That settles it:

  • Single Player Game
  • No Multiplayer (duh)
  • 720p Resolution
  • 30 Frames per Second
  • Simultaneous Launch with PC

There is not one single reason to buy the Xbox One version if you have a capable PC (imo).

"Pre-order Quantum Break for Xbox One in the Xbox Store, get it for free on Windows 10."

What you're saying isn't wrong, its just obvious many on the internet don't understand its a small percentage have a X1 and a high end gaming PC.

I'm disappointed by 720p, but objectively its also a great looking game.

I'm quite sure no-one has cancelled their pre-order over this 😁

Anyway, I like what DF is doing with these analyses but they do highlight the problem of some gamers being unable to judge things themselves.

Just a quick question: If the code for the PC version comes with the XB1 version, will that be seen as two sales or one?



 

The PS5 Exists.

Great question, one.

Doesn't really matter though. Digital numbers are rarely discussed.

I have to ask, did people commenting here actually watch that second vid where they talk about resolution and tech Remedy is using? There's some serious overreacting going on. Maybe OP should add more about it in first post? Just a suggestion.

I don't think it will be long before they are. The percentages are too great to ignore for much longer.

I'm sure it won't hurt the overall quality of the game, but there have been some conversations lately about whether the gap between the Xbox One and the PS4 has been shrinking, and it's obviously not. Comparing this to Uncharted 4 proves that.

Well, this game had never been listed in Amazon top100, and this news will not help X1 version sales..

Actually for about a day or more, Quantum Break has been in the top100 list on Amazon.

Right now its around #90.

I hear what you're saying... but most publishers don't want to discuss sales unless its a big number to boast about.

VGChartz is basically keeping track of how relevant retail still is.

Game looks amazing but people just care about a number LOL.

Reminds me of Killzone 6 and how it was "amazing" because the MP ran at native 1080p then we find out it wasn't native 1080p at all. Yet no one knew until these guys analyzed it. Apparently everyone's buying on PC anyway?

Considering how many times the flaws of bringing up the bolded in these threads have been pointed out to you, it's pretty silly that you still do so. I'll gladly re-explain it to you again though, if you've perhaps forgotten :p

Seriously, I can't determine the resolution by simply looking at the screen. Few can which is why we wait for DF to tell us. All we can see by looking at footage is this game has great graphics, so resolution isn't everything.

The KZ:SF multiplayer was praised for being 1080p and 60 fps. In reality is was neither, lots of pop in, etc.
