Figured as much, I hope they include more then Optimus G1 though.

Definitely looks like it. My hope for this game just went up a tad!

It's some sort of crossover between FOC and AOE, the exact details of which we still know next to nothing about.budmaloney wrote:I'm confused. Is this the sequel to FOC? I may have missed the news bit, but why isn't High Moon involved?

On a positive note though, Activision did one hell of a job with the G1 Prime for this game.

it's the same model they used as a reskin in FoC, and it looks horrendous

Do you care?
And about some odd choice to throw in 3 totally different styles.
And that the graphics probably won't be better than Fall Of Cybertron.
But peoples, this is a 'watch the movie-play the game' video game. Don't expect Titanfall, they have a hell of a lot more restrictions and a killer deadline.
I welcome that they don't go for next gen graphics which will result in a terrible framerate and completely unpolished buggy gameplay.
I for one am fine with previous gen graphics as long as it plays as smooth as Fall Of Cybertron and they simply try to make a decent game.
I don't expect Fall Of Cybertron 2, since it's not done by High Moon Studios (are they still alive by the way?) and since it's a movie tie in.
Funny, that AOE Prime looks so out of place in that cybertron area, just as much as the FOC will look out of place in a jungle or earth city

As long as it's fun to play, bring it on!

I wholeheartedly agree with this statement.

I agree with this as well, I'm sure that AoE prime looking out of place and stuff like that will take some getting used to but it should looks like normal after a week of playing it.
I think HMS is still alive but no one knows what they're doing.

If this track record holds out we could be looking at a game that while not better than FoC will be as good. And since I love the hell out of that game more of it with a new story is more than enough for me.

I'm guessing it's true. I don't think that Galvatron is not an important character in the movie since he's being controlled by humans (and he doesn't look evil at all). Either Galvatron will get a mind of his own or 5 and 6 will have different villains. Right now, Lockdown is getting the most attention.
