The game has janky controls, mission timers and fail conditions it will never display on-screen, allied AI units are either absent or quite useless, and every single mission begins with the camera panning around your mech for no good reason. Many of the weapons are questionable at best and they never give you enough ammo. You are rushed through most missions, and spend most of the game on defense, having to protect a civilian population you've been given no reason to care about or any attachment to. Finally, your commanding officer is often not helpful when a voiceline from him would be useful, and I will not tolerate his condescending tone when a mission is failed.
The good parts of the game are a varied weapon arsenal, and decent destruction effects for the tech utilized back when this was made.
Conclusion: If you must have a PC game with transforming jets, I would recommend Transformers War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron over this game any day. Even with what tech and knowledge they had back when Gun Metal was created, they could have made a far higher quality game, a longer game, and a more technically competent game.
At best, it's a 4/10. At worst, it scores 2/10.
Gun Metal is a classic. I grew up playing this game on disc with my mom's old Acer work laptop. It works fairly decent on modern hardware and is still a lot of fun to play.
The game is very simple and has a basic two stage combat mode. Play either as a jet or a mech and switch at any point in battle. Both modes have rockets and a slowly unlocking arsenal across all the missions. Weapons are unique to each form and have a variety of uses from ground missiles to aerial flack guns and pulse weapons.
It all culminates in a fun little ending that I remember fondly. You won't be blown away but this game is a lot of fun and does what it sets out to do, blow shit up.
A childhood classic
Does one thing and does it well.
Very dated, but also very charming. A respectable price for what it is, and runs fine out of the box. Recommended
I feel like Starscream
10/10 its an old but good
I first got the physical copy of this game for free from a newspaper back in the day and used to play alot but never had time to finish it and lost the copy i had after a while
after years later i finally found this masterpiece that i've been looking for so long, totally worth the money and the memories.
This game is legitimately so awesome. Yes, it is dated in some aspects. But the gameplay is so incredibly fun, and the transformation from mech to jet is near seamless.
The levels start off pretty basic, but then eventually escalate to being full on battlefields where you have multiple points to attack and defend, leading to a natural and exciting difficulty increase that prevents the game from ever feeling stale. I also like how the levels are purposefully set up to motivate the player to use both mech form and jet form, and not essentially forcing you to stay in one form to get the level completed. New enemy types and new weapons are introduced with each level, which once again, keeps the game exhilarating to play from start to finish. It is a short game, but one that can be replayed every couple years because it is just such a fun and tight knit experience.
It's a shame the studio is long gone and that we will more than likely never see a sequel to this. I'd love for someone to buy the IP for cheap or create a spiritual successor to this, as it is unironically the best Transformers game without Transformers
This was one of my favorite games back in the day, still has a cool promise but as an adult cracks are really obvious. Terrible performance (30fps lock), zero world building and story, no emphasis on any of the characters, tidieous level design with no checkpoints and many more problems make this a hard game to recommend. Still, it holds a charm for me due to nostalgia, and as I stated before the games premise is still kinda cool. I wouldn't recommend it if you never played it, definietly give a try if you played it before.
I've got 3 copies of Gun Metal on disc - bought quite a few graphics cards over the years, for a while, they all came bundled with this game...
And now I own it on Steam too.
Worth it.
