Transformers Dark or The Moon: Stealth Force Edition for the Wii. The PS360 version was pretty good and had decent visuals. The Wii port has a different story, poor scenary and, I swear, N64 visuals. But the insane was that the entire game is played in car form, you can't transform to robot form. Yes, it is a Transformers game were you can't transform. It was a totally lazy and crappy port and game.

i heard about it to be fair, its not really a port just a crappy spin off game.

Yes, it surely fits more like a spinoff. Actually, there isn't an easy way of porting a HD game to the Wii. You could port a X360 game to PS3 or port a PC game to X1 or port a GameCube game to PS2, but any HD port to Wii must be redone from scratch basically, since the Wii was the last console with a fixed function GPU while the HD twins use programmable ones. So it isn't simply laziness, devs had to remake the entire game.
