Review | Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Review
Light metal.
Good news: you don't need to have played the last Transformers game, War for Cybertron, to enjoy this sequel to that 2010 third-person shooter. [War for Cybertron is only the last if you ignore last year's film tie-in Dark of the Moon, but ignoring that would probably be for the best - Ed.] It's more a do-over than a sequel, and the essential plot is no more than 'good robots fighting bad robots as their home planet dies'.

Feature | Oh Mann! Team Fortress 2 Nails Co-op
Valve keeps on giving with Mann Vs. Machine - and continues to show how free-to-play should be done.
The thing about real-world robots is that they suck. I was raised on a diet of Transformers and Terminator, where stomping machines clank around, whirr into supercool jetplanes and goop through helicopter windows. Back in reality, scientists waste their time fannying about with particles they can't even see and lack the basic skills to make a robot walk like a human. Screw that.

Tearaway Preview: World of Papercraft
Media Molecule arrives on Vita with this charming pulp fiction.
Sometimes it's easy to convince yourself that games are built from nothing more than gore, gunmetal and concrete, so it's always pleasant to be reminded that they can be conjured from other things too. Media Molecule's output has always been cut from a different cloth - the felt, cardboard and cotton of LittleBigPlanet going hand in hand with the series' DIY ethos.
