To be fair, they gave it a 2/5. But yeah this is def an outlier.

Anyone have any idea on how long this game is? This was going to be a "wait until it's $30" type of game, but these reviews have me changing my mind.
Really strange considering everyone else is giving it 7 at the very least.
Seems to be 8~10 hours just for the main story, 20 hours for 100%.
And we have our main focus of discussion for the next 5 pages.
Gonna pre-order when I get home, the release date totally went under my radar. So excited.
Mine's here - I gave it an 8. https://wccftech.com/review/control-full-on-paranatural-remedy-metroidvania-action/
Here's my review - I gave it 4/5!
It's not perfect but I had a great time with it. Combat is an absolute blast particularly thanks to some seriously physics. Story is weird and intriguing throughout but didn't quite deliver the pay off I was hoping for.
Overall definitely worth a buy!

Apparently there was some time zone confusion in the embargo emails.

Good scores so far, I'll be picking the game up.
Here comes 20 pages of arguing over this score...
Great reviews otherwise, shame about some of the performance issues on the base consoles though but that's nothing new these days.
Sure, but I am not going to buy a new PS4 Pro when in a bit more than a year the PS5 comes out.
73 is my prediction, saw an unofficial «review» on Youtube from a guy who got an early copy. He mentioned the same flaws that were in QB as in Control.
Interested to see how this turns out. The game just looks so flat and bland to me, and I like Remedy's stuff.
Oh I meant the time is now 9am ET, didn't know that it said PT in the embargo thing.
Apart from every outlet being hacked and changing the scores, I think the 84 is pretty solid, give or take a point :P
I'm not sure how their videogame division is, but WGTC for movies is absolutely awful.
Is that a sentence in that review? If one thing is clear with even the trailer is that the atmosphere is great.
We can argue on everything else, but The Oldest House is one of the most interesting places in gaming.
