Christ more ads than text. No approval from me.

A drop of content in a sea of ads. I lost count after 11 ads.

20 years later, Resi is still the top horror game. (And it had to rescue itself from the disaster of 5 and 6). Where's the competition at?

eh?
They better not mess much with the Max Payne Remake(s)

Yui_Suzumiya167d ago

Yeah but this was announced before the Max Payne Remake after all

LucasRuinedChildhood167d ago (Edited 167d ago )

What does "unlocking some previously released content" actually mean though? I would imagine it should be "previously unreleased content". Bit odd.

DaReapa167d ago

Right. Especially since the Ultimate Edition supposedly contained everything.

raWfodog168d ago

I only played about an hour of Control when I added it to my library back when it was one of the PS+ ‘free’ games. I’ll start it over again after the early 2025 update is dropped. I keep hearing that it’s a good game.

jznrpg167d ago

You can make that statement for any game. It’s called gameplay loop. Not everyone is going to enjoy the same loops but all games are repetitive by nature

RedDevils167d ago

Agree it was very boring game. Could not get into it. Remember me the game I played on PS3 is still better than this.

Chocoburger168d ago

These days "RPG" translates to constantly grinding for experience points, wasting time upgrading gear, and repeatedly collecting resources off the ground.

Please don't be an Ubishit style filler game.

Yui_Suzumiya167d ago

Hopefully it'll be more like Mass Effect

Amplitude167d ago (Edited 167d ago )

Remedy doesn't really make mistakes. It'll be good, I'm sure.

Inverno168d ago

So in other words it's an action game needlessly fluffed out with RPG mechanics and a pointless leveling system. I really enjoy RPGs when they're actually RPGs but modern action games really tire me out when they shoehorn in mechanics they don't need. All this does is make a 20 hour game into a 40 hour game because missions become locked behind level requirements, and enemies become damage sponges. It's not fun, it's tedious.

Remedy is leaving Epic in the dark place to self-publish Control 2

Remedy will self-publish Control 2 as part of a new "strategic cooperation agreement" with Annapurna. A press release accompanying the announcement says Annapurna will provide half of Control 2's development budget, and in return gains the rights to adapt Control and Alan Wake for film and television.

TheNamelessOne250d ago

Devs backing EPIC didn't last long. I just can't understand why ... /s

porkChop249d ago (Edited 249d ago )

This isn't about the store. Epic published the game on all platforms. They want to self publish because they couldn't recoup Alan Wake 2's budget.

Killer2020UK249d ago

...because Epic chose to restrict its PC release to the Epic store and completely restrict it's physical release until later this year.

Vits249d ago

It’s connected, though. They couldn’t recoup the costs because Epic restricted the places and formats where the game could be released, literally removing the biggest PC distribution channels from the equation. And they also sold the game cheaper than a traditional full release, solely to support their statements at the launch of the Epic Games Store that PC games would be cheaper if it weren’t for Steam.

RaidenBlack249d ago

Dang, nice ... Alan Wake II is an amazing game
Can't wait for Control 2 and Max Payne Remakes

DustMan249d ago

Not sure why your getting down voted because you found Alan Wake 2 amazing. I'm in the same boat as you. Can't wait for Control 2 & the Max Payne remakes. Max Payne 1 & 2 were some of my favorite pc games from my early teens lol.

RaidenBlack249d ago

Coz N4G logic.
You cant praise a game if its got no physical release, not releasing on PS etc

isarai249d ago

Maybe this time we'll actually get a day 1 physical release

JEECE249d ago

And hopefully Steam/GOG options on PC.
