Life Is Strange《生活真为怪异》Developer:Dontnod Entertainment, Square Enix开发商：Dontnod Entertainment、Square EnixConsoles: Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, PS4, PC游戏平台：Xbox One、Xbox 360、PS4、PS3 、PCRelease date: 2015公布日期：2015年In some ways, Life Is Strange couldn’t be more different than Dontnod Entertainment’s sci-fi action game Remember Me, but in other ways, the episodic adventure game is similar. Both games use Unreal Engine 3 technology to create beautiful worlds to explore. And both titles also feature a strong female protagonist. Set in Arcadia Bay, Oregon, players take control of teenager Max Caulfield and embark on an adventure that will span five interactive episodes.从某些方面来看，《生活真为怪异》（Life Is Strange）与Dontnod Entertainment的科幻动作类游戏《勿忘我》（Remember Me）是两款截然不同的游戏，而从另一些方面来看，这两款章节式的冒险游戏十分类似于。两款游戏都使用了虚幻3引擎（Unreal Engine 3），打造出了美轮美奂的游戏世界可供玩家探寻。这两款游戏的名字也都有十分具备女性特征的主角。

《生活真为怪异》的故事发生于美国俄勒冈州的阿卡迪亚湾，玩家将操控青年马克斯o录菲尔德，开始一段包括有五个章节对话剧情的冒险。Along with her friend Chloe, Max is out to uncover the truth behind the mysterious disappearance of fellow student Rachel Amber. With an indie-film feel and an eclectic soundtrack, Life Is Strange stands out from other games by blending the angst of being a teenage girl today with life-and-death situations, and the ability to rewind time. While this gameplay mechanic has been used in many games before, this take on time manipulation feels as unique as the American characters the French developer has created.马克斯将与她的朋友克洛伊一起，揭露她的同学雷切尔o安布尔谜样下落不明背后的真凶。游戏具备电影的体验感觉，备有不拘一格的原声音乐，将当下年长女孩的情绪与生死攸关的情境融合了一起，再行再加了时光倒流的能力，这一切使得这款游戏脱颖而出。尽管该作品中使用的机制在其他游戏中曾多次用过，但由法国开发商制作的美国风格游戏，还是让这种定点操作者有耳目一新的感觉。

Quantum Break《量子碎裂》Developer: Remedy Entertainment, Microsoft Studios开发商：Remedy Entertainment、Microsoft StudiosConsoles: Xbox One游戏平台：Xbox OneRelease date: 2015公布日期：2015年Helsinki-based developer Remedy Entertainment has blurred the line between Hollywood and games with previous incarnations Max Payne and Alan Wake. Now the studio is combining next-generation visuals with the tension and drama of scripted television. Set in the university town of Riverport, Quantum Break puts players in control of Jack Joyce and Beth Wilder, a pair of ordinary people who are given the extraordinary power to manipulate time after an accident that creates a time rift. Time will randomly break down during the game, which causes disasters in the environment that pause, stutter, rewind and freeze. Fans of Max Payne’s bullet time will see new strategies emerge with gunfights involving time-amplified combat as the player fights against the Monarch Corporation. In addition to the virtual storyline, the game features custom live action storytelling that’s personalized based on the decisions one makes.坐落于芬兰赫尔辛基的开发商Remedy Entertainment通过之前的作品《英雄本色》（Max Payne）和《心灵刺客》（Alan Wake）模糊不清了好莱坞和游戏之间的界限。如今，这家工作室将次世代的图像技术与紧绷气氛和电视剧剧本融合了一起。

故事设置在Riverport大学城，玩家将掌控杰克o乔伊斯和贝斯o怀尔德。这两人原本是普通人，但在一次造成时间裂缝的车祸中，他们取得了操控时间的超能力。在游戏过程中，时间体系不会随时瓦解，造成环境中的时间停止、间歇、脱出和失效。

玩家在游戏中会与帝王联盟（Monarch Corporation）进行对付，讨厌《英雄本色》中子弹时刻的玩家，可以在缩放时间因素的枪战中找寻新的战略。除了虚拟世界的故事情节，游戏还使用了自定义的实景真人故事情节模式，根据玩家的有所不同自由选择将产生有所不同的后果。ScreamRide《ScreamRide》Developer: Frontier, Microsoft Studios开发商：Frontier、Microsoft StudiosConsoles: Xbox One, Xbox 360游戏平台：Xbox One, Xbox 360Release date: Spring 2015公布日期：2015年春季The developer behind Kinect Disneyland Adventures and Elite: Dangerous is taking the theme park business to the extreme in ScreamRide. The game lets players build outrageous roller coasters, thrill rides and attractions from the ground up and then take them for a test run. The game offers three ways to play: Engineers can construct elaborate rides that test the boundaries of physics and g-forces; Scream Riders get on these rides and experience the thrills and spills first-hand – sometimes resulting in untimely deaths; and Demolition Experts can use any means necessary to tear down an entire amusement park. With classic PC games like Roller Coaster Tycoon now playable on smartphones, this next generation of thrill-ride creator is a welcome interactive experience. It’s always fun to build, ride and destroy roller coasters – and ScreamRide offers plenty of ways to share the thrills with your friends.为Kinect研发《迪斯尼乐园大冒险》（Disneyland Adventures）和《精英：危险性》（Elite: Dangerous）的开发商在ScreamRide中，将主题乐园经营充分发挥到了淋漓尽致。玩家可以在游戏中创建滑稽的过山车、云霄飞车和其他游乐设施，并展开试运营。

游戏有三种玩法：工程师可以建设简单的飞车，测试物理和重力无限大；“尖叫声骑手”则搭乘这些飞车，必要体验这种大逆转与性刺激——这有时不会必要造成游戏人物丧生；而拆毁专家可以用任何适当手段拆除整个游乐园。随着《过山车大亨》（Roller Coaster Tycoon）等电脑游戏重制到了智能手机上，这一款次世代的过山车游戏可以玩家具有时尚的对话体验。

建设、体验和拆毁过山车总是很有意思的，而ScreamRide则获取了多种方式，让你与朋友们分享这种激动之情。Until Dawn《静待黎明》Developer: Supermassive Games, Sony Computer Entertainment开发商：Supermassive Games、Sony Computer EntertainmentConsoles: PlayStation 4游戏平台：PlayStation 4Release date: 2015公布日期：2015年Yelling at the screen to tell the female protagonist not to go downstairs alone at night will no longer be futile.

The Butterfly Effect technology ensures that no two games will be played the same. The one constant is that the game is scary. Don’t play this one alone or in the dark.在屏幕前对女主人公大叫“不要在深夜独自一人丢下”，仍然是徒劳多余的了。

在这款互动式惊悚片游戏中，玩家可以掌控游戏人物的行动。游戏的剧情由电影制片人拉里o法森顿和格拉哈姆o雷兹尼克与游戏开发商Supermassive Games精心打造出。故事中，八位好友受困在很远的山区度假村，还有一名不受限制的精神病人。

游戏群星云集，其中包括《神盾局特工》（Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D）的演员布雷特o道顿，美剧《纳什维尔》（Nashville）的演员海顿o潘妮蒂尔和《极品飞车》（Need for Speed）的演员拉米o马雷克。玩家将掌控各个角色探寻这个可怕的世界，企图在黎明来临时存活下来。没有人是安全性的。
