Transformers: Devastation (Platinum Games) - SDCC trailer

Please dont generic-phone in the music on this game.

Please go full Revengeance and get DiCola or similar in with some phased build up tracks and go full fucking Transformers Movie spectacle on the sound.

I wonder if it's possible to get the Lion 86 movie theme? Would rock even just as the song for the game credits.
 
^Megatron's trying to Cyberform Earth into a planet more hospitable for Cybertronians.
Optimus won't have any of Megatron's dumb shit.

Let's not get crazy now, WFC and FOC were excellent games.

Agreed, if you wanted a single player shooting game where you play as Transformers, those are the games to go for.
 
As a fan of G1 and War Within, art style looks so damn good here. Its just too bad the shiny texture don't shift with the camera movements/character animations.. It's just static and only a tiny bit of shadow detail that isn't, unlike the cartoons.
 
I was never a big Transformers fan as a kid, but goddamn this looks so fun. It's really carrying those Revengeance vibes.
 
Millions of young children would've died from heart attacks in their homes in front of their televisions in the '80s had this released back then. Amazing look. I want Tranzor-Z and Voltron from Platinum now.

I've finally got my answer for all those "Send one game back to the past" threads!

I'm not a Transformers fan, but this game looks like it's using Platinum's skills to the fullest. Definitely interested! I think the E3 gameplay was a better sell than this trailer, though.

I can imagine ROBOTS IN DISGUISE kicking in would be a satisfactory new RULES OF NATURE.
 
That looks so good!

I hope Jamie Christopherson composes the music for this one as well, his work in Metal Gear Rising was perfect for the game and I think it would fit for this one as well.

Oh god... I just realized what if they have Jamie Christopherson cover Robots in Disguise and You Got the Touch... I would buy that OST so hard.
 
okay, I may just buy the PS3 version to play this (I want a physical to play, but I have no PS4), looks really fun...which is all I can ever ask for.
 
I just hope the response isn't "but bumblebee doesn't look like that! Why isn't he a camero?"

Is he a VW Beetle in this? It doesn't appear to look like one.

I understand there he's had other car forms throughout the decades, but I've always known him as a Beetle.
 
But the art-style was so busy and blocky though.
The plot & music was nice, gameplay too but when the very thing you are looking at turns you off, how can you help that?

At the time all we had was Michael Bay TF design and games. The High Moon designs were refreshing in comparison.

I'll actually agree that the War for Cybertron had a bit of a messy art that made it hard to distinguish between the environment and characters. I think this was very improved for the second game though.

As for the art-style in itself, after suffering Micheal Bayformers' ugly insect like appearances, I think High Moon made a great effort of joining the old G1 designs with some modern ideas. Even got two Optimus Prime figures at the office from War and Fall of Cybertron.
 
These days I very rarely say "Day 1" or have any intention to "buy the fuck" out of something, but in this instance Day 1, and I am going to buy the fuck out of this game!

I'll agree that War For Cybertron is ugly but Fall of Cybertron doesn't look nearly as bad even if it isn't G1 designs.

Everybody buy this so we can get Thundercats next, kay?
I'd actually be down for this. I know I'm in on this game day 1
 
It looks like gen 1 cartoons videogame! Oh god. I am going to love this while my nephews will ask why they look so different from the movies and other transformer games. Holy shit Platinum delivers!
