and yes the music was not the best but it's not worth hating.

No, it's pretty ****. Not fitting of Transformers at all. My generation really has no taste in music at all.

Y'know, I hate crappy shooters. I was gamer before this mediocre crap dominated the market, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth every time I see someone gush over another installment in CoD, GoW, UT or Halo. After having had the pleasure to buy and play the last game, I think I'm just going to rent this. The story is probably going to be downhill from the last seeing as the continuity has been ****** to hell. Admittedly though, some of the articles I've read have given me higher hopes. But depending on how Jazz is handled, perhaps particularly his voice actor as much as his story (I'd hope for Phil LaMarr), I may boycott both the game and TFPrime for the foreseeable future, seeing as how they are the same continuity.

sorry u feel that way. And yes the music didn't really fit the moment for some. it did for me. the music itself wasn't the good thing it was the lyrics. it made me feel like optimus prime may start doubting himself and his cause as well as think about whether or not it will ever be accomplished which really suits the mood for a FALL OF CYBERTRON, for me anyways.
and i do feel the same way about how everyone gushes at the newest shooter to come out.

Which continuity? This ain't G1.

I'd hope for Scott Whyte, since he voiced him in the last game.

No... no. that's not what I'm talking about.

I'm talking about Exodus man.

He barely even said anything. And he's white. Also judging from what little I heard he does not sound like jazz.

I like emotional music sometimes. But I hate "emo" music. That may sound contradictory, it kind of is. It's hard to explain, but I hate this kind of music in particular more than any. If I'm going to listen to something emotional I'd rather it take a more classical approach.

Soundwave did get shot, but he obviously isn't dead, as this leads into Prime.

EDIT: Almost forgot to say - the music on this trailer does not fit. At all.

by **Stellerwolf** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:54 am

Was the only one thats watched this lest 30+ times and cryed alittle? Ironhide hammering Starscream, Bumblebee shot, Jazz blasting away Soundwave, combiners Bruticus and Grimlock. Fall is too far away.

For anyone who likes the song in the trailer, it is by Puscifer, the track is called The Humbling River. The lead singer is a guy named Maynard, he has had some other little bands you may be aware of.

It has been corrected.

Va'al appreciates too!

Just a small point to make to all the trailer's soundtrack:

The song is The Humbling River, by Puscifer.
Puscifer is one of TOOL's Maynard James Keenan's side-projects.

I understand and accept that people can have different views on music.
Even more so on what is fitting and what not, as it all comes down to subjective opinions.

I do not, however, agree that it can be classified as 'emo' (unless you mean emotional, at which point most music would fall under the same category).
There is some pretty tasteless stuff out there, but please - let's stop generalising.

Back on track - I like the trailer! :grin:

EDIT: GetRightRobot, you beat me to it.

they should totally make a tie-in movie with that level of CGI for these games. its gorgeous and just looks great. its kinda crazy when videogame cut scenes/trailers are better than some actual major studio movies.

speaking of CGI Transformers, Shout has the complete first season up for pre-order in both dvd and blu-ray and it does indeed include the 5 part Darkness Rising arc. it comes out in march.

Couldn't agree more. If there are any Final Fantasy 7 fans out there, they know what I mean when I say we need an Advent Children for these games!

No... no. that's not what I'm talking about.

I'm talking about Exodus man.

This is as much tied in with Exodus as WFC was. The two are similar, but largely divergent. Though, this game looks to be a sort of adaptation of chapters 38-39 of Exodus, much like how Exodus chapters 16-38 were an adaptation of WFC. Don't think of them all as being one continuity, but as one continuity family.

He sounded alright to me. - http://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/voice-compare/Transformers/Jazz/

If not him, then at least someone who doesn't sound too drastically different form his Jazz voice.

Yep, that's made a mess of my undies.

The only thing that bugs me slightly is the similarity to Gears of War's style of trailers and ads.

by **dinogeist** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 1:52 pm

cool trailer,the game looks like it's gonna be awesome. it looks like they can keep doing these games for at least a decade.

too bad we'll never get a pre-quel on cybertron movie in theathres.

That's what all the movie prequel comics are for. Don't read comics? That's your problem.

I find it disappointing the game series did not get a dedicated line, but a hanful of figures that I feel took away chances at other characters in said line.

With those fantastic looking designs of FoC on the way in game-form, I can't help but wonder what characters will be shunned.

It's getting a much better line this time around.

It is? This is the first I've heard of it.
