As ever throughout gaming history, leaps forward in technology are made. When this happens, we begin to see titles pop up which take advantage of such advances. These games can be grouped into two categories. One, the group of titles which actually have something and the other group which completely rely on whatever technological advancement happens to be the hot potato at the time.
Today we are witnessing Ray Tracing which without doubt looks great. Control is just that, a very good looking title that relies completely on the ability of the tech it is using, the game play is actually quite mediocre and boring in my opinion. I have played this kind of game it seems over and over, there is nothing new to see here unless you like watching fancy lighting, god rays and light bouncing of particles of dust. Yes it all look pretty amazing but I want to spend money to play a 'game' not spend money to remind me how great the graphics card I spent a fortune on is.
I gave this game a couple of hours and I am bored completely. All this has done for me is remind me how cool ray tracing is and long for other titles, worthy of my attention to use it.
It has the right name at least, Control. And that is about all it does, controls the graphics card to give you a fancy light show. No wonder it is being bundled with the RTX cards. Both the bundled titles suck and do nothing but promote the card it uses :(
