Presentation
Nothing about Quantum Theory’s presentation is unique or interesting. The menus are ugly, the fonts are boring, and the whole game has a very “budget” feel to it.
3.5
Graphics
This game is ugly as hell. The environments look like a series of places where aliens vomited on the wall, and the characters are super-clichéd looking.
3.5
Sound
The music isn’t offensive, but the voice acting is. The gruff and tough lead character sounds like, and has all the charm of, a frat house idiot.
2.5
Gameplay
Terrible level design, wonky shooting, boring weapons, and even more boring enemies are just a few of this game’s host of problems.
2.0
Lasting Appeal
This game shouldn’t be played through once, not to mention twice.

Closing Comments
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.
