Can the latest videogame outing of Transformers stand, or does it fall?
I mean, come on!
Surely the Transformers are about as well suited to gaming as a Uruguayan linesman is to a Specsavers ad.
Lets face it, who on the planet doesnt recognise the ubiquitous transforming sound?
Was this another promise of theTransformersgame youve always wanted, or was it another Energon-fuelled turd?
I shuddered to think.
The game itself is a pretty by-the-numbers third person shooter title.
All very recognisable and generic, but also very fitting and well implemented here.
If you get lost, theyll even show you where to go.
The game is mostly impeccable when it comes to presentation, but does occasionally fall flat on its face.
(Come on, Epic, are youevergoing to fix this and let other devs know?)
Instead youre back to shuffling behind cover and popping out to take pot shots.
Even with its flaws,Transformers: War For Cybertonis, surprisingly, a pretty decent shooter.
If youre aTransformersfan, then rejoice.
Now, if youll excuse me, Im off to rip out some optics.
Transformers: War For Cybertronis out now andavailable from the Den Of Geek Store.
