  1. The best video game adaptation to date of the live action Transformers movie. The bad news is that it’s still not saying much.

Now, I did play it a lot when I was a kid, but even without the nostalgia goggles, it is a very fun game. The missions are fun and have great replayability, the combat system is fairly good, and I probably spent quite a bit of time customizing my character. Not to mention it had a freeplay mode that I probably spent hours on. The only real downside in my opinion is the graphics, which aren't the most detailed in the world. Overall, I would definitely recommend this game. Full Review »

    Decent stab at a GTA style open environment, but given the choice between this and the real deal it's absolutely no contest.

If you at least liked the first Transformers film from Micheal Bay, I think you'll find some serious fun out of this one. While this game follows the movie’s plot, it actually alters to accommodate the inclusion of your own Autobot character, who is not within the movie.

    You can choose from many different vehicle forms upon scanning them AND change up their color palette, and free to roam open worlds for you to do as you see fit including fight random Decepticons.
    There were a few challlenges and hard missions within the game, but it was overall very fun and I would recommend this game, Decepticon version included. (Matter of fact, out of this game, Revenge of the Fallen, and Dark of the Moon, I'd put this game at the top of the list.)
    The only real downsides I see are the graphics aren't great, and post-game there isn't all that much to do.
