Santa Monica, CA - May 18, 2007 - TRANSFORMERS: The Game, from Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI), developed under license from HPG the licensing division of Hasbro, Inc.

"We have a fantastic line-up that includes original talent from the animated TV series and the upcoming film, bringing together the best of both worlds."

Playing as OPTIMUS PRIME, BUMBLEBEE, MEGATRON, BARRICADE and other characters, gamers will experience the unstoppable power and massive scale of their favorite ROBOTS IN DISGUISE as they battle for Earth.

Gee, that's a confusing headline. Here I thought they were going to make a TV series based on the game - which would also be based on the movie. That would've made no sense at all.

I'll probably pick it up for the PS3 and maybe the Wii if it takes advantage of the Wii-mote that is...
