Not even shocked anymore.

Disappointing that Xbox won't get a 90 meta game. 

Really, meta is becoming more and more meaningless.

 

If you are disappointed that Xbox isn't getting that mind blowing exclusive, yeah, but meta certainly isn't the way to measure it. 

 

 

To the guy who quoted me, sarcasm dude

 

Did anyone on this thread that they think Meta is meaningful? 



Pocky Lover Boy!

Some if the reviews are pretty brutal - http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/quantum-break-review-remedys-latest-glossy-charmless-not-ambitious-it-seems-1552501

What may seem like an ambitious project is in the fact the combination of a standard third-person shooter and the kind of cheap sci-fi drama you might find in the darkest corners of Sky TV. Visually tepid and filled with abortive gunfights and platforming, Quantum Break also struggles to contain its plot, while at the same time underselling its characters. Remedy's previous games have been characterised by a distinctive tone and knowing humour. By comparison Quantum Break is a glossy, charmless, wholly moderate outing.

To be fair, there's only couple of reviews like this one and majority seems to suggest the opposite. I'm only worried about the ending since many reviewers were disappointed by it.

It is probably another of those 'nothing major gets resolved so we can set up a sequel' endings

Even that would be better than "we ran out of time and resources so we couldn't wrap things up like we wanted" endings.



Wow, Gamespot is real harsh.

Reviewers are saying about 10hours if you take time to read all the memos you can collect, ect.
Otherwise its around 8hours to beat.

10 hours including those live action videos.

Its 8hours includeing those videos... its only 10hours if you do some of the extra stuff (collectables ect).

Reviews are meh



Some more reviews

Darkstation - 3/5

NZGamer - 7/10

Wegotthiscovered - 4/5



It could have been worse though I was expecting at least 8 out 10. Really surprised by the meta so far.



I'm not surprised



Damn, expectations were high for this one I thought I was being mean with my '80' prediction. Well a couple good reviews as it may settle on 80
