Remedy have just announced a new 3rd person story-driven action game, Control!

Heavily inspired by brutalism and abstract art, it looks pretty fun.

It gives off pretty strong SCP vibes.

The telekinesis stuff reminded me of Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy. I really loved that game just because of all the silly shit you could do with your powers.

Ah, Psi-Ops.
The thing I remember most about that game is running into a hallway lined with electrical current, encountering a single enemy soldier and swatting him telekineticly into the electric wall without breaking stride. Felt great.
Also the trainer's giant afro in the flashbacks.

The combination of gun-play plus telekinesis in this looks fun. I like the look of the Astral Plane challenge(s) too, you acquire new powers from cursed/haunted objects.
Is the 'Janitor' speaking Finnish mixed with English? He needs better subtitling for his odd manner of speaking, I think, for people who only speak English.
Already pre-ordered my digital copy, anyhow.
Why yes I'd be down to buy some Alan Wake on the PS4 or the Switch, if Remedy so chooses to provide them to us.

The achievement list looks very interesting, with one in particular having shades of a certain encounter from Ocarina of Time.
I am very hyped for this, it looks absolutely insane.
My hype is very real.

Heard enough people saying it's still looking good so I have it all ordered up.
Definitely one of the best Summers for games!
Any thoughts?
What previous game? They've been Microsoft-exclusive for a decade now.

It's true. Quantum Break did not run well on a PS4 at all...

Except that negative review which... okay I know not everyone can like everything, but holy moly is that a bad review.

Not entirely sure what my plan is between this and Astral Chain.
But I guess this one probably isn't too crazy long.
It’s supposedly 12 to 25 hours, depending on how deep into the side quests you go. That sounds perfect to me.
ayyy
Giant Bomb Quick look up, runs like ass on a standard PS4 apparently.

I imagine the fact that I am not largely bothered by performance stuff unless it is super bad means this probably isn't a big deal.
But we shall see tomorrow I guess!
Fuck it.
Welp...
Looks cool though.
Or perhaps rooms only move around when no-one is in them, or watching...
Unfortunately I need a us credit card for that, on the aus store it still hasn’t shown up. Which is odd cos the release date said the 27th and it’s rhe 27th in Australia right now
