How to unlock the Only a Prime achievement in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - Definitive Guide

The Fallen is the last boss of the game, you have to destroy him in under to pass; Cairo Pyramids - Rise Of The Fallen

Overall it's one of the easier missions in the game, you're using the powered-up version of Optimus Prime so you can fly about now which makes reaching him infinitely easier.

When you first start he'll be standing atop the pyramid in front of you, I find it best to fly up toward him and just lay into him with one of your weapons and switch when it's close to overheating, after he takes a bit of damage he'll teleport away from the pyramid and begin using a column of fire attack, just keep moving in one direction and you'll avoid this without even having to really try, continue to unload on him with both your weapons, again switching just before one is about to overheat.

After you damage him to a set amount he'll vanish and a few Decepticons will turn up, just lay waste to these guys from the air, there's only a few waves of them and they're no real threat.

Finally The Fallen will reappear atop the pyramid, this is the homestretch now, keep firing at him and once you get his health bar practically all the way down you'll trigger a short cut scene of Optimus Prime defeating The Fallen once and for all!

I've linked in some videos showing you how to beat The Fallen, use it to learn the level layout and enemy locations/attacks, doing so may come in useful if you're stuck on this mission!

This fight goes in a loop, I'll explain each part as needed. he seems to trigger each part based on his health bar, but even with a maxed out Prime, it can take a few loops (Megatron feels far more powerful, especially with his fusion cannon), a bonus of Prime is his shield to absorb some of the damage, use it whenever your getting low.. so anyway...

Part A - the Fallen is at the top of the pyramid, just fly up, and use your primary on him, swap when ever you overheat, but the secondary didn't seem as effective to me. after a few hits he'll teleport to a new side, get around to him avoiding the debris, until he triggers a 'cutscene'

Part B - He will then start using a fire column attack, which is easy to avoid fly flying to the side, he'll come from a distance, so get sight of him and fire at him as he comes towards, he'll teleport away for another go or two, then another 'cutscene'

Part C - as Sam says, a bunch of enemies will turn up, keep away from the 'Long Haul' & ones with rocket launchers, as they have a (bumblebee's) stun attack - although you can just blast them from the air, when they're all done you'll get your next 'cutscene'..
note: If you spot the Fallen on the ground on one of the paths, blast him

Which leads back to part A, followed by B, C and repeats until..
When the Fallen is low on health & triggers part C, this time, his way point will still be active, as he is at the top of the pyramid (just like in part A - So I'd just concentrate on the Fallen, keeping an eye out for any plane Decepticons, it's usually only one at a time, take them out if your getting low on health.

Defeat The Fallen (final boss) playing as Optimus Prime, to finish the Autobot campaign.

For the campaign's final boss, The Fallen is surprisingly easy to defeat and achieve a Platinum medal once you know how. At the start of the mission move to within range of him (he will be at the top of the pyramid) and get off as many headshots as you can. After a number of hits he will fly off the pyramid, hover and attack you three times. During each of his hovering phases again hit him as many times as possible, don't worry too much about evading his attacks but if you do find yourself very low on health either shoot one of the level's Skill Shots or run and hide for a few seconds). On your first playthrough he will probably still be alive at this point and will now disappear while a few waves of generic enemies enter the fight.

Once you have dispatched these he will re-appear at the top of the pyramid, so just like the very start get within range and lay into him with headshots (ignoring any other enemies and vehicles thrown at you by The Fallen). After a number of hits he will move to another side of the pyramid, so just follow him around and attack again. If he is still alive he will move a third time, again follow him around to finish him off and start the campaign's ending cut scene.

When you replay this mission (either for the Platinum medal or to grind Energon) use Breakaway and attack from the start with his Sniper Rifle, with practice it is possible to defeat The Fallen within 30 seconds or less.
