Finished both Autobot and Decepticon campaigns and was really disappointed.

SINGLE PLAYER

-Voices acters are probably doing the best they can, but the script is terrible and i feel the casting was just weird. I would have liked the original voice actors from G1 for the roles but there's no point talking about that further.

-Gameplay is straight foward, shoot this, open that door/control and continue on. The flying stages were probably the best as it offered a lot of freedom in movement. though it annoys me that flying vehicles are the only ones to have unlimited ammo in both machine guns and rockets yet land vehices dont.

Stage design was really good. but the obstacles you have to overcome to get from point A to B gets boring and repetative. weapon design is avaerage - the worst weapon for me was the grenade launcher. in tank mode the cannon can even miss at point blank which always pisses me off.

Boss battles felt very lacking - like they were missing command prompted action sequences.

in the end, i played the campaign only to unlock the 2 characters arcee and slipstream and just wanted to go play multiplayer.
the campaign is also short for about 6-10hrs depending on difficulty.

I do not recommend this game purely for single player - especially at full retail.

MULTIPLAYER

I've played about 2 nights worth - mostly against dkaris and it is really fun. There are four classes to customize. The colour selection sucks.

The multiplayer lobbies are terribly designied. you cant edit options or choose teams. there are no mini maps so finding your friends and enemies can be difficult sometimes making it hard to tell where battles are from the sound. i try to ear headphones to make it easier to tell but it doesnt help much.

so far i've only played Team Death Match so i wont comment on the other modes.

Escalation mode is different from multiplayer in that you team up for survival mode. you cant choose to start as autobots or decepticons or at least i havent found the option to do so.

the biggest problem is there is no offline multiplayer.

I am betting on future DLC like maps and character skins. I saw dead end in the concept art as well as a few other characters that i did not recognise.

FINAL SCORE

7/10 overall.
