I'm a massive Transformers fan but picking up cars and chucking them at stuff is all rather mundane to me after Crackdown executed it so well. This game will have to come up with something special which I really don't think it's going to. Destoyable environments would be good though.

Melbourne House's take on Transformers was an amazing game that pushed the PS2 far beyond anyone's expectations. Chances of any Transformers game ever being better than that are slim to none.

.::: Well at least you won't be able to die. (Considering both the LEGO SW dev AND Hasbro are involved.)

Why does it have to be so dark and moody? Transformers is all about primary colours and cheesy moments!

Raping beloved series in all-platform movie adaptions should be punishable by law. :(

Activision's Callum Godfrey has responded to the first wave of hesitant previews, saying "We're really disappointed you guys didn't get an accurate impression of what Transformers: The Game is all about and the direction in which we're headed."

In other words, "We know it's going to be a bit crap, but you don't have to tell everyone else that."

TF FTW, rubbish quick-buck tie-ins...well, you know.

The draw distance in the PS2 TF game is second only to Shadow of the Colossus. Go back now and look at it and it looks drab but at the time :O


You'd think it would near impossible to fuck up ANY movie and/or game based on awesome cars, planes, trucks, construction vehicles etc. that turn in to giant Robots with names like Optimus Prime, Starscream and DEVASTATOR but i'm sure they will.

And yet you give EDF3 a 9! A 9!

Sorry, realise it's apples and oranges. Or apples and magnetohydrodynamic spindles.

It will be junk, regardless of the platform.

The developers history, despite Lego SW and 2, doesn't exactly fill me with confidence.

Who's going to boycott this because they didn't use the "classic" boxy designs?

Do these new Transformers actually fit into the object they're mimicking? I'm looking at that screenshot, and if it can truly become a car (Mustang I'm guessing), I'll eat my pubes.

Melbourne House's Transformers game was excellent - a great shooter and I actually thought the locations (albeit they were a bit samey) were spot on. The CG cut-scenes were great, especially the boss battle intros and although the level designs didn't really make use of the ability to transform that much, I thought they pretty much nailed it.

I'd definitely buy a direct sequel to that game - this... I want it to be good, but that preview hasn't really inspired me with confidence. One to wait for the review on methinks.

I didn't like the Lego SW games all that much, so I'm not exactly filled with hope.

Schiraman, are you missing the word 'looking' about 8-9 words in or did you actually enjoy the game itself? Honestly, cause I'm a Transformers fanboy like the rest of us but that game wasn't that fun.

The Takara game ... hahaha that was actually very close to so bad it's good territory, but not quite. So yeah, it sucked.
