I grew up watching the show and they finally did a game that did it justice

So far to date all Transformer games have, well put nicely, SUCKED. This game has great visuals, good voice acting and great transformation animations. I originally rented it cuz a buddy of mine was like its like gears except its transformers. So I'm like I'll give it a rent first and see if its all he says it is.

Well I wish i had bought it. Finally a game that did justice to my childhood show. I really don't get Gamespots review. It does not fit the average at all. Maybe they preferred Go-Bots as a child and were mad Transformers got all the glory. But a 6.5???

The scenery is great. If they were going to show Cybertron in the show it would look like this! You really only seen glimpses of it. Not a full on exploration of it. I have to say its well done. Love the voice acting and hearing Peter Cullen as Optimus. At least some things are still consistent.

This game is way better then a 6.5. Both my children who are 10 and 9 are loving it. They will be the core audience of this game along with us old fogies. I have to say I haven't beaten it yet but I will be returning to the store to purchase this game soon.

    This is another title where we the buyers need to take the reviewers opinions as exactly that, opinion. Personally I think this is a great game for both the single player campaign that you can play co-op (yea!) and the o... Read Full Review
