"Fall of Cybertron has some truly excellent moments, but you'll need to look past some serious downsides to enjoy the overall package."
Written by Jeff Gerstmann
While originally only the PlayStation and Steam stores were affected, now all the Transformers games on Xbox One and Xbox 360 have been delisted from the marketplaces.
Legend of Korra has been delisted from all marketplace stores as well. The rights expired with Activision.
Jason Stettner of Gamerheadquarters writes; "Transformers: Fall of Cybertron was a remarkable game, it continued the story line that War setup and presented players with the world of Cybertron which is often only mentioned in most media. "
Both 'War for' and 'Fall of' are really well made games. Much better than any of the movie licensed ones.
I love these games way better then the movie crap that was put out. Too bad the third game Rise of the Dark Spark sucked they had a great franchise going on with War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron.
Despite the franchise being almost perfect for a line of video games, many of the Transformers games have been mediocre or plain terrible.
"It’s not all bad new for fans though, because there is a new animated TV series based on the original Generation 1 series and toyline coming too."
I'd never heard of that. Would be interesting to see, tho.
The nuts on this site can't make up their own minds. Read comments section ont he site its a bunch of hey hold my hand and lead me to the will i like it line or not.
Scrubs. Cover system for giant robots you guys are jokes on that site
I perceive GiantBomb's reviews to be incredibly unique, in that they are more personal and less restricted by boundaries than other, more convoluted reviewers such as IGN, of whom are consistently contradicting their own marking scheme (Scoring criticised games perfect score for example). Whilst other reviewers are devoid of personality, such is not the case for GiantBomb, who, rather than assessing every aspect of a game by the reviewers guide, instead provide what they consider to be important components, what frustrates them and what they love.
Whilst I do wish the game had been given to a more regular Third-Person Shooter gamer, I can understand many of Jeff's points. I can see this being an incredibly polarising game review-wise, with already Game Informer scoring it a 9/10 and IGN scoring it an 8.5/10.
I am anticipating its launch here in the UK...
Dont agree with the cover system criticism, it would intfere far to much with the pace of the game in MP and it doesnt make much sense for a giant robot who has a shield to take cover.
Im still anxiously awaiting my pre order as the meat of the game is in the MP.
score is 3 out of 5
