    Transformers Prime on the Wii is still a good game and I do recommend giving it a shot, but if you already have the 3DS version, you're pretty much getting the same game again.

    Transformers Prime does a decent job in terms of gameplay, but it's way too short and simple.

    Overall, Transformers Prime is decent game for a system in its twilight years. My two biggest gripes for this title are the lack of graphical fidelity, which could not be helped, and not allowing the player to use a classic controller. A multiplayer mode is also available, but it just feels like a tacked-on bonus for two players. However, if you can look past those things, Transformers Prime offers a solid gameplay experience. Nintendo Wii owners can finally have a decent game worthy of the Transformers name.

    Although there are flaws in the games design, for dedicated Transformers: Prime followers there is some fun to be had here. At the end of the day, for young fans of the Transformers Prime series this game is a fairly good choice; however, for older fans a weekend rental will probably suffice.

    As a whole, Transformers Prime: The Game is a decent, if imperfect licensed title that will not long last in the collective memory of Wii owners, but it still deserves some honorable mention for actually being fun, a word that could not be properly applied to any of its Transformer forebears on Wii.

    It's a competent tie-in with plenty of goodies for fans of the series.

    If you're not a fan of the series, you don't need to play. You can leave the game without finishing it.

The gameplay can get a bit repetitive, but the story and characters are genuine and feel just like the show. Multiplayer is actually pretty fun. It would have been nice if the combat was a bit deeper, but all in all a great game. Full Review »

But the controlls would have been better on xbox, ok graphics, and dull combat. Full Review »
