If you were to deduct "negative points" for slightly or in some cases blatantly rehashed stories, then ever other cinematic video game from Uncharted to MGS will be crucified.

On the surface, most games will seem like ripoffs. There are bound to be similarities with other movies and tv shows, and video games tend to be quite overt and unapologetic with their references (mgs).

So no, no deduction needed as it's pretty much a fact that without these movies, tv shows or books that came before, no video game you know and love would have been the same without it.

 

As for Quantum Break, this actually looks like Remedy 's least "borrowed" game, mainly because time bending isn't something that's explored in movies and such, except for time travel and superheroes who can bend time.
