I usually don't go for the video game/movie tie-in, but the idea of being a transforming robot fighting other transforming robots in a city couldn't keep me away. So, I put $60 down on a game I knew would be mediocre. And that's what it is. But I can't get past the simple fun. Transforming and destruction. This is one of those titles you keep in your collection just to itch that scratch. The game is simple. You have an objective; either destroy this, or destroy that. Then, as a transformer you either drive or fly there, or you run around as a giant robot. It's satisfying fun.
But on the other hand, I wish more time would be put into titles like this. The graphics in Transformers are pretty damn good. But the single-player campaign is rather bland, consisting of just blowing up stuff. To be honest though, I wouldn't know how to make a good transformers game. To me it would have to be similar to Power Stone or the recent Godzilla games. A huge arena in a city or similar, where four or more transformers battle each other. But given the transforming ability, it could be a unique twist for a fighter.
I won't review the game because it's pretty much what we've come to expect. I'm going to try and knock out a few reviews here and there, but these will mainly be for titles that I think differently about than most people. I really don't like game reviewers. They use a terrible system and don't give enough information. You will never see me review a Final Fantasy game. I would rate it low because of my preference, so why take the time? I'll probably do a C&C3 review. Going from not expecting much, to looking to be pretty good, how did it finally fare?
I've tweaked my page some and I feel slightly satisfied from the results. I think there's a little more I can do, but for now I'll do these changes as I go.
