Control wins IGN's Game of the Year
- Thread starter Soulnado
- Start date
not so sure it's my game of the year (tho i loved it), but if this gets more people to check it out, hell yeah, i'm very happy. because it is a great, imaginative game that's well worth experiencing. congrats to remedy...
Exactly, I feel more like a Jedi in Control than Jedi Fallen Order LMAO. It even has mind control.
I love everything about this game, I'm a huge sucker for Remedy's style of lore, and the combat still manages to be the best part.
Absolutely can't agree with this.
oh it absolutely did. it has some of the best combat in recent memory. it's like a throwback to classic shooter design with a modern twist. so, so good. the world building was just icing on the cake. absolutely the best game this year
Wonderful video and a big thank you to Remedy for making such a great game. I love you all!
The combat is one of if not the best part of the game, especially once you unlock more abilities, it looks, controls and feels pretty awesome to play.
Yup ..it gets much better but GOTY nah...
still congrats to Remedy love the team seem like really cool ppl
The ground pound in this game is bonkers, it's less of a ground pound and more of a "Fuck everything in this area in particular" + Insane mobility tool. And yeah, I totally agree.The combat is one of if not the best part of the game, especially once you unlock more abilities, it looks, controls and feels pretty awesome to play.
Phenomenal game, absolutely deserving. It does push current generation hardware rather harder than it's capable of keeping up with, but the chaos and lighting effects are sublime. I can't wait to see if they update it for next-generation consoles, and what they have in mind next!
A great game that deserves it. I had a wonderful time with it. I felt like this title would go under the radar for almost winning everything. Good stuff Remedy.
So happy for the team! Fantastic game, definitely one of the best game experiences I've had this year. I still can't shake the feeling I had at the end after unlocking every ability... I honestly don't think I've ever played a game that made me feel like a god/superhero the way Control pulled it off. Also the lore and world is *chef kiss*. I could easily see myself eating up a whole tv series based on this IP.
It is my least recommended ability in the game. It completely drains your energy, leaving you wide open.
Imagine the Academy Awards only giving Best Picture to the highest grossing films.
I really enjoyed the game, so congrats to Remedy. It's pretty sad that it didn't do very well in terms of sales sadly.
I know others already responded, but just wanted to be one more person to add how much I've enjoyed the combat and how much of a highlight was for me.
This sure is a big one for the resetera asinine posts scrapbook.
I didn't totally think the Lynchian elements in Control worked that well but it is also a very ambitious game and I am glad this might get it more commercial notice! Good job Remedy and lol at the people saying GOTY needs to be based on sales.
I think the numerical scores were lower due to technical issues on base consoles when it launched. On a souped up PC, it's stunning.
