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

Exactly. Or you could have multiple members collectively referred to as the Reflector Corps., which turn into surveillance vans, news vans, UAV drones, news helicopters, etc.

I was really laughing because of the conversation, not because of his situation. To me that is great!

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.
I am smirking right now. This is too great!!
Don't I know it! There's so many ways this can end for him, and all of them make me laugh.

You can use Megatron's shotgun from DOTM. I hope there are more movie weapons in the game. That would be great.

I played this game all night last night. I had low expectations for it but I can't believe how much fun I had. I was going to stop to watch walking dead and decided to play challenge mode. Fight the constructicons!!! Played as wheeljack. It was so hard! And finally beat all 6 and of course here comes devastator with full health. There's a rpg side to the weapons and skill bonuses to make your character better so probably easier down the road, I had just beat chapter 1. Played on the 360 looks really good for a 360 game compared to next gen. Is it a buy idk... at full price idk.. but definitely worth getting at some point

I just uploaded a fanmade trailer to my You Tube page, but Platinum just uploaded an official one. Yay. Probably the last real new trailer for the game. Forever.

That looked amazing, Megs in the back of Longhaul, doing something with his cannon other than clubbing another bot or missing a shot...... Tank Megatron needs to be the next masterpiece Megatron figure!

Now do I stop reading this thread to avoid spoilers, or do I risk it to continue reading the Shadowman versus SlyTF1 pillow fight? This is a tough call.

A full day before it came out. Sure.

Keep reading. The pillow fight is pretty funny. funny as hell even. I'm with Slytf1's side here. we got some general enthusiasm and it's cool to see people use that enthusiasm. Plus it's funny (did I say that already?)

There are plenty of people who have already uploaded entire playthroughs on You Tube. It isn't that far fetched.

I think most of us are with Sly in our enthusiasm for this game. It's Platinum + Transformers. There's no way it's not going to be bananas, which is exactly why I don't want it ruined for me either. I can't get mad seeing spoilers in a thread about a video game once it's out. But then again, you are totally on the nose about their arguments.

I'm so disappointed. It comes out tomorrow, and it's not my payday. Medical leave is a kick in the butt.
I like the way it looks I really do. I'll save how I feel about it after I have a few hours of game play down.

I wonder how Sly's loite...er, "waiting in line" is going. Did he bring snacks? A chair? Maybe he's in county jail already?

I've just played a little so far, but it's a batch of nostalgic awesomeness for me. I would have sunk a thousand quarters into this game as a kid.
I just don't get why it's not co-op.
Beyond that, it's fun.
