First of all, this is obviously a joke/troll thread.

Just played Quantum Theory just now. It reeks of mediocrity. The controls are clunky. The gunfights are boring. The graphics are muddy and bland (and disturbing to see). Even the cover system is half-a**ed compared to Gears. You can't switch from cover to cover smoothly. You'd think that since someone already thought about it, maybe these guys could have improved on it, but NO....they removed it.

jhcho2


There's also these weird amateur mistakes. Like, if you take cover near a weapon pickup, the prompt will make the cover prompt not appear. Or if you take cover behind the thing with the blue things on it, you can't press just L1 to lean out and aim, you have to hold the analog stick towards the edge first for some glitchy reason. Just basic god damn stuff that should've been caught way before they even thought of putting out a demo.

Oh and the game's bad. There's also that. At best it's a sometimes functional cover-based third person shooter. But I will say that the boss fight was alright at least, except for the part where the game gives you no feedback.

Also the graphics are really, really bad. Possibly the worst ever.

"Killing towers is my thing" should be the new "I've covered wars ya know." The dialogue in the demo was just so embarassing :lol:

Upparoom

That's the only bright spot. But unfortunately it's not a very big spot. They should've focused more on trying to make it ironically enjoyable.

Never heard of the game, but judging by that screenshot, the devs should be ashamed of themselves.

why ? it's not like gears is the inovator look at the N64 Gears stole the gameplay from "Winback"

as far as I saw from the demo and having played both gears I can tell that Quantom is a vast improvement, it's more polished and has better graphics.

the negative feedback comes because you all believe they stole the concept which gears stole from N64.

I just don't see how it looks better than Gears 2:

Everyone knows you're making things up in an attempt to get reactions. The jig is up. You can stop being silly.

I downloaded the demo and all I can say is amazing sure it plays like Gears of War but it's got it's own certain charm and I like the fact that you can hurl that girl at enemies.

the graphics are by far better than gears 2 and on par with gears 3

I would say that Gears has competition with this game and it's future sequels.

did anyone else experience the demo ?

I downloaded the demo after reading this thread, and it is bad. I would rate it a 5.5 to a 6.0. The shooting was not even fun to do, and I didnt care for the art design. I wouldnt even rent it. I didnt have a problem with the cover as some other posters said, moving from cover to cover is easy, you just have to roll with the O button.:? If the shooting was more enjoyable I could forgive the art design but it was not fun at all.

It's not "Sony's answer". It's a tecmo game and it's multiplat. I did enjoy the demo though. A mix of Final Fantasy and Gears. Liked it alot.

Wow, the game looks worse than I thought graphically.

I want to like the demo, but it's so flawed.

I agree with Winback and I'm glad people know about that game besides me here, but no way is that demo better than 2 games.

Polished? Better graphics? Gears did the basic things like cover even better than this game!

i decided to play the demo after seeing this thread and it was awful. TC must be out of his mind, the graphics are not even close to being on par with gears 1, the a.i. was awful, the cover system was awful, ect. im not even going to rent this game.

I was thinking more towards what the game looks like in terms of visuals...

Some of the colors are very bright and vibrant.

Huh, it was called more of a ripoff than MS's version of GOW, and why would MS support that?:P

I would agree but I am not sure if Uncharted and Gears are in the same genre if they were of course uncharted walks all over gears but uncharted is more of a puzzle solving action indiana jones/tomb raider type game while gears is a meaningless steroid using shooter which shares an uncanny resemblance to Quantom Theory which is why I place them in the same category. Quantom Theory is a mirror image of Gears except from what I have seen is more pleasant to the eyes.

That doesn't make much more sense, but ok.
