Looking pretty good, though I still have no idea what the game is.

Developed exclusively for Xbox One, Quantum Break blurs the line between television and gameplay, integrating the two into one seamless, uniquely immersive experience. From Remedy Entertainment, the critically-acclaimed creators of Alan Wake and Max Payne comes a revolutionary entertainment experience that weaves the cinematic action of intense gameplay with the tension and drama of scripted television, creating a world where each has a direct impact on the other.

In Quantum Break, our desperate hero fights a highly personal battle to save the future before time literally runs out. As time breaks down, impossible, split second moments of destruction turn into epic stages of time powered action. The actions you take, and the choices you make, shape your experience as the narrative unfolds. As you play, a personalized ‘director’s cut’ of the show is created just for you, based on the decisions you make during the game.

Quantum Break will lead the new generation of interactive entertainment, as the show and game deliver a holistic entertainment experience made possible only on Xbox One.

watch_dogs?

 

[xxracerxx]

Are all the big exclusives going to tie into television now? This and Halo give me that impression.

 

[raven777]

I don't know if its problem with screenshots, but the images look blurry with bad IQ

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

Can't say I'm impressed....

 

[FluxWaveZ]

watch_dogs?

Exactly what I thought of.

 

[kodt]

Also coming to PC in 2015. Vista 2 Exclusive

 

[specialguy]

does look not disappointing for once for a next gen game.

probably helps a lot to be ground up next gen then.

 

[Pandemic]

The moment that boat went through the bridge is what got me focused on the game.

 

[Smutpeddler]

Looks good, but I will wait for more details.

I was hoping for Alan Wake 2

 

[Proelite]

Looks like the same engine used by infamous 2.

 

[iceatcs]

That's look different as night and day than COD:Ghost. It should have use this one.

Can't wait what it really like on E3 then.

 

[nib95]

Looks good imo. Not omfg blow me away, but still pretty.

 

[Resilient]

Only title I am mildly interested in.

 

[Dead Prince]

There's something about the look of this along with the EA titles that is weird. doesn't really look next gen. it needs that next gen bloom

 

[specialguy]

Looks good, but I will wait for more details.

I was hoping for Alan Wake 2

"want more original ip's fucking damnit"

"meh, not the sequel I wanted"

 

[DopeyFish]

so its a tv show... game...?

like there's pre-recorded TV sequences that play out as the game plays out? different possibilities etc

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Not Alan Wake 2. Not impressed.

 

[specialguy]

I don't know if its problem with screenshots, but the images look blurry with bad IQ

err, do you mean the depth of field?

 

[Amir0x]

Definitely sounds like a cool idea. One of the main reasons I got a Xbox 360 was because of Alan Wake. That definitely didn't work out for me last time, because that game was gross-bad, but I think I'm being saved the trouble of anticipating this go around by how bad Xbox One is.

Still, will watch to see how it turns out.

 

[Volotaire]

Remedy has got me interested, need more info on the game really.

 

[AniHawk]

i'm not so sure about this new tv fad

 

[Cidd]

And some say KZ Shadow fall wasn't impressive?

This looks like any multiplatform game running on medium settings on my PC. Bioshock infinite looks better already.

 

[Salsa]

lookin generic as fuck

but it wont be, and it doesnt sound it from the description, cause it's Remedy

the episodic stuff makes me think of Alan Wake anyway, just less linear

either way, not looking forward to that year-long gap or so for the PC release. Ugh

 

[Rodney McKay]

A highly personal battle... to save all of time and space from imploding and destroying the UNIVERSE!!!

 

[Sapphire Dreams]

I was hoping for more Alan Wake

 

[AppleMIX]

This is literally the only thing that got me excited during the conference.

 

[Portugeezer]

Not sure what to make of it.

 

[Htown]

Why does Microsoft think gamers love television?

Aren't TV networks always talking about how they're bleeding viewers, losing them to TV and video games?

 

[Orca]

So there's a brief (relatively speaking I guess, seems like it uses slowed down time) moment of action and some kind of in-game decisions to make...who to save, things like that...then it cuts to a live action show that plays out to the next action, reflecting the choices you made or your performance?

Edit - actually rereading it, it kind of sounds like you play through the game and THEN there's a show based on those actions. That's less interesting to me.

 

[Shahadan]

Defiance was the prophet. We didn't believe in it so we get our punishment.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

I mean, visually it looks good, and I liked Alan Wake..so Im interested.

 

[clutch.as.it.gets.]

I don't know if its problem with screenshots, but the images look blurry with bad IQ

Looks like FXAA.

 

[Striek]

Looks nice. I hope it looks this clean in actual gameplay, not confident though.

 

[BloodMoney]

bullshots

 

[ironcreed]

If you told me it was on the 360, I would believe it.

 

[RdN]

After Alan Wake I'm very interested in what they have to show.

A lot of angry people complaining about it being Xbox One exclusive in their forums, though.

 

[Tenrius]

It's probably a TPS with bullet time and live action cutscenes.

 

[Redhood]

Looks good! The live trailer was so close to beyond two souls though!

 

[Dan]

I feel like I've traveled back to the mid 90s with all this talk of merging gaming and live-action TV sequences.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

Looks hot but not really interested in the TV aspect.

 

[sflufan]

I'm pretty sure I can wait for Remedy's self-published PC version.

 

[Anticitizen One]

Xbox One marks the glorious return of the FMV

 

[Whompa]

literally the only thing remotely interesting from the entire conference. Would like to actually see gameplay though...because right now cgi means nothing.

 

[Community Forum]

I welcome a return to live-action cutscenes in videogames.

 

[RedBoot]

I feel like Remedy wants to be MS's Quantic Dream.

I don't think I like this.

 

[i-Lo]

Depth of field really adds to the scene (even CoD Ghost is using it).

 

[sixteen-bit]

Xbox One marks the glorious return of the FMV

And monochrome graphics

 

[Tenrius]

Xbox One marks the glorious return of the FMV

I just imagined a new Wing Commander 3 like game. A man can dream.

 

[Jawmuncher]

All I know is the Love Action Parts in the trailer did now flow well into the tiny bit of "gameplay" at all.
Actually they just made things worse.
