Fast-paced and fun, Transformers Devastation captures the spirit of the TV series with its impressive, fluid combat and range of devastating Autobot moves. Shame the campaign is a bit on the short side.

The original Transformers defined an entire generation of cartoon and comic book fans nearly 25 years before Michael Bay's ‘vision' for the franchise hit the scene. The G1 Transformers are the definition of super rad giant ninja robots, and now there's a game to shine the spotlight on those 1984...

Classic cartoon style; Frantic and precise combat; Interesting loot mechanic

Disorienting camera control; Questionable length; Ranged attack controls

The Transformers movies and video games of late seem to have a particularly bad reputation. Michael Bay's ‘splosion fest movies don't quite capture the love and quirkiness of the animated series. The games, at least the few that I've played, weren't the best either.

Fun | Hand-to-Hand combat is great | Combos are Easy to Master | Killer Soundtrack

Not Very Long | Not Many Combos | Story is simple

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

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.

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.

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.
