Control is an exciting game for many reasons. For starters, there is the game's strange, yet thrilling, story, next, there is the game's refusal to comply with common game design rules; and finally, there is the game's graphics. Unlike most modern gam...

If you've been reading along with us and didn't just skip to the end you've seen a common thread through this game. First of all, Remedy did a masterful job of creating an engrossing world that looks outstanding with all of the hardware-assisted ray tracing...

The Oldest House is Remedy's greatest and most original setting yet, The Metroidvaniainspired design provides freedom to roam the Oldest House, It's one of the finest examples of realtime ray tracing to date (on PC), Combat feels awesome thanks to compete

Control features Remedy's most original setting yet, the studio's most open-ended game environment yet and great action combat that makes you feel like a badass. The game also stands out on PC as one of the finest examples of real-time ray tracing to date...
Control is an interesting title and it's definitely unique from others out there. It can easily be described as an absolute mind****, but in a good way. It doesn't quite reach the levels of Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem with the mental manipulation...
