List of Games You've Beaten 2026

[Signalstar]

Just Finished: Control: Ultimate Edition (PS5)

My first Remedy game. This was given out as a PS Plus monthly title several years ago. I started and stopped playing it several times. Finally the game started to click after my latest attempt. The graphics are phenomenal, among the best I have seen, which is impressive because this started as a PS4/Xbox One game. The story is bonkers and I did not try too hard to follow it. The game is creepy, sometimes it felt like a horror game. The combat and gameplay are a unique mix of third person shooter and a superhero game. The map could be convoluted to navigate. There are too many damn collectibles. The weapon and personal mod systems were not straightforward so I did not take advantage of them. Some puzzles were obtuse and some enemy varieties downright annoying to contend with. However the amount of imagination on display is really enjoyable. Unlocking new powers and abilities is enjoyable. There is a ton of optional content and side quests that I did not bother with. Some checkpoint placement is iffy. I may consider going back to complete the two included DLC packs. I'm going to play Alan Wake sometime down the line and will definitely check out Control Resonant in the future as well. 

Score: 8/10
