Some game play footage is out, not allot, but it looks pretty interesting, looks as if they are aiming for gen x, hopefully it will be the first decent transformers game out.

I noticed some familiar faces, what to me seems like my personal favourite old Soundwave, and also what seems like Bumblebee, Ironhide, and Ratchet.

I am really excited about this game. What I love is that they are taking the same approach as Batman: Arkham Asylum. Take a character that is old and well known that has been revived in recent years through films (except the Batman ones were good) and put a retro spin on a new video game. I love that, like Arkham, it is a fresh story that is true to the comics and tv series over the movies. Batman is a great example of how a licensed game can be successful, and I like this game will follow in it's footsteps.

Batman: Arkham Asylum is one of the best games released in 2009 in my opinion. If Transformers: War for Cybertron does for Transformers what Batman: Arkham Asylum did for Batman in terms of games, I will need a clean pair of pants.

Choosing the War for Cybertron story is a smart move as not too many people know it, which means they have more freedom.

Thanks for the link, DarthSion :thumbup:

You can see it on www.transformersgame.com as well, it just doesn't have any news or anything, just tha vid.
But I'm really excited about this game.

Agreed, that's the reason I love it so far. A new story to play, and more history/background of the Transformers universe for me to discover :wub:

And of course, also the futuristic looks to the ~~cars~~ vehicles :devil:

HaHa that was cool, some footage i hadn't seen, the face of the big decepticon looks sort of like ravage.

That would be Trypticon, the Decepticon battle station/city that transforms into a dinosaur. What's not to love Posted Image

The toys look pretty nifty for it as well.

And all I can say is that Omega Supreme OWNED that decepticon.

Yeah but it doesn't change the fact his face looks like ravage.

Ok so we have Trypticon, but what about Metroplex? Personally I'd like to see two city transforming robots duke it out.

I really, really, really hope that they don't mess this game up. After the disaster of Aliens vs. Predator, I would be thrilled if they got this right. If the multi-player is as good as Mr. Tieger says it will be, I can finally put away Modern Warfare 2 for a good loooong time. :laugh:

I can't wait to find out more of the Transformers they put in, it was pretty encouraging to hear him talk about the inclusiveness they wanted to achieve. Oh, and while I can't imagine they would do such a thing, if I can't play as Soundwave....instant boycott.

Thanks for that!

It looks very interesting, I wonder how free you are in that "create your own Transformer" thingy.
There are also some other interesting vids about TF:WfC. Mainly the "Making of...#1" vid. I can't recall it's exact title but you'll know what I mean when you see it.

Man this game is gonna rock, can't wait for it to come out :devil:

Not surprising Ironhide has been confirmed for play, anyone who knows anything knew he would be in it, not a bad redesign, still better than butcher bays horrible design.

For the decepticons, Skywarp.

Don't know if this has been discussed, but if you reserve the game at GameStop, you get to play Shockwave in game. :cry_happy:

Still looking forward to playing as a scout classed Autobot. :classic:

Well, it's a good thing neither are anywhere near my favorite characters, 'cause I can't pre-order at any of those shops.

Thanks for the vids though, they look nice.
But I gotta say, Jazz looks a little but too much like his "human" version.
Demolishor looks nice, though. He reminds me a bit of both Megatron in his RotF tank-form and Batman's Tumbler :grin:

I hope we get new character news soon :sweet:

Well i know here in Australia if you pre-order ratchet and clank a crack in time from ebgames you got a bonus level called the moon from the start, but if you had the normal game you had to collect all these things called zoni, my point being you still got to use the level on the normal version, so i assume it would be the same thing these, maybe get them for doing trophies or something.

Thanks for the link DarthSion.

This 'create your own transformer' thing looks really interesting to me. I just wonder how limited it will be (as in; can you also choose colors and stuff).
Also... it's only for multiplayer. But is that online multiplayer or also if you just wanna battle a friend who handles the joystick, sitting next to you?
'Cause I don't do online stuff. :blush:

I think I missed your previous post, but thanks for those links as well, the pictures are very cool and I can't wait to see what Silverbolt and Brawl look like :devil:

Hmm im not sure, i know you can have 2 players in story mode, not sure about multi-player.

I know i know, but they get it right some times, this has some interesting stuff, like which transformers will be in it.
