Another film adaptation that falls short...
A diverse array of characters, weapons and abilities.
The unnecessary addition of ‘Stealth Force Mode’, poor vehicle physics, a limited environment. Doesn't synch up with The Wizard of Oz.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon doesn’t suck – which in and of itself is pretty good for a summer blockbuster’s obligatory game tie-in. But really, it’s not all that surprising - it’s developed by High Moon, the same studio that created last year’s exce...

Super linear gameplay, Halfhearted story reveals nothing, Optimus Prime is hideous...

Watch Video ReviewThe life of a developer in charge of a movie tie-in is fraught with peril, and up on the chopping block today is High Moon Studios. It's had less than a year to make an entire game based on that Transformers: Dark of the Moon movie th...

High Moon Studios delivered a surprise with last year's Transformers: War for Cybertron, a third-person action game with a decidedly unique look and feel, the most fun Transformer action in years, and plenty of features for playing together. With th...

The last Transformers game, War for Cybertron, was a fun excapade into the world of Transformers that didn’t take itself too seriously, but was a classic, kid-friendly action-adventure with some surprisingly great multiplayer. The game followed no movi...

Before the review begins, I feel it's my duty to warn anybody who considers purchasing this -- there's barely any mention of the Moon at all. In fact, the Moon appears in the campaign's end credits more than it appears in the game itself. Transformer...

I'll admit that growing up, I was never the biggest Transformers fan. I never saw the animated movie as a kid, and while everyone had their Transformers toys, my big obsession was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Hey, at least it was something else big...

The root of most movie tie-in games' problems: time. Too-short development cycles, last-minute plot changes (realistic for shooting schedules, but murder for level design and game pacing)... the list goes on. And time feels like it's at the root of all...
Transformers: Dark of the Moon feels like another casualty in the movie-game war of short deadlines. The ideas for something great are certainly here, because the fundamentals were pulled from a great game. But Transformers: Dark of the Moon stretches...

Transformers: Dark of the Moon for the Xbox 360 and PS3 is pretty much just another quickly churned out movie tie-in game with a short campaign and questionable controls. However, it could be a lot worse. I actually had some genuine fun with it at poin...
