Hopefully this won't be seen as a stupid question, but......... I preordered the game, and my question is do I wait to play the game after I have seen the movie, or can I play it before the movie. I heard that the game conincides with the movie in some fashion (Like in the matrix game and movie). It will be really hard not to play it....hmmmm decisions, decisions!!

If you're worried about ruining the plot, I don't think that's a concern....

Ya I agree. I was just wondering if the game was like prequal or a sequel, or an inbetweenquel

IGN gave it a 5.7:

It's a typical licensed game - in a word, crappy. It has some high points, but it's not worth $60, even for TF fans.

Pretty much what I figured. I always see these games as part of the marketing machine for the movies and to try and make some quick cash off the hype.

I was implying that if you are going to see Transformers for the plot, then you're going to be disappointed.

Rest assured that no Oscars are going to Shia LaBeouf or Tyrese :rolleyes:

I'll ruin the plot right here with a few spoilers and let you rest easy:
They are robots in disguise, so they may as vehicles and such then suddenly transform into killer robots.
Robots will fight.

ya, your right about the oscar. but maybe optimus prime could be up for an oscar. He always gave good speeches in the past too! Anyways, I sense some negativity. Thats ok you are probably right. But personally I feel very comfortable wrapped in my false sense of reality blanket. This usually alows me to enjoy things even if they are bad :)

No way guys - Bernie Mac's performance is totally Oscar worthy. Good thing the committee just added the "Best Used Car Salesman in a Robot Movie Directed by Michael Bay" category. ;)
