played this for about an hour and a half this morning. The game is awesome, I freaking love it, it's fun, it's fast and it's a great throw back to G1. Honestly I was expecting a battle based game where you would be dropped into an arena, fight, and then be dropped in the next arena. I wasn't expecting to walk through a torn up city battling decepticons as you move onto your objective and boss battles while getting some cut scenes that fleshed out a story.
This game is alot like Robotech Battlecry but it's alot more fun to play, the action is fluid, even the gun play feels great and it's quite the challenge on the hardest mode. It also has a little RPG element to it where you can loot weapons, pick up power ups and health packs to give you a boost when you're in a jam, like I was in the Devastator fight.
I haven't gotten that far into the game though, I only just got to the mission in level 1 where you play as side swipe, so far i've seen all 5 autobots but have only been able to play as Optimus, Bumble Bee, and now Side Swipe. I will say that if you are not a fan of Transformers that this game most likely won't appeal to you as the whole presentation, graphics, voice work, and story are meant to feel like a Transformers Saturday morning cartoon and this game hit the bulls eye.
