3/5 ★ – PenguinKiddo's review of Transformers: War for Cybertron.

It’s a shame the online community for this game isn’t active anymore. I remember having a blast playing some matches as a kid. However, I’d rather focus on the single player experience of this game. While it hasn’t held up as well as I thought it did, that doesn’t mean that the developers behind WFC didn’t make a really fun shooter out of the Transformers. The story wasn’t as compelling as I had hoped, but I enjoy being able to see two sides to the same story! The characters have also been adapted well with some good performances. Well, most of the time... Nevertheless, the missions have some nice set pieces and look good for their time. The clunky controls took a few missions to get used to, but after I figured them out I was still able to get some good shots. However, on the hardest difficulty, some moments were really frustrating to go through. The AI helps with a few enemies, but they often just get in my way. Most of the weapons are fun, but some easily beat others. Vehicle mode probably has the best controls in the game, with the jet missions probably being my favorite! I’m sad that I didn’t get excited like I once did with this game, but I still had a fun time returning to this game. However, I’d say get it for a low price as you won’t be able to experience the multiplayer nowadays. Definitely one of the better Transformer games!
