The TRANSFORMERS are back, and this time they're in the hands of acclaimed developer PlatinumGames, who has married their over-the-top, stylish action with a major dose of nostalgia to create a TRANSFORMERS game like none other. The AUTOBOTS face off against DECEPTICONS when MEGATRON discovers a way to harness the enormous power of Plasma Energy to Cyberform Earth.
- Surprise your enemy: PlatinumGames signature fast action allows instant robot to vehicle attacks, slam downs, counterattacks, and infinite combos for a unique master combat system.
- Five playable AUTOBOTS: Wreak havoc on the DECEPTICONS as OPTIMUS PRIME, BUMBLEBEE, SIDESWIPE, WHEELJACK and GRIMLOCK.
- Actors from the original TV series: Reprising their roles are Peter Cullen (OPTIMUS PRIME), Dan Gilvezan (BUMBLEBEE), Frank Welker (MEGATRON and SOUNDWAVE), and more.
- Play again and again: 5 difficulty levels with overhauls in enemy composition, combined with a deep customization system, means hours of intense gameplay.

HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Edit: I already stated this in the Amazon thread, but here's some repeating - especially as it's finally worth picking up if you've ever been on the fence: Great game, although it really should have been around this price when it launched. I bought it Day One from Game with the added DLC for £30 so don't feel short changed at all (despite its 8 hour campaign)... It also helps that I'm a G1 Transformers fan.

Worth it at this price. Bit of an over-rated game, but the nostalgia kicks in and it's an alright romp.

More like, underrated considering its popularity isn't that grand as Platinum Games would have hoped for. It's a shame because it really is a phenomenal game. :disappointed:

Not at all overrated. Rated according in my opinion. A solid but short(ish) game with plenty replay value...bags of charm. Highly recommend - particularly at this price.

Aren't the others all just 3rd person shooters? This one is about mech brawls which is awesome.

Gameplay is great but besides that the story is very short and not very varied at all. M
Saying that it's probably worth this price.

Picked it up for £20 at Game a few weeks back... knew that was a mistake as it's still in its wrapper!! Curse you, Fallout 4!

Phenomenal is massively over-rating it.
Popularity for Platinum Games is a hard thing to come by, but I've been hearing this be compared to Vanquish and Bayonetta 2 and it doesn't even come close to either.

On a related note, I interviewed Kenji Saito (Director of the game along with MGS: Revengeance) and Robert Conkey (Activision, Producer) which you can read below:
