To my memory, this is the very first video game I have ever played so it has a lot of value to me. With that aside, this is actually a very great game. While this game follows the movie’s plot, it has been altered to accommodate the inclusion of the protagonist who was not present in the actual movie. It is pretty compelling and the protagonist has an actual arc. He was a show off and wanted to prove his worth to the other Autobots. By the end of the game, he learns to not behave in such a way. This was due to him causing Bumblebee to be captured by Sector 7. The gameplay is identical to the Decepticons version. Same vehicles, same combat and almost the same locations except the Arctic which is exclusive to the Autobots version. The game has phenomenal voice acting unlike any other DS game. Despite the nostalgia I have for this game, I’ve come to realize that this game is slightly lesser to the Decepticons since this game follows the movie more closely rather than the Decepticons which has its own unique story. Even with that in mind, it’s still a great game any Transformers fan should check out even 15 years later.
