“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.”
Big corporation: Whoops, we lost this game so we can’t re-release it. Sorry. Even if we found it, it’s not worth our time/money porting it.
Meanwhile, random person on the internet: I’ve updated this emulator so you can play old games at 4k 60fps for free. The weird bug that was never fixed at launch is now gone too.
Cease and desist or we’ll sue you for 100x the money you and your whole family would have made in your lifetimes.
“We have too because it’s just SO expensive to make video games and we’re just struggling companies.” Nintendo said while lighting a cigar with another $100 bill.
Companies do things for money, people do things they’re passionate about
I remember buying War For Cybertron for the PS3 off of a 9/10 review on IGN. This was back when I could only afford to get one or two games a year so it’s mediocrity stung so bad. Was one of my first experiences with buyer’s remorse.
Weird, I remember having an absolute blast with both.
That make sense. I was wondering about this just the other week. I would absolutely pay for and play both the Cybertron games and Devastation again.
Thanks for the share.
They could press a button and make the Steam versions available again, but they obviously also want to port it to the new consoles, and there lies the issue.
I remember playing the one based on the first Michael Bay film when I was really little, I remember the vibe being almost like a Just Cause game in how it was the best destruction sandbox I’d ever played (at that point in time).
I still remember those exploding white ‘power cells’ (?) From the power plant area of the first map.
I played the shit outta the Wii version of that game; it was the best
God I loved Fall of Cybertron as a kid and I even recently snatched up a PS3 copy as I had sold it along with my Xbox 360 way back in the day. It would be amazing to play modern ports of this game (with multiplayer!!!), I hope Activision can find the files again
