War for Cybertron/Fall of Cybertron
11 years ago
I picked up War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron on Steam last week.
I really liked War for Cyberton, a little short, but what there was was well implimented. The controls were nice and tight game play was fun. I kind of wish that I had played it co-op because Soundwave and Thundercracker have no function in single player.
Fall of Cybertron was not as much fun for me. There was a lot of control screwiness, and for a lot of the game it felt like vehicle mode was just tacked on and not worth using. The Grimlock and Bruiticus sections were just painful, the controls all just randomly switched around to make it less convenient to do any of the things that you're supposed to be doing. The only section of the game that really felt right was rampaging around with Megatron, they did a really good job of making everything he did seem idiotically destructive.
anyway War for Cybertron is totally worth it for $10 or less.
Fall of Cybertron probably still worth it at the reduced price, but know you'll need to wade through bad stuff to get to the Megatron rampage goodness.

FA+

I also wish I had more control over what weapons each robot had on them. In War you could carry any two nonturret weapons in robot mode, in Fall you get locked into a light and a heavy. which made things like a sniper rifle impossible to hold onto outside of the sniper rooms.
Did you ever intentionally use the scatter blaster in Fall? I couldn't ever get close enough for it to be useful.
