You can carry a primary and an heavy weapon (of which there are exactly zero new weapons since Fall of Cybertron) and can turn into a vehicle at the click of a button. The best thing I can say about the gameplay is that it gets pretty much all the basics right, but I wonder how much of that is true because it just reuses all the mechanics from Fall of Cybertron. These aren’t the only bugs you’ll be fighting in this game I question how Grimlock managed to end up on Earth after Fall of Cybertron specifically showed him stuck on Cybertron. As expected, the pairing of plots makes little sense and elements used for the Earth stuff completely clashes with what’s used for the Cybertron stuff.
In that segment it’s pretty much the same plot, only replace “Decepticons” with “Lockdown” and set it at some point during Age of Extinction. The second part of the game, however, takes place years later on Earth and tries to hastily and sloppily connect the Cybertron games to the Michael Bay movies. For this segment the Decepticons are trying to secure a weapon called the Dark Spark that allows them to control other transformer’s minds, while the Autobots are trying to stop them. The first takes places on Cybertron and between War For Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron, which kind of stinks because Fall of Cybertron ended on a cliffhanger that will not be (and probably never be) resolved. Rise of the Dark Spark follows two stories.
Spark in the dark ps4 series#
Edge of Reality, taking over for High Moon (who was too busy porting Advance Warfare or something), managed to take a beloved series and hand us one of the most pitiful third person shooters I have ever played. Words like confusing, broken, generic, glitchy, boring, muddled, or just flat out bad, but soulless is the one that comes to mind first. Oh sure, there’s a bunch of other words I can use to describe Rise of the Dark Spark as well. Yet at the conclusion of Rise of the Dark Spark I was sitting there with little to say other than soulless. This is a word I’ve almost never used to describe games before. There may be differences between versions. Reviewer’s note: I played the PlayStation 4 version of this game. Developer: Edge of Reality (Main versions), WayForward Technologies (3DS Version)Īvailable on: Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Wii U, PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One
