TRANSFORMERS : WAR FOR CYBERTRON
Cybertron
The game's story is split into two narratives that follow the two bot factions as they take shape, with the Decepticon story set before the Autobot story. The Autobot story is set before Optimus Prime assumed the mantle of prime and follows the unassuming Optimus as events unfold and he becomes the greatest leader the Autobots ever had. The Decepticon story follows Megatron, who, unlike Optimus, is well on his way to becoming a robo jerk. The narrative follows Megatron as he sets out to restore Cybertron to what he feels is its former glory, which, not too surprisingly, involves a whole lot of mayhem and destruction. The interesting wrinkle to Megatron's tale is how he gathers together his crew: one of his first recruiting missions has him meeting a promising young bot named Starcream.
The game features a single-player mode, split into two campaigns as we mentioned, as well as an online multiplayer mode that supports competitive and cooperative play which supports drop-in, drop-out gameplay for up to two other players so that you can go through the campaign story with two other friends.
The demo gameplay looked fantastic. Transformations were smooth and combat looked great. The graphics have a certain futuristic art style. One thing to note is that all the transformers look completely different from anything we've seen before. They are now in their 'pre-Earth' stage where they do not transform into human vehicles but Cybertronian vehicles instead. Pictures below.(click to enlarge)
