vs The long awaited
Transformers: The Movie will come to the big screen in two weeks time -
4th July 2007, and the premiums are arlready out for grab, i.e. action figures, games, etc...
For the DS, there are 2 versions, or rather 2 factions (of the games) to choose from:
1) The
Autobots; or
2) The
Decepticons;
My ThoughtsThe overall feel or mood of the games are like playing
GTA, in terms of control and navigation, of course the difference is - you are a TRANSFORMER!
I find the
Autobots version is more challenging to play, comparing to the
Decepticons. 'Cos being an
Autobot, you have lots of considerations bounded, like during combat, you have to watch out for public properties and so. In another word,
TO PROTECTHowever, if you are on the opposite faction, i.e. The
Decepticons, you can do almost anything you like, i.e. destroying private or public properties. In another word,
TO DESTROY.Either side you are on, by destroying civilians' properties, means violating laws, and you'll draw attentions from the local authorities -
HUMAN POLICE!.
As for the
Graphics, it is truely a great disappointment. Well, some many argue DS has a limited graphic engine, however, I believed it can be better, at least doesn't look like an old 3D FPS flat BMP BG.
FACTSBy playing either versions of the games, will gives you certain spoilers to the movie. Please take note!
