Transformers: Dark of the Moon - Xbox360 - preview

1:47 AM Posted by Mario Galarza


It was no great deal lately to get fans excited for transformers. The second film of Michael Bay was the cinematic equivalent of idiotic high school kids lighting their farts on fire (or so I say...) (I don't go to see it in the theater or something, I swear!), so that is the view on the third film, not too appealing. The game is based on, but is the spiritual successor to last year's acclaimed war for Cybertron, making it the next transformers product that should require your attention.

The single-player campaign puts you in control of different robot in each level, on the mechanical color scale of speedy Bumblebee to hulking Megatron. Like its predecessor, that is game play in DotM third party the kinda-sorta shoot, gears of war, is but without the explicit cover system and with the compulsory giant, sentient robots transform. This time have been the vehicle modes with "Stealth force", you heavy firepower and more tactical movement ability to almost on par with robot modes in the fight, if not even a little better in a high mobility (although I can still no idea like a sports car may strafe) updated.

The different transformers that have different abilities how change they struggle approach. Bumblebee can an advanced radar feature the locations of all enemy bots to him with red arrows display even if selected from the line of sight. A very smooth Ninja-like Autobot named Mirage has instead hide a stealth ability, left him sneaking around, to gain an edge in the fight or it give up. Megatron, is on the other hand, how predictably about plowing through everything in its path. his ability is a vampiric, draining attack who steals the juice from the close to nearby enemies and heals him again.

DotM multiplayer does very similar offers to the last year's game, the same types of classes (with different name of this time around) to give you options in your game style. We tried the traditional team deathmatch, had but much more fun with the capture mode on each team, to last longer than the other three different capture points.

What distinguishes the multiplayer from other games is that forward and bring disadvantages between vehicle and robot mode. , The vehicles have a bit more firepower as they may be used, but they are as mentioned even more for mobility and less for Slugfests. In addition, you have added the additional distinction between air and ground vehicle modes, a completely different dimension to exercising control of your team on the map.

Transformers: dark of the Moon is set mid-June, a few weeks before Michael Bay SLO-MO get abuse, self-gratifying explosion Festival. Something tells me that once, the video game will be better.
