The base consoles currently have major performance issues during gunfights. I'm talking fps drops down into the teens and near-unplayable territory. Xbox One X and PS4 Pro also experience dips but nothing anywhere near as severe.

Definitely take this into consideration if anyone is buying this for the base machines.
Probably because there is another thread that shows the generic 25% off offer at Target, but not Control specific.

When I search on SD I search what I'm interested in, such as "Control PS4". That never would've come up in that other thread so I created this one to help others specifically interested in Control.
I'm enjoying the game, but the performance complaints aren't wrong. I'm playing on a PS4 pro and it has gotten a little laggy on a few occasions. Also, the game is kind of ugly. I'm not a graphics snob by any means, but there is a grainy plastic looking effect on some of the models that's a little off putting. Having said all that, I am having fun. My recommended wait price is probably $25, but this isn't a bad deal by any means.

This makes the recent 2070 deal even better. Since it came with Control. If these prices are a deal, then that drops the effective price of the 2070 down to around $250.

I think it'd be smart to wait for next gen on this title. Control supports ray tracing on PC, which just so happens to be one of the standout features of next-gen consoles.

Recommend not purchasing this if you dont own an enhanced console. Have played on both my one x and one s. Some portions are frustratingly unplayable on the xbox one s.
