It is only the game ntro - not actuall in game graphics...

is this game available for the x-box and playstation market only? I imagine it won't be winging it's way to me for the pc.

Impactor returns 2.0 · Post by **Impactor returns 2.0** » Wed Jun 20, 2007 7:02 pm

If its on the xbox and PS u can pretty much bet on a PC port.

<3Starscream · Post by **<3Starscream** » Wed Jun 20, 2007 7:02 pm

Yeah, I understand the way that works.
Lure you in with beautiful intro graphics and give you crap when you play the game -.-

Hopefully this'll be just a tad different.
And I've only seen it for Xbox 360 and PS whatever...maybe I just don't look hard enough though.

edit: Found it for everything except PC. I'm sure they'll get one out though.

the in game graphics are pretty good but obviously not as good as a cinematic render, they never will be.

there should be some in game video on that GT link i posted.

<3Starscream · Post by **<3Starscream** » Wed Jun 20, 2007 7:22 pm

Ah, yes...yes.
I see.

Still looks gorgeous. Can't wait to play it on my new TV.
Yay for grad presents.

_Derek_ · Post by **_Derek_** » Wed Jun 20, 2007 7:49 pm

still a slick piece of animation, nevermind how the game turns out.

Hmmm. What next-gen system do I want to buy to play this on?

<3Starscream · Post by **<3Starscream** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 2:21 am

Only...5 more days..
I think.

I'll have to check with my friend that works at GameStop.
The website says 25th..hmmm.
Either way, I'm excited.

pretty sure iw ill be getting this for the 360...

Impactor returns 2.0 · Post by **Impactor returns 2.0** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 9:42 am

yep, 360 version, obviously, like the PS3 it boasts the best visuals but unlike the PS3 version it has all the online stuff to unlock, and download.
i wouldnt be surprised if at some point some old G1 TF turn up to download, actually im going to pin alot of cash on that bet, and say i belive even Galvatron will turn up at some point, i base this all on hear of course... but Im right.

Anyhows, if the online mode works like crackdowns MP online mode, then i hope to be teaming up with a few 360 owners out there to beat each other up or trash some decepticons/autobots.

roll out! - how sad...

If it's half as much fun as the Atari Armada game it will be worth messing with

Impactor returns 2.0 · Post by **Impactor returns 2.0** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 9:49 am

TF evo.

C64

PS2

Next Gen, 360/PS3

Thats quite a jump in visual clarity!

Post by **Kaylee** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 10:46 am

It does represent 20 years in 3 sequences tho

Impactor returns 2.0 · Post by **Impactor returns 2.0** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 10:55 am

about the same age as the TF franchise!.

I was trying to find a 16bit version to include but i dont think there were any 16bit TF games?

Post by **Kaylee** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 11:16 am

Not AFAIK no

EDIT- I tell a lie, I'm sure there was a BW game in the late 90s, Japanese only, playstation 1 iirc?

<3Starscream · Post by **<3Starscream** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 4:49 pm

Wow, that's a pretty amazing jump.
I still need to get that Armada game..

@the trailer (sorry first chance I've had to watch it) looks pretty tasty indeed, my only gripe is I have a hard time telling the robots apart

I can pick out Prime, Megsy and Bumblebee but haven't a clue who the others are (I'm guessing the jet is Screamer?).

Dylan · Post by **Dylan** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 10:14 am

I always felt that G1 was so strong because it featured clear colorschemes. This movie seems to be about grey robots most of all.

_Derek_ · Post by **_Derek_** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 10:21 am

very true, they're all quite samey. But it just might mean it'll take some getting used to.

<3Starscream · Post by **<3Starscream** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 3:39 pm

I can tell most of them apart by now.
I have a tendancy to visit the website very often.

And yes the Screamer is the jet. He's also the one with the upside down triangle torso. I think he's pretty easy to tell, but that's just coming from someone like me that's a Starscream freak.

I have to agree, one of my main gripes with the designs used in the new movie were not that they looked different from what we knew and loved from the past but that the robots are very indistinct, confusing and messy. I understand that they might represent a TF robot better but the designs are to complex to be easy on the eye.

I got the game today. (for 360)
And I've played almost the entire Decepticons game through.
I love it. It's actually a standable difficulty, not too hard and not so easy you can blow through the entire game 100% complete in one day...unless you really want it that bad.

The only thing that is frustrating me is the Blackout v. Ironhide boss fight.
Good lord that Autobot is difficult to beat.
Bumblebee and Jazz? No sweat...Ironhide makes me want to throw my controller at the tv.

The graphics, like everyone has realized are amazing. I think (just seeing the Decepticons side of the fighting) that Starscream looks the best. Not being biased or anything, Starscream looks brilliant and Blackout comes next. I haven't played with Megs yet, so I can't really add him into the equation, but he's next.

Gameplay is excellent, the camera frustrates me sometimes, but it frustrates me in every game I play. And it's true, you can just about pick up everything and destroy everything. A lot of the Decepticon missions have to do with destroying almost everything in sight.

To sum it up, I think it's worth the over 60 bucks I spent on it. Almost putting me at 20 bucks in my bank account.
