Customer Review: One shall stand, One shall fall
When the 2007 live-action Transformers movie was released, it was inevitable that it, like all other big blockbuster titles, would receive a video game adaption, the question however was; would it be good or bad. Well, the answer is both yes and no, Transformers has a very easy concept to turn into a video game and more recently we have started to see an improvement in video game movie tie-ins (King Kong, Spiderman 2, Batman Begins), however, of course a great movie can always make for a bad video game. Now as for the concept, the storyline is based on that of the movie, in which the Transformers have come to Earth searching for the Allspark, the ultimate source of power in the known universe and the very thing that created them. There are several characters you get to play as, each with varying strengths and different alternate modes. The highlight of the game, is that you get to choose which side you can play as. You choose either the Autobots, the heroic group sworn to protect all life, or the Decepticons, whose only purpose is to destroy and conquer. Now, the gameplay differs onsiderably between each faction, the Decepticons campaign probably gets the higher props in the ‘fun’ factor, seeing as though most of their campaign involves destroying everything in sight. The Autobots campaign is more made up of racing around to areas within a certain time limit. Both campaigns have a good deal of shooting, driving, fighting and exploring. Graphics wise, the game looks quite good, the in-game models look very close to the CG movie models excellent designs. There is also quite a bit of detail put into the environments. The cutscenes are mostly hit-and-miss, some look great (especially the final ones and the intro), whilst some look severely rushed. As for interaction, the Transformers interact with their environments very well, they can climb, jump and move at such a freedom no other Transformers game has allowed. Add to the fact they can transform into various vehicles further expands that freedom. The game also contains some very impressive destructible environments, with debree thrown everywhere in quite a realistic fashoin when a building is destroyed. You can also use certain parts of the environment as weapons. Now as for gameplay, this is where the game has most of it’s problems. Driving feels quite good, as you can boost and shoot at the same time. The game also has a melee combat system which allows for the Transformers to go hand-to-hand with each other. However, much of the combat can feel simplistic, especially when you appear to use the same strategy against a differing foe. As for shooting, it’s only really useful against weaker enemies and Human-based vehicles, the stronger oponents usually block every shot with the only effect being to slow them down a bit. Only a few weapons, such as Blackout’s EMP blasts or Ironhide’s cannons, seem to have any effect on the stronger foes. This is where you can use pieces of the environment, like other cars, lamposts etc. as weapons which does add slightly to the gameplay value. The sound feels quite well done, one musical score in particular felt movie-quality and the sounds of the explosions, transformations and weapon fire, don’t feel too bad at all. It’s probably the voice-acting in the cutscenes that were done the poorest. For nostalgic value, not only has Peter Cullen, who voiced Optimus Prime in the original series and the new movie, recorded lines for the game, but also Frank Welker, the original voice of Megatron, lended his talents. Now, admittidly whilst it was good to hear it again in the role after so many years, his voice doesn’t quite fit the look and attitude of the frightening and viscious movie Megatron (voiced in the movie by Hugo Weaving). Added to the value is that professional voice actor/live actor Keith David provides the voice for the Decepticon, Barricade. Shia Labeouf and Megan Fox also lend their voices for the game, although in all honesty, they really don’t sound like they were trying much, with Megan Fox sounding more like a ditz than she ever truly has done. For fans of the series, not only do you get to play as many Transformers characters on either side, but the game also has added characters not seen in the movie (ala the Spider-Man adaptions) and also plenty of bonus features for replay value. All in all, whilst this could have been much better, it is fairly enjoyable while it lasts and to date, is the most complete Transformers gaming experience (as good as Atari’s excellent PS2 title was, it lacked much of the interaction present in this game and also many of the enemies lacked the ability to transform, even though in most other areas, is all-in-all a better game) All-in-all, this game won’t please everybody, but as a fan, I enjoyed it for what it was, simplistic, mindless fun. Graphics: 4/5 Gameplay: 3/5 Sound: 4/5 Extras: 4/5 Replay value: 3/5
Customer Review: Transform and roll out.
I bought this game cause i loved Transformers when i was a kid and i loved the movie. I must say i find it very entertaining and funny. Not a masterpiece like Halo or something like that, but it as great transformations and you can control all the famous bots of the series. Great game for transformers fans.
