Pretty sure they said that this game (along with the Rage of Dinobots comic) bridges the 2nd and 3rd season.
They said it's set concurrently within season 2 somewhere, but they didn't specify where.

Which leads me to believe that it's gonna be another one of those headache-inducing cases trying to find a place to fit it in with the show. :roll:
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

Dreadwing's in there, so after "Loose Cannons", at least.

Also, the Insecticons seem to be a threat, and no sign of Airachnid or Breakdown. Sometime after "Armada?"

That makes it even harder since "Armada" starts the beginning of the global relic hunt, going all the way to "Hurt" in one continuous storyline.

Spleenzorio wrote:Yes Wii U will be stronger that all current gen consoles. It's hilarious thinking any gaming console coming out would only be on par with something that came out six or seven years before. As for the screenshots, well I'll wait til closer to the game's launch (two months from now) before I make any judgement.


It's slightly more powerful, ever so slightly. No big leap here but it is full 1080p and not upscaled as the current gen is. You've also got to keep in mind Halo 2 vs. Halo 4 in terms of graphics (the one coming out next month vs. the first on 360). It came a long way from Halo 2. It'll probably take a while for the devs to get used to the machine and wring all the power they can from it plus Wii never really was about mind blowing graphics. It was the experience they were shooting for. It's improved here but still the same end goal. Besides next year and then the year after the PS4 and the next xbox come out if better graphics are what you are after. No console will ever beat a PC in graphic capability and performance to end my little speech, the tech evolves too fast and you can't just pop in a new gpu in a console. The game looks decent enough. If it plays well is the big question IMO. Other games I've seen for the Wii-U looked better, it's just a rushed port so I'll wait til I play to pass judgement.

As I said before, I'm only going to watch let's plays of the game to learn how this fits into the storyline. The graphics turn me off, and I don't have the money to spare in the first place.
