Falls short as far as co-op is concerned

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Co-Op Review

2010's War for Cybertron is among my favorite games of this console generation. A solid three-player co-op campaign would have been good on its own, but throw in a robust set of multiplayer options, including Escalation mode, a survival mode for up to four, and you had something truly special. Thus, my expectations were high for Fall of Cybertron. While it is a good game, the wholesale removal of multiplayer options in the campaign causes it to fall short from a co-op perspective.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Demo Launches on XBL and PSN Today

If you're like me, you've been ho-humming through the summer, waiting for the onslaught of upcoming fall games. There have been a few shiny distractions here and there, but nothing has really held my interest, until today. I fired up the new demo for Transformers: Fall of Cybertron and lo and behold, I actually wanted to play it again, and again, and maybe even one more time after that. I don't know if I'm that starved for the next big thing, but this demo at least provided an appetizer.

Go Transformer Retro with a Gamestop Preorder

When Transformers: War for Cybertron dropped, I was surprised how fun the 3 player co-op campaign was.  Rather than build on this quality for the sequel, Fall of Cybertron, High Moon Studios have removed campaign co-op and created Escalation Mode instead.  One way to salve any self inflicted wounds brought about by this depressing turn of events is to bring back some of the retro skins of the original cartoon series.  This is exactly what you get if you preorder the game via Gamestop - Old Skool Optimus!

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Release Date Moved Up, New Metroplex Trailer is Moody and Stompy

Transformers: Fall of Cyberton has got itself a shiny new release date: August 21. This is one of those rare occasions when a game's street date is actually moved up. Sure it's only a week, but I'll take any oasis in the desert that is the summer release schedule. The amount of triple A co-op games coming out between now and then is slim.

Today, High Moon studios announced Transformers: Fall of Cybertron would be bringing back War for Cybertron's cooperative Escalation mode.

We discussed the revamped Escalation mode while I got some hands-on time with a few single player missions.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Not Coming to PC

Bad news (again), PC gamers. Transformers: Fall of Cybertron won't be coming to that fancy keyboard-and-mouse console known as the Personal Computer. I suppose we shouldn't be surprised, since last fall we heard that the next Transformers game would be dropping the co-op campaign.  Nevertheless, it's still disappointing to continually see PC gamers being left on the side of the road, and in this case the reasons are also alarming.

A new teaser trailer is out for Transformers: Fall of Cybertron as well as information about the Combaticons joining the fray

Combaticons Reunite for Transformers: Fall of Cybertron

I am a Transformer purist at heart, enjoying the original teams of Autobots and Decepticons the most.  As the years progressed more and more strange Transformer types were added; from Dinobots to Fairytwinklecons.  One group that stood out were the Combaticons and their ability to form into the giant Bruticus.  According to GameStop, Bruticus will stomp his way into Transformers: Fall of Cybertron.  As an added bonus High Moon Studios have also released a teaser trailer for the game.
