“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.”

War for Cybertron
Fall of Cybertron

Some of the best Transformers media that exists. They are an absolute blast to play through with a fantastic story.

My son played those and they looked amazing.

The part on Fall of Cybertron when you can repeatedly flatten Megatron with a gigantic iron fist was super satisfying.

Agreed. And the big Trypticon reveal. And whatever treachery Starscream and SoundBlaster were clumsily plotting.

I recall every boss fight being well worth the price of admission.

I tried playing War for Cybertron and the single player campaign did not do it for me. Good art for its day, but the gameplay was generic 3rd person shooter but with extremely stingy ammo rationing and the transforming mechanic that felt like an afterthought.
