across the room like a javelin. The two characters also have a "combination attack" that is potentially quite devastating.

Wired is obviously a bunch of 360 fanboys. Quantum Theory will be one of the greatest games of all time. Anybody who says differently is delusional 360 fanboy.

Tr3y 4 Life.

The PS3 has been sent down from heaven to free us from the torturous existence the Xbox 360 has created. Lord PS3 is the last hope for humanity.

MGOelite6086d ago

you looks like a stupid idiot.

Fishy Fingers6086d ago

Guess that would make me a delusional 360 fanboy. But then I'm renowned for it.

Look's fun, but "greatest games of all time", doubt that.

XxSolid SnakexX6086d ago

dude seriously are you crazy because how can it be the greatest game of all time if you probably haven't played it and i think the guy at wired isn't lying i think he was giving his honest opinion i prefer my ps3 but have you been brainwashed or something because human beings don't act like this so cut it out i'd be surprised if you were a grown ass man than i would really feel bad for you.

2FootYard6086d ago

The PS3 is the greatest thing ever! Every game on the PS3 deserves a 21 out of 20 just for being on a blu-ray disc.

WMW6086d ago

*shakes head*
360 fanboys are unbelievably sad people ghost-mutation i bet your parents regret having you more then anything else.

2FootYard6086d ago

Yeah, my parents are deeply disturbed by my opinions regarding video games. My crack addiction was okay but as soon as I came out and said I was a PS3 fan I was kicked out of the house.

WMW6086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

no they regret having you because of how serious you take gaming come on kid look how stupid your post are why don't you go outside for awhile and see the real world loser.

2FootYard6086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

Lol take it easy. Check out my comment history and see how seriously I take video games.

Its kind of fun getting under peoples skin with stupid jokes.

deadreckoning6666086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

Honestly, this game isn't even on my radar. After playing the Lost Planet 2 demo on PSN, its lookin to be the best co-op shooter ever, next to Left 4 Dead of course.

But really, coming from a PS3 owner, it doesn't look good.

Filet of Children6086d ago

Best troll I've seen today.

I'll be honest, I doubted your potential when I first read it... but then you got bites, so you showed me ;)

Marceles6086d ago

A little bit too much analysis over this early demo.

"Why is the AI stupid??", it's something that can always be worked on. Some games like to still ship with dumb AI, but hey..that gets ignored depending on how fun the game is.

"Why is the turret still shooting me when I'm behind cover?? Why am I shooting back at them??? What's going on??? Why is there random violence???"

Dude, since there was a staff guy standing right there telling you what to do in the demo, why didn't you ask him this stuff? Oh..because he would've said "it's a demo, it's not the full game yet so be patient and wait for the full game". But that would've been too easy.

HolyOrangeCows6086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

This game looks like a ripoff.

lordgodalming6086d ago

I get what you're trying to do, Ghostie, but to be honest it comes off a little strange. Anyway, Quantum Theory will most likely not be part of my growing PS3 library. The art design and what little gameplay they've shown are simply too generic to be interesting.

shadow27976086d ago

"1.8 - you guys do realize
ghost is being funny? "

That's debatable.

I don't believe you.....either you are a 360 fan in disguise, or you are a fool. maybe you are trying to give the true ps3 fans a bad name. either way something is up with you.

Christopher6086d ago

A poor quality Tecmo game? Who'd-a-thunkit?

prabx6086d ago

So Gears Of War (which isnt really unique) can be really good, and Quantum Theory (according to Wired, a ripoff) cant be a good game because its "copying" Gears Of War? WOW. Just WOW.

thorstein6086d ago

They are out of touch with the current household and the ability to understand that many, many gamers own both an Xbox 360 AND a PS3. Or a variation of the older and newer consoles.

Wired = irrelevant so they make up some BS about something in order to spark controversy and free exposure of their crap mag.

bjornbear6086d ago

He's obv a 360 fanboy acting like a Sony fanboy...seriously, he's making a satire out of PS3 fanboys...use your brains people

MNicholas6086d ago

but still rather like a UE3 game. Then again, that's probably what it's supposed to look like.

The scale of the environments and, more importantly, the possibility of a co-op campaign, looks promising. Looking forward to more information.

ThanatosDMC6086d ago

I really want this game to fail because it's such an obvious ripoff of Gears.

ReservoirDog3166086d ago

Stand up, go outside, take a deep breathe and please calm down.

And people say drugs aren't bad for you...

Silly gameAr6086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

I got my eye on this game.

likedamaster6086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

Good stuff Ghost, hopefully they'll get it the next time they're blatantly mocked.

On topic/
They should name this Gears of War: Alternative Edition. Rofl

Bodyboarder_VGamer6086d ago

A satire? I think you meant trolling...

MasterBlaster6086d ago

Are you trying to get banned again? Didn't you say your life was over last time it happened?

Odin7776086d ago

I know ghost personally...And I have to break it to you, he's actually playing all of you like fools. Dance puppets!

Damn, i wish my wife could be summoned at will :(

devilhunterx6086d ago

I also wish your wife could be summoned at will :)

kaveti66166086d ago

Wait your turn, devilhunter. :P

George Sears6086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

I can't stand the horrible art style from this game. Not to mention that the characters look like freaking walking corpses.

happyface6086d ago

stop being bias like wired is

this ps triple exclusive will be amazing and far better than gears

lordgodalming6086d ago

@happy

It's okay that the PS3 doesn't have Gears. Do like me and buy Uncharted 2 in two weeks. Just don't bank on Quantum being awesome. Maybe Tecmo will prove me wrong, but from the footage so far, they've got a lot of work ahead of them if this game is to be anything but average.

Rumor6086d ago

i kinda agree, and the voice acting is soo overdone. i played gears for the first time yesterday, and i had a fukn blast!!! expectations are set high on this game tecmo....

Double Toasted6086d ago

you funny f*^k, you made milk come out of my nose....

Anyway, I haven't heard or read about anyone bringing this game to Cliff B's attention. I wonder what Cliff thinks. I have a feeling my question will go "viral" here on the webs...

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.

Bigpappy4589d 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.

fOrlOnhOpe574589d ago

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

SyphonELITE4589d ago

damn, i never even heard of this game til now

Yui_Suzumiya4589d 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_7774588d ago

Never played it, never will -_-
