Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Picked up Control again. Had a couple people get me interested in Alan Wake 2, and I’d already played through half of Control earlier in the year before I lost interest. I’m more into it now. Not planning on playing the first Alan Wake, but I’m playing the crossover DLC in this right now.
I didn’t really care for the first Alan Wake. And I kind of liked Control but wasn’t crazy about it.
But man Alan Wake 2 is fantastic.
Also, if you like the concepts in Control, particularly about the objects, you should check out the miniseries The Lost Room which I suspect inspired it a lot.
I finished Control and immediately fired up AW2 and so far I’m exactly with you on both, heh. I didn’t know how good AW2 was going to look, right up there with Death Stranding and Cyberpunk 2077 as some of the best-looking stuff I’ve had on my PC.
The series is an interesting rec, I haven’t seen Peter Krause in anything other than Six Feet Under.
