Abstract: June 4, 2010 - The bad rap that licensed games often get may be generally well-deserved, but every once in a while there are titles that don't seem to fall victim to the trap of branding without the expected quality to back it up. High Moon Studio's Trans...
It all is as it sounds. War for Cybertron proves that a game, crafted from inspiration beyond the limiting confines of movies or cartoons, can have much greater potential than a rushed product meant to compliment cinema ticket sales. Sure, it’s definit...
Some games try to be art. They build massive worlds, use dynamic control schemes, create incredible characters and plots or do something unique that no one else has done. Transformers: War for Cybertron does none of these things, and still is a good ga...

Lack of visual and gameplay variety in the campaign, Paucity of ammunition, Boss fights are incredibly tedious, Friendly and enemy AI is poor, Transformations are integrated poorly with the core action.
The well-realized license in this third-person shooter can hide the myriad problems for only so long....
Abstract: “One shall stand. All others shall fall”. That should be the new catchphrase for Transformers: War for Cybertron, a game that so perfectly captures the essence of being a transformer, a game that makes the most of its license, a game that will make you...
