This game seems short..

[Risotto]

Is it?

I'm enticed, but it only has 5 characters. How long is it? Was kind of hoping Decepticons would be playable.

[CrunchyBiscuit]

It's short. If you're experienced, you might be able to complete it in three hours or so. There are no playable Decepticons.

Fun comes from optimizing your gameplay, not getting hit, getting the most out of every confrontation and getting the hang of the five different Autobots.

Might wait for christmas sale then. Maybe they will have character DLC by then.

this sounds like crap....like saying the FUN from being beaten up is how many broken ribs you can avoid getting

3-4 hours gameplay from a game asking for £30 is an insult

Is this your first time you've heard of Platinum Games? Their games rely on replayability. Of course it's gonna be bad value for your money if you play through it once and never touch it again.

easy pass then basically

when games companies do this its just them being lazy and not really putting any proper replay value into the game itself. Comgratualtions...........you completed a 4 hour game.....your reward? please play the game all over again from the begining...or maybe on hard mode unless you have already done the 1st play on hard mode which means there no actual point to replaying the game

I knew this game was gona suck the minute i realised all the levels were the exact same. Platinum Games? more like Platinum scams

Or you can play on Commander and spent way more than 3 hours if you start a new game without any gear.

The first time I beat Half-Life 2 it took me less than 6 hours. Hurr durr, Valve lazy. You beat a 5 hour game. Your reward: No replay value whatsover, here are a bunch of the exact same puzzles with the exact same combat.
Spectacle fighters like Transformers: Devastation on the other hand change enemy setup, movesets, damage, make evade framewindows shorter etc.. This has way more replay value than 99% of triple A games.

If you never replay games, then maybe worry about the 5 hours. I find that shorter games are much more fun to replay. The only reason I would replay it is if I liked the game. I could care less about collectibles. Portal, Mirror's Edge, Heavenly Sword, Portal 2, Tron Evolution...all short games that I've replayed a half dozen times or more.

[Mazi7]

So how many chapters ?

[Grimjack]

$10 maybe; $5 I'll take it!

I think there were seven. It went by so fast it's hard to care to remember exactly. lol

[Risotto]

The character roster just seems sooo small. Like only 5 characters? Really?

[The Snacrifice]

Platinum games are generally short, but have high replayability and put a lot of money into game feel over game story.

You're not meant to get 'everything' in one run. You use a run to get all the stuff you need to be badass, then go back and find all the easter eggs.

That's a large roster for these types of games, with dozens of moves and animation cycles, that need to be plugged into every weapon, and their various transformations.

I've played a good 10 hours of the game none of the characters feel the same at all and do actually play differently.

[Risotto]

I look at games like Sengoku Basara and Dynasty Warriors and their rosters are 10x this.
