Interesting, what's that thing next to Ironhide?

by **ACIDSTORM** » Thu Feb 05, 2009 3:50 pm

looks quite good with the graphics looking a little better than the last game but wouldn't be able to tell properly without seeing a longer version
one thing i did notice was sideswipe (or barricade i couldn't tell which) and i was wondering if that turret type thing was a transforming "weapon"

Nice. The PSP better not get screwed over again. Lets also hope that if theres a collectors edition its on more than one console and actually has some useful extras. So is this up for preorder yet?

looks good... not TOO impressed with the graphics, but they're as good or better than the first so it's all good... did anyone check out the pics they have for the game? There're two different drone/possible new characters(perhaps game only) fighting bumblebee... also next to the vid is an interesting description:

The Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen video game lets gamers step into the shoes of the Autobots or Decepticons, select any available mission and pick from the largest, most diverse range of playable Transformers – each with their own distinct abilities and weaponry. Set in unique environment... (cuts off and can't find more)

so it seems like my(and a lot of other peoples') prayers from the first game are being answered in that you can pick your character this time instead of being stuck with a certain bot for each level. Here's hoping it turns out to be the game the first one shoulda been. :grin:

Lots more drones/enemies to fight in this game!

I just realized, I never did beat the first one. #-o

I never won the decepticon levels, I've been too hooked on DBZ games.

(rus to PS2)

score...

Loved the transition of the Decepticon Logo transition into The Fallen's face.

It looks good, but lets see if it *is* good. I have my doubts. While the original game was fun, it wasn't a must own. (which is why I don't have it in my collection.)

I do wonder though, will that voice over open the movie like the first one? Because it would be awesome, and it fits.

I suppose it's too much to hope that they revived the mechanics of the old Armada game for this?

Interesting indeed, I like! Hopefully it will be much better than the first Transformers Movie game.

Don't mention it.

If I get this game, I should actually finish it this time.

I guess so, I mean why would you do that being the Armada was the best TF game done to date. So instead they just rip off a tired GTA style gameplay, make sense to me :roll:

Don't get me wrong, the first game was enjoyable, but it was no PS 2 Armada. As far as the ROTF game, I'll get it, stomp through it like I did the first, and get all the achievements I can.

I hope they'd allow transformation in midair this time. It was lame in the first game that I had to wait till I land on my feet before switching over to alt mode.

Did that video just confirm that Blackout is back. I don't remember hearing that before.

by **cor2879** » Fri Feb 06, 2009 6:50 am

I was an "early adopter" of the first game and will be holding off on this one until I read some reviews or until it hits the $20 bin (didn't take long for the first one to get there...). The first one seemed like all the effort was put into making the first few levels enjoyable, with the remaining ones tacked on just because. In the final analysis, I found the game to be shallow and really lacking an sort of replayability once the story arcs for both sides were completed.

The best Transformers game to date? Transformers G1 Awakening by GLU Mobile. Yes a little cell phone game is better than any other TF game made. I wish they'd do an Xbox Live Arcade version because it would rock.

lets be brutally honest.

this could suck balls and were STILL gonna buy it

. that said it does indeed look better than the last game which ,while pretty, was boring as feck.

i agree with the other poster that while flawed in places the armada game has been the most fun to date.

hopefully they'll learn the lessons of the last game that ya need more that just pretty graphics. being able to play ANY character would be a nice start. i cant believe you couldnt play brawl in the last one !

anyway getting back to the trailer is it just me or does peters voice always sound like he's got a cold in these things? must be inferior dubbers or something as he always sounds spot on elsewhere. on whats in it its nice to see the selection of areanas are as well deveoped as last time and for what its worth i think that weapons platform was deployed by ironhide to act like a sentry. its a similar gimmick to what ive seen in an old PS2 game called "rogue trooper" ages back.

its a hell of a lot of fun so hopefully theyve done something similar for all the OTHER characters too to help differentiate them from each other.

That'd be awesom, I still play Armada every now and then, its the best. You could fight Devastator like the tidal wave level in Armada

The first game was all sorts of horrible.

Unless they get rid of the retarded time trials....and the magic pedestrians, and the fact that a palm tree is more powerful than alien weaponry, and the crappy hype about "fully destructible stuff" or the crappy hype "it makes you feel like you're a large robot walking around a city, because windows blow out and everything explodes as you get within a mile of it"

God I hated the first game.

I mean, is it really that hard to make a good Transformers game? Hell it's been done for years(without the Transforming part) in Armored Core.

by **Newtilator** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:28 am

Why has no-one pionted out what appears to be Blackout hovering over a lushiously rendered aircraft carrier?
Will this game contain prequel elements?
Is that the Carrier from the teaser?
Hmm.
The last Ds game was fab, its only shortcoming was the transformations not being droolworthy. I bought the PS3 one.
I kinda regret that after playing my friends ds one.

Is it just me or is Peter sounding a little like he's got a cold or something? Especially when he says "I am Optimus Prime..."

(Yes, I am aware that I have just done something heretical...)
