Transformers: War for Cybertron
Transformers: War for Cybertron is launching at an odd time for the franchise. Rather than follow the events of the successful movie franchise, it instead focuses on appealing to the thirtysomethings that grew up watching the original animated series in the 1980s. It does so by depicting the war that led to the Autobots and Decepticons crash landing on Earth. The resulting third-person shooter is a bit simple at times, but still does a fine job of harkening back to the days when Optimus Prime and the gang ruled Saturday morning.
The story functions as a prequel to the animated series, with both the Decepticons and the Autobots getting their turn in the spotlight over the course of the campaign's twelve chapters. The POV doesn't shift to the Autobots until the story's midpoint, but it's possible to jump forward and take control of the good guys first.
I'm playing it right now. They did good job on all those details, everything is just great. Brings me back to old good times of Transformers animation series
