    If you're going to play the multiplayer a lot then I don't think €50 is unreasonable. I enjoyed the multiplayer in WfC alot but personally I care about single player more hence it doesn't bother me too much if I wait for a price drop.

    Wave 1 toys have been spotted at retail in the UK.

    .



    This was a false sighting, based on a listing from Asda's website.

    People who did a site to store ended up with Prime DXs instead.

    There's more bad news.


    Looks like FOC Wave 1 is not going to dedicated toy stores at all.

    So you may be looking at Tesco, Argos, and nothing else.

    Saw that too, one large retail outlet will be getting exclusivity. Anybody's best guess who at the moment.


    Kapow Toys in the UK had their order for Wave 1 cancelled on them:

    I love transformers! I love XBoX! I....

    ...still haven't bought this game :confused:

    I just cannot justify spending 50 euro on a game that is 6-7 hours long! I think games like Skyrim and Mass Effect 3 have spoiled me.

    I'm waiting to see it cheaper than 20 euro before buying, or better yet, available for rental.

    Ditto for me. The co op in WFC was worth its weight in gold. I have no need for online competitive games, for reasons we probably share :D so the campaign just isn't enough for me.

    Me too.

    Esp when i could, you know, spend it on actual Transformers instead.

    Maybe I sucked at it but I found that campaign for the last game took a little under 10 hours. Maybe an hour per level on average. It is fairly short but it's one of the very few games I'd consider buying on the strength of the online side.

    Unless you're playing with DooM, then you can add at least another ten hours and many, many deaths.

    I was just trying to add to the value!

    I'd say I blitzed the campaign on easy in under 8 hours.
    Trophy hunting was a different matter...


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,995 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Bought Fall of Cybertron on Sunday. Finished the story mode on Easy last night.

    Really good.

    Now to find all the hidden stuff and maybe play through on Hard.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,237 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Rented it in xtravision for 8 euro for 5 days. On chapter 10 now. Superb game like War for Cybertron. Glad I din't buy it though, but will pick it up when its about 10-15 euro and play MP.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    €8 for five days? That's pretty good. Might do that myself and then pick it up on the cheap at a later date.
    Forgot you could rent games :o

    Yep, very decent. It beats buying for 50 and trading back in for 25! I like games that make it vry enticing to replay through it. When I rebuy, will play on hard, try to get more achievements and made certain choices differently.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    That fury multiplayer expansion pack (includes Hound, retro Prime and the Insecticons) came out today. anyone get it?

    Rented this weekend with the same plan of buying later on, I keep getting distracted by Metroplex! Looks awesome!

    What format was it on for €25 in HMV? I've been waiting for the PS3 version to come down in price.

    I grabbed the Xbox version, didn't go anywhere near the PS3 aisle though!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,163 ✭✭✭Beefy78
