Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Review - FYC

FYC

Fall of Cybertron is a great title with alot of the same from the original but lacks a little “spark” the previous title “War for Cybertron” had so let’s transform and roll out as we take a look at the latest title in this highly anticipated sequel. As usual, we continue to stride to avoid as many spoilers as possible.

should be clear here that this reviewer is reviewing the singleplayer only. No mention of multiplayer or escalation mode at all. Poor review.

Baszs4270d ago

Bit lame that he played it on normal!
Bad review if you ask me! No details, not a word on multiplayer!

Moby-Royale4270d ago (Edited 4270d ago )

How is that lame?

Normal is how the game was designed to be played.

And how exactly was the reviewer supposed to review the *multiplayer?

Think son.

skywarpgreer4270d ago

Why release a review without multiplayer being reviewed? pointless.

kasasensei4270d ago

It's all the stupidity of those reviews. People want to be the first to review a game, even if they only review 60% of it and play it in casual difficulty setting (aka "normal") to complete it quicker...

Zha1tan4270d ago

You cant criticise a game for not being difficult enough if you play it on normal mode...

Thats like driving a ferrari at 30mph and complaining it cant go fast enough.

Captain Qwark 94270d ago

its actually a pretty solid review. the game sounds great and i can understand a reviewer playing on normal since that is what most peeps will do. that said, if he mentions its too easy and you know it has a hard mode then you know to immediately start it on that.

anyway, this is still my next game. as soon as i finish the perfection that is darksiders 2 ( okay maybe not perfect becuase it did start slow like the first one but damn is it getting insane )

Crazay4269d ago (Edited 4269d ago )

You see, a vast majority of people will only play this on normal, hence the reason it was only reviewed on the Normal difficulty. Without revealing too much, Megatron gets an upgrade(resulting in enhanced firepower), Bruticus is an absolute animal(his level was a breeze) and Grimlock isn't much different from Bruticus. Out of 13 chapters, that works out to about 1/3 of the game using over powered characters.

So yes if you want more of a challenge, please just jump right into the higher settings(in fact I probably will do it there for the 100pt achievement) but understand that a majority of people won't even bother. They'll play it then move on to multiplayer.

Cerberus294269d ago

I played through the first one on normal first to experience the story, then went through again to beat it on hard and get all the collectibles.

This review could have given it a 1/10 and I wouldn't care. I already know I'm getting this game. I've been playin the demo nonstop for two weeks and I loved the first one.

so about that digital """future" ""...

skycaptin52308d ago (Edited 2308d ago )

It's a real shame, Fall and War were truly remarkable games.

Cobra9512307d ago

You can always redownload titles you already bought, even delisted ones. And while the digital future may bring downsides like this one, it is inevitable nevertheless.

Krysis2307d ago

I grew with you but you will never convince idiots they are wrong, that's what makes them idiots.

ChrisW2307d ago

Exactly, they can always be redownloaded!!!

I just downloaded Transformers: Devastation and War for Cybertron to check.

The article said it's because of Activision's license expiring. Unless there's a huge nasty internal disagreement about that sort of stuff, this delisting will hopefully not be permanent.

firelogic2307d ago

If you bought it, you can still redownload it as many times as you want. They're just not selling it anymore. We'd be in the same situation if physical copies ended their print run.

And yes, we are moving to an all digital future. All doesn't mean "all or nothing." You can still buy LPs in 2018. That doesn't mean the majority of the population hasn't moved onto MP3s and streaming music.

BluRay/DVDs are still sold but have been steadily decreasing year after year as people have moved onto streaming and digital downloads.

Physical books are still printed but are in decline because of e-readers/tablets/cell phones.

PC gaming has been basically 100% digital for some time now and you don't see them proclaiming that the sky is falling. It's just console gamers that are reluctant to accept the inevitable. I don't understand why.

spektical2307d ago (Edited 2307d ago )

"It's just console gamers that are reluctant to accept the inevitable. I don't understand why."

You arent a true gamer then. True money value for a game is in the physical copy. Digital is much more anti-consumer at this place in time. You cannot lend games to friends, and sure there needs to be a middleground. At this point I can go to my friends houses and trade switch/ps4 games like mario/zelda/horizon/gta5, which i cant do with digital. The needle is too far on the anti-consumer side. Steam tried it with family sharing, but its bs i have to sign in to a friends pc for "family share", why can't I decide which 5 friends can view my library from the my home?

Skuletor2307d ago

Same situation if physical copies of a game ended their production run? Don't think you can buy many preowned digital games, especially when they've been delisted.

darthv722307d ago

@spektical: Digital is not anti-consumer. if anything it is pro consumer as digital is much easier to obtain. And really a true gamer is someone who plays games no matter where or in what format.

Sounds to me you are more of a shelf collector than a gamer if you are worried about physical vs digital.

Sunny_D2307d ago

Physical copies that end their run still have the benefit of atleast having a used copy you can find for said game. There’s no such thing as a used digital game.

rainslacker2307d ago (Edited 2307d ago )

Pretty sure u can still easily obtain almost every game ever made physically. It's not like it's terribly hard to find people selling stuff. It's rare that I have to wait it out on something. Just last week I brought over 40 snes games all new, and their print run ended well over 20 years ago.

Otoh, my digital copy of r-typres which I actually paid for back at the start of last gen I'd no longer available for sale, nor is it available to download.

Digital has it's advantages sure, but this is one place where physical trumps digital, and the 2nd biggest reason why I prefer physical. The first is I actually like havi my something of value, which digital games don't beyond my own account

narsaku2307d ago

Yea yea, 1 or 2 games get de-listed and can still be downloaded by people who purchased and nobody really cares about them anyway and the retards come out laughing at the future of gaming, all the while they can't find 3/4 of their games they bought in the last 10 years, half of them probably don't work without skips/glitches, several, "disk 2's", are gone, several of the cases you opened, led to cracked games cus mum dropped your old collection while playing etc etc etc etc etc etc etc.

I swear console gamers here are 200 years old.

Professor_K2307d ago (Edited 2307d ago )

No ty, Downloading 40g games on a 445kb banwidth is MADNESS😆😭

This game is still in my backlog :(

gangsta_red2307d ago

Same, got it from PS+ and I was determined to finish it because I am a huge G1 fan...sadly I never did.

LucasRuinedChildhood2307d ago

You can still download and play it.

ZwVw2307d ago

Legend of Korra has been delisted from all marketplace stores as well. The rights expired with Activision.

Revisiting Transformers: Fall of Cybertron

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. "

These games as very close to me actually liking them...

darthv722308d ago

Both 'War for' and 'Fall of' are really well made games. Much better than any of the movie licensed ones.

BlackTar1872308d ago

i just wish the MP in #2 was better and more inline with #1.

I put like 200hrs into MP on #1 and was one of the hidden gems of last gen. Whatever they did to MP in #2 was awful IMO of course

Knightofelemia2308d ago

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.

jukins2308d ago

1st one was amazing. Second was so sloppy technically was near unplayable

"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.
