New 'G1ish' War Within like game in the making

Hope they make a toyline based on these designs. That Prime looks like Animated + G1 + Movie + WW design rolled into one. Looks lovely.

At least a Prime toy has been confirmed (unofficially)

Interesting, I'm not really much of a video gamer though I do like a good intro movie. Still it would take more than that to get me into the game.

Toy's could be interesting, I hope they somehow find a way to give them that gritty look, or capture some of the movie-esque not so cartoony feel, as I worry Hasbro spinof toys of non earthern designs like that would end up with a cartoony Armada-Cybertron look.

Full HD version is now available on youtube for your viewing pleasure -

This should not be removed as it appears to be an official - not leaked, posting. The other youtube video mentioned by Kup has been taken down.

Having re-watched this, it reminds me a lot of the Transformers (Armada) game for the PS2. Even some of the sound effects (if you listen carefully) seem to have been recycled for War for Cybertron. Not surprising really as both are done by Activision. Hopefully it will be just as great.

Edit: Just realised my mistake. Transformers Armada was developed by Atari and not Activision

Looks awesome! Nice cameo by the Big Guy there at the end...

Looks like these people are doing their homework like Bob Forward and Larry DiTillio did for Beast Wars but at the same time throwing in their own unique contribution to the franchise.

So far everything is reading as 'I care about the franchise and making a good game' rather than a soul less cash in atttempt so I am positive.

Cybertron looks great in that clip.

I notice Prime's got a very violent ROTF approach to dealing with the Decepticons though...

I disagree. It seems that he killed a drone and even if he was a 'con it was in the heat of battle not while the Decepticon was down and defenseless like in ROTFL.

Dunno if others have worked this out, but I think we may see more in just over 4 days, 11 hours... as of now.

I was trying to work it out also, but after 30 secs of looking at the symbols, ALL of them shuffled around like a damn slot machine and all ended up in different spots...?

screw that...didnt bother after that...

You would notice that it shuffles around, but if you look, they go back to its original spots.

I'd say this countdown will be for the site becoming fully active. With profiles and other info about the game.
