I was thinking maybe in the game, Activision is allowing/encouraging Cullen to sound more like "old-school" Prime, not the way he did in the movies. That or they're cleaning it up w/ computers to make him sound younger again. Either way, that's definitely Cullen.

not THIS is what im talking about !

ok i know its only a trailer and as others have posted it'll really come down to game play, we all remember how cool the first movie game looked before turning out to be a repetitive snorefest.

but the homages to the G1 era are fantastic.

ratchet looks great and if theres dismemberment going on its very easy to fit in a mission for him where he has to either patch up some bots in the field or scrounge for parts for the injured.

bumblebee looked good too. ya really got the sense that he was a plucky little dude, outmatched, but giving as good as he gets. in fact the minute i saw him my first though was "how cool would it be to has a skin so he can be cliffjumper "

i agree that omegas action seemed hard core but TBH i LOVE the idea of an teen plus game for TF so ive no problem with that and trpticons entrances WAS cool

interesting to see they used the idea bay had with the meteors, but still what a bad ass intro.

i cant wait to get the chance to play as him or omega. im hoping the reason devestator wasnt used is that the guys behind the game are so confident in it that they intend to introduce combiners in the sequel to this one !

anyway i guess what im trying to say is this trailer got me pumped and it really does seem that these lads get what TF is all about and look to be giving us a great game. if the gameplay meets the hype thisll be the game that gets me to buy a PS3 !

I would have pictured David Kaye as this Optimus. Mr. Cullen is awesome but i just see Kaye in this reincarnation.

Now that was amazing! Peter Cullen fits well I think, and I love Bumblebee's design! But what was the giant Decepticon thing? Ravage? Devastator? I thought it was some kind of Unicron at first....
forgive me if it's obvious, but I'm not very G1 schooled, so I don't recognize it.

This was awesome but Megatron's voice doesn't really fit, but you can hear the actor tries as a few words seem to be spot on.

is this a game that will be available for all the next gen systems? Or does this mean I may finally have to buy a ps3 or 360?

Trailer makes it look almost fun. Interesting but sad way to get Autobots to fly though (creating a ramp)...

Tue Jan 12, 2010 5:24 pm

Holy slag! I think that IS Omega Supreme! Trypticon looks so freakin' awesome and so does BB! :grin:

Well I guess G4 was wrong on who the decepticon boss was going to be it isn't the Constructicons unstead high moon decided to go with Trypticon which is cool. I like that idea it is kind of like the old marvel what if comics so get to see what if omega supreme took on Trypticon. Also the trailer was really cool can't wait for the game this one and Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 seem to be the two must have summer games.

If you are asking if it is on the Wii. I highly doubt it.

That was the Decepticon baseformer Trypticon. See here for all of his awesomeness. http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Trypticon_(G1)

It's confirmed for NDS, PC, PS3, X360 and Wii. Though the 'proper' default version is PC, PS3 and X360 only. The Wii and NDS will get their own 'special' versions.

What if the 'ramp' was helping him? It was transforming as he raced over it. And there's only one Autobot big enough to provide city-like transforming structures like that. :-B

(Might be reading a bit too much into that one, though!)

Although that's my first thought as well, it just might be one of the Guardian robots considering its colour-scheme.

I simply assume that their take on Cybertron is it everything has the ability to transform to best suit the situation.

I noticed that too! It sounds like a regular guy, with a deep voice. I want Megatron to be, "rip your heart out of your ass" evil! And have the voice to fit!
