Transformers, and all that jazz

Despite the cute exterior, 505 Games’ Naughty Bear has been compared to Manhunt and has a 16+ age rating. Why all the violence, you ask? It’s because Naughty Bear wasn’t invited to another bear’s birthday party. It’s by the developers behind sleeper hit WET, so it might be worth a look despite the fact it hasn’t been reviewed yet .

Without a movie to tie-in into, Activision’s Transformers: War For Cybertron has turned out somewhat better than the last two Transformers games. Reviews suggest that it pays a great amount of fan-service and that the banter between robots is brilliant. However, it’s also quite short and the AI is dumber than Metal Mickey. I played the online beta for a bit, which plays a bit like Call of Duty with kill streaks, XP and the like. It’s much easier to get a kill though. While we’re on the subject of licensed games, LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is out this week too.

Product Description

Jazz is equipped with a photon rifle, missiles, and a missile launcher. Jazz serves the function of Special Operations Agent. He was part of Primeâ?TMs original crew, a loyal comrade, a varying wellspring of positive morale, and an all around well-balanced warrior. Also, voiced by Scatman Crothers, Jazz shared a voice with Hong Kong Phooey, and thatâ?TMs just cool. In the course of Transformers: The Movie, Jazz was manning one of the Cybetronian moons when Unicron arrived with the intention of turning the moon into an all-you-can-eat buffet. Luckily, though, Jazz and a few other Autobots were rescued before they could be dropped into Unicronâ?TMs digestive foundry.
