Abstract: Transformers: War for Cybertron aims to do what few Transformers games have ever done -- be good. Better than good, in fact. It aims to be great. Unlike previous abortions like 2009's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, this original take on the Tra...
Abstract: Back for another bout of wanton robotic destruction, the Autobots and Decepticons battling takes place this round on Cybertron, the machines’ home planet. Players once again can fight on either side, choosing from a roster that swells in ranks a...
Great story added to Transformers canon Really gorgeous visuals Stellar voice cast Really fun multiplayer modes Good use of transforming
Occasionally temperamental controls Environments and enemies all start to look the same Not enough ammo No snap-to cover
War for Cybertron is something of a mixed bag of a game. However, the multiplayer modes are fantastic; combined with the addition of some new canon Transformers lore for fans, we'd have to say it's worth the price of admission....

Transformer fans can add at least 10% onto the review score for War for Cybertron. It's head and shoulders above any other Transformers game, with treatment of the narrative and characters its greatest success. For all other gamers, it represents a de...
Abstract: Finally, a 21st century Transformers game. But is it any good?Since 1986, fans of the popular '80s TV cartoon series have desperately longed for a chance to kick serious metallic butt. Why 1986, you say? Well, that was the year Denton Design made the v...
Though you could argue the environments are repetitive, the gameplay solid but uninspiring you’d miss all that High Moon has accomplished. Transformers’ finally works and with a TPS base that’s as polished as some of the best examples out there, this i...
