It has been some time coming, but finally the world of G1 Transformers has been brought to life in a three dimensional video game. War for Cybertron is a third person action game, set on the Transformer’s homeworld during the final stages of the civil war which ultimately led to their mass exodus and eventual encounter with humanity.
Whearas the last few Transformers games (based on the Michael Bay films) offered a sandbox style of play, Transformers: War for Cybertron is a third person shooter in the vein of Gears of War. The chapters are intesped with cinematic cut scenes that add to the movie-like presentation, but throughout actual gameplay points of interest will often be highlighted, which you can focus on by pressing down on the d-pad.
While you can transform into your respective robot’s vehicle mode at any time, the emphasis really is on shooting. You can carry two weapons at any time, smashing energon crates to find ammo, health and various other armaments in the Transformer arsenal; which include sniper rifles, gattling guns, grenade launchers, shotguns and assault rifles. And if you’re out of ammo, you can press the right analog stick to melee your opponent.
