  • Summary: The fate of the earth and the survival of the human race hang in the balance in the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen video game for the Wii and PS2. Playing as both the AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS, players are propelled into an adrenaline-pumping battle for supremacy across the globe where every second and every choice makes the difference between mankind’s salvation and annihilation. Recruit a Friend to Join the Battle in Unique Co-op Campaigns - At any point in the intense single-player campaign, a friend can join in as a "Remote Weapon System," acting as a floating shield to defend you and as a special weapons system to strengthen the assault. Test Your Skills in the All-New Co-op Arena Mode - Teamwork is key as players enter the new Arena mode to pick their favorite characters and fight alongside their friends arcade-style against increasing waves of enemies.

  1. Wii gamers will certainly enjoy a game that was built just for them, and Transformers fans will love the attention to detail their franchise has been given.
  2. Provides a few hours of beat-'em-up/shooting action encased in a well-presented if corny story. The Wii isn't exactly teeming with playable action titles these days, so it might be worth a shot when you finish The Conduit this month.
  3. A mediocre action game that should have had more time to get polished. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen feels unfinished, with the same repetitive missions and missing cutscenes.
  4. This bland, uninspired adventure will probably make your wrist hurt. Fortunately, it's over quickly.

    Explosions aren't quite big enough to go along with a Bay film. Besides that, perfect!
  2. So this is based on the movie, this is a fairly standard third-person brawler like Prime: The Game. You play as the Transformers, There are autobots and deceptions. The fighting is split into three different styles. This game is like all the bad things about bad third- party Wii games rolled into one. The graphics are meh, but it was ported by the PS2 so the graphics could be bleh. The controls aren't really good as well, You also can't transform at anytime as well. In the PS3 and Xbox 360 version you could decide which side to play as, but in the Wii version you can't. The combat is also dull, But really the newer transformer game the prime does it alot better. The game is sometimes fun though, but it's really worth a rent if you want to try it out. Don't buy it, just rent it. Expand
