Game Play:

Transformers: War for Cybertron is a 3rd person shooter that takes place prior to the original Transformers animated series, when the Transformers still lived on the fictional machine planet Cybertron. The game has two distinct campaigns: one for each Transformers faction. The story of the Decepticon campaign is a prelude to the Autobot campaign's story. Both campaigns can be played in single-player or cooperative online multiplayer. Each campaign level features three playable Transformers. If less than three players are present, the game's AI controls the remaining playable characters.

The game will feature Multiplayer.

Yep, I'm lookin' forward to it. There's a bunch of information also up on this game's other thread as well.

Yep, cant wait

Theres a multiplayer demo out on xbox live for those that are interested.

Yeah, i don't know. You'll have to let me know what the multiplayer is like. I'm not to concerned about a transformers deathmatch, although it worked well enough for, Revenge of the fallen. I'm just excited to be able to play a, Transformers game that follows the Gen 1 characters and has absolutely nothing to do with the trash that, Micheal Bay has produced.

Jinxed are you going out of your way to practice your Christopher Walken impression by typing it out on here or is there some other explanation?

For the Demo its Team deathmatch and its pretty good it has the same level up system like Lost Planet. Altho for us Australians we do get lag starts off smooth and then it usually kicks in and think Gears Of Wars and you pretty much got the idea how it plays.

Resurrecting this...

Anyone else playing it? I haven't had a chance to play online, but the campaign is one huge, glorious love letter from Hasbro and High Moon to Transfans everywhere.

Bought it, haven't had the time to crack it open and start playing it. It looks amazing, and plays very well.

😂 what?

I've only played the campaign for about six hours and haven't tried the co-op. So far, the campaign makes for a great rental. There isn't anything in this game that we haven't seen before and the transforming aspect seems to have been neglected, but like, Scythe said, it plays smoothly and looks great. The multiplayer is also fun, but like the main campaign, i'm not sure how long it will be peoples interest after a few plays. As a gen1 transformers fan im quite satisfied. I can't wait to try the co-op

The co-op is really cool. They put in so much fan-wank. For example, P.O.K.E. Alpha. If you know what I'm talkin' about, that's awesome. If ya don't, Punch Of Kill Everything. Pretty nice reference. I also love how they added female bots (fembots?) to the mix. Now the TF fans I know that are female are havin' a blast playing as Slipstream or Arcee. "Spare me this mockery of justice!" When you get to the Kaon prison level, they say this, awesome.

i got this game. so far i've played about an hour of it in 2 days. it's supose to be the best transformers game ever. and so far it is. but that's not saying a lot. I like that it's the prequel story to the '07 flik. so that looks like the part that'll get me into the game the most. graphics are kinda ps 2.5ish. the banter gets real cheesey. I got tired of hearing "hail megatron!" over and over again. I liked smokescreens voice though. (brought back memories) the game seems like it's for teenagers. they should make a rated M tf game sometime.

7/10 so far. may go up/down.

Well they did do that in the G1 cartoon.

Doesn't mean it's not cheesy.

Well is it cheesy to you?.....if you have played it yet.

This game is Great. I really can't put it down. playing this game, feels like playing with my action figures all over again, I'm not sure whether or not that is a good thing, but i'm having a blast. I'm still a little pissed to not see Ultra Magnus. lol
