It's funny how this game implies that Soundwave traveled to America to scan a Mercedes SLS AMG, went back to Africa, then when Megatron told him to fuck off he traveled all the way back to America again. No wonder he was so desperate to kill the autobots to the point where he would take orders from a human in DotM
I feel like it would’ve made more sense if he sent laserbeak or even had already scanned the Mercedes when he was still a satellite, like in the first episode of g1 transformers they didn’t need to be right next to the car to scan it
Fucking sucks that Activision is greedy and not only did they make these games non backwards compatible but now they shut down multiplayer servers and you can only play them in illegal ways now like MW2 or BO2
can confirm, DOTM's tie in was an absolute banger, was the first transformers game I ever played and I had genuine fun playing it, never finished the story sadly and probably never will, lost my copy of the game (I have no idea where it is) and don't have a ps3 anymore, I still occasionally quote the "OVERLOOOOOOOOAD" death sound from the random decepticons while playing games
@@Papa_Straight would if I could tbh, shits are expensive as shit on amazon and the like and I can't get them on the digital store, only one I really own is ROTDS, and well I think you should know why I dint count that :\
Fun Fact: The DS game for Dark Of The Moon is also canon as they talk about missions that correlate to this game. Or they actually talk about characters that made it to the console version such as Mixmaster. For example: The Final boss of the DS game in Autobots is Megatron, whom you fight as Ironhide. Basically in the game Optimus tells The Autobots that he’s fighting Shockwave. So it seems that Ironhide followed Megatron and went to fight em off. While in the console version, Optimus is currently trying to stop Shockwave. You can also say that Megatron ends up defeating Ironhide and successfully leaves in The Decepticons version
I remember first playing it after I had played the first Mercenaries game by Lucasarts. So the concept of city destruction stuck with me and clicked from then on. RotF not having much in terms of environment destruction disappointed me back in the day.
This game was definitely better than the movie in how it handled it's characters. Ironhide got a lot more screentime and Mirage was able to flex his personality with better dialogue than his film version. Also Shockwave actually got to fight Optimus Prime in a proper one on one fight rather than just dying in two seconds.
After rewatching the movies it pisses me off how alot of the autobots and deceptions don’t get alot of screen time especially ironhide in the 3rd movie he did nothing despite being the big boom character like wtf
To be fair, Shockwave being an assassin rather than a scientist isn't unique to this series. It's basically just a call back to Shockblast from Energon, where he's one of the most ruthless Decepticons around.
It definitely had it's up and downs but I still had plenty of fun which is more than I can say about rise of the dark spark. I'm glad someone else is bringing up these classic games. They should've really remastered the cybertron games, they were the best transformers games in my opinion.
These videos are great and I hope your channel continues to grow, and that you continue to make enjoyable content for Transformers fans and other audiences.
I remember playing this game a lot when it came out and i was 6 or 7. even its not that great compared to War for Cybertron or Fall of Cybertron, it will still hold a special place in my heart along with War and Fall.
Great video, I really like your opinionated/Video essay videos as they're just nice to watch and your takes on the Bayverse movies are really unique as they're not just oh the movies are bad and bring up the same criticisms that are obvious, but have been said to the moon for me as a Transformers fan and it's nice to hear a different perspective on the movies and what are actually good with them while still bringing up the bad stuff here and there, but not going off track of the video topic, great stuff. To relate to the video, I don't know of it's just nostalgic bias or if it's an unpopular opinion or not, but I really like the Tie in game for Revenge of the fallen that was released on the Playstation 2 more than the objectively more loved Playstation 3 version as I liked the Beatem up fashion of the game and how you can just relax with it as not get swarmed with information and tedious missions, okay the game has some of those like the Starscream level and Sideways level, but what the game has in repetitiveness it has interesting level design and varied characters you can play as like Jetfire, Sideways and Jetpower Optimus and even the given characters you'd expect to play as have their own unique power up sequence as you gain energon to do this cool moves that have weight behind them when used, I might be singing too much praise to the game as although growing up with cousins who had the 2007 Game on PS2 ot really wasn't for me as I was too young around about 4/5 years old, but in whole honesty I love the Rotf tie in game for the PS2. Can't wait for what you make next as previously said your videos are really interesting and entertaining, to end off I don't know in the grander scheme of the Bayverse movies I like Age of extinction the most as my guilty pleasure movie as I like the emotional scenes, the Dinobots, Lockdown, Kade and Optimus talking to each other and their perspectives on the situation they are in and the general story and premise justs works for me, but it could be better like alot better as it's a more expection versus reality aspect of the movie that gets to like the on the run and The Autobots not trusting humans could be explored even more than it is as the KSI storming scene really shows that the writers could have done for the whole movie, instead of stupid jokes. Thanks for the great video as it really let me express my thoughts on something I'm passionate about and I am sorry for the essay you had to read, I tend to do this alot. Thanks again
the 07 movie's tie in game was amazing, I grew up with it on wii u. i had the online demo of revenge of the fallen on 360. one match/ gamemode but it was free and all your friends could play, so we played it a lot. both I thought were great, and they're aged... but still not bad for a movie tie in game. the War for Cybertron games are just amazing.
Story wise DOTM was the best I've played (Not including WFC and FOC) Gameplay wise ROTF was the best one out there, the Gameplay was so well done, the Vehicle switching was so smooth, and it actually felt competitive in multiplayer. Meanwhile TF1 is pure nostalgia
i wasn't allowed to watch anything Transformers related until i was 13 so my only real exposure was through the games. fall of cybertron and dark of the moon were what i poured hours into
This game was very fun….but the problem with this game is that it was rushed and unfinished which I guess are the main problems with movie tie in video games. This is why wfc, foc, and transformers universe are the best transformers games of all time in my opinion because those games had a passion behind it and not some quick lazy attempt, unfinished, rushed, quick money cash grab of a game.
This is a decent review, though it needs more time in the editing room. Your voice keeps cutting out and is edited in certain spots weirdly. I hope your future videos don't have this issue.
Im sorry I disagree strongly. Transformers 2 was not mid. That game was unparalleled levels of fun with a bunch of nodes and a wide variety of abilities. I much prefer it's style than to the one war for cybertron and the others populated though I love those games as well
Great video, i've been waiting for someone to summarise this game, plus I enjoyed your commentary. I think some of your audio cuts could be worked on. There are moments where you voice either just awkwardly cuts or you stumble some words. All will improve as you continue making videos.
Gonna have to hard disagree on the RoTF console game being mid; it's far better that DoTM when it comes to graphics, gameplay and missions, as well as the campaigns being pretty good. Obviously the Nintendo DS versions of Transformers will always be godly in comparison to the other games, especially RoTF and DoTM for the DS. Also piss off with the random earrape, I had my volume as low as possible and the Connor clip still left my ears ringing >:/
Loving the content but it’s a shame your mic keeps cutting out. Wishing you the best and hope your channel does well enough for you to get some Better kit.
I love this game because its not a remake of a story we already know about instead its a brand new story that takes place before the one we know about and answers a bunch of things that were not surprisingly left out of the movie like how Megatron got his truck mode the decepticons launching a rocket to the moon to recover the pillers what happened to all the autobots that were cut from the movie where shockwave came from and where he's been on earth soundwave finally landing on earth Ironhide actually useing his new weapons how the decepticons set up camp in Africa and its just an overall good game
I've got this game for Christmas 2022 and I had fun with it but it it's a shame that there was 7 chapters (I think in the game) I tried to beat it in vehicle mode and this game was a blast
The deception witht he 2 spikes is berkerker or something like that Megatron asks for him to be released in the movie and humans just say "nah" and we never see him again 💀
ROTDS can't be tied into the WFC universe because the end credit scene for FOC had G1 Optimus who was clearly on Earth when the Bayverse showed Optimus coming to Earth in the first film. So it can't be canon to the WFC universe.
The 28 stab wounds was also way too loud even for being the point of the bit. Audio flubs have been common in these videos and need to be cut out because besides the minor editing issues, the content is really interesting to listen to. I'll keep following the channel but won't sub until the audio and recording issues are fixed to give a more refined professional feel.
It would be amazing if there was Sideswipe and Que/Wheeljack playable and control the decepticons Just like the second ps2 game + there was Barricade and Soundwave it would be amazing too bad that didn't have 😢😔 like and bye!
Biggest nitpick i had towards dark of the moons game was the MAPS are ridiculously small for transformers. If you look at revenge of the fallen, the maps were literally made to be climbed and travaled in vechile modes.
I remember playing only the multiplayer for this game on the 360 as I only had the demo. Thinking back I really enjoyed it actually. May not remember actually what it was, but I remember the feeling of it and how I would grind on it. Those were good memories for me. Actually I lied. I think the demo let u do the first mission as well? Or thats another game. But I never had bad memories about this game personally
I loved the story of this one and war for cybertron and fall of cybertron never played the multiplayer top because I didnt have internet I wish they would make a new transformers game

The multiplayer was much better than the campaign, I had a lot of fun in it. Especially playing as Soundwave, he was a blast.
The multiplayer was awesome I still remember Megatron’s line of “Team Death Match. ELIMINATE THE ENEMY TEAM.” Great game 👍

@@Waspinator421 I’m not sure. I never played it. But is the plot the same? What are the differences?
This game and the cybertron games holds a special place to me because these games were my childhood, I remember loving them so much
I loved the transformer 1 tie in game as a kid.
Now that I think about it, it's a little repetitive.
But kid me didn't care.
I remember first playing it after I had played the first Mercenaries game by Lucasarts. So the concept of city destruction stuck with me and clicked from then on. RotF not having much in terms of environment destruction disappointed me back in the day.
The Optimus boss fight was super painful
What difficulty you play?
True, on NORMAL
Took me like 5 times on normal I got impatient and went on easy 😂
How? It’s so easy for me.
That boss fight was easy even on normal.

To be fair, Shockwave being an assassin rather than a scientist isn't unique to this series.
It's basically just a call back to Shockblast from Energon, where he's one of the most ruthless Decepticons around.
And Shockwave's DOTM design makes him look way more like a ruthless killer instead of a scientist
Shockblast isn’t a really a assassin He’s just an insane psycho killer.
The only problem in the game is that we never got to play as sentinel
Wasnt he in a stasis mode tho the entire time and isnt this before the movie?
maybe because this game is like a prequel
@@g4m3boy42 yea no shit my dude. I'm just saying I wish we could've used him
Couldve been great DLC
Transformers Dotm the game was a prequel to the movie
One of my favorite Transformers games. My only issue was the weird driving controls

Story wise DOTM was the best I've played (Not including WFC and FOC)
Gameplay wise ROTF was the best one out there, the Gameplay was so well done, the Vehicle switching was so smooth, and it actually felt competitive in multiplayer.

fall of cybertron and dark of the moon were what i poured hours into
That's pretty messed up your parents didn't let you watch a franchise that was literally aimed at kids half the time 😑💀
(in my opinion) this is one of the most underrated movie tie-in games
What this game needed was Sentinel!
0:30 you dare not speak slander on it's name, bro it's got some of the best multiplayer out of all of them, we gotta throw hands, I'm flying out!
I hated the Mirage mission of this game. I’d always die the most there. Also I had the most fun playing as Soundwave

bro the memories, the first video game I ever played. That shockave and optimus bossfight was a pain in my ass hahaha.
