10 Best Video Games Of 2019 You Haven't Played

10. Control

Everyone knows the name of Control and what it looks like, but sales have been disastrous, so that doesn't seem to have translated into anything hands-on.

And that's a massive shame, because Control is Remedy standing tall as studio with scores of recognisable, signature elements they're proud to combine. Set around a mysterious, Men in Black-style facility housing supernatural secrets, one Jesse Faden has to figure out what the hell is going on, while Max Payne himself, James McCaffrey , fills in a handful of details through mysterious phone conversations.

Alan Wake's Matthew Porretta also features heavily as long-time collaborators Poets of the Fall offer some new music to back one of the game's best sequences.

Gameplay too is a showcase of telekinetic destruction, letting you grab and throw any part of the environment as you unlock various additional abilities including flight, defensive shields and mind-control.

All this on top of a transforming gun that gives you everything from sub-machine guns to grenade launchers.

It is insane that Control is not up there with Death Stranding and Devil May Cry as the best-selling of the year, because it might be Remedy's best work yet.
