Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is the video game adaptation of the film of the same name for the Wii and PS2. It was developed by Krome Studios and shares a few developers with the earlier Armada-based game, due to Krome's acquisition of Melbourne House (the developers of said game) in 2006.[1] The two games are considerably different from the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, even using different gameplay. It was panned by critics because of limited transformation, linear levels and repetitive gameplay.

Story

With Megatron destroyed, Optimus Prime and the Autobots have begun fighting off the remaining Decepticons. However, Starscream and his master are not going down without a fight...

In space, an innocent satellite is just floating around when mysterious, alien satellite docks with it. Quickly, Soundwave locates a NEST convoy and orders Sideways and Demolishor to intercept. Sideways steals the convoy's cargo, while Demolishor causes destruction.

Chapter 1: Optimus Invades

Meanwhile, the Decepticons have taken control of a NEST gun and are firing at planes. Two Autobot fighter jets go down, but before the large transport plane explodes, Optimus Prime leaps out. As he falls toward Shanghai, Decepticon ranged warriors intercept. While Optimus is firing at them with his light weapons, the NEST gun continues firing at him. And on top of all that, ground based Decepticons are firing huge missiles. When Prime defeats the warriors, a ranged lieutenant takes him on. When he defeats the lieutenant, three more warriors come at him. He cuts one in half, and quickly dispatches of the other two. He then lands and orders the Autobots to report. Bumblebee is chasing Sideways, and Ironhide is on Demolishor's tail.

Chapter 2: Ironhide vs. Demolishor

Ironhide blows up and smashes his way through numerous Decepticon drones, eventually jumping between walls onto a rooftop and winning a shootout with Decepticon long range warriors. Ironhide jumps off the building onto the street, toppling a tower crane with his light weapon as Demolishor is under it. This knocks Demolishor into a pit, where he appears to be digging for something. Ironhide takes out Demolishor's top wheel and finally kills the larger Decepticon with three punches to the head.

Chapter 3: Pursuit Over Shanghai

Bumblebee transforms and calls for assistance, warning that he's found Sideways. As he runs through the city streets, several Decepticon soldiers swoop down and open fire. Returning fire, Bumblebee ducks behind a bus, which explodes. As he continues, Bumblebee finds that Sideways is on top of the taller buildings of the city. Leaping from wall to wall, Bumblebee reaches the top of a tower and dispatches two more Air Warriors. As he continues atop the buildings, Bumblebee blasts any Decepticon in his way and finally reaches Sideways...

Chapter 4: Sideways Goes to Ground

...who calls Soundwave, asking for a little help. Bumblebee replies that Sideways will need a lot of help, as he is close enough to hear the Decepticon's whining transmission. Sideways transforms into his alternate form and races through Shanghai's busy streets. As he is about to escape from Bumblebee, Sideways is intercepted by a fire truck, which transforms into an Autobot warrior. Transforming into robot form, Sideways returns fire and ends the miserable Autobot's life. As more Autobots intercept Sideways, waves of Decepticons assault the Autobots. Soundwave has sent backup. Inches from Sideways, Bumblebee transforms...and Sideways is carried away by Starscream. Growling, Bumblebee turns to Optimus and apologizes, saying that they got away...

Chapter 5: Starscream Strikes

Starscream launches attacks on aircraft carriers, deployed to destroy generators powering the shields that defend the main platform tower of NEST that conserves the crushed Decepticon leader Megatron. Air Warriors attack Starscream, forcing them to flee or he will destroy them. Then Starscream blows up the generators allowing Sideways to enter.


Chapter 6: From the Depths

Sideways enters the platform, deployed to enter and destroy power generators. Three Blazemasters dispatched to be defeated. However, Megatron is reactivated.


Chapter 7: The Devastator

Megatron sents Devastator to Shanghai causing destruction. NEST Team orders Optimus, Bumblebee and Ironhide to stop Devastator before he can cause much destruction. Optimus swings through, defeating every drone that comes his way. Bumblebee contacts Optimus to backup, but then Starscream (damn it!) takes the little Autobot forcing Optimus to attack Devastator. Then Devastator launches Optimus to the bridge, destroyed by Demolishor with Ironhide telling Prime to use the pillars to destroy Devastator's missile launchers. Then Optimus finally attacks Devastator with two energy canisters sent by NEST. Optimus makes Devastator to swallow the energy dock's power and finally destroys him (Ouch!) Then Optimus finds a piece of Cybertronian Technology that Devastator unearth! Optimus and the other Autobots have the mission to find Bumblebee.

Quotes

Jetfire: Calm yourself, child. I am no enemy.
Bumblebee: You're no Autobot.
Jetfire: The universe is larger than your understanding of it. My motivations are larger than those of your petty war.
Bumblebee: Mind your words, old man. I've lost friends in this petty war.

—Bumblebee converses with Jetfire aggresively.


Optimus Prime: Megatron, you fight for nothing. That is why you will never win.

—Optimus Prime taunts Megatron during their fight.


Notes

  • You are unable to transform in robot missions, but able to transform in driving missions, and can jump from wall to wall. Sounds kind of familiar.
  • The ranged Warriors look a lot like Breakaway, but they are blue.
  • While in the first game, cars (and humans) seemed nearly invincible until you shot them, in this game, if you so much as step on a car, it explodes.
  • Jetfire can beat the snot out of Decepticons by stepping on them!

Differences with the Movie

Krome was clearly writing the game on a different planet than the Movie's script.

  • Sideways doesn't die in Shanghai.
  • Ironhide, rather than Optimus, kills Demolishor.
  • Instead of the forest, Megatron wounds Optimus in the Decepticon base.
  • Optimus does not die, but is damaged.
  • The Fallen appears to be in total command of the Decepticons even before Megatron revives, as he is the one calling the shots.
  • Sam and Mikaela aren't in the game, except for a brief phone conversation with Optimus, and even then, it is only their voices.
  • Optimus kills The Fallen by putting him in front of the Star Harvester's beam.
  • The battle with Devastator happens in the first battle. While Optimus, Ironhide, and Bumblebee are cleaning up in Shanghai, Devastator appears out of nowhere and attacks.
  • Also, Optimus Prime, rather than a railgun, kills Devastator.
  • Instead of looking for the Matrix, The Fallen looks for pieces of the Harvester, saying he already has the Matrix. We...probably don't want to know what that means.
  • Instead of being trapped in the Smithsonian, Jetfire is in the Decepticon base.
