Transformers Devastation (Platinum Games) - First gameplay from IGN

Does anyone remember a game (for 360 I think) that had you being a robot or something and fighting enemies in the big empty cities like this with a twist being that you could destroy buildings and use them as weapons? this really reminds me of that
 
Looks great. Awesome that they got most of the OG voice-cast. Looking forward to seeing more and playing it.

Who will be the final boss? My bet is on Megatron fusing with Cybertron creating the biggest Transformer there was in a mind blowing fight to rock your socks off. They will make it work, somehow.

Also i´m just glad Platinum is getting work. Scalebound, this, working on Star Fox, Nier 2. They´re doing full games and are becoming the studio where publishers are like "HOW ARE WE GOING TO MAKE THE COMBAT FUN?! Let´s call up Platinum. They know their shit."

More games from Platinum is all i ever wanted.
 
Yeah the level design looks straight outta the 80s cartoons too

As in "who the fuck cares, no one is looking at that building anyway"

Only thing that worries me. Legend of Korra's levels were very poorly designed. Like once you got past the fighting sections, the actual platforming areas (and how you navigated around places)...was really shitty. I understand keeping the backgrounds the way they are if you aren't going there. Fine. Doesn't bother me.

The gameplay actually looks amazing. Looks better than Korra even, especially since they gimped that. Looks awesome how well they are utilizing their transformations and how that really makes fighting seem diverse and crazy. I just hope that once you move past fighting/boss sections, the level design isn't as flimsy as those backdrops.
 
Hopefully this game does well so we can finally get a Platinum Ninja Turtles game.

I wouldn't be ready.

I keep hoping that Activision will eventually realize what they have on their hands and give us a TMNT game that would be more than the middling games we've gotten the last few years. My little cousin loves the new TMNT stuff coming out, but he doesn't have good games to sink his teeth into like I did when I was his age!
 
What in the world is this..

Looks nothing like the combat I've ever seen in Transformers movies/cartoons. High speed combos linking to and from transformations!? Lol.
 
I'm really hoping Decpeticons will be playable in that wave based challenge mode I was reading about.

My excitement for this game knows no bounds. Collector's edition seems unlikely but I'm hoping for one. I want to spend all my money on this game.
 
Yeah, this definitely warrants no worry (unless you really care about the level design).

I thought it was weird seeing the car forms riding on the air, but I forgot about the weirdness when I thought about the possibilities...

Hopefully Activision does indeed given them enough budget so we can have a lot of content too.

I mean... Lord. *_*
 
Looks like Transformers and Bayonetta had a baby. And I am ok with that. I love that it is cell shaded as well. I'm looking forward to it!

It's a platinum game with transformer skin.

I don't like platinum as much as many people here, a little disappointed with the footage.
 
The character models look great, combat appears to be fluid and loads of fun. I want to play it.

My concern - is there really $50 worth of content?
 
The length of the air combos and the transformation attacks during it with the exception of Optimus' truck drop looked really weird. With an aerialbot like Jetfire/Skyfire I'd get it but not quite with the characters shown.

That said, Soundwave was HYPE
 
I was laughing so hard when
hotshot
bumblebee did that aerial rave XX super.

It looked like he did 2 reps of his strong man combo (shout outs to Nova from mvc3) and then canceled into super. Lmmmaaaooo.

The combos look sick! Jesus Christ!!!

This is the part that had me laughing tho. It was like optimus prime couldn't think of anymore ways to hurt that decepticon, so he just turns into a truck and rams himself into him. Lmmaao!
 
Activision has (or last had) the TMNT gaming rights and apparently now the will to let devs like Platinum use IDW comics as source material...I mean...

Hot damn. I know someone from Activision has to be reading this thread... You know what to do: 4-player TMNT action game from Platinum.
 
This game looks so damned good! I like what I've seen so far, I like what I've heard so far.
I would love to see Platinum make a Power Rangers game.
 
Graphically and design wise, it looks amazing.

That said the gameplay is not what I wanted in the least. Transformers are mainly vehicles, yet there is no travel or exploration? And hardly any weapons? Really? in almost every single iteration they have weapons and gun battles, with the major (robot)hand to hand occurring rarely. This is like having a Samurai game, but instead giving them paintball guns. I guess i just want this engine/design in an action adventure game setting, rather than arena battle.
 
I'll most likely buy this on at least three platforms.

I've wanted this game since I was ten years old. What's even cooler is, Sideswipe was my first (and so my most loved) Transformer. I can't believe I'm going to be able to do 50 hit combos with him.
