Abstract: Questionable fashion and excellent music define the 1980s. If you’re an Eighties (or even Nineties) kid, then you probably remember when The Simpsons and MTV were still good. Hell, anything you saw on TV was better than the remakes and brain-melting fo...
Abstract: Transformers: War for Cybertron has taken a significant leap over the previous next-gen Transformer games. The visuals are sharp and the sound is just as good as ever. The gameplay can get repetitive at times but the sheer destruction and carnage in the game makes up..
Abstract: It's almost time to start actually expecting something good out of a licensed game. Solid efforts like Spider-Man: Web of Shadows and fantastic ones like Batman: Arkham Asylum have shown us that when game developers stop working on movie timetables ...

Abstract: The tagline for the Transformers cartoon boldly claimed that there is more to these robot beings than meets the eyes. Unfortunately, the latest game in which these ever-changing aliens star offers much less than its shiny exterior promises. This flashy...
Moving around as a vehicle, especially a jet, is fun, Escalation provides a clever twist to the standard Horde mode, Competitive play has unique classes and plenty of rewards to strive for.
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...
