I just hope they don't mess up the gameplay. Doesn't matter what it looks like if the controls are worse than Wheelie singing the Macarena.

Don't worry. From what I've seen, it's quite similar to THe Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, which was one of the best liscenced franchise games ever.

Those better not be fireballs emerging from the smokestacks...

Man, those humans sure evacuated the city quickly. The place is deserted. If it weren't for the lights on in the buildings a few parked cars, I wouldn't even know anyone was around.

They probably haven't rendered the humans yet.

Or should I say: Homo Squishius.

Not to nitpick, but those wheels on Prime's truck in the first pic look awfully thin.

It looks like the truck would just collapse under it's own weight...

EDIT: Damn, double post, sorry

Now I need to buy a PS3. My PS2 is dead, & I don't really want the Wii. I'm not too keen on Xbox 360, but I'll have to buy something to play this badass game on!!

WOW! I really like the screenshot of Prime holding the traffic lights about to swat some pesky drones! I hope he says some cheesy line like
"Red light means STOP!!* right before he swings!!

That would be awesome...

The fact that the game developers used the same models (wireframes or something) as in the movie tells me that these bots will look fantastic on the big screen.

I dont think its very nice of Prime to use Signal Lancer as a weapon though!

To everyone that has played Kingdom Hearts, did anyone first take the traffic light post as a keyblade at first glance? XD

Can't wait to get this game. I own all 3 Next Gens, so I can get the game for all 3 if I chose to.

I keep hoping and praying this game will be awesome, but I still cringe at the thought of how awful a review X-Play could give this.

For all the "detail" they put onto Prime, they sure like hiding it behind smoke and dust plumes.

Still nothing overly impressive with any of the screenshots, it looks nice, but not great.

Where is that? There's smoke and dust in one picture, and even then, it's not covering him up.

Looks good but I still don't think you will be killing humans. And I don't like the idea of those bots coming down from a sky. But in any case, the game looks promising.

Posted by Leonardo on May 10th, 2007 @ 7:51am CDT

I hope that they make the distinction between Decepticons in alt.mode and civilian vehicles kind of blurry, so that if you're walking down the street anything could be an enemy. I can imagine being surprised by a seemingly normal vehicle transforming and attacking.

Are you suprised? Game Companies have been screwing Europe over for decades now.

I'm really not shocked in the least.
