A new video interview with the voice of Optimus Prime, Peter Cullen, has appeared on http://www.transformersgame.com. The voice actor talks about doing the voice of the heroic leader in the game for the upcoming Transformers Movie, as well as on the original Transformers show.

"There is an interesting quote that is "Peace is the right of all sentient beings". That was one. "Hold on to your dreams. The world is built on dreams". And I am wondering if perhaps that wasn't one of the reasons why it was so succesful. You know. That kids had something to think outside of the box. That wasn't everything they had seen before".

People who know me, know that "Hang on to your dreams. The future is built on dreams" is a quote that has become my life's motto. It is what I live by. So I had to qoute Cullen (or his version of it) in it! :grin:

Nothing new but it's always nice to see anything having to do with Mr. Cullen. The footage of the game that played while he was talking is looking pretty impressive!

I'm sorry to say, but I wasn't all that impressed with the rendering of the truck mode... I'm hoping that's just a test shot of an incomplete FMV or something...

that was so cooool to hear him use the voice....and the game looks pretty good, prime looks awesome in what seems to be cutscenes....i think i'll be using him the most just because i can finally say i'm prime and its not pretend...well not totally...

I think the rendering shown was of the PS2 version, but Barricade rampaging through the streets was sheer joy

Err, that's supposed to be "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings.", not peace. The Autobots weren't pacifists, they were freedom fighters.

It is for all systems but not pc I dont think on the Nintendo DS it has 2 versions for some reasons Transformers-Autobots and Transformers-Decepticons, also you can use you DS WI-FI abailities to play multiplayer. On the PSP version you can use G1 characters but you have to unlock them 1st. Also the game play is sort of life GTA spiderman 2 and The Hulk-Ultimate Destruction. It is opened ended meaning you can go anywere and destroy anything. But I am going to rent this game 1st if it is good then I will buy it.

Maybe that was the originle quote and they changed it for Prime so people couldt say he stole it.

I'm just glad Cullen's on board with the movie

I can't ever remember hearing Optimus say "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" in the G1 show or movie?

God, I LOVE his voice!

I don't think he ever did. It was just on his tech spec. I believe it was the winner in the "write a line for Optimus Prime" contest held a while back, so Prime will finally say his line about 23 years after it was written for him.

I don't think Megs ever said "peace through tyranny" either. Come to think of it, I don't think any of the characters ever actually said any of their tech spec quotes....
