I am so excited for Quantum Break!

This game looks absolutely awesome. And I adore the mix of live-action TV show with a videogame! It’s amazing that this has not been done before (to this extent). I remember Alone in the Dark 2008 tried and massively failed at making it seem like a TV show.

This is the fullbore experience, and with such a high-quality cast of actors, I have hope that this game will go far.

This is a huge exclusive for Microsoft and the Xbox One. With how long the game has been delayed, I am sure it will be a massive success & be polished to the t by the time it hits next year.
