"Transformers: War For Cybertron, A six page exclusive review. PG 48"

And Holy hell we are getting a new TF game!

Sad part is it's not tied to any continuity. As the name suggests it's pretty much War Within but the Video Games on telling it seems. It's taking cues from Gears of war as a 3rd Person over the shoulder shooter. Will have a Autobot and Decepticon Campaign. They keeping quiet on Multiplayer but it will have some sort of Online modes. Like the Armada game you will be able to choose which bot you want for a mission but the other bots not chosen will be your teams AI. Enemies will drop weapons which is interchangeable. And like the movie games we won't be confined to land vehicles only. And transforming plays a good deal into gameplay.

Not a lot of vehicle mode pics, about the only one is Megatrons which has him as a less pointy version of Animateds Cybertron mode though he looks more tankish than flight capable. Most bots seem a mix between G1 and War Within with a few more influences here and there. Prime looks like they took the War Within model and just added his normal dual windows, Megatron is a more angular version of Classics (Gun) robot mode. I see an Ironhide which looks very slimmed down almost like a red Kup. I see a bot that I'm guessing is Blitzwing (closely based on his Animated form) holding a giant spiked mace weapon. Soundwave is ... well Soundwave. Like every other Con in here he is a tad sharp around the edges but He retains his classic head, chest and shoulder weapon. Another Bot is shown fighting Prime (who is holding a giant dual bladed axe) in what looks like a CR facility or holding cells in the background)

All in all it looks pretty sweet. Release is for 2010 for 360, PS3, and PC

The name of this studio provides me with a mental image of exposed buttocks on top of a double decker bus.

If you want a good (although ridiculously difficult) Transformers game, go find a copy of the PS2 game.

I would sell my left kidney for this to be amazing. The concept art looks phenomenal.

Not tied to a movie or even any particular continuity is an absolute bonus I reckon, with a bit of luck they can concentrate on making it a brilliant game more than a piece of licensed pap.

I'm going to convert to multiple religions and pray for this.

If it can iron out the flaws of the PS2 game, this could be rather amazing. More info and proper hands-on stuff is needed to form more of an idea if it's good or not though...

Just as a not safe for, well, anywhere warning though. I made the mistake of scrolling down beyond the scan to find some Family Guy incest porn. :lol:

And what's the source by the way?

What would be cleverer would be for them to consider the game a continuity in and of itself. Would give them total freedom to redesign bots and allow for important "characters" to be killed, which was something that was explicitly ruled out in the PS2 game, because it was set in Armada continuity (hence the armies of "clone-formers")

Actually, something with a bit of an RPG flavor would be awesome. Start out as an unaligned 'bot, and freely explore a war-torn Cybertron interacting with both factions.

Eh, a guy can dream.
