I know Onix and I think HA has played it. Anyone else?
I got it for Xmas and I'm happy with it. Mind you, I will admit, I'm not a huge gamer and I like movie games. Yes I know their suppose to be crap. Its just my tastes I guess.
Anyhow, I see why players prefer the online stuff. The levels on the game are short and not very inspiring. I wish they did more rather then every level city after city. However, the interaction with the city as you drive through it, dodge behind buildings and climb structures is fun! I like the fast action of that and the transforming. Better then the last LA game and the Aramda game. Also smashing through cars, buildings and even humans is fun. Kinda bad if your an Autobot however...
The missions aren't so bad if a little uninspiring. Like I said wish their was more to it. Fighting isn't so bad, I like the weapons and how they switch up. The melee combat could be better if their were more combos rather then punch after punch and the super advance melee.
The cut scenes are lacking. All you do is go back to base and you see characters talk with themselves and comment on your performance.
The only thing I have trouble with is driving. The R2 button on the PS3 has to be held down to drive (also your transforming button), so when you slow down you might also transform by accident. Not what I'm used to.
The thing I find most annoying is Sam's voice. Ugh!
Character wise, I see why reviews said that more characters would of made the game better and their right IMO. I downloaded the DLC and things got better. Playing as G1 Starscream and Optimus Prime is awesome! Love Starscream's power (Megatron as a Gun) and Prime's laser axe.
But the character I like using best as I find he's fast and his weapons are effective is my old time favorite is Jazz! Everyone feels slow, guess cause their big. Bumble Bee doesn't shoot as fast but his EMP blast is effective. Sideswipe fires slow and I hate his mines. Ironhide is awesome for pure power and his back up gun turret is useful. Ratchet can hold his own in a fight. I'd prefer if his sticky grenades blew up on contact but regardless, still a good character. Optimus Prime is of course, strong as hell but I love him in his G1 form the best.
Haven't played too much as the Decepticons with the exception of G1 Starscream. Don't like Sunstorm or the other Decepticon who's name I forget (Long Haul?) with the flame throwers. I like longer range weapons better. Soundwave is pretty cool weapon wise and Megatron is good too. Breakaway, I dunno, lacking something but he moves fast. Now Grindor, I have issues with. Thats cause I can't fly him very well. But I'm going to remedy that in one second as I finish this post. (EDIT: I just figured him out, lots better. Still not the swiftest of characters to move about with)
As for online, lots of fun to just run about, shooting like a mad mech! Plus, you can regenerate and get your power back. Thats the part that gets me, I suck so bad that in mostly all online game I die very fast and easily.
Thats my 2 cents and a 3rd on the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Game. Bring on the War for Cybertron!
