The --inspect --debug-brk option works from Node 6.3 through 7.x. The --inspect-brk option works from 7.6.0 through 8.x. --debug-brk was just removed: nodejs/node#12197. Hopefully it will be put back for backwards compatibility - nodejs/node#12364. Otherwise, VS Code 1.11 won't be able to debug Node 8 which is an issue.
