Alan dons a disguise for Transformers Devastation, the latest brawler from action specialists Platinum Games.

Great combat; Perfectly emulates the 80s cartoon aesthetic; Excellent voice cast

Camera is a bit dodgy; Very short

Despite the toy-line having a popular 1980s cartoon as well as further cartoon series', Transformers: Devastation , with its beautiful cel-shaded visuals, is the first Transformers game of the modern day to be clearly based on a cartoon.

Good fun. Cartoon art stays true to your nostalgic memories rather than the Michael Bayism. Combat satisfying. Good to kill a few hours.

There hasn't been much representation of the first generation of the Transformers, which is generally held in the highest regard by the fan base, mostly due to nostalgia and it being the one most adults grew up with in the '80s, as well as having a totally awesome animated movie.

Transformers: Devastation does a remarkable job of capturing that Saturday morning magic. The vibrant visuals and spot-on voice acting easily draw the player in, while the upgrades, purchasable skills, and combat system will keep them playing until the end.

from the makers of Bayonetta, the combat is fast, frantic and a whole lot of fun. Nice cell shaded style graphics. A lack of characters to choose from (only 5 autobots available). I dont know the exact time but it felt about 5–6 hours long at best, most could finish it in one sitting.

While we've gotten some of the best Transformers games under Activision, we've also gotten some stinkers, and a few that were only okay. Transformers: War For Cybertron and Transformers: Fall of Cybertron are pretty big games to live up to, and I'll be the first to admit after Platinum's foray into...

The massive robots in Platinum Games's Transformers: Devastation feel as light and fluid in action as the spry witch from the developer's Bayonetta franchise. They run gracefully and smoothly as they strike their enemies in rapid succession.

Fun game transformer how they used to be

Transformers: Devastation is a third person brawler based on my favourite animated series from the nineteen eighties (in your face Thundercats and G.I Joe!) Back when I was a youngster I was a huge fan of the Transformers cartoon and the toy line it was based off.

Fun combat; Excellent cell-shaded graphics; Voice talent from the cartoon

Short story; Only has five playable characters; Limited environments
