One of the better transformers games. Cybertron series of transformers games are probably best of them all. Graphics are okay, you could even say stylised. Gameplay doesn't feel bad. Characters do have good voicing, most of the time. However, game does overstay it's welcome near the end. Some enemies do feel spongey. If you are going to play transformers games, do play this one.
Everything I have said about Fall of Cybertron holds true for this one. It's a surprisingly fun 3rd person action adventure romp. It has 3rd person shooting sections and some driving too. Even as a non-transformers fan, I was drawn into this one and feel that with all the characters and story cutscenes, it would be even more appealing to fans of the series. It's difficult to separate the two games in terms of how enjoyable they are. They both have nice short and simple levels with some great action sequences which add a bit of variety to the gameplay. The voice acting and story is great and you can tell a lot of effort has been put into both games. I'd put this one slightly behind Fall of Cybertron as, while it is a very similar game, I found the environment in this game slightly blander and more gray. That being said, it's a great game in its own right and well worth picking up.
