The game does look competent at some points, but it's hardly an evolution for the franchise. Here was a chance for Activision to really take its Transformers game to the next level, and instead we're just getting the same old auto-fluff. There were disappearing characters and frame rate issues with the game, especially the Xbox One version. Sure, there's action, but very little variety Recycling, anyone?Ĭase in point: the environments and action look poor and are riddled with technical problems. However, in terms of new content, Dark Spark has very little to offer. Watching Starscream go crazy in jet mode and blast targets out of the sky is good stuff, and it's always a joy hearing Peter Cullen pump energy into the voice of Optimus Prime (and, for that matter, Frank Welker do his thing, particularly as Soundwave). Where Dark Spark feels best is when it tries to emulate the successful Transformers antics of old. Throughout the adventure, you'll not only play as select Autobots, but also a few Decepticons, who have their own little power jaunt when it comes to taking control of the piece. Unfortunately, that holder is Lockdown, who acquires the piece early in the game. The game's plot revolves around the Dark Spark, a magical piece of tech that grants the holder the ability to bend the universe's will however they please, including slowing down time. That's not to say Edge of Reality is incompetent, but you can just feel some of the magic is missing from this sequel, especially when it comes to current-gen versions. That's like replacing a favorite bartender who knew how to mix your drinks so well with some old fuddy-duddy that can barely produce a margarita you don't want. Activision placed that studio on Call of Duty and opted Edge of Reality to take over development on this new adventure. The only problem? It's not a High Moon Studios development. Both War For Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron served as a tremendous backbone for adventures to come, and left us hopeful for the latest release in the series, Rise of the Dark Spark. But then came High Moon Studios, which reinvigorated the franchise with its original Cybertron entries. release the PlayStation 2 game was acceptable, but hardly fan-worthy and the movie-licensed games were nothing more than, well, movie-licensed games. The NES game was so atrocious it didn't get a U.S. The weapon does only 1 point of damage to most enemies (relying on multiple strikes to be effective), but enemies under the "Flying" and "Bird" categories instead receive 3 points of damage per hit.At one point in time, the Transformers games weren't really that special. Mega Man's palette has also been changed to be distinct from his regular colours, which are used for the only known existing piece of official Spark Chaser artwork. Due to the game using a larger resolution than the Game Boy's screen, its speed has been increased to cover more distance, and four can be on-screen now instead of just one. The Spark Chaser is one of the weapons voted to appear in Make a Good Mega Man Level 3. It is a laser weapon that can change direction, homing in on the nearest enemy, and can hit multiple times. The Spark Chaser (スパークチェイサー Supāku Cheisā) is Terra's Special Weapon from Mega Man V. It is your destiny! This article contains content on an upcoming game.
