The Xbox 360/Sony Playstation 3/Windows PC versions of '''[[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|Revenge of the Fallen: The Game]]''', developed by [[Luxoflux]], follows a number of Autobots and Decepticons through a loose approximation of the movie's plot. The game has two campaigns, one for each faction. It is the first Transformers game on a console to feature online play.

==Synopsis==
===Autobot campaign===

The Autobot campaign begins with NEST Pilot Sgt. Epps reporting Decepticons in [[Shanghai]], [[China]]. Upon the arrival of the Autobots, Major William Lennox tells them there are Decepticons in the perimeter and must not escape. [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] is sent to fight them. Ironhide then battles and defeats [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]]. When [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] gets word that Ironhide is missing, Ratchet heads out to find him and get him to safety. After locating Ironhide, his power is recharged and another Decepticon battle ensues. After annihilating Decepticon troops, Optimus battles [[Demolishor (ROTF)|Demolishor]]. Upon his defeat and before Optimus deactivates him, Demolishor states "[[The Fallen]] shall rise again."

The Autobots then head to Burbank, California where a previously unknown fragment of the [[AllSpark]] has surfaced, now in possession of [[Mikaela Banes]]. [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] is sent to protect Mikaela when the Decepticons detect the fragment also. The Autobots learn that a second AllSpark fragment held by the Americans has been stolen. Soundwave learns of [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]'s location, and transmits it to the Decepticons. [[Breakaway (ROTF)|Breakaway]] is sent to defend a carrier fleet guarding Megatron's corpse in the [[Laurentian Abyss]] from the Decepticons. Despite his efforts, Megatron is reactivated.

On the East Coast, [[Sam Witwicky]] is kidnapped by the Decepticon troops and taken to an industrial park near his college. Ratchet manages to locate Sam in an abandoned foundry and sends Bumblebee the coordinates. Bumblebee rescues Sam and gets him to the extraction point, Grindor attacks, but Bumblebee manages to defeat him. To aid their allies against the Decepticons, Optimus decides to give them advanced weaponry and escorts the [[Axiom Gun]] to NEST headquarters. After getting the convoy to destination, the Autobots meet with Sam who is going to visit the deli where [[Seymour Simmons|Agent Simmons]] is currently working. With intel from Simmons, Sam has Bumblebee take him to the museum to seek out a robot named [[Jetfire (ROTF)|Jetfire]]. While Sam looks for Jetfire, Bumblebee defends the museum from the Decepticon troops. Jetfire emerges from the museum and takes Sam through the inter-dimensional [[space bridge]] to [[Cairo]], Egypt, with the Autobots following.

Jetfire reveals the [[Dynasty of Primes]] have constructed a machine called the [[Star harvester|Sun Harvester]] hidden in an [[Pyramid|Egyptian pyramid]]. He says the device destroys stars to harvest their energy. Upon arrival in the outskirts of Cairo, the Autobots search for Sam while evading Decepticon troops. After finding Sam, Optimus Prime takes him to the Tomb of the 12 Ancients. While Sam is in the tomb, Optimus defends it from Megatron and [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]. Optimus defeats Megatron and Starscream, but they escape after Megatron impales Jetfire. Before dying, Jetfire lends his wings and parts to Optimus Prime. In the city Bumblebee faces Devastator who is leading the Decepticon troops attacking Cairo.

The Fallen reveals himself and the Sun Harvester. Optimus battles The Fallen, destroying him by impaling his face with his sword. The Fallen falls into the Sun Harvester, destroying it. With the Ancient Transformers avenged, [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] tells Optimus that Megatron is on a ship in a distant galaxy. Optimus then salutes his troops for their good work in stopping the Decepticons.

===Decepticon Campaign===

The Decepticon campaign begins in Shanghai with Sideways tracking down Autobots in his area. He then learns that Grindor has gone missing and Sideways must find, repair, and transport Grindor to the extraction site. Once Grindor is safe, he attacks Autobots protecting NEST arrays and infiltrates them with a [[viroid]]s, viruses that give the Decepticons access to NEST communications. Elsewhere, Long Haul destroys NEST bases located around the city of Shanghai. Ironhide emerges to fight Long Haul but is defeated. Starscream proclaims the victory as a message to Optimus Prime.

The Decepticons then head to Burbank, California. Soundwave has learned that Sam Witwicky has given a shard of the Allspark to Mikaela. They hope to recover the shard and revive Megatron. Long Haul destroys buildings, capturing men who may know Mikaela's location. However, the probe Starscream uses kills the first three before they can be of any use. Although the last engineer dies, Starscream is able to discover Mikaela's location. Long Haul is once again sent to recover her. Unfortunately, Starscream receives word that the Decepticon troops transporting Mikaela has been intercepted by the Autobots. After this, Starscream decides to kidnap NSA chief Galloway. After destroying several buildings owned by the front corporation Massive Dynamics, Starscream captures Galloway and places him under Decepticon control. Breakaway attempts to stop the Decepticons, but he is killed by Grindor.

With Galloway under their control, the Decepticons learn both the location of the AllSpark shard and where Megatron's remains have been hidden. Soundwave dispatches [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] to retrieve the shard, while Starscream and Long Haul head to the Laurentian Abyss. Starscream destroys the turrets on aircraft carriers stationed at the Abyss, allowing the Decepticons to gain access to Megatron's remains. Long Haul uses the shard to raise Megatron back to life, who returns to the ''Nemesis'' and presents himself to the Fallen. Megatron believes he has failed, but the Fallen reveals that there is a machine that can create the energon needed to raise their army. The knowledge lies within Sam Witwicky. Megatron dispatches Grindor to retrieve the boy, and succeeds, but the Autobots rescue him when Starscream's extraction unit is defeated. However, their hunt for the boy has drawn out Optimus Prime. Megatron defeats Optimus and has Starscream destroy a museum that Sam entered, but he is not among the ruins. They learn he was transported to Cairo, Egypt via a Space Bridge created by Jetfire.

Megatron arrives on the outskirts of an Egyptian city and engages Autobots in combat. Jetfire and Bumblebee both challenge him, but are destroyed. Long Haul is then dispatched to destroy the Axiom Gun. With the last threats removed, Megatron goes to meet the Fallen at the harvester. However, Optimus survived his battle with Megatron and reveals that The Fallen has no way to make Megatron a Prime, as Primes are born, not made. Megatron then attacks and destroys his former master, but Optimus is able to destroy the harvester before it can destroy the sun.

With his initial plan ruined, Megatron returns to the ''Nemesis'' and activates the protoforms inside the ship, commanding his new army to arise.

==Quotes==
"Today, one shall stand, and one shall fall."
:—'''Optimus Prime''' homages like its [[The Transformers: The Movie|1986]].

"All units: let the slaughter begin!"
:—'''Megatron''' does as well.

"Time to bust some Deceptichops!"
:—'''Ironhide''' continues the homage rampage.

"I still function!"
:—'''Megatron'''. No, the homages don't ever stop.

"I see a Decepticon, I attack a Decepticon."
:—'''Bumblebee''' kills and kills and kills.

'''Optimus''': We are accomplishing our objectives with great speed and less damage to the surroundings. 
'''Ratchet''': Except for the incident where Ironhide destroyed that ice cream truck. 
'''Ironhide''': It was emitting a Decepticon audio signature! 
'''Ratchet''': It was ''playing a song''.
:—As [[Kaiba-5|before]], Ironhide is way too trigger happy.

'''Starscream''': We Decepticons are always swift in battle! 
'''Grindor''': Although you, Starscream, are equally swift in retreating. 
'''Starscream''': I have ''never'' retreated! EVER! 
'''Grindor''': Of course not. You simply advance ''backwards''. 
''[Starscream roars in anger]''
:—Grindor takes up [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]]'s job of dissing Starscream.

==Notes==
*Throughout the North American levels, there are billboards for films such as [[wikipedia : The Island (2005 film)|The Atoll]], [[wikipedia : Bad Boys (1995 film)|Tough Guyz]], [[wikipedia : Armageddon (1998 film)|Earth's End]], and [[wikipedia : The Rock (film)|The Stone]].

*It's very easy to mod gamefiles, and be able to play [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKCIqpOCEkY Jetfire in single player portion of the game.]

*For destroying 250 Decepticons in the Autobot campaign, you earn the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXRCf9LbLM0 Awesome] Achievement/Trophy.

*For destroying 350 Autobots in the Decepticon campaign, you earn the [[wikipedia : Bad Boys (1995 film)|Bad Boys]] Achievement/Trophy.

*Six episodes of the Generation 1 cartoon can be unlocked in the course of the game: "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]", "[[Fire on the Mountain]]", "[[War of the Dinobots]]", and "The Ultimate Doom", Parts [[The Ultimate Doom, Part 1|1]], [[The Ultimate Doom, Part 2|2]], and [[The Ultimate Doom, Part 3|3]].

*G1-style colour schemes for Ironhide and Starscream can be unlocked for both single and multiplayer modes. Additionally, a yellow colour scheme can be unlocked for Long Haul, making him more closely resemble a conventional (or [[Tonka]]) dump truck.

*As in the [[Transformers The Game|previous games]], [[Frank Welker]] returns as Megatron. He does not, however, voice any of the characters ([[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]], [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]], and [[Devastator (ROTF)|Devastator]]) he did in the movie.

*Several multiplayer levels feature advertisements for [[Coca-Cola]].

*Fans of G1 will be pleased to find out that some Achievements/Trophies are named after episodes of the G1 cartoon, such as [[Carnage in C-Minor]] and [[Megatron's Master Plan]]. There's even an Achievement/Trophy titled You've Got [[The Touch]].

*Starscream is the only boss that is fought twice during the game.

*Ratchet doesn't exist in the Decepticon campaign. [[Transformers The Game|Again]].

*This game was [[Luxoflux]]'s last game.

==Differences between the Game and Movie==
* The Decepticons are not looking for the [[Matrix of Leadership]] as they did in the movie, but the star harvester itself (in the movie they already knew where the harvester was).
* In the Decepticon campaign, it's said that the Decepticons were in Shanghai to look for Megatron's remains.
* Breakaway did not appear in the movie.
* In the movie, Bumblebee is still having troubles with his speech. In the game, he has completely regained his speech.
* In the game, Optimus Prime doesn't die in either campaign, so he wasn't resurrected in the game. The battle in the forest doesn't happen either, but there's a similar battle in Cairo against Megatron and Starscream, although Jetfire is also present.
* Jetfire's death is altered. In the movie, he commits suicide and gives his parts to Optimus. In the games, he is either stabbed by Megatron before giving his parts to Optimus (Autobot campaign) or killed by the player (Decepticon campaign). Also, in the movie there's a neat combination sequence for Jetfire's parts and Optimus. In the game...Prime just abruptly appears in Autobot HQ in the next cutscene wearing Jetfire armor. Talk about anti-climactic.
* In the movie, Sideways is killed by [[Sideswipe (ROTF)|Sideswipe]]. In the Autobot campaign, he is killed by Ironhide (or whoever the player is), since although Sideswipe was later added to the game as downloadable content, he was originally absent from this game.
* Along with Sideswipe, [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]], [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]], [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]], [[Wheelie (ROTF)|Wheelie]] and [[Jolt (ROTF)|Jolt]] are absent from the game's story, and [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]] is only mentioned briefly in the Decepticon campaign. The only [[Constructicon (ROTF)|Constructicon]] to make an appearance, except as a part of [[Devastator (ROTF)|Devastator]], is [[Long Haul (ROTF)|Long Haul]] (as well as [[Constructicon Scout]]s very rarely being present as enemies in the Autobot campaign). Of the major human characters, [[Leo Spitz]] is not seen or mentioned during the game, and [[Seymour Simmons|Agent Simmons]] is only mentioned in a mission where the player has to escort Sam to the deli where he works.
* Like [[Revenge of the Fallen (novel)|other]] [[Revenge of the Fallen (comic series)|adaptations]], the [[Tomb of the Primes]] is called the Tomb of the Twelve, while in the movie, there were only seven dead Primes.
* In the movie, Devastator is killed at the pyramids. In the game, he is killed in Cairo, meaning he never gets the chance to rip the pyramid apart, yet in the battle against The Fallen, the pyramid is open, revealing the star harvester.
* The Autobots did not supply the humans with a weapon to battle the Decepticons in the movie.
* [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] speaks in a voice rather reminiscent of his [[Starscream (G1)|G1 counterpart]] in the movie. In the game, his voice is far deeper and more aggressive in nature, although he has the same voice actor.
* Similarly, Megatron is deep-voiced in the film. In the game, however, he has literally the [[Frank Welker|exact same voice]] of ''his'' [[Megatron (G1)|G1 counterpart]]. He even has the trademark laugh.
* In the game, the Decepticons have to fight their way past a Naval fleet in order to reach Megatron's remains. In the movie, they just sneak past them on a ship and then dive straight down.
* [[Demolishor (ROTF)|Demolishor]] is shown to be much more heavily damaged in the film, before his final moment, than in the game. For instance, in the film, his entire face is shown to be falling apart; in the game, it's fine.
* Reedman and Alice are absent from the game.
