“Sadly, apparently Activision’s not sure what hard drives they’re on in their building,” Hasbro told TFW2005. “When a company eats a company that eats a company things get lost, and that’s very frustrating.”

The PS2 Transformers Armada game is fantastic. Driving around in the (for the time) open world is a joy. The gunfights are interesting and tactical. The boss flights are over the top cinematic. And the minicons add brokenly fun abilities.

War for Cybertron I and II are worthy follow-ups with better acting and story, and even more fantastic boss fights. Vehicle modes remain fun. The core shooter is solid. Only points docked in my book is the lack of minicons, and dull color pallette.

And of course, the very first game is downright almost playable if you happen to be very young and lack access to hobbies or literally any other game.
