Trivia:

The mall seen in the game is called "Metroplex". Metroplex was the name of the Autobot's city on Earth in the original animated series, which could transform into a giant robot.

Goofs:

Plot holes: When Frenzy is briefing Starscream, he speaks in garbled nonsense presumably representing Cybertronian. The implication that the rest of the Decepticons are speaking English at all times is never really dealt with.

Quotes:

Optimus Prime: This has to end here, Megatron!
Megatron: Heroic words, Optimus. So fitting they shall be your last...

Disappointing game

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Like a lot of game adaptations of movies, Transformers The Game is another failure...But not a complete failure.

Spoilers-

With all do respect, it does have good graphics but the game play isn't anything special. there isn't even a multi player, and you can't play as ALL the Transformers from the movie, that is-Ratchet, Frenzy, Bonecrusher, and Brawl(Devastator in the movie). But, at least the voice acting is alright. Keith David does a good job as Barricade. Peter Cullen is still Prime, Mark Ryan is good as Ironhide, but I was sadly disappointed with Frank Welker as Megatron. He sounded pretty awful. In the end I'd have to agree with the decision Baya nd company made with saying that Welker's voice didn't fit Megatron's look.

It's an average game at best, but could've been better. Oh well...
