I brought it up in the OT and it turned into a shit show for a page and a half.

Well done for putting a spoiler in for the end of the game though, that will brighten people's day.

Think I have a bug. Doenst work for me. X on PS5 btw. Have 3 batteries. Maybe it's context depended but I've been in dark places already. Weird

Nope, still mediocre as all the other games they released after Max Payne 2.

Their obsession with cramming FMV in their games is the worst thing that happened to the company. Oh and the fact that all the talent that made Max Payne 1 and 2 is not there

Nothing can come before Max Payne. Now imagine that after AW2, they make a proper Max Payne game... slomo+this tech and everyone would be grooling. Just drop the mysterious act... smash people's head into concrete, desks, door hinges whatever. Make everything destructible, able to throw people thru windows and security glass, get minus hp when you have to walk barefooted and shards lodge into your feet and we are all set.

I'm afraid Sam Lake is too high on his own farts to allow his company to make a simple fun game like Max Payne anymore.

Replace him with a doppelganger or lock him up in a treasure chest.

Games always seem better than they are during the honeymoon period. Personally speaking, I’ve had more fun with Control and Max Payne series than I’ve had with Alan Wake 2. From a pure gameplay perspective, they are in a different league. From a production perspective, then yeah, Alan Wake 2 could be deemed better.

I still think Quantum break is their best game.

I am currently playing Control after AW2. I'm enjoying Control gameplay decently enough. I will say, I fucking love games where everything is destructible, which is fantastic in Control. I am guessing AW2 would have had similar destruction but it hurt the performance? RE4 had it, sucks AW2 couldn't. Also, no dismemberment in AW2 is disappointing

RE4 remake had it ?
Friend, the environments in RE4RE are 99% static with the exception of some pots/plates in the background - it's better than - say - RE8 but still, destructible they are not.

Also, don't know how far you're into Control but man, if you love X-files and some D.Lynch you're gonna absolutely love it, one of my favorite games of last gen (although I finished it on an XSX at 60fps).

Cheers

Quantum was really nice but Control was better IMO just for the fact that the atmosphere was THICK
