A couple of years ago (in a galaxy far far away) High Moon Studios developed a Transformers game that had nothing to do with Michael Bay or any of his Hasbro franchise movies. Transformers: War for Cybertron was a refreshing take on the universe that was very much in a middle of its own resurgence. It did well to distance itself from the movie craze that was sweeping the nation and instead capitalize on the more nostalgic qualities of the franchise. While not perfect, the game was entertaining with a very interesting take on multiplayer. Now, two years (and one movie tie in game that we’d rather leave unmentioned) later, the franchise is back, with Fall of Cybertron. Does the sequel warrant for one last journey to the doomed world of Autobots and Decepticons, or is it best left to die on on it’s own means?
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.
Have seen a review done over here in Oz ( Good Game ) and must say was very impressed.
Only used to rent previous Transformers game because I just felt nobody has ever gotten the right formula and feel of the original show.. until now.
With this one I'm sure to get it after watching the review.
