“Sadly, apparently Activision’s not sure what hard drives they’re on in their building,” Hasbro told TFW2005. “When a company eats a company that eats a company things get lost, and that’s very frustrating.”

I had blocked that game from my memory.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers:_The_Game

It. Was. So. Bad.

Easily makes the list of the top five worst games I've ever played.

I have to admit I enjoyed throwing movie Ironhide's weight around.

But the goofy checkpoint system was just awful. The whole game was like one exceedingly long escort the NPC quest.

Edit: And for contrast: the other Transformers PS2 game is fantastic: Transformers: Armada So it's not as if they couldn't have done better.
