Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen

After going to see the film in the pictures (review coming soon) i was blown away by all the action, explosions, hotness (all down to the Fox) and of course the over the top fighting sequences between the cgi jugganauts the autobots and decepticons, and i thought id like a piece of the action by buying the game but as is the case with many movie games it was utterly terrible..let me explain.

first of all the graphics are dreadfull it looks like you are playing a ps2 game ON A PS3 and granted their are more robots to play as in this game each one looks as bad as each other, the environments are pretty big but they lack detail and substance i mean your playing as a huge ass kicking robot but you can't damage buildings. speaking of ass kicking yes you can do combos but their is only one button combo SQAURE-SQUARE-SQUARE and thats it no grapples which is pretty stupid as they feature pretty heavily in the film, the rest of the time your either running / driving / flying away which… more »

This game is a prime example of why game developers should stop making lackluster movie games just to make a quick profit from the film, they should spend longer than 9 months making a game to release like eidos who didnt make a dark knight game instead they making BATMAN ARKHAM ASYLUM which looks stunning and its not even finished. Basically go and see the film it looks a million times better and you'll enjoy it a million times more.
