Quantum Theory Won't Be A PS3 Exclusive
That's right folks. Tecmo has been working on a game called Quantum Theory, a third-person shooter copycat of Gears of War. The game was going to be a PS3 exclusive only, and it would have been a prime jab to the 360 library, all while Team Tachyon producer Kohei Shibata made claims that "Simply, it's the most powerful hardware." But, a disappointing bash toward 360 seemed to mean nothing when they decided to make it exclusive to the 360 as well. Unfortunately, the producer had nothing to say this time, but the move to 360 can be considered obvious, since shooter tend to fare better on the 360. It is also known for its quality when playing Unreal Engine games, like Gears of War and Unreal Tournament III, and has been known for the best shooters around. Do you think the switch was based on how shooters sell on the 360? Does this lower the value of the game to PS3 owners? Will anyone really want it if it's completely similar to Gears of War on the 360? Here's some evidence in case it didn't satisfy your appetite.
Here's a link to the information, as well as a video:
Who cares. Now everyone gets to play it.
Ill buy it
Even if it is pretty similiar to Gears of Wars
Gee, yet another alleged 3rd party exclusive title that's turned out to be multiplatform. I know I'm shocked.
@ Ben Deckert- I want to know how does Quantum Theory copy Gears of War? By the way the video was very entertaining and was much needed enjoyment.
Game looks like crap anyways...a blatant sub-par Gears rip off...I wish the PS3 would've kept this one to its self...lol
@ Grim Lord - If you haven't seen an actual gameplay trailer for it, then try this one.

Other than the fact that it's way more sci-fi than Gears and somewhat reminiscent of Prince of Persia in some cases, the gameplay is totally consistent with Gears of War standards. Even G4 and PS3 have milked it and claimed it as the one to bring down Gears of War, until now. The game is a good copy of Gears of War if you check out the trailers.
Looks awsome hopefully it will have sweet multiplayer
@ Ben Deckert- You are absolutely right. Quantum Theory does bear a strong resemblance in terms of character design and gameplay. If Quantum Theory does become an exclusive title, then whichever console recieves the title will have a great advantage over the other consoles.
i could care less if its exclusive i want to know will have online multiplayer.
