Quantum Theory is a third-person shooter from Tecmo which is based around two characters named Syd and Fillena who must fight through a living tower. The game will feature a cover system similar to Gears of War, but with a unique spin in a way that the tower is living and thus constantly adding and taking away ideal cover locations.

Quantum Theory, at its core, is a cover-based third-person shooter which gives the player a fast-paced, fun, and sometimes addictive action adventure. Its countless similarities to Gears of War is closely showcased in both the gameplay and cover-based level design, which will put gamers in a far too similar experience.

Quantum Theory could have been a game that showed what a well respected and established Japanese publisher could do with the now tried and tested third-person shooter formula, but it fails on every level. It looks and feels terribly dated, has next to no creative spark, completely lacks imagination and is certain to be forgotten very quickly.

There is limited enjoyment to be had here, but it is far more faint that the echoes of Gears of War that resound throughout the game. The resulting tribute only illustrates just how much skill it takes to mould a handful of smart mechanics into a slick, enthralling journey, and how, just as Western developers are ill-advised to try to copy Japanese successes, the reverse is equally true.

There isn’t really a nice way to say this, but Quantum Theory is a huge let down. The game had some real promise with its dynamic cover system and a new take on melee combat. However, neither of these concepts were implemented fully and it means we’re left with a game that doesn’t even feel like it’s finished. Quantum Theory is a game that should be avoided.

Quantum Theory tries to do too much, but in the end it is nothing but a below average, extremely mediocre shooter.

Quantum Theory is bland, ugly, boring, shamelessly derived from Gears Of War and with very little in the way of redeeming features. We will warn you, and we will warn you once: do not bother with this game.

Quantum Theory is what would happen if Gears of War and Super Mario Bros. had a baby. A mewling, deformed, horrific baby that doctors would try to drown. It upsets me to tear this game apart, due to my being genuinely pleased with its opening chapters, but the game goes from passable to unforgivably dreadful with each passing stage until it gets to the point where even if Filena got her tits out at the end, it wouldn’t be worth the pain to get there.

Quantum Theory is a functional game, but that’s about the only thing that can be said about it. If this is what the developers at Tecmo-Koei think western gamers want out of a shooter then we need an intervention. Its uninspired level design, terrible shooting, and frustrating instant-kill portions make this a game that I simply couldn’t recommend to anyone at anytime. You only get one life to live, and Quantum Theory isn’t worth a moment of it.
