Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Ok so,you got a fairly weak single player,but,if you are like me,you don't buy games to play single player. I bougth it for the multiplayer and it's fun IF you have friends or make some to play with,you don't want to be in a game trying to fight them all solo. There is a slight issue with people quitting and the teams being lopsided,but that's usually when you're kicking their butt.

The single player is basically a run and gun. You got people saying there isn't enough to do, yet the list that you have to defend this,destroy that,kill this boss,protect this person,transport this person, blow up this blow up that and they say it isn't enough? What more could you expect? Puzzles? This is Transformers not dang Bejewled. The single player is only good for the unlockables, you can unlock vintage episodes of the transformers cartoons, kinda like walking down memory lane when you get bored or can't be tied to the control for the 15 minutes ish it takes for a ranked match.

There are several multiplayer modes, but the problem is that this game has the movie game stigma and everyone assumes it sucks, and granted the single player isn't the greatest but it serves it's purpose. If you like Chromhounds online you'll like Transformers2. It's very similar except that,you can transform and get around a heck of a lot quicker and you can't customize like you can your hounds.

The multiplayer is balanced pretty well,nothing is too overpowering so you dont get everyone picking the same transformer. You can pretty much pick what you think is fun and do well on most maps. The only thing that would have me questioning the longevity of the online play is the mere lack of people playing the game, like I said, it has the movie game stigma and lots of people seem to be staying away, so that scares me that a day could come when you try to search for a game and there simply aren't any, but thats months and months away.

My opinion=Singleplayer=3 Multiplayer=9 out of 10

I liked everything about the game. I just thought it was a little to easy...although i didn't really listen to the story because i saw the movie before i rented so...yeah. But other than being to easy i was very satisfied by the gaming controls, graphics were alright (even though i wasn't expecting to much from it), i didn't really here much as sounds goes like the transforming sound soi guess sound could be bad but i don't really care was still a good game and should be rented.

The campaign is pretty good and the unlockables are cool. The multiplayer is actually pretty fun.. i'm glad they added multiplayer to this. The multiplayer modes are all fun, and the gameplay is very smooth and consistent. Again.. very fun to play. I could see how this game could have been better... but that would only happen if Epic had made it.. LOL.. in my honest opinion you should all give it a chance. Quit looking for flaws when playing and just have FUN!!

I liked this very simple game. It's one of those games you like to play after playing complicated thinkers where everything that can possibly go on at once is jammed into a moment.

Although I'm not a "huge" childhood fan of Transformers the game was entertaining especially to get the achievements. If your not after the achievements then good luck trying to find something exciting about this simple and clean game.

Its a movie game, no more no less. All it is shoot some robots and repeat. Overall its fun but it has me wishing for a G1 Transformers game to get made. I also felt it tried not to spoil the movie, so there really not a story. The control are kinda hard to get use to , but the stupid AI makes targets easy to kill. There is a lack of characters to select from. I would of love to see a created a Transformer option or at least some customization or a hidden Transformer to unlock. If you want to pop it in and shoot some robots than its for you, but if you want something with more depth and a challenge you may want to skip this one.

This game is awful; it is so repetitive that it will not hold your attention past the 2nd mission. My 5 year old nephew was thoroughly entertained by it because he can transform and drive around as Bumble Bee or Optimus Prime. I however was not. The controls are cumbersome and you have to hold the RT to stay transformed. This becomes annoying when you are just trying to drive around. If you decelerate to much you are back in robot mode. So it’s either go really fast in vehicle mode or keep transforming into robot mode trying to go at a controlling pace. I say thank the heavens for Game Fly for sparing me the purchase of this game. This is most definitely a renter. I would recommend this one for anyone over the age 6. I would rather play Candy Land than this game.

Why can't they just make a good Transformers game? This game solidifies the assumption that movie games are rushed, short, repetitive, and generally not fun to play. Whoever thought it would be a good idea to hold down RT to transform needs to have thier job(s) evaluated. Bland graphics, horrible controls, repetitive missions, no plot, cräp (stupid language filter) voice overs, and the list goes on. Thank goodness I rented this instead of wasted $60 + tax to buy this. Trust me, stay far away from this one.

Upon tossing this game in for the first time it was mildly entertaining. The action comes in waves and is fast-paced. Unfortunately, the controls get a bit clunky, with different buttons mapped to the same functions (i.e. X to shoot in vehicle mode, hold LT, press RT to fire in robot mode). Also the "return to home base after every mission" aspect of the game was a real turn-off, and made the entire thing feel non-linear.

Do not recommend.

Boring and repetitive. Even if it had been interesting, the single player campaign can be completed in a few hours at the most. And the missions being timed? Who's lousy idea what that? Glad I didn't buy this.

The story(Offline) isn't that good. The multiplayer(online) is the only thing good about this game. If you don't have xbox live i don't think you should get it. Hope this helped you decide.

This game starts out very exciting, but quickly becomes repetitive and boring. There is a limited amount of different enemies to engage with. After the first couple of levels it is hard to maintain an interest in this game.

The control were clunky at first, then once you get a hang of them, the game has no challenge to it. It seems as though, they rushed to get it out. Story was weak, i hate playing games about movies.... it was just overly disappointing...

This game had real possibilities. I would have given it a higher rating except that the single player missions are so repetitive it got old really fast. The combat is a bit frustrating since the enemies only seem interested in running away from you. This causes issues when you are in trying to beat the clock and you have to chase down enemies all over the map to continue.

The Camera is all over the place. While attacking enemies I frequently lost them as the camera jumped around. This especially happens when you get up close to melee them. Very frustrating when you have to circle around just to orient yourself again to the enemy position.

The best part of the game was unlocking the old-school transformers cartoons. I found myself watching these then not wanting to go back to the gameplay.

The worst part, maybe just a pet peeve, is on escort missions. The escorted party is always yelling at you to come save them, help them, don't leave the convoy, don't go hunting, where are you, etc...etc... It's nonstop, even when they have full health they are screaming bloody murder. I had to turn the sound down just to concentrate.

I didn't even finish the campain before I returned it because I only foresaw more of the same gameplay the 1st half of the game provided. The same repetitive levels chasing down enemies that run away from you.

this game is a movie cash in game at it's worst even if you are a transformer fan the boring drawn out and repetitive missions will upset and frusterate you to the point of madness i feel sorry for any poor soul who actually bought this horrible game. All i did was rent it and i am still very upset by the experience

P.s. the multiplayer also sucks!

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, by far has to be one of the worst games I have ever, and will ever play. For starters the controls could not have be planned any worse, at least in the first Transformers game, it was a single button press to transform, and not a constant, depressed trigger. The combat applications, were also quite horrible, trying to aim at an enemy, further than what appears in the game to be 100 meters, is almost. You'd have a better chance of getting struck by lightning than hitting any opposing flying forces out of the sky. I believe that, when the production company of this game decided to make this title, they wanted to rush it out of the door, as soon as they could just to make as much money as possible.

SUCKED

the game is alright..just the controls ruin the game...too much confusion

The "Yawn" Factor. And Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has it.

Pros: it's pretty. The graphics are detailed and vivid.
- I did enjoy the G1 episodes that are part of the unlockables. More for the nostalgia than anything.

Cons: Where to begin:
- As one who enjoys campaign play to be immerse and engaging, this campaign doesn't even come close to doing that. Both campaigns are broken into missions that are loosely joined, if at all. Coupled with the fact that the average play time for a mission is about 5 minutes, there is barely any continuity in the storyline.
- What can save a weak storyline, though, are great cut scenes. This game has one. Not even one "great cut scene", just one cut scene.
- Each mission is played in a zone. These zones are relatively small and after completing half the missions, you begin to feel a little cramped wondering if you'll ever get a zone you can really explore.
- I hated the controls. I know control layout varies from mfg and games to their respective counterparts. But let's agree on one standard: Right-trigger always shoots. To couple it with the transforming action (and then tie it to the vehicle speed) in addition to the weapon only made it very confusing at times.
- The dialogue is weak. Mikaela and Sam's parts are irritating to listen to. Especially Sam's. You also have the transformers conversing with themselves in between missions. The idea is that their dialogue will vary in relation to your performance. The result is a very disjointed conversation that will eventually bore you to tears.

3/10

If this was a XBLA game download, I would understand the quality of this game. But if you paid 60 bucks for this puke I'm sorry for you. I rented it and returned it the next day. Terrible. Controls are the worst I've seen since Pro Paintball 2005, stupid missions. They say Destroy those enemies, drive here, drive there, destroy that guy, drive here drive there. Multiplayer not even worth it. I thought Transformers the game could and would be much better with the sequel, but boy was I wrong.

this is an awesome game. it is really good. if you dont ave this game you should get it. the game is soo good im ganna buy it probobly.but seriously the game is almost as good as the movie. you get to be practically everyone. and you can also be decepticons!!

i would rate this game at a 10 out of 10!!

the game was good but, it was too fast. I like playing with the transformers but besides that it was okay, i was disappointed.

I enjoyed playing this game a lot. It was not OMG!! special, but i had a really great time playing it. Transformers offers players to get in the movie and cruise around or fly around i a 3d virtual world of the Transformers. The graphics are really great ill say 9/10 the gameplay is kinda sour ill give it a 5/10, the amount of fun i had ill give an 8/10. this is not a game i would consider buying. i had fun playing it, but like all games it got boring quickly. this game doesn't have very much to offer, what i mean is the missions are all the same kill your enemy's and get away, occasionally you will come across a mission where you have to find a person and bring them back to safety. Ironically they drop you right next to the location where you are suppose to find the Person. And the loading and the waiting is just not worth it, but i had fun playing it, but i wouldn't play it again. Thanks i hope i helped.

Not to bad of a game. the campaign mode is really cool but the time to get gold medal is little to fast but hey I got them lol because im a gamer. If you like transformer you will love the game.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is pretty good. It's repetitive and it's very restricting, but it's better than the first game based on the films. I'd recommend it to a child or someone that doesn't play games often.
