Looks like iPhone and iPod owners will be getting more Transformers action on their portable devices. Glu Mobile, creator of the mobile phone application Transformers G1 Awakening has announced that it will be making a version of the game, released in 2008, for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Here's a synopsis provided by Glu Mobile:

Based on the original story of Transformers, use the strengths of each Autobot to defeat the Decepticons in turn-based strategic battles. Capture sources of Energon power to reactivate, repair or upgrade your Transformers. Featuring up to 23 playable characters and a skirmish mode to play friends as Autobots or Deceptions, there is more to Transformers G1: Awakening than meets the eye.

No other details on the game have been furnished, other than that it is "Coming Soon". You can view the source article by clicking here.

YouTube member SlideToPlay has gotten ahold of the upcoming mobile application game Transformers G1 Awakenings for the iPhone, that we originally reported here, and has posted a video of it.

For the most part, the gameplay remains the same as the original release intended for select mobile phones that we reported on here. Depending on which type of phone you had, the graphics and touch screen response to the iPhone version appears to be a nice upgrade. More details on the game as they become available.

Ehh, looks ok. I have the original version. It irritates me. I'm stuck on Speed Demons

Yeah i have the same problem. The game must has a glitch or something cause on some levels, (particularly Carnivore and Speed Demons) it just wont acknowledge that ive beaten the level, even if ive accomplished all the objectives. It just keeps playing like theres more Decepticons about and it wont give you anymore energon either. Its really a pain in the neck considering Speed Demons is a pain to beat.

I don't think my game is glitching, but by the time I'm able to take out Megatron and Trypticon, Tryps has summoned the Seekers and Soundwave who has summoned his cassettes.

At that point I only ever have one bot left :-(

It's graphics are much better than the previous versions,especially the battles.I wish other touchscreen mobiles get this new version.
I would love to see an even more improved version for DS, but deep inside me I know there is no hope for something like this to happen.... :-(

Egh, not the greatest looking game, but if I had phone that was new enough to run it (ie: newer than 6 YEARS OLD!!), I'd probably play.

Hey, does anyone know if that old TF Net Jet game still works, like in offline mode or something? I've seen them on ebay for like $10 but don't know if it even works with the server shut down.

Frenzy is blue. Frenzy is red. Frenzy is black. Frenzy is silver.

Opps, never mind, answered my own question - Battle Universe isn't playable. Unless someone copied it somehow.

Because Frenzy is blue and Rumble is red. The only time this isn't true is the G1 cartoon and animated movie.

Also... WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're supposed to use your speed to avoid Megs and Tryps and constantly power up two of your attackers. You're going to want to do it with the two ranged guys. Then hold off on sending in the close combat dudes until Trypticon summons backup. Use the ranged characters as snipers once their attack rates hit around 150+. Then if needed start upgrading the other two if they're not dead. The key is to stay mobile and keep capturing stations to be able to pay for upgrades. Also it's going to take awhile and a few replays to get it just right.

Which is what I do, I have no problem beating Speed Demons. Its just the game wont acknowledge that Ive won and destroyed all the Decepticons.
