I was a little worried about not being able to get my hands on Transformers: Devastation until launch day. After playing for five minutes, everything is just prime.
For starters, the game has Transformers in it.
Thanks for watching!
What, thatās not enough? Weird.
Okay, itās got good the good Transformers in it, voiced by the original cartoon cast (well, the surviving cast). Megatron has a stupid plan, Starscream isnāt sure about it, and the Autobots arrive to save the day. So itās just like any episode of ā80s cartoon.
More?
The action is fast and fluid. The camera can get a little crazy at times, but Iām willing to trade a little wonkiness for full 360 degree camera control.
And about five minutes after the video ends I fought Devastator. So thereās that.
Non-fans might want to hold out for more in-depth impressions. Right now Iām a bit overwhelmed by nostalgia. In the video I was too busy geeking out to follow simple on-screen button prompts trying to teach me how to combo and used ranged weapons.
As for fans approaching my level of fervent devotion, the game features collectible Kremzeeks. If you donāt have to Google Kremzeek, this is probably a game for you.
Hey look, itās that opening cut scene I skipped.
TheFirst Five is the first five minutes of a game with light commentary. Once the five minutes are up, soās the video.
