In late June, both the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie and video game were released, one after the other.

So it's been a few weeks, but here is Neoseeker's review of the game. Lots of robots, explosions, and really horrible dialogue. Hey, at least it comes with a couple episodes from the '80s cartoon.

The Transformers movies have been receiving a lot of mixed reviews, both from critics, movie-goers and fans of the old cartoon. Developed by Luxoflux, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen video game certainly follows its source more closely than the movies do the original '80s cartoon, but it still carries shortcomings typical of movie-based games.

Let's get the obvious out of the way -- the story is pointless to discuss. Like with most movie video games, the Transformers: ROTF story has been stripped down to its bare bones and simply alludes to the ROTF movie with references to key events and names. All we get are loosely connected missions without much background, so you won't actually know what the Hell is going on unless you saw the movie, except that the Decepticons are up to no good, and the Autobots are trying to stop them. Remember N.E.S.T.? The game constantly refers to the secret military organization without explaining who they are.
