18 Hugely Anticipated Video Games That Must Be At E3 2015

6. Quantum Break

Developers Remedy have been away the whole 'dudes in trench coats' aesthetic for too long, as firstly Max Payne single-handedly gave everyone the Matrix-style bullet-dodging experience they were crying out for back in 2001, only for a spectacular sequel to do it again and Twin Peaks-influenced Alan Wake to bring the horror thrills in 2010. Since then they've been relatively quiet - save for some DLC for Mr. Wake - and then last year we found out why; they're developing a full TV series to go alongside this newest time-bending tale, apparently telling both sides of the story at any point depending on if you want to play or watch a particular character's perspective.
It's a very neat idea, and when the gameplay itself seems to be a return to the more gung-ho sensibilities of the first two 'Payne titles - and the fact your character will be freezing time during set-pieces and exploring things like wreckage an debris as it hangs in mid-air, this could have all the right signature elements to be another fantastic franchise-starter.
