Ranking Every Quantic Dream Game From Worst To Best

5. Omikron: The Nomad Soul (1999)

Unless you are a diehard David Bowie fan, this first effort by Cage and Quantic Dream has likely not registered on your radar - and is the only venture from them not in the ‘interactive movie’ mould. Instead, Omikron is a messy blend of every genre that was popular back in 1999.

First the good though; it is bursting with exciting concepts and plot points, with its cyber-punk open-world vibrantly filled with rich lore. The plot itself has enough cool twists and turns as well, with some radical breaking-the-fourth-wall mechanics that are impressive for its time.

Now, the bad; the beyond dated graphics and controls are a given - but the shoehorning of FPS and combat fighter segments are random and handle absolutely atrocious. Also, like many Cage games, the enthusiasm for his ideas are not paid off in a satisfactory and competent fashion.

It really must be said though, the late and great Bowie not only composed the stellar soundtrack but also helped build the story and world elements, plus voiced acted two characters. If you're a completist of the late artist, the game is a must - at least, for curiosity sake.
