I want to see some of Grimlock, and I want to see him kick butt.
 
Looks solid! Can't wait to give it a play, love Gen 1 transformers, never expected to see Platinum game based on it, but seems nothing is off limits!
 
This is the crossing of what my actual childhood wants and what my current self wants. Thank you based Platinum.

Also the amount of W101 hatred in here is disappointing.
 
Looks much better than I thought it would.

This E3 was amazing for a Platinum fan. They are working on really interesting projects.
 
It pains me High Moon didn't get this much attention for their two games. they were extremely respectful and referenced the original show in great ways. that being said, I will still have this day one.

Andy Schmidt, who has written the IDW comic series and also worked on High Moon’s Transformers games, is creating the story for Devastation.

In short, Transformers: Devastation takes place at a time when the Earth is forcefully being changed into the new Cybertron. The Autobots have no clue why, but the Decepticons do, and they’ve infiltrated an ancient ship hidden deep in the planet. And thus the adventure begins.
 
Holy shit, who owns the TMNT license currently? Somebody get Platinum on that.

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...


In any case, this Transformers game does look really slick. Excited to see more levels/combat arenas.
 
It looks a hell of a lot better than in the reveal, honestly. I still think it will be more in the Legend of Korra end than in the Bayonetta end of my personal rating of Platinum titles, but I'll definitely pick it up on PC at some point!
 
Love how the game looks and handles, but I hope it's more than just an arena brawler type of deal. Either way I'm probably not walking away from this.
 
A super-slick gen 1 Transformers title with Platinum Games combat and original voice actors? I think my 10 year-old self just topped Ahnold's scream from "Predator." This looks incredible. The most balls-out crazy fun-looking game this side of Just Cause 3, and using a great rendition of one of my most cherished IPs to boot.

For everyone who hasn't watched the old cartoon lately, I don't think they've aged all that well. The action in particular is generally slow. I think this does for aesthetics what most remakes try to do - get it to look as cool now as your mind remembers it being.

Too bad it's not coming to Wii U, but I'll probably get it on PC.


Bumblebee is fucking Bayonetta

That's an image I didn't need. Sounds extremely uncomfortable.
 
This looks awesome as fuck! Like how many times better are these old designs compared to Bayformers!

I'd say majority of TF redesigns are far better than Bayformers :P
Heck the TF Prime cartoon's designs is if you take the Bayformer designs and smooth out all the edges.
 
Combat looks slick as hell but the arena style levels are boring, I hope they are mostly place holders for something better.
 
I may be that guy but I dont like the fact that my G1 transformers are brawling each other in close combat.

G1 was all about shooting and beam rifles :(
Yeah, they had static shots of the Autobots all lined up on one side, Decepticons on the other, with lasers blinking on the screen and nobody hitting anything. I'm not sure that would make a great game TBH.
 
I have 0 familiarity and therefore nostalgia for the Transformers cartoons, but this looks really really fun. And gorgeous too.
 
That looks really fun. Curious if this offers variety and doesn't get stale fast.

I think the combat looks fun, but it just being an arena brawler is kind of a bummer to me.

These are my concerns. The combat looks great but I'll need a bit more out of it. Hopefully there is a degree of longevity to the content.

Platinum Games - Please please PLEASE get the rights for the true Transformer's theme song:
