Oh... I got my day wrong. So uh, y'all didn't *see* that review? Let's forget that happened until the embargo actually breaks.

Quick prediction!

77 MC.

After Division getting 80 (well there is still change to reach 79) I will go with 83 for QB.

[Aura7541]

I predict 84 MC

[Dr. Pezus]

84 for me too. Remedy really likes that

When it comes to review scores, I don't bother betting against you.

I think the TV show aspect is going to bring scores down.

Non gamey games have been having issues with reviews as of late imo.

Especially if those TV episode breaks in the game really are 25 minutes a shot.

[DerNebel]

I'm just gonna take the high bet and say 85

[Mmm_fish_tacos]

I'll take 80

+

Creative gameplay with the time abilities, player choice that does affect the game, and an incredibly deep story that really does close the plot-holes that time travel naturally produces.

-

Players will feel like they're doing more watching the game instead of playing due to the episodes and cut scenes and excessive use of mo-cap creates constant green-screen effects between characters and environments.

"Quantum Break is another example of Remedy Entertainment sticking to what they know, and doing it better than anyone else. An engrossing adventure with a captivating story. experimentation with new mediums for telling stories in games and refined third-person gameplay to match. Quantum Break isn't optional, it's essential."

My review is up:

Gadgets 360 - 8/10: http://gadgets.ndtv.com/games/reviews/quantum-break-review-820521

"With astounding production values, powerful story-telling, and rewarding combat, Quantum Break is a stellar game. But due to an underdeveloped upgrade system and poorly thought out content delivery that demands heavy bandwidth, it isn't exactly a game we can recommend to everyone wholeheartedly. Make no mistake though, if you have the means to play it as it was meant to be, it's worth experiencing. "

9/10 from Stevivor.

"All in all, Quantum Break has a lot more to offer than I would have expected: a strong, branching story with a definite opening to continue, solid gunplay and time manipulation mechanics, a stellar cast and a good reason to replay."
