Product Specs

Description

If you loved the Transformers: Prime cartoon, the Transformers movies, or even if you’ve never seen Transformers but you enjoy an action-packed video game, Transformers: The Game for Nintendo Wii systems offers hours of robot-shooting action. Based on the 2007 film by the same name, this Wii game invites players to jump into a world of mechanized shape-shifters called Autobots and Decepticons as they battle for Earth. It was first released in 2007, not to be confused with Transformers: Prime - The Game, released in 2012. The publisher of these games, Activision, set this Wii game up so you can choose between being one of the good guys fighting for what’s right for earth, or one of the villians when you play. Gamers get to choose between protecting the Earth as Autobots or destroying it as part of the Decepticon army in the games. The available characters to play as include Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Jazz, Ironhide, and Ratchet for the Autobots. On the Decepticon side, play the Wii version as Megatron, Starscream, Blackout, Scorponok, Barricade, Bonecrusher, Brawl, or Shockwave. Just like in the Transformers movie and television shows, buildings, vehicles, and any other objects in the path become weapons as this Nintendo Wii video game progresses. You'll also enjoy the voice talents of several Transformer veterans. Peter Cullen is the voice of Optimus Prime, as he was in the original 1984 Transformers TV series and the 1986 and2007 films. Decepticon leader Megatron is voiced by Frank Welker, who also played the role in the 1984 TV series and 1986 movie. Additional well-known actors include Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox as Sam Wiwicky and Mikaela, and Mark Ryan as Ironhide (he voiced Bumblebee in the 2007 movie), among many others. As one of the Autobot characters or a Decepticon like Megatron, you can seamlessly change from a sports car, helicopter, or fighter jet mode right into a giant robot to take full advantage of the characters' abilities and strengths while exploiting the weakness of your enemies. Head-to-head battles allow game players to engage in combat based on the weight of the robot, its power, scale, and special moves unique to the characters. In addition to playing the game as your choice of great characters, like Optimus Prime who is always good and right, or Megatron who is portrayed as a fierce gladiator, a massive array of projective weapons is available for taking out the enemy from afar. The Transformers game is rated T – for teens and older due to the amount of violence in this third person, action, shooter game. This is one of Wii’s one-player video games, though more players could take turns, challenging one another to see who gets farther in the game. Slip one of these Transformer games into your Wii game system and start crunching and smashing your way through the city and countryside as you recreate scenes from the movie. Feel the gamepad or joystick you’re using vibrate as you strike a blow for what’s right as an Autobot warrior and your projectile makes impact with the enemy. Or, join the Decepticons in the quest to conquer earth and point your Wii controller where you want your Decepticon avatar to go.
