Two versions of DS Transformers News

DS News by Robert Purchese

25 April, 2007

Vicarious Visions is creating two versions of the DS Transformers game, one for Autobot fans and one for Decepticon supporters.

All you have to do is pick your side when the game launches on 20th July, then go head-to-head with the opposing side using Wi-Fi multiplayer.

These "Allspark Wars" will be won by conquering the daily challenge missions and by dominating the global player leaderboards. You'll also be able to face off against three of your friends in local wireless Team Death Matches and AllSpark Sports showdowns.

There's also 20 story and 20 challenge missions to get stuck into on your own, where you can develop your custom Transformer's stats and abilities. The developer is also including customisable paint-jobs and over 30 unique vehicles to morph into.

Both versions of the game will include a host of open environments to explore, as well as unique and exclusive content. So, Autobots will be treated to Antarctic levels while Decepticons will be gifted with desert adventures.

Transformers will also be appearing on almost every other platform. Traveller's Tales is handling the console outings and Savage Entertainment is taking care of the PSP offering.

All games will be launched roughly around the same time as the new Transformers film, which is due out on 29th June.

Pop over to our recent Transformers preview to see how it's all shaping up.

I think majority would identify more with Autbots and if so would be unbalanced with all autobots waiting to thrash poor outnumbered Decepticon.

I for one will take the side of the misunderstood defenders of the right to be assertive.

Autobots are wired the wrong way and they are so....gay!

I always thought the decepticons would be more popular...

I'm glad Vicarious are doing the DS versions. Usually handheld ports of franchises are farmed out to the kind of developers who do little more than a side scrolling collect-/beat-/shoot-emup.

So, wait... I only get to play as one side in each? That's rather rubbish, isn't it?
