Any bonuses for preorders? It's usually a decider for me as to whether I go through EB or JB

early days i know but that trailer didn't show a whole lot. looks like a button mashing beat em up and so far only 1 location which doesn't look that amazing. have to wait and see i guess!

I agree, it doesn't look overly engaging at this point. hopefully it doesn't become vapourware like transformers universe.

Seeing lots of complaints about no multiplayer on other sites. For me that's the best news I could have heard as it means they will be focusing on making the single player experience as good as possible, and that's all I really care about.

I really like the single player campaigns that have a good story, I get a feeling there won't be a whole lot of story in this. perhaps Valve should have a crack at a transformers licenced game, the only problem would be the wait until it gets released in 5 to 10 years...

To be honest, the vibe I get is I wouldn't expect DLC with it, though no doubt it will be cheaper to get from JB than EB, and probably cheaper to order from overseas.

There is no JB in my town, but they charge 99c delivery so if no DLC content might be the way to go

This looks great.

Constructicons using their vehicle attack modes!

The more I watch of the video the more keen I am to play this.

The best way to go if your into disk is look at what Big W and Kmart are charging before you pick up your preorder at EB Games and then price match. I wish I could do that for digital, but hey, Steam taught me to hate disk after they fixed the issues in the HL2 era and turned it into a great service.

Possible spoilers from interview:


Loving the fact a lot of your enemies are proper G1 Decepticons! Soundwave with Ravage & Laserbeak, the Constructicons, the Insecticons (with Shrapnel using lightning!) etc. Also the Autobots seem to have their traditional weapons such as Sideswipe having a flamethrower (like his tech specs) and Optimus having an energon axe (like the cartoon).

Shaping up to look quite cool!

so, let me see if i've got this
you run around, bash stuff & can only transform when you're dishing out a combo? sounds like fun for about 3 minutes.
