Quantum Theory (PlayStation 3)

The Japanese Gears of War

The Good
I don't know how I like this game enough to beat it, But I did. The art style is great. An art Nouveau organic life style that was cool. A story, while not groundbreaking, had me engaged from the start, and I also like to duo of Syd and Filena. There were a lot of different weapons that were fun to use as well. The tag team attack when you throw your partner was satisfying to pull off. The shifting organic tower this takes place in is also cool, while very hard to fight in when it does shifts and you're flying on it. Also this is a Gears of Wars clone. Which is a good thing.

The Bad
The gameplay is definitely the weakest part of the game. The aiming is pretty bad, the melee attacks are so hard to pull off you might as well not even try. Unfair platformer sections and checkpoints, and to top it all off incorrect controller inputs when I do some of my actions (maybe my controller is going bad, but I need to test it with other games.)

The Bottom Line
It would be hard to recommend a game with so many issues, but if you find it for super cheap, check it out. I'm glad I did.
