Methinks they've overlooked the Japanese PS2 G1 game that had 38 playable G1 characters (19 Autobots and 19 Decepticons).

It sucked, yeah, but it still counts as a G1 game (one that's even based on the cartoon's continuity at that).

Just five more days.

Grimlock trailer.

Grimlock sure sounds smarter in this one. Like he's intelligent enough for speaking properly but is intentionally trying to speak like a caveman but not with much effort, instead of naturally sounding dumb and dim like he did in the G1 cartoon. It gives me more of a feeling like his Marvel Comics version when that Grimlock decided to start speaking dumber on purpose, only this time without the bombastic aggression Marvel Grimlock felt towards everyone else.

And he waddles in dino mode. It's cute.

With only a couple of days left to the release of the Activision/Platinum Games Transformers: Devastation game, the official Facebook page has been uploading slews of screenshots and concept art. From the latter, cassettes such as Ravage and Laserbeak have made an appearance (mirrored below!), and the screenshots all lead to the new trailer featuring Grimlock himself, in all his G1 glory, Gregg Berger included - check it all out below!

Again, I know it's Gregg Berger, but it sounds so much like Hal Rayle's Snarl to me.

Maybe I haven't heard enough modern Gregg Berger to tell.

Look up FoC Grimlock. That is Gregg Berger's voice, and it actually sounds very badass

I'm starting to see ads for the game on different websites. You know, like IGN normally does for COD every year, where they make the entire outline of the site one big ad for the game, with a bunch of smaller ads for the same game inside of the giant one.

Countdown:

At this time in 24 hours, I'll be waiting in line at my local Gamestop to pick up the game. I may just bring my Combiner Wars Optimus figure to wait in line with me. I can't wait.

You know, there was something I was going to say, but I think it'd be funnier if you go and find out for yourself.

Oh, I know. I'm literally planning on waiting all night until the store opens in the morning. I've even scoped out the spot, and I know where I'm going to be sitting, sleeping, and everything. I'll even vlog my journey of waiting at the door for 10 hours, just so I'll be the first in line. I've never done it before, and I don't have anything better to do.

It'll be cute when you get picked up for loitering. Also, that you think there's going to be a line for this game.

They won't care at 12 in the morning when there's no one there for me to bother. And even if there is no line, at least I'll be able to exercise my loyalty to the Transformers brand.

Don't I know it! There's so many ways this can end for him, and all of them make me laugh.

HAHA! We'll see. There's only one way this ends. And that's me walking out of that store with THE game of the generation in hand.

It's cute that you think this is going to be the "game of the generation." Not surprising, mind you, given that you have incredibly low standards, especially with anything related to Transformers.

Or you're getting No Man's Sky early.

The official Facebook page for Transformers Devastation have been counting down to the game's release, and added some more concept art as they went along! Mirrored below for your convenience are the Battlecharger drones, Shockwave and latest addition Soundwave in their sketch format. Are you ready for Devastation?

Do my eyes deceive me? It appears the folks working on this game were privy to Masterpiece Shockwave before the rest of us!

*Edit* - Never mind... I just had a closer look at the animation model

They really need to remember Reflector and Buzzsaw more

So true I have been blowing the Reflector horn for so long now.
The character needs only a slight update. He needs to be a minion
Of Soundwave (he fits into the spy network perfectly) and he
needs to combine in vehicle and robot mode. Essentially he becomes
a 3 robot combiner, he would then be about as tall as Soundwave in this mode.

An update for alternate mode as a spy satellite would be perfect based on his tech specs.

I'm so glad there's another Reflector fan out there LOL.

I loved the TF Animated design for Reflector.

My personal preference for him is no Viewfinder, Spectro & Spyglass just Reflector with two hard light 'reflections' of himself (but that's me)

From a game perspective he'd be a great end level boss making the player fight through hordes of reflections until you get to the main bot(con) in the middle. As a side challenge he could be a survival mode doing the same thing just forever ha ha ha.

His basic design/reflections would've been great monoformer early level baddies..oh well
