Fast paced battles, beautiful detail, and a wad of firepower

User Rating: 8.5 | Gun Metal PC
If you're a gamer who only enjoys games like MGS or Splinter Cell, then this game's probably not for you. But if you love blowing things up and flying around at high speeds then you'll probably love this game. The concept in itself of piloting a transformer vehicle has captured my imagination since childhood. And this game has made me relive that. Though I must say that the controls do take a little getting used to, especially in jet mode. Also, humanoid-bot mode becomes pretty useless once you get used to flying around. The weapons are also a little boring -- it's like almost all weapons just blow up. Now, if they added energy weapons that could charge up and little mini-jets that came out of your shoulders and helped you battle, that would have made it a lot more interesting. A secondary weapon would also be greatly appreciated, as cycling weapons can get tiresome and annoying. Overall, the graphics are great and load pretty fast, the gameplay though repetitive is still enjoyable, and the music could use a little work (a little more 'metal' would be great).
