Bah-weep-graagnah-weep ninny-bong!
Everybody has that one especially cherished thing that defines their childhood. The Transformers fills that role for me, and sitting in a small movie theater in 1986 watching my hero Optimus Prime die before my eyes was a traumatic event. I’ve followed these Robots in Disguise through various cartoons, comics, and movies over the years, and I’m very protective of how they’re represented. High Moon Studios clearly respects this property as much as I do, which they proved with 2010’s Transformers: War for Cybertron. While I enjoyed that game quite a bit it was by no means perfect, and now High Moon is back with Fall of Cybertron, a game that tries to address the issues of the original. It’s a relief to see Cybertron have more variety in its design, and the problem of scouring the area for ammo in the heat of battle is no longer present, but these ‘bots need to let Wheeljack tinker with them just a little bit more.
Available tomorrow for the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
High Moon’s latest impresses.
Transformers: Fall of Cybertron is on its way to being just as good, if not better than its predecessor if my latest hands-on with the game is any indicator. 2010’s War for Cybertron left a lasting impression on me, and was one of my favorite games of that year. It finally set the bar for what a Transformers game should be like with the right amount of action, fluidity of gameplay, and the overall production value. Thankfully, Fall of Cybertron continues that trend. The latest demo, which includes single and multiplayer components shows that High Moon has learned from some of its mistakes in the last game and is trying hard to make sure that Fall of Cybertron is a better game overall.
If you preorder this game from GameStop you will be able to unlock the G1 Retro pack.

Now all we need is a little energon, and a lot of luck.
In a world where so many licensed properties are turned into video games to coincide with a movie release date for a quick buck and low expectations, it’s rare to see an IP leveraged for all it’s worth. That was the case with 2010’s Transformers: War for Cybertron. The third person shooter wasn’t tied to any current movie, cartoon, or toy line, which gave developer High Moon Studios the freedom and time to create a high quality game set in the expansive Transformers universe. It stood out, and did for the Transformers what Arkham Asylum did for Batman. High Moon is at it again, and this time the war has become much more urgent. The battle between the Autobots and the Decepticons has taken its toll, and soon Cybertron will fall.
