Two levels in to the Autobot story the game refused to auto-save to my harddrive.  A message said that I had no more memory left despite having 60 gigs free.  Then, rather than lose my progress I went back to the last checkpoint.  After the cut seen at the end of the level the game kinda froze.  All I had was a first person view of the last level.  I could pan the camera around and see the autobots standing frozen but the game wouldn't advance.  This happened five times in a row after which I gave up.  This along with my pre-order redeemtion codes not working is the last straw.  Buyer beware! (Xbox 360 version).

I had a re-occurring freezing issue playing the demo--on my new slim xbox--, so I don't doubt your issues. Kinda lame.

That's what you get for buying movie based games.

i had the same issues... LAME

" i had the same issues... LAME "

There is a lot of loosely throwing around the word "canon" in here. I believe using the word canon for a cartoon/toy series is a little deep for me. If the game has the song, "You've Got the Touch, You've Got the Power" in it from the original cartoon movie in the 80's in it, THEN I officially OK it for everyone to use the word canon in this thread. If not, you all need to leave post haste.

I haven't suffered any glitches to be honest.  Course I admit my time spent with this game... even if I did find a glitch tomorrow I wouldn't return it. As far as redemption codes, did you go to the listed website and enter the code they gave you?  Registered an account, and then used the code from the website to unlock your character?  A lot of people try to just enter the code the retailer gives them... it will not work.  you must go to the website listed with the code and enter it there. (Site will require you to register with them.)  Before you start giving out the "Buyer Beware" warnings that we commonly see with all console games because one or two people rage quit after some odd glitch, try three options. 
 
1. Check your save location.  Should you have a repeating save error, you will probably have to delete your game data.  (This is commonly due to the system being shut off during a save point.  BTW warning to slim users, a update will be released for your systems bios, as there were some issues with power management.  Nothing dangerous but in some cases the systems went into a sleep mode during game play. (which could cause the data corruption problem is poorly timed.) ) 
 
2. Check the surface of the disk. Are there separations in the bands, scratches or any visible flaws.   (If so return to the store for a replacement.) 
 
3. If the top two things fail, ask a friend to borrow their copy, rent a copy of the game, or return to the store for a replacement. 
 
If these do not resolve your issue... then come on the forum and post a "Buyer Beware"  Flukes happen when millions of discs are manufactured and you may just be one of the 1 in a million people who got a bad disc.  Sadly the gaming community is filled with people who make over stated claims about the defects of products without trying to resolve issues.  It is unfortunate that you can not play this game... it is a great title.  Especially if you are a transformers fan.  I recommend trying the above methods, then if they do not work getting your disc replaced.  as a 360 user, who has completed the game... this error never occurred for me and appears to be a rare thing.

Any word on the PC version? Does it run ok?

" That's what you get for buying movie based games. "

I'm gonna have to rent this and check it out, namely because I wanna get the story in there.  The fact that Hasbro has recognized this as canonical intrigues me, and then there's that whole part about showing Starscream when he was with the Autobots...defecting over to the Decepticons. 
 
I wasn't impressed with the multiplayer demo, though.  =  /

My friend has the PS3 version, and it's seems rock solid from what I've heard. He hasn't had any issues, and is enjoying it quite a bit.

" @Laketown: That sounds kinda dumb. A hard lock at 60FPS I can deal with, but 30FPS? That is like an insult to us PC gamers! :P "

My save file got fucked to, luckily it was just a rental but still pissed me off bad.

I don't think he was an Autobot. It looked like he was part of something called the Sky Guard. The peons Starscream had in his base were completely different than the Autobot ones you run into later. "

might just be that copy, I had a similar problem with my Dark Void, everytime I finish chapter 3, the game will just stay in a cut scene style state where all i see are mountains and it won't advance. I never really heard anyone else with that problem, so you could just try to get another copy

I dont remember exactly because its been so long but i want to say that they all jets were part of the decepticons from the get go. I think when the wars started the Autobots(keepers of Cyberton, workers and healers) and the Decetpticons(Military forces of Cybertron) started swaping sides, thus the Tanks and Jets in the ranks of the Cars and Trucks and vise versa. In the cartoon Jetfire was a Decepticon built for war but he wasnt evil, thus he defected. "

Weird. My disc works perfectly without any problems, and I played it on my Xbox 360.

A licensed game is broken?
 
I never thought I'd see the day...

Very strange. I've played through the entire Decepticon campaign and I am on the third level of the Autobot campaign and I haven't had any problems with freezing or saving. I'm playing it on PS3, but so far it's ran just fine (aside from the 20+ minute initial day one patch/crazy loading/longest install ever).

I haven't had any issues with the 360 version(installed), but I'm just going to be starting the Autobot campaign tonight.

During the golden age of Cybertron he was a explore/scientist. And worked with Skyfire. But when the war broke out he went to the other side.  "

Right but I remember specifically that he had a Decepticon logo when they thawed him out of the ice block.  "

I had the "cannot save, blah blah" thing pop up on me - but it still saved. No idea what went on there.  
 
I also had one freeze during my entire run through the Decepticon and Autobot campaigns, but I think I caused it. I was racing around as Bumblebee and I'm pretty sure I got somewhere I wasn't supposed to be and broke the scripting of the level. Other than that, no problems.

I'd like to take this moment to thank Mr Activision for finally putting up the pre-order code redemtion site for their valued Australian and European customers (four days after I picked up my pre-order, and 24 hours after I returned it for being busted.)  Good job Activision!

I picked up the 360 version and have had no such issue.

That's ok, it's not an amazing game anyway.

Yea I had a weird save issue as well on the 360 (also there have been some wacky co cop stuff with people flying through the roof or getting locked out of areas)

It was hard to notice though because I was jumping up and down with joy playing as megatron and listening to Soundwave give me reports.
