If you manage to look past the large amounts of fan service and really dig deep into the game you'll quickly find just another average shooter with some interesting visuals. This is a game by fans, for fans.

High Moon has put its soul into this one, and it shows. [Issue#90, p.70]
Still, Hollywood likes things that go boom and look good doing so, much like Michael Bay's Transformers movies. The game industry operates much the same way, but the best games within it also introduce a fresh experience, something Transformers: Fall of Cybertron fails to do. Yes, Grimlock and the Combaticons are new, but for all practical purposes they're just multimedia window dressing on an otherwise evolutionary, not revolutionary, title.

"Fall of Cybertron" is an improvement over its predecessor "War for Cybertron". It has more of a "Gears of War" vibe to it. The story mode was expanded upon and has more of a cinematic presentation. And new gameplay elements were added to the horde mode "Escalation". Unfortunately, unlike "War", the story mode cannot be played cooperatively online. It's single player only. Still, "Fall" is one of the best "Transformer" games. I'd rate it with an 8.5 out of 10.

The game is cool but I didn't like the design of the robots and vehicles... I also missed more destruction and not hiding robot corpses

Direto ao ponto e divertido, mas sinto que podia ter aproveitado mais a Lore, (e olhe que oque apresentou foi bem mais efetivo que os filmes), oque faltou mesmo foi aproveitar mais a mecânica de se transformar, é com certeza o ponto alto do jogo que foi bem utilizado mas poderia ter mais.

This is a great shooter, perhaps the best we have had this year, so far, and it is definitely a game that is looking to be on my top 5 list of games for 2012. We have been lucky to have some great titles come out this year and we still have some exciting titles on the release schedule too, but don't make an error and miss this gem. I really hope we get a third game in this series.

Even if it's not the deepest interactive experience, Fall of Cybertron is certainly one of the most enthusiastic and boisterous digital adventures you'll have this year.

This game. THIS GAME. This is the perfect game for a Transformers fanboy like myself. The gunplay is fantastic, and there are actual reasons to transform in combat. GET THIS GAME, it is a masterpiece!

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron is a lot of fun, even if its looks aren't on par with its gameplay. It does, however perfectly capture the essence of Transformers and is worth checking out whether you're a life-long Transformers fan or just watched it when you were little and never gave another thought.

Right off the bat, the world contained in Fall Of Cybertron is far more impressive visually than that of its predecessor.

High Moon is really starting to find form and do the franchise justice. And despite the game's flaws, fans will surely find Fall Of Cybertron to be the best reflection of their beloved robots in disguise in many a year. Too bad they couldn't get Grimlock right, though.

War for Cybertron marks an evolution in the Transformers Video Game Series, a true work of originality and divine inspiration. Taking us back to the hallowed realms of Generation One Transformers, WfC's plot serves as a direct prequel to the original animated series, which I'm sure will make long-time fans **** in their limited edition Optimus Prime silk pyjamas, your standard fair, you

Meh. I really can't say much. Each guy handles like the last, just slightly speedier/slower, and each guy can only take so much punishment. WTH. I thought I was rolling with huge Instruments of Destruction, not some lame ****. And the jumping/flying? Not good man, not good. The controls feel clunky, and the weapons generally are a let down. You'd think they would have hooked up Optimus and crew with their signature weapons, but nope. Screw you, dude who grew up with these characters, we're gonna water em all down to make em palatable to the idiot masses. Ok Developer, that's fine, wreck my dreams of an awesome TF game where I rule. The ONLY reason to pick this up is if you have major wood for the Cybertron series. Otherwise, I guess the fans of the show are left out in the cold, as am I
