Transformers: The War for Cybertron

Yeah, that trailer was rad. Hopefully we'll see some gameplay soon.
 
Nice trailer, I think this is something I will be buying when it comes out
 
Last Transformers game I played was the Armada one for PS2, which was great. I might pick this up, will be watching news you guys post on it from time to time in here.

Also, I didn't read the comics, but am familiar with the War Within design's. So I'm liking the game designs this time around. You can throw me in the group of people who don't care too much for the Bay design's, and like the older design's better (atleast for the most part). I mean I'm all for liking something based on it's own merits, I like G1 the best, but don't automatically put down anything that came after just because it's not G1. It's just that Bay's transformers have too much going on, there were parts in the movies (especially the first) where the fighting looked like a tornado going thru a scrapyard and throwing spare parts around. It was hard to tell what part of a bot you were looking at at times when they were moving.
 
I'm really digging the look of this game

This game looks awesome! I really hope it turns out that way!
 
The gameplay trailer finally won me over. I'm really excited for this game now. :up:
 
Some details from GTTV:

2 Campaigns.
The Decepticon campaign takes place before the Autobot campaign.
3 player, drop-in/out, online co-op for the campaign
Huge focus on multiplayer.

They also revealed some story details. You can watch the episode HERE.
 
3-player co-op? That's a weird co-op number.

I hope the single-player campaigns aren't neglected because of this MP focus. I usually don't bother with MP.
 
I hope the SP will deliver, but I'm also looking forward to the MP. Even in a mediocre game like Revenge of the Fallen, the MP made lots of fun.
 
I just don't even play MP most of the time. I have no tolerance for playing with obnoxious strangers, and it's usually a bit of a nightmare to coordinate between time zones and other stuff well enough to play with friends.
 
I really just cant wait for this game, I think it will be the Arkham Asylum of the year. It wont win game of the year but it will be beaten by an obvious winner.
 
I'm loving how much character development they're putting in, recruiting Starscream into the 'Cons and seeing Optimus grow into becoming Prime. It gives me faith that the single player will be just as high quality as the multiplayer.
 
I'm loving the multi-player idea. There are games I want to be solo, like Uncharted, or Batman AA. However I can see this being a massive war, lasers everywhere, and being able to go single player or multi without it ruining the experience. It's not like Resident Evil 5 where I complained that multi-player could take the scare out of it somewhat since you're no longer alone.

Tho I do want to stress, that that only extends to liking multi-player as long as it doesn't hurt single player. Especially if bosses become too easy with multi or too hard with single. If the game becomes unplayable when playing alone, yeah I'd rather multi-player be left as nearly a seperate entity with capture and death match. I don't think it will tho, IMO, co-op in something like this is a plus. Being able to be Prime, and having someone else as Iron Hide, and someone else as...let's say they include Ultra Magnus, and us gunning down everything, awesome.
 
Yeah, I don't mind MP, even though I don't play it myself very much. I just don't want them to focus too much on that and neglect the SP. Co-op definitely sounds good, though, and if it's co-op through the SP campaign, they're probably giving the SP campaign its fair share of attention.
 
Haha, man, that takes me back. Cullen's actually doing Optimus' voice for the game, right? I thought I read that somewhere...
 
Wikipedia says he's voicing Prime and it's got sources. I didn't check the sources, but I figure if they have them for something as trivial as video game casting, it's probably legit.
