Picked it up yesterday and have played through about half of the autobots campaign. Got to play as Bumblebee, Ironhide and Prime (By far the best) through 3 missions broken into several chapters each. Things like, get to this marker killing Decpticons enroute, protect this target, get to this marker, get to this marker, GET TO THIS MARKER. The gameplay is so limited that I think its safe to say you have seen the full repetoire after about 2 chapters.
There are some good points though, Prime sounds great, the robot and vehicle models for the Autobots and Decepticons are perfect recreations of their movie look and the feel very weighty during combat. These however are not to rescue the game from the overall mediocre feel in almost every other section.
The projectile weapons the robots use are totally different from the movie (Prime dual wields pistols, WTF) and dont feel very good. I was hoping to get a button for weapon switching so I could see the arm transform before using it but no, instead if the Autobot / Decepticon goes to use a weapon or melee attack that requires parts to reform it just does it as part of the move and you are lucky to catch a glimpse of what is no doubt quite a cool animation.
The only thing stopping me from throwing this away is the boss fights... I have 3 so far, one with Barricade, one with Blackout and one with Shockwave (Who has a fantastic look based on his G1 model but updated) and they have been the highlights of the game. Am hoping the finale and the upcoming boss fights will keep this interesting but at the moment everything in between the boss stuff just puts me to sleep.
And you cant transofmr mid-air going from robot to vehicle but you can the other way round so that is quite good, but overall I aint impressed.
