Control Resonant Review

The Hot Dog Incident is the least of your worries.

When Remedy Entertainment released the original Control, it redefined how strange and compelling an action game could be. Seven years later, the studio has returned with Control Resonant, which officially launched on September 24, 2026. Stepping away from the claustrophobic, ever-shifting corridors of the Oldest House, the sequel thrusts players directly into the chaotic streets of Manhattan. While it carries forward the brilliant super...

Sony attempts to justify this move by claiming it's a "natural direction" in order to "adapt to consumer trends as the general preference for digital media significantly outpaces physical discs."...

    The International Dota 2 Championship - NewBee vs ViCi Grand Final Starts Now

    This is it. Today, in just a few moments, the Grand Finals kick off for The International Dota 2 Championship. The winner of over $5 million will be determined by the best of five matches. Three wins are all that separates, glory from defeat, a trophy from tears, $5 million from a crappy $1.47 million second place prize. NewBee fought back early to not only secure a spot in the Upper Bracket, but they also sent both Vici and Evil Geniuses back down to the Lower Bracket in the earl...

    Cloud9 has just knocked out Na`Vi from The International Dota 2 Championship just moments ago. C9 took the first game, Na`Vi took the second game, but Cloud9's early push was just too much for Na`Vi to overcome in the third game.

    This means that Cloud9 will take on ViCi for the first match of round two. Before that, however, iG will be taking on LGD for the second match of the first round in today's lower bracket matches. Despite being eliminated already, Na`Vi takes h...

  • How Many Games Did You Complete in 2025?

    Make up your own definition of "complete."

    Was 2025 a big year for game completions for you, or were you more of a "stick to one never-ending, live-service game for the entire year" sort of player?

    For this, you can take whatever definition you want as a game "completion." Beat the main story? Earned 100% of the game's achievements? Or simply played enough that you're satisfied with what you accomplished and have no plans to return any time...
