Critic Reviews for Control
Control is set in an engrossingly weird paranormal world that I couldn’t help but explore.
Jesse's telekinesis joins Half-Life 2's juiced gravity gun in the videogame physics toy hall of fame.
Giddy action and astonishing art design combine in one of the great locations of modern video games.
The flawed storytelling squanders its full potential but even with a few missteps this is still one of the most enjoyable action games of the year.
The perfect blend of narrative and gameplay, coherency and strangeness, Control is a game we'll be talking about for generations.
Control's intense firefights are fun, but they don't evolve much in the second half. Fortunately, its unsettling mood and explosive moments more than balance the scales
