I guess this MAY be more successful than bot-shots...but Angry Birds is dumb. It's an app game, but if you followed the Star Wars cross-over those toys were just jenga with balls and they didn't seem to sell.
But what do I know?

I have been into transformers since 1984.
While I love G1 I also love new innovations and takes on the characters.
I prefer official Hasbro releases of stuff for the most part
I'm not a huge fan of Japanese original Transformers media or designs.
It's easier for me to say which are my LEAST favorite toy lines: Beast Machines, Robots in Disguise.
TFCon List: Classics Skywarp, General Optimus, BW Airrazor, Transmetal Tarantulus, Alternity Prime, Fire Convoy

At least they transform, even if all of them transform the same way. I might pick up one of these at some point.

Pig sacrifice, Autobots and Decepticons fighting together (I mean, Astrotrain dumping out Optimus, who then calls what looks to be Quake to help him defeat a giant robot...?), mass hysteria!
So what is this game's gameplay even supposed to be, anyway? Skylanders style, or something? Because I think the Angry Birds theme has strayed a bit too far away from what it was originally intended if that is the case.

I think it's adorably awesome. I liked the original version of Angry Birds, and this trailer is enticing me. Wasn't expecting what looks to be a co-op mode with the Autobirds and the Deceptihogs.

Oh my goodness, they NEED to make a cartoon with that animation! If only TF: Prime had looked as bright, colorful, and FUN! 
Though, I am very confused about the end. I don't play Angry Birds, but I thought that the pigs were the bad guys. So why did Megahog come to help out Optimus Red like they were best buddies or something?

Well, Megatron... er, Megahog.... the pig tank, did do a "too slow" hand shake fake and laughed at Optibird or whatever he's called, so it's not totally friendly? Not sure why they'd be cooperating after Birdimus just offed a few pigcopters, but hey, it's $$$ for Hasbro and Rovio I guess? Totally does look like Skylanders with birds and pigs.

Telepods.
Basically when you buy the figures they have a little QR code on the bottom of them, put them on the Telepod then place that on your phone/tablet and it scans the QR code and "teleports" the figure into the game.

Is it so hard to believe that someone could find it confusing that a guy who's supposed to be a Megatron analogue was willing to come to the rescue of a guy who's suppose to be an Optimus Prime analogue, for seemingly no other reason than that the Optimus bird was in trouble and needed his help?Burn wrote:Sabrblade wrote:"Why?" not "How?"Burn wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Though, I am very confused about the end.

Stuck on a level in Angry Birds? Telepod a character in to help you. It doesn't matter if it's a good guy or bad guy. That's how Telepods work.
The concept of good vs evil is cast aside in favour of generating revenue.
Now if that's not a good enough answer for you then I doubt anyone could answer it any better.

If you or anyone else doesn't know, then that's fine.
If they hadn't includeed the clip about putting a figure on an Ipad, I can understand why the bad guy helping the good guy would be confusing, but they show us scanning the figure in, so it in effect becomes no different than the way the Lego Star Wars series could allow you to customize and play as alternate characters. Teh Megatron you see in the end is NOT the Megatron of the game, its a seperate, clone character of Megatron. its the Megatron of the toy. In all likelyhood, its possible to see a Megatron vs. Megatron matchup in this way.
Does this answer your question, Sabr? If not, I don't think we're understanding the question?

Yeah, I think I get the gist of it. I don't play Angry Birds, so seeing Megs helping Optimus like a friendly rival was weird to see.

the telepod thing is a joke...first off if you use any kind of protective case on your phone or tablet, you gotta remove it as it can't read it properly and the pod needs to be perfectly flush to the camera. that wouldn't be too big an issue if the character you "scanned in" actually stayed in your game but nope...soon as you turn off the game, you gotta re-scan it if you want it back in there next time you play.
that said, i am curious to see how the gameplay of this one will be like. and there will likely be a bunch of toys released so i'd very much get their Starscream in some form.

Seems like a memory-conservation issue? That would be a nice feature though.
