@@TFOutdoors Except the Brawl vs Ironhide fight. The mf had so much health I only beat the mission when he fell into a gap next to a building and couldn't move or hit me.
Having your own custom bot for both DS versions is the most slept on concept, no other transformers DS game or console game had that idea (except for the multiplayer of WFC AND FOC), it was so much fun being your own bot
@@fromaguezit's not the same, and on top of that the autobot and the decepticon you play as barely talk that much, the create a bot and construct o con talk more and have more personality
The free roam aspect of both console/DS versions was such a major selling point in making the first movie games memorable. I was so disappointed in 2009 when Revenge of the Fallen didn’t even bother to build up on that.
As a kid I was like "Eww, why even bother playing it then, if it has no open world?". I was a type of kid who would spend hours roaming aroung the world in GTA, casusing a random chaos, day by day, not giving a damn thing about plot missions, and I liked to do the same thing in the first Transformers The Game, especially playing Jazz in the first location, because his small size made the town feel a bit bigger
In the DS versions, I like how the protagonist of the Autobot version meets up with the protagonist of the Decepticon version and one kills the other depending on which version is being played. The one you play as wins and the other just dies. It really makes the story basically the same but with branching conclusions.
Honestly, if we could have had the presentation of the console version with the story and customisation options of the DS version, it might have actually been one of the best Transformers games we've ever gotten. The Decepticon storyline is *fascinating* as they explore how each major player in the faction interprets their "might makes right" philosophy. Barricade in particular is a *shockingly* fleshed out character in the DS version, being absolutely loyal to Megatron because he is the strongest, the most cunning and the one who commands the most respect as a leader. But he also takes your character under his wing almost like a mentor when he doesn't have to, teaching you what the Decepticons are all about and warning you not to trust Starscream for your own good. He genuinely CARES about the other faction members, but the Decepticon creed comes first; and *it doesn't tolerate weakness* A fitting contradiction for a Con that chose a Police Car as his Vehicle Mode. Whereas Starscream literally only cares about himself and maintaining his position by any means neccesary, thinking that simply being feared and having power is enough to make him an effective leader. And Megatron is everything he was built up to be. Powerfull, ruthless and smart enough to instantly put together what Starscream's been trying to do in his absence. But he also doesn't care about you one way or the other, if you survive you're strong and deserve to rule. If you die, you're a weakling. This is definetly one of the most *heartless* versions of Megatron and its fascinating how this DS game did so much with relatively little.
The PSP game was one of my favorite PSP games as a kid. Although looking back at it if I tried to play it again I’d probably end up hating it lmao. Great video!
You can actually change the control scheme from the pause menu after the first mission, so you don't have to play with the tank controls. Replaying the first mission will still use the default tank controls regardless of your settings, though. You can also do different kinds of melee attacks by flicking the thumbstick in different directions while attacking, which I don't think the game ever actually tells you.
The Cybertron mission on the PSP was hard as hell, but it had a loophole. The game allows you to save gameplay anytime, anywhere, so I ended up just saving every time I damaged Shockwave.
It's crazy to think that shockwave has the most amount of designs in the bay verse. One of them is from the movies and two of them are from video games I think I like his PSP version the best. Side note real quick:Trailbreaker should get more love in more media like movies or TV shows. Same thing with blaster or springer.
The DS Versions are the best. The character development on both sides.... (more than Bay did in 5 films), the gameplay, optional vehicle forms, maps and characters to play as. The Story and Soundtrack are so memorable too.
I played this on the PS3 and had good memories with it and even now i still play this game. This was also my introduction to Transformers since i always liked the designs in the game and the first film.
Holy crap, nostalgia just hit me like a train. I remember going to my uncle's house and playing the transformers game in his PS2. It was the best game I've ever played at that time. And when I got a DS, I got the autobots version. I remembered how sad I was when I found out there were no jets in the autobots version, but I played the multiplayer of that game almost daily. I was number one in the world for the week a good handful of times.
SOMEONE MADE A VIDEO ON THIS GAME??!? Dude i was OBSESSED with this game when i was kid legit my all time favorite from back then, i used to only be able to beat the game as the deceptions because i could never figure out how to get past the part where you get captured as bumble bee lol
You are correct, I was the child who wanted Transformers: The Game, but my stepdad, the kind soul he is, when he was up on a trip in Scotland, picked up a copy of Transformers (PS2) instead. I was a little upset because there was no Ironhide, and i did eventually get the other one a few months later, but funnily enough. The Atari game has probably become one of my favourite PS2 games of all time
Excellent video. I hope you do more Transformers game videos in the near future like ROTF console games (both the Wii/PS2 version and the main version on the higher power systems and PC), the High Moon Cybertron games (although I haven’t played WFC yet), and Transformers Devastation. I had played the Wii version of the 2007 game a few years after it came out, and a few years after that I played the Decepticon DS game. This video made me feel so lucky those were the games I played when I was younger. The DS one definitely left an impression on me with how it made me feel sorry for some of the Decepticons, and humanized them with moments like Brawl saying “You can party with us anytime.”. I recently bought the PC version and played it with the 2.0 mod. I haven’t completed it yet (I’m at 97% on my current save file) but it was so cool to play as other characters in the hub world. It’s amazing how ambitious that game was with the cut Hoover dam level and making Brawl and Bonecrusher playable. I kinda wish the game was longer. Like I don’t think it’d be hard to imagine how they could have reused levels exclusive to the opposite faction. For example, maybe Bumblebee’s level inside the dam could be reused for Barricade where he has to infiltrate and unfreeze Megatron. Or the Autobots could go to the same military base level as Starscream to look for clues or something before rescuing Bumblebee. And of course I wish they had used the dam exterior level for both factions. We were so robbed of the Optimus Prime vs Megatron boss fight on the dam homaging the first G1 episode. I found this video very relatable. Thanks so much.
Gosh, the DS version brings back so many memories, especially that Battle for the AllSpark screen. I remember interacting with a good chunk of the players listed there on the forums. It was this game (Autobot Main, but had a Decepticon copy) and the multiplayer community it supported that would serve as the foundation for my online identity (Went simply as Obiwan on the forums, then adopted the DS bit afterwards). Fantastic times. Great video!!
Just discovered your channel and I already feel I'll stick forever, I loved the way you edited and narrated, it's soo good that 30mins passed by like it was 5!
I remember playing the crap out of both DS games. I got the OG Starscream costume from a DS download station. On of my favorite lines is from the Autobots version: "This bites!" "Bites? are there Sharktacons in here?"
I played the PS2 version of this game so much as a kid, it was so awesome! And then the cheat codes, man it was so cool after I found out you could unlock G1 Prime and Megatron! I got the Decepticon DS version later on when I was in middle school and I greatly enjoyed that one too. It blew me away just how vast the maps were for a DS game!
I was honestly about to download the Transformers PSP version on my PS Vita, but after watching your video about it, you saved me from making a horrible mistake. XD I honestly played the living hell out of the PS2 of Transformers The Game. I had a lot of fun playing the game when I was younger and it was also my very first Transformers game I have ever played.
This was one of my favorite Wii games growing up. I still remember the glitch on the suburbs map after you completed the ironhide mission, if you die as bumblebee, you would respawn in the open world as ironhide.
When you win on the transformers psp multiplayer match due to being great on how to time the melee button to achieve the three melee combo while your friends doesn't know how😅.
The DS version was hands down the best. Maybe not graphic wise but gameplay wise. I mean you literally can scan any vehicle and transform into that. The map was really big and it has so many places out of the movies.
Oh man this was the first game I ever played on a 7th gen console I remember being 8 years old always playing my ps2 and GameCube then I get invited to my friends house across the street. He just got a Xbox 360 I remember that distinct sound it made when it turned on and the old style menu screen. Then he out in transformers and my god mind was blown harder then when I loaded up Spider-Man 2 on my Gamecube
The whole scanning cars and getting to change to them and finding really hidden vehicles was so GOATED! I was dying to play the opposite game just to see the differences of how the games turned out. Way better than the pokemon versions!
The year is 2008, your brother just got you an N5 for your Nintendo DS. you download all the Nintendo DS games you want on it for free. including transformers the game for autobots and decepticons. your in the level where you have to kill brawl, but every time you shoot at him he doesn't die. your brother helps you beat him by showing you that you have to throw the other tanks at brawl to kill him.
I find the fact that the psp version of the 07 game had like a bunch of completely unique designs with very detailed concept art released on them interesting they put a lot of effort into all of the unique stuff
i had decepticons on DS and man that game was sick! i got so immersed as a kid driving around! it was basically my GTA as a kid! hours spent just driving around finding all the cars i could scan! i loved being my own custom transformer and i think it would a super cool idea to revisit.
I had both DS versions in a pirate cartridge and I used to roam around the maps with different vehicles and characters making up stories in my mind swapping between both games on the fly. I spent thousands of hours doing this as a kid. Shame the cartridge eventually broke
I also grew up with the Wii version since my grandma didn't own any other console. But I mostly stuck with the PS2 version since that's what we had at home. I'm never gonna forget the all nighters I pulled playing the DS version as a kid.
the PSP version excels at multiplayer, there's straight up a community for online multiplayer that's still active to this day, a pro the PSP version has over the DS and console version is it's roster, theres a LOT of characters to play as in the multiplayer mode
I too have played the first and second games on my 360 when i was younger, im currently 27. I also played the first game on the PSP and all the DS games too. good times. I remember a mission i had issues completing on the PSP. It was the Optimus Prime vs Bone crusher. I also think i hated the helicopter missions in the snow on the DS games. Guess i just sucked at gaming back then.
Man, I grew up with the DS games and I love them to this day. I think I'll get my 3ds and play them soon. They are such great games and honestly some of the best DS games ever.
The DS version of the Deceptions is Goated. The fact that they made the story and characters much better than the movies themselves and were able to fit a sandbox areas on the DS is highly impressive 23:55 Also as someone who maxed out the completion rate in the Deceptions. Allspark wars was only able to be played once daily after you do the daily challenge (the same orange ones you see in free roam, however every week it's an assigned one and it rotates daily). I remember scoring high on the survival mode one due that my name was on the top on the leader board for that day 😅 Either way, grinding all that to get the tokens to unlock the rest of the cheats and the highly broken G1 Starscream was worth dealing with awkward positioning to connect to a Wi-Fi Hotspot back in the day.
I grew up with the Ds version of Transformers and man. I loved every bit of it. The amount of times I replayed Decepticon's story is amazing. Might be the most Fleshed out Ds game I have ever played.
I loved the first movie Transformers game on PS2 as it literally reminded me of Grand Theft Auto but with Transformers characters in it with free roam being avaliable. I wished the ROTF game for PS2 and the Wii was the same as the Xbox 360/PS3 versions had as I was deeply disappointed with how completely different the PS2 and Wii games were.
I remember I always wanted to unlock the jet in the autobots version for the DS but to this day I never did lol wish I could’ve played the deception version back then too
I grew up with the PC PORT of Transformers the game and oh boy i spend hundreds of hours in that game and i completed the decepticons campaign first because my pc for some weird reason doesn't support the 3rd chapter of the Autobots it just crashed the game so obviously I'll go with deceptions and you know worse thing my game has no cutscenes because it was the pirated version which because of my low end computer but it ran good on my best friend's computet so the Autobot campaign was completed on his computer damn that really feels like two sides LoL. Overall man it's good to revisit my childhood game that introduced to me to the transformers franchise Thankyou for this video because i really enjoyed here i subbed hope it makes you happy take care.
the ds lite for the longest time was my only console, got an r4 card with it loaded to the brim with games. a few of them were the first games, and then rotf, played the hell out of both. it blew my mind to play an open world game on the ds, along being able to scan vehicles and switch forms.
I had the Autobot DS game when I was way younger, and I loved it. Unfortunately kid me got completely road blocked by one specific level (where you play as bumblebee and have to destroy turrets around the map) and I couldn’t move past that level at all. I lost the game cartridge a long time ago, so I’ve never been able to redeem myself lol
I played the absolute hell out of the autobot DS game. It was my first 3D game and my first open world game. I’m still chasing the high of running around tranquility.
The only one of these I haven't played was PSP, I would agree about the Wii version, the thing about all the shake the controller to do X games is eventually your wrist starts hurting and the camera was... well lets just say as much as I could, I stuck in vehicle mode with it's fixed camera back in the day.
I kinda miss the days of different game versions. Sometimes it ended up in us getting *THE* game and then other junk but sometimes we got some pretty good games out of it. I quite liked games like the ps2 version of Revenge Of The Fallen or the Force Unleashed.
The only memory’s I have with this game are me destroying the whole city as Autobot and failing the first mission in the Decepticon campaign over and over again lmao. But it was fun and the graphics are really good for 17 years. Maybe I should try it again
There’s a guy on TH-cam who worked on a bunch of our childhood games and he has so many prototypes he did a 2 hour video going over the prototype of this game and what he worked on it’s a good watchb
Heya Everyone, hope you all enjoyed this video! This was alot of fun to work on, even if it took a long time to come out! XD
we can barely hear you at 100% brother
cool channel : )
With the fact that the console version was developed by Traveler’s Tales, this is the closest to a LEGO Transformers game.
The closest so far
😎👉DS versions criminally underrated
Especially the Decepticons one
@@TFOutdoors Except the Brawl vs Ironhide fight. The mf had so much health I only beat the mission when he fell into a gap next to a building and couldn't move or hit me.

Slight correction: In the Autobots, you kill him, but then he talks to Megatron after he breaks out of the ice.
5:56 I love the intimidating music playing as Optimus chases Megatron with a tree
Thats the star saber
The DS games set my expectations super high for other games as a kid
They got Keith David Aka(Spawn) and Steve Blum Aka(Wolverine) for the DS versions that's top notch talent
Keith David also voices barricade in every version, pretty cool

Oh hey, Pigpen I'm subscribed to you too!
It's not awful, but definitely not great, from the framerate to the original story. At least the music is great.
I’ve been playing it recently again after restoring my psp, and I have to say that it still holds up well, minus the tank controls
You can actually change the control scheme from the pause menu after the first mission, so you don't have to play with the tank controls.
Replaying the first mission will still use the default tank controls regardless of your settings, though.
You can also do different kinds of melee attacks by flicking the thumbstick in different directions while attacking, which I don't think the game ever actually tells you.
The Ironhide boss fight is the most difficult mission in this entire game
Actually it's jazz vs Starscream and blackout

the blackout mission is right there
The Cybertron mission on the PSP was hard as hell, but it had a loophole. The game allows you to save gameplay anytime, anywhere, so I ended up just saving every time I damaged Shockwave.
I never really figured out what to do in that mission since it was the only non linear one lmao, I just ended up going around in circles
transformers was basically another version of GTA, including the DS

Yes! Especially the PSP version of Shockwave; he hams it up like an old school James Bond villain

6:04 are we not gonna talk about how Optimus just yeeted that cop?
They really went crazy with the marketing for the first transformers in 2007
I played this on the PS3 and had good memories with it and even now i still play this game.
This was also my introduction to Transformers since i always liked the designs in the game and the first film.
“I am Optimus prime. And I send this message to all over autobots scattered across the stars…. We are here. We are waiting”
what I've....DOONNNNEEEE
19:58 is that Steve Blum and Keith David?
Legit lol. Its Wolverine and The Arbiter

A sentient being of culture , as well.
Also 5:56 Megatron running away from Optimus holding a tree is peak cinema.
I recall of playing the first game and let's just say a lot of fun times playing the game with my friends.
Woah, this game looks so better on xbox than on wii. I never knew. Love this game, still play it to this day.

Allspark wars was only able to be played once daily after you do the daily challenge (the same orange ones you see in free roam, however every week it's an assigned one and it rotates daily). I remember scoring high on the survival mode one due that my name was on the top on the leader board for that day 😅
Either way, grinding all that to get the tokens to unlock the rest of the cheats and the highly broken G1 Starscream was worth dealing with awkward positioning to connect to a Wi-Fi Hotspot back in the day.
at least shockwave finally got to be in the third movie
I grew up with the Ds version of Transformers and man. I loved every bit of it. The amount of times I replayed Decepticon's story is amazing. Might be the most Fleshed out Ds game I have ever played.
The DS versions will always be THE underrated gems in my eyes.
5:57 "Why are you running...Why are you running?!"
I loved the first movie Transformers game on PS2 as it literally reminded me of Grand Theft Auto but with Transformers characters in it with free roam being avaliable. I wished the ROTF game for PS2 and the Wii was the same as the Xbox 360/PS3 versions had as I was deeply disappointed with how completely different the PS2 and Wii games were.
The OG Transformers game takes me back lol, I literally just messed around with the PC demo for months before getting the full thing
I used to love this game as a kid! I never got far because I just wanted to play as the 76 and concept camaros lol
Fun fact: The voice actor for the protagonist in both the DS versions also voices Dempsey from COD zombies
And wolverine
I remember I always wanted to unlock the jet in the autobots version for the DS but to this day I never did lol wish I could’ve played the deception version back then too
The Decepticon DS game might’ve been the best game on that entire console. I remember sinking hours of my life into it.
I actually just got the ps2 version of this game recently. It's an impressive title for the hardware it's on.
Brother I used to have the orignal transformers game for the ds along with iron man and that shit was the coolest of all time as a child
I grew up with the PC PORT of Transformers the game and oh boy i spend hundreds of hours in that game and i completed the decepticons campaign first because my pc for some weird reason doesn't support the 3rd chapter of the Autobots it just crashed the game so obviously I'll go with deceptions and you know worse thing my game has no cutscenes because it was the pirated version which because of my low end computer but it ran good on my best friend's computet so the Autobot campaign was completed on his computer damn that really feels like two sides LoL.
Overall man it's good to revisit my childhood game that introduced to me to the transformers franchise
Thankyou for this video because i really enjoyed here i subbed hope it makes you happy take care.
The PSP one was my first PSP game, sadly the PSP broke in 2022 so until I get another one those memories are only memories
the ds lite for the longest time was my only console, got an r4 card with it loaded to the brim with games.
a few of them were the first games, and then rotf, played the hell out of both.
it blew my mind to play an open world game on the ds, along being able to scan vehicles and switch forms.
I grew up with the ds games before console version but ds games I was highly addictive as a kid growing up.
Human of culture for correlating the portable versions to the Oracle games
I had the Autobot DS game when I was way younger, and I loved it. Unfortunately kid me got completely road blocked by one specific level (where you play as bumblebee and have to destroy turrets around the map) and I couldn’t move past that level at all.
I lost the game cartridge a long time ago, so I’ve never been able to redeem myself lol
What I love about this game: The free roam
What I hate about it: The actual missions
I played the absolute hell out of the autobot DS game. It was my first 3D game and my first open world game. I’m still chasing the high of running around tranquility.
I did not expect Keith David to be the voice of barricade, that was a surprise
4:10 But this is the best part.
Ngl, the DS games went HARD
The only one of these I haven't played was PSP, I would agree about the Wii version, the thing about all the shake the controller to do X games is eventually your wrist starts hurting and the camera was... well lets just say as much as I could, I stuck in vehicle mode with it's fixed camera back in the day.
I kinda miss the days of different game versions. Sometimes it ended up in us getting *THE* game and then other junk but sometimes we got some pretty good games out of it. I quite liked games like the ps2 version of Revenge Of The Fallen or the Force Unleashed.
I love that you're making these types of videos! You should make one on xmen origins wolverine or iron man 2008
The only memory’s I have with this game are me destroying the whole city as Autobot and failing the first mission in the Decepticon campaign over and over again lmao. But it was fun and the graphics are really good for 17 years. Maybe I should try it again
Man I played the Autobots version of the DS game so much when I was a kid, if I would've known about the sequel I would've been all over that lol
There’s a guy on TH-cam who worked on a bunch of our childhood games and he has so many prototypes he did a 2 hour video going over the prototype of this game and what he worked on it’s a good watchb
