We all know the Tranformers Movie Video Game is to be released on all platforms this week on Tuesday (6/26/07).

So which stores have the best incentives for picking up the games? I was just flipping through the local newspaper advertisements and here's what I saw.

-Do you like Best Buy's free Legends Figure offer?
-Or do you prefer to take advantage of the Toys 'R' Us sale on DS games (Buy 2 get 1 free)?
-Maybe you want the access to the Robovision unlockable skins information that Target is offering in their games?
-Would you prefer Circuit City's $19.99 sale on the new DS versions (EDIT: K-Mart also offers the DS versions at this price)?
-Maybe you don't want to wait until Tuesday for the DS versions in which time, according to advertisements, you could go to Meijer, or Gamestop.

So the question to be answered, when and where will you get your movie game from? And how many different console versions will you own?

Oh and are you an AUTOBOT or a DECEPTICON? Enjoy!

I'm up in Canada so I don't know what deals apply but I'll probably just buy from where ever's cheapest.

i preordered the cybertron edition from EB....according to this site i guess i'm getting it tomorrow instead of tuesday but...i'm in canada so its probably still tuesday..lol

oh and i'm not getting any other versions. i'm not a portable fan so i dont own any of those players and well the PS2 version is the same as 360 aside from graphics so buying that would be pointless lol

oh and i love the new look of the site..cool

Its not out in Europe until July 20th due to the release of the film being the 27th of July(whoever decided to release the movie on the same day as the Simpsons needs to be fired) in the UK and Ireland.

I'll be going to Target, it's close to work and I can get my lunch for the next two weeks at the same time.

Lets see...i was planning on getting it at Best Buy for my Wii until i saw the ad that it wont be available till Wed after 2...so Best Buy can suck my balls. Target most likely wont get it till a week after the official release date, so they can suck my balls. Im gonna make a few calls to see who actually DOES get it on tues, perhaps Toys R Us will come thru?

I was happy that this tues is my day off and the Transformers game is SUPPOSED to be out! :-x

I reserved mine at Gamestop about a month ago. Cybertron edition, baby!

Posted by bobpiecheese on June 25th, 2007 @ 4:10am CDT

I think I'll take the easy way. I'll wait 'till I'm seeing the movie (July 8th), then buy the X360 version with my leftover money from buying the toys that I want. I'll have to scab some cash from my brother AND father, but they want the game too so I don't have to pay them back. Real win-win situation!

Excuse me if I've missed something but has anyone found the Cybertron Edition for 360 anywhere to pre-order in the UK?
I've been checking the usual suspects since I first heard of it way back but have never seen a listing, only for the regular 360 version.
Did they all get snapped up in the blink of an eye or something?
Thanks.

Nowhere is offering the Cybertron version here in Ireland as of yet either, even Gamestop who have it in the states. hopefully when the promotional stuff arrives in about 2 weeks we'll know more.

Does anyone know why the PC version is only $20???

I hope they dont retard the PC port like they did with Spiderman. That would suck much crap!

I have it but im at work so I haven't played it yet.
If anyone buys the cybetron edition for the 360 and want achivement points don't use the code it gives an in game message that that says that ACHIEVMENT POINTS can no longer be earned.

im not sure about the skin codes yet

My mom said she get me either the DS version or PS2. I kinda interested in it. I'm not sure. It doesn't to me where I get if, I decide to get it. Promotions like at Target and Best Buy don't interest me.

I pre-ordered my PS2 game at Gamecrazy. I got a TF Classics Grimlock action figure with it. What funnage.

I did get the DS Decepticon version. It's fun, but the free play leaves something to be desired. It is fun to be able to scan and choose different vehicle modes.

Right now I'm frustrated on a part where I am playing Blackout, because I have to take out communication and then scan buildings for info on the allspark and Megatron, but I take repeated poundings that just whoop me...! Need to try harder I guess.

It was fun chasing Bumblebee as Barricade, and they kicking the crap out of him for information!!! :MAD:
