Transformers: The Game
To begin with, the plot is very weak in the movie. The plot in the cartoon was lame as well. But there is clearly a difference between a cartoon for children that is aged and long since off the air, and a movie that goes big time box office bust. But the dudes over at Hollywood always seem to think that if you blow everything up a whole bunch of times, well then that will sell any movie you like. But contrary to this popular Hollywood notion, they forget that sex also sells. So where are all the hot babes?
In a nutshell, Transformers the Game is really lame! That rhymed! The controls will take a few minutes for you to realize that you can transform into some lame-ass vehicle, hover, fly and use two buttons (in most cases) to shoot things. Wow. In another review that I read about this floppy, sloppy game, the reviewer wrote that if you just set the gun to auto fire you could leave the room and come back in three hours and you would have won the game. This should tell you how truly crumby this pathetic game truly is!
Great graphics and fast frame rates (graphics that look nearly identical to the major motion picture) will never make up for the shoddy and boring in-game experience. As if suffering through nearly two hours of this garbage in the movie theater was not enough, these jerks want us to commit another ten hours to their lousy game? And spend another sixty bucks! Yeah right!
“Think Michael Bay meets a pound and a half of real C4 and then takes some toys called Transformers and makes them blow the holy crud out of everything and you will have the right idea in mind for this extreme flop, that followed in the true and deserving manner of the movie. Oh yeah, and what’s that nostalgic flare of food for thought coming back up once again? That’s right, the timeless and almost always true notion of: Games that follow movies SUCK! In reality, great looking graphics and things blowing up all over the place never will make up for the infinite level of suck that is easily demonstrated in this game. If you are looking for a good mech fighter game, veer clear of this one and place your sights on Chromehounds. At least this way you can get your money’s worth!”
My Score: 4.5 out of 10
