Transformers Fall of Cybertron Demo - E3 2012

So we see Metroplex shoulderblocking a giant tower halfway down, then finishing it off with a titanic pimpslap

And we see Starscream sneaking up on a guy, kicking him in the ball-bearings from from behind, and shoving a facehugger bomb on his head.

I love this game.

Seriously, I can't decide what game I want to preorder first; this or Halo 4. I could order the Limited Edition of Halo 4 for about $100 (comes with camo-pattern for your Spartan IV and your Assault Rifle, an exclusive in-game emblem, and lots more) or get this for $60 for the awesome G1 Bonus Pack. Tough choices, tough choices...

That Starscream looked amazing. I liked that second sneak attack too. Question though. Why does it seem that Starscream is attacking Dcons? We'll find out when we get the game. I'm stoked

That footage looks SWEET! If only I could afford any of the games and systems....

•The story was developed in association with Hasbro and is cannon, no association with the films

Shouldn't that read, "and is canon"? A "cannon" is a weapon (eg. a Howitzer), where "canon" is an original source (eg. a novel). I really hate to nitpick.

Wolf-Spider

Oh the many choices in Starscream's level,Time to raise some hell!!!

Anyone else notice how many weapons there are in the Teletran-Store?? I cannot WAIT to try out each new weapon.

Until today,I almost totally forgot that Jazz and Cliffjumper are playable characters. I've just been so focused on Grimlock & the Dinobots,Optimus,Metroplex,and Bruticus

Sneaking looks very cool, hopefully you can also sneak attack in Multiplayer.

Starscream's abilities are completely swapped, now he has Dash and Cloak. How are they going to do that? They are both time-loading abilities in WFC, not micro energon cubes.

The new Optimus looks great, I love it when there are fellow bots running around the battlefield.

Seriously hope they make a big fat expensive collector's edition for me to buy.

Courtesy of GameTrailers.com we have even more Transformers: Fall of Cybertron footage. The first clip focuses on Vortex, while the second gives us a look at everyone's favorite space T-Rex, Grimlock. The clips are embedded below.

This game looks way more action packed than the first game, which was loaded with action.

Plus Slag saying "Excuse me" after knocking the door down in top of Kickback.

I do have to admit, the Original Movie reference was Awesome. I loved the first Game, gonna go nuts over this one. Just waiting for them to release a DL Demo to keep us occupied.

Gotta love Slug's "Excuse me."

I like the way Onslaught, Blast Off, and Vortex were voiced. Slag going "excuse me" was a classic homage to the original 80's movie, when the Dinobots interrupted the trial on Quintessa. I seriously like the way this game is looking, but I'm still not sure whether I want to preorder this first or Halo 4...

Watching the Grimlock clip makes me realize that the Insecticon I was thinking was Chop shop in the game was really Sharpshot. Guess all that background noise at the convention drowned out the pronunciation of his name.

Actually its Kickback.

Grimlock and Shockwave call the guy by name in the game. Whoever they were talking to, it wasn't Kickback.

From looks of the character, Sharpshot is the new name for Shrapnel, just as "Hardshell" is for Bombshell.

I know this. All I'm saying that the Insecticon both Shocky and Grimmy were talking to wasn't referred to in-game as Kickback, so must have been Sharpshot, in spite of us seeing Kickback in the same room in this gameplay. Maybe both Kickback nd sharpshot are seen in this level together in different part of this room, or something.

definatly when i saw door drop ontop of that insecticon i was thinking of that scene i be dissapointed if they ddiint have slag walk in to say excuse me right after that event looking forward to see if there is any more movie easter eggs in this gaem

Awesome. I wish the game would be released now.

I was looking at the part of Grimlock's gameplay where Slag (he's Slag to me, even if his official name is "Slug") breaks in. Hard to tell who that Insecticon is, but the head makes me think ILL-Star may be right. The shape of the head is pretty close to Kickback's, even if his face isn't. Just have to play the game to find out.

The Insecticon Slug knocks the door over is Kickback.



The Insecticon I said Shockwave and Grimlock spoke to was probably a different guy in another area of the level.

Maybe all three named-Insecticons serve as bosses in each arena that Grimlock needs to free another Dinobot from. Sharpshot may be Snarl's captor, Slug could be Kickback's, and Harshell could be Sludge's (Swoop seemed to get free on his own, unless we're missing something).
