Transformers Revenge of the Fallen: Decepticons

Plot

The game begins when Soundwave alerts Starscream of a Decepticon protoform that is has arrived on Earth. Starscream tracks down and greets the Player as leader of the Decepticons but they are interrupted by Optimus Prime. The Player assumes an earthen vehicle mode and joins the Decepticons on Earth. The Player’s first task is to help scan and destroy several NEST data vehicles that contain Megatron's whereabouts, and then to help track down the Allspark shard.

Grindor and Starscream destroy an oil rig off the coast of England in order to distract NEST and the Autobots. With the Autobots distracted, the Player infiltrates and attacks Rome. During the attack, the Player is confronted by Bumblebee in a set of ruins. Bumblebee calls in a NEST air strike but the Player hacks into the UAVs and re-directs them. NEST carpet bomb the ruins, defeating Bumblebee. The player then travels to Siberia and infiltrates a military base in order to implant a tracking device on a helicopter that is on-route to the location of the Allspark.

While Soundwave tracks the helicopter, the Player moves to Asia where he attacks a NEST airbase. Shortly after disabling the base, Soundwave locates the shard, which has been moved to an aircraft carrier. The Player extracts the shard and Grindor lowers the Player into the Laurentian Abyss where Scalpel revives Megatron. Megatron becomes the leader of the Decepticons again, forcing an angry Starscream back to second-in-command.

In order for The Fallen to come to Earth the Decepticons disrupt the Autobot satellite defense system, which is controlled in Mexico. This allows The Fallen and his accompanying Decepticons to sneak through. The Fallen orders the retrieval of the Matrix of Leadership and the Player hunts down Jetfire, who knows of its whereabouts. The Player finds Jetfire about to depart on an aircraft carrier and is protected by Ironhide. During the battle with Ironhide, the Player turns the carrier's guns on Ironhide, defeating him. The Player offers Jetfire an ultimatum: tell him the whereabouts of the Matrix of Leadership or die. Jetfire refuses and the Player rips out Jetfire’s spark and extracts the information. The Fallen moves all Decepticon activity to Egypt, where the Matrix lies.

During the final assault, The Fallen unleashes Devastator, who uncovers the Harvester from within a pyramid, while the Player locates the Matrix of Leadership. The Player confronts and defeats Optimus Prime. The Player returns to The Fallen and proclaims his victory against Optimus Prime. With Megatron stunned by the news, The Fallen promotes the Player to the leader of the Decepticon army, much to Starscream's joy.

As the credits roll, the Fallen announces that the harvesting of Earth's sun was a success and that the energon claimed will be used to create a new Decepticon army, as they prepare to conquer the known universe.
