The announcement of an upcoming Transformers video game is nowadays met with very little fanfare. The franchise consistently over-promises and under-delivers, and is frequently met with abysmal ratings, especially with its movie tie-in offerings. One game of the bunch that finally received a generally positive reception was Transformers: War for Cybertron, which had more flexibility in creating fresh content based on the historical homeworld of the Transformers, as well as showing players some introductions to the characters and how they came together.
Activision's Transformers games have been relisted on the Xbox and Steam stores, suggesting they could be available in the future.
Aw snap, i pirated the first game since I couldn't get it on steam but couldn't get it to work. Guess i don't gotta go out of my way now. Now if only SONY worked with em to port over Edge of Time or remastered Shattered and Edge.
WTF? I’ve been wanting to replay Fall/War games. So bummed they didn’t make em backwards compatible. I think imma have to dig out my 360 out of storage
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.
