Transformers: War For Cybertron

Set before the cartoons, comics and other media, WFC follows the decepticons and autobots as they fight for there world.

The Decepticons are trying to harness the power of dark energon and rule the world while the Autobots are trying to save there leader Zeta Prime.

overall it is a great story but the cut scenes are quick and don't give much info. Still it is loads better than the movies story.

Graphics
Overall the endowments are beautiful. We very rarely get to see Cybertron which is the home world of the transformers, but it is a very mechanical, alien world. It has a very peaceful quality to it with the soothing light's and very smooth structures, but is also scarred by war with rubble and dead body's everywhere. There isn't that much colour, except in the autobots, but that is how it should be.

The characters are detailed and there movements are very well done but I had some problems with it. I don't mind the pop in pop out graphics but look carefully at the transformers, there a bit oh I don't know.....BLURRY!

and also the transformations really annoyed me. The reason, is that the character models quickly pop and change. On some transformers you can clearly see that the transformers pop and change while on overs it's more difficult to notice but still, many studios actually tried to make it look accurate. Look at the really crap transformers movie game and you'll notice

Game play
Okay, problems first:

1. There's no cover, I mean your a robot fighting over robots so it's like humans fighting humans. If they had cover this game would be easier and much cooler. I think the sequel should include this.


2. Difficulty's are too high. Easy is okay but when you get to the end it just gets almost impossible.


3. Not good enough customization for multiplayers characters. For one your basically playing as recoloured as autobots and decepticons. The weapons aren't also fair. For one the leader gets inaccurate weapons besides the smg and the really bad pistol. I really think he should have got the soldiers mini gun.

The good things are is that combat is fluent and effective, the transformations are fast and easy and the Special powers each character have are great, and well multiplayer is addictive. you will really enjoy this game as everything is very fast and fluent and like I said transformations are quick and easy and don't take long at all.

Sound Voice acting

Okay the voice acting is the best I have ever heard in a game, peter Cullen returns to voice optimus but over famous actors lend a new take on famous characters from megatron to bumble bee

music and sound effects

the music isn't 80's music and isn't Cartoon music. It's effective techno like rock that pumps the adrenaline and fits the game like a dream. The sound effects also resemble the effects from the movie which was amazing. This is a really special game.

Add these together and you get 10

This is a special transformer, shooter, action game but it could have been improved. The sequel may fix these but for now a shiny gold has been given to the transformers

History

The Transformers started off as a line of toys that could turn into trucks, cars, jets and guns. A hit in the 80's the toys hit the small screen and big screen along with numerous appearances in comics. After disappearing in the 90's, the 2007 transformer movie brought a new audience of children's and teenagers into the transformers saga. recently a new cartoon has been confirmed and will reunite the old cast of the 80's show.
