Mannn, I loved this game as a kid. It was an absolute blast just running around as a Transformer and destroying the city. Wait, there were missions and a story? Oh.

Yeah I know what you Mean man the Nostalgia is real, I got this game when I was 8 for the PS2 cool thing was My dad had gotten me the OG PS3 for Christmas which was backwards compatible, I'll never forget how cool it felt playing this game on my Top Bunk in my room with that Wireless Dualshock 3 for the 1st time. It felt futuristic to my 8 year old self.

The DS versions of Transformers (2007) are definitely the best versions of the first movie's tie-in games (with the Decepticons version being the best one).
"What did I do wrong?" I dunno, ben, it did say in the mission briefing that you had a time limit after showing a cutscene of comms trucks escaping and there was a timer ticking down to zero in the middle of the screen while you chased vehicles heading to the edges of the map. I feel like those might've been clues as to your objectives, no idea what they could mean though haha. Ya big goof haha.

If someone else is editing these Worst Games Ever videos now, does this mean we can finally see the long awaited return of the stats screen that you guys used to have? Those little funny factoids that you guys used to use were golden and I remember that Peter said he only removed them because it was too much extra work to think of a fact each week. Please may we see these return? Pretty please!

I'll pay for that to return... Maybe make it a tier on Patreon? If they have X number of people at that specific price tier each month they'll bring those back? I've never subscribed (or whatever it's called) to any Patreon before, but I would for this. I have never used discord and don't give a flub about that. But I'd pay for the return of the stats screen. In fact... I'm not saying it's easy. I know nothing about video editing... But it's a short gif with some funny text. Can't be *that* much work right? Just that it's extra on top of what they already do... Can we just do them ourselves and send them in? I'm not suggesting 50 people a month send in different ones that they have to go through to make sure they aren't inappropriate for any number of reasons... But hire a freelancer they trust? Again... I'll chip in for their salary
The Fisher Price car becoming Peter’s canonical automobile is the best Must be awful to insure though, it’s already missing the passenger sides door
I'm convinced Ben was supposed to keep a straight face when Peter came in, but was physically incapable of keeping his joy contained.
I loved this game back in the day, it felt like playing GTA but with Big Scary Robots instead of a regular dude.
I like to think the action is called “convert” because they paid for all the licensing but forgot to get permission to use “transform” 😂

Close. "Transform" and "transformers" are technically generic words that wouldn't be trademarkable today. Hasbro believes that if they used "transform" instead of "convert" as a verb they'd risk exposing just how generic the word really is and losing the trademark.

Bruh, i love this game, sure, nostalgia plays a part, but ill never forget getting it at gamestop as a kid and looking at tge transforming bumblebee on the cover of the case. I think for what it is its not bad. Especially for a movie game. You get to play both sides, collect items for bonus content and g1 character skins, and you get to enjoy open world free roam, to a limited degree, but still. I think its a 6/10
Fun Fact: Transformers have always officially “converted” as opposed to “transform” - at least when it comes to the original toys and not the cartoon.

yeah it's because they don't want "transform" to be a catch all term for a transforming toy, because if it becomes a generic term, they have a harder time maintaining their trademark on the very word their franchise is centred around.

Loved this game just for driving around and causing chaos lmao
It doesn’t happen often, but I do love it when Tiny Peter is willing to dance around like an idiot for our entertainment.
FLIP YEAH BOYS YOUR FACES WERE TRULY MISSED! yaaaaay!!
Together at Last!!! Welcome back! Is this the first time seeing each other in person since the pandemic?
There was an off brand toy line, that was called Converters. I was given one by my dad, who knew I liked Transformers, but he figured any toy that did that, would be fine!
That intro is why I love you guys. EPIC.
Peter riding in on his car was just the best thing.
A few seconds in and I'm reminded why I love you guys! keep it up :)
Firstly, love the fact that you guys are back together in the studio! Secondly, love the fact that it ended with the TV dying! 😂
We've got tankformers on the sex box, we've got James Jenkem on the edit and we've got Return of the Malc on loop. This gonna be good
I've been waiting what feels like an eternity for that intro. Thanks boyz. The dynamic duo is back in action!

Now you two are back in the office, can we get a good pic of Peter as the master and Ben as the victim. Peter always looks so scared in the photo shot you use, even when he’s the master lol
I actually think this game is an underrated classic, a hidden gem even. I have played this game several times since I first played it when I was 7, and this is not nostalgia talking. I played PS3 version though; I still love this game so much.
Somewhere in the depths of KZread is a let’s play of me n my friend josh playing this game
Great success, James! Awesome to have the boys back together too!
Also love how youse insert the garlic and chips reference's in most of your videos lately hahah
Shout out to James Jenkins for that beautifully edited video. Keep up the good work my dude!
"If you do get your hands on her, you can't share her with friends" That may be the most pained metaphor I've Ever heard
Hoping Ben recieved the same intro welcome party upon entry 🙏🏻
That intro should be TripleJump the movie's beginning, I was READY for that video
I've watched all episodes of WGE so far and never guessed a review % good or bad exactly until this very episode, you have no idea how happy about this I am!! Also, as a Converters fan I'm glad I never played this...particular installment.
That intro was fantastic, and the tv failing was an incredible way to end.
The game might not be the best, but saying it’s one of the “Worst” is a far stretch, it’s an decent game I’d say. Loved it as a kid but I know that it has flaws but it’s certainly not an Terrible game
I remember 7 year old me absolutely loving this game. Just going round the city blowing everything up, gotta go replay it now see if it was just nostalgia
so flippin good to see the crew back together again! (the facecam was not a bit much for me)

I really loves this game as a kid. Completed it like 3 times i loved playing as megatron at the end. I found this game better than the games after this. I mean you could pick up cars and throw it at other transformers and hit them with light poles

I just started watching, so I don't actually know how this goes. But this was a personal favorite of mine when It came out.

To answer the question of "convert" (taken from Tfwiki) - For reasons relating to intellectual property law, and the need to preserve "Transformers" as a trademark, Hasbro and Takara do not use "transform" as a verb to describe this ability of Transformers in printed materials describing products. Instead synonyms such as "convert" and "morph" are used. Products that are not able to change modes are given a disclaimer such as "product does not convert". This disclaimer extends to the Kre-O Transformers and Kreon Micro-Changers, indicating that "convert" is used in a technical sense that does not apply to the "disassemble and rebuild" play pattern of Kre-O toys. For some time, this restriction didn't extend to in-fiction dialogue. However, in more recent times this has changed. James Roberts has said that Hasbro has asked that other terms be used when writing IDW comics such as More Than Meets the Eye. Exceptions have been made, though, when dialogue or drama strongly called for it, such as the NAIL who transformed himself to death. How to Say Goodbye and Mean It[3] In Fall of Cybertron, Ratchet actually commands Bumblebee to "change form and roll out", and Optimus Prime only ordered his team to "transform and roll out" twice during the Prime cartoon, opting instead for a "roll out" for the majority of the series.
That intro was pure gold.
Daamn that Return of the Mac MIDI is hella smooth
Return of the Mack in the intro? Respect.
The funny boys are back in the studio. what a joyous day!

dang, having that tiny car, must be a big benefit of being little. Never any trouble finding parking. And it must be really fuel-efficient since it runs on leg power.
