    If you're a fan of Transformers, this is one I'd recommend.

    Transformers: Dark of the Moon may not be a truly complete experience, but it's just that: a good time. At their core, I think that's what games should be all about.

    A disappointing offering and one that is especially perplexing after War for Cybertron offered so much potential. Every aspect of this game is lacking in some way and the only boon is the fact it is mercifully short. Childhood memories – consider yourself crushed.

    Considering that it was developed by High Moon, which also developed War for Cybertron, I had high expectations of this game. It has not proved me wrong, everything I enjoyed in WfC I found just as compelling in DotM. The control scheme and game mechanics were all familiar to me. I can understand how some people dislike how this game is almost identical to WfC and expected extra content. However, judging from the reviews of previously disastrous Transformers games, I'm not surprised why High Moon decided to keep everything the way it was. Expand

  2. Transformers: Dark of the Moon is a disappointing follow-up release from High Moon Studios. While the developers attempted to take their winning formula and make it appealing to casual gamers, they only succeeded in watering the entire experience down – and potentially casting doubt on what players might see in a possible War for Cyberton sequel. Without a doubt, Dark of the Moon is good, for a movie tie-in game, but only a fraction of the gaming population will probably find this title worth the cost of admission – i.e. the fraction of Transformer die-hards that like the Michael Bay-designed bots better than the Cybertronian versions. Otherwise, expect this game to be killer in 2012 bargain bins. Expand

  3. Horrible game that should not have been made, effort should have been put into the War for Cybertron 2. The campaign had horrible load times every time it would save on a level and the stealth mode ruins the need for robot mode during the campaign. The controls are slow & plodding, lagging behind the action with inaccurate melee and vanishing grenades. Map glitches abound where your character will be caught in invisible parts of the maps. Mulitplayer is plagued with lag in game and even when changing screens on the menu. Expand
