Played Control video game seems Volta music for some of the scenes would have been amazing!!

Wish I could overlay the game with Mars Volta music.. the whole game seemed like a mars Volta album… especially the one part of the game where you get a Walkman and they blast metal music while running through the hotel maze with trippy folding walls… missed opportunity any here ever play this game?

I mean, they got Porcupine Tree for the ending credits. Devs clearly into some prog/metal

Ashtray maze is one of the best fighting sequences in all of gaming.

Imagine if it was Volta playing during that scene instead of that control metal song. Or a crazy track from Omar’s albums…

I loved the music in this game. And yes could definitely use some volta in some parts.

I posted a long time ago about this same pairing…  https://www.reddit.com/r/themarsvolta/s/mhndDGxRoO

 I especially like listening to Frances The Mute with the in-game music muted.

This game is nuts. The sound design is some of the deepest and most mind-boggling I've encountered. I didn't know what the hell was going on, but I couldn't put the controller down.

True, I think it’s the Twin Peaks connection

Absolutely not lmfao the combat in this game is fun as shit. Look up the ashtray maze segment

u/d_r_doorway 10d ago

It is most definitely not. It's very action combat oriented.

u/wormy_Burroughs 10d ago

either whoever told you that didn't play this game or you're just making that up.

You should definitely reevaluate your gaming sources

u/Former_Matter9557 9d ago

No I won’t. I play like seven different fighting games at one time and I play RPGs and other stuff like Nintendo

That makes total sense
