    Like the movie it’s based on, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen isn’t trying to radically change the genre or introduce innovative new features. It’s giving you great-looking robots that go off and fight other great-looking robots as you watch the resulting explosions.

    If you like Transformers, buy this game. Even if you don't (or you just hate Michael Bay), you should still give Optimus Prime a try.

    In spite of the controls, the game offers what the developers promised: frantic gameplay in which you can't stop shooting and transforming while you move quickly through levels full of action.

    Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is a title that almost works.

    Despite a slow start and some lingering issues, Revenge of the Fallen really makes it fun to be a Transformer.

    A huge upgrade over the previous movie-based game in the series. So much so that it is almost a shame to keep comparing the two.

    All together, this is a much better Transformers game than the previous movie tie-in, and probably the best Transformers title I've played on a console to date.

    I got this game hoping that I could relive the fantastic action spectacles off the movie. How wrong I was, I've always liked transformers butI got this game hoping that I could relive the fantastic action spectacles off the movie. How wrong I was, I've always liked transformers but this game doesn't do a very good job with them. Sure its cool that you get to play as your favourite characters like Optimus, bumblebee and Megatron but with combat thats finnicky to use and levels that always feel to crammed, especially if your using an airial character this game just falls. The plot is also very stale and doesn't let you replay the most epic bits of the movie or in the case of the devastator fight, handles them so poorly that there isn't much point. The multiplayer is ok but to get good you have to put more time into this game than it deserves.… Full Review »
