The word on the street is that Activision is making a new, non-movie based Transformers game. It's not clear yet which part of the Transformers lore the game will be based on.

I hope they do and that it is decent.

I'm not getting my hopes up.

Btw, can someone submit this to the news crew? The submit news function doesn't seem to be working yet.

maybe this is transformers: origins? (although i'm hoping not and that it's a soon to be released xbox live arcade game)

"...they could go and make a Transformers game based on, oh, Gen 1. Or the original film."

If this happened, and the game was as good as the Armada game, then one of my childhood dreams would come true.

I always thought it would be cool to have a game based on G1 where you can choose your Autobot to invade Decepticon headquarters on Cybertron. Sort of like MGS but with Transformers.

Seibertron.com member It Is Him found a very interesting article on kotako.com. The article is about a rumour that Activision is working on a non-movie based Transformers game due to be released in 2010.
But is is more than just a rumour or is is the truth, will this mark the released of the cancelled Armada sequel or might it even be based on G1?
We'll just have to wait and see.

While I love that idea, something about giant robots being stealthy just doesn't make sense.

Hope its a G1 game. We've never had a real G1 game. Also hope its a full game and not some crap DLC.

We were denied a Cybertron video game. Perhaps it's that.

My childhood dream Transformer game would have played like the X-Men or TMNT arcade games. It made sense at the time. The Armada game was great, though.

I hope it's based on the classics/universe line, with jetfire as a playable character.
B-)

An Armada sequel would be the BEST. Especially with Demolisher and Jetfire and other characters as playable characters. I'd settle of r a classics line too, that's be awesome. NOTHING beats Armada Tidal Wave, though. :grin:
