Love the Beast Wars love in here! 
FYI; Next Level Games hired Richard Newman to voice as the Bear Hugger in Punch-Out, he was the voice of Rhinox.
Are there any deals for Cybertron Adventures in Canada?

No crazy performance differences between Xbox and PS3 versions right?
I'm really stoked for this game. I'm 33, so I was playing with the original Transformers back when they first came out and have been waiting for a good Transformers game ever since.
The movies were a disappointment. I can't wait until 10 or 15 years from now when they do a reboot of the franchise :-D

Beast Wars ? bleh ... G1 all the way. I guess they kinda messed with the story a bit having Aerialbots and Jetfire before the Autobots arrive on Earth.
The game is almost insta-win for having Peter Cullen and Omega Supreme(shame he doesn't seem playable).
I'll probably grab this tomorrow at lunch.

Paid if off earlier today! I'm sooooo pumped. And I somehow managed to luck out on having two days off of work. So whats the status on friend list thread in the online section or should we just do the ol' metatag? If you want a competent medic/engineer your going to want me on your side .

I can't wait. It's very irritating knowing that I have class tomorrow night that will eat into my game time. Looks like I'm gonna have to get up early to get some playing in before class.
My Prime and Bumblebee figures are all ready to go .

Oh snap! It's out tomorrow?
I had it pre-ordered, but I only have $5 towards it.
I guess I'll rent it.

Want but not until a price drop.
This game is the batman of the year. Unknown quality movie game, but it looks really good judging from the mp demo.
I really didn't want to buy any more Activision games, I am making that fucker so rich that he wants to do subscription to Call of Duty mp.
Yes and Starcraft 2 is gonna cost 109 sgd in my country so awesome....

The multiplayer demo hasn't totally sold me yet, but there's so few reviews or campaign gameplay videos. I don't know what to do!

I got my copy from EB yesterday and they charged me $59Aust for it (was meant to be $79, but they fucked up and were discounting $20 off it).
I went back today to pick up my pre-order code as they didn't have them yesterday when I picked up my copy.
Anyway, it says that in order to unlock Jazz and Shockwave, I have to go to www.transformersgame.eu enter the codes there, and then they'll email me the codes for the 360. The problem is, that site doesn't work.
Anyone else in Aust who got their copy and pre-order bonus having the same issue redeeming your code???

Sweet deal. I'll be playing the campaign as soon as I get off work tomorrow, looking forward to co-op with fellow TF GAFers.Foxix said:
Also, is anyone else with a pre-order from Gamestop/EB planning to get the Shockwave code, return the game for a full refund and buy the game from Best Buy for Jazz? That's my plan for tomorrow.
A new full review! PS3 Version

Isn't the download code for Shockwave actually included in the case? I can't imagine that GameStop would give you a full refund after you've opened the game and removed the code.Barrow Roll said:
For anyone who's interested in the DS version(s):
It's not mentioned in the OP (unless I missed it/it gets updated), but Toys R Us has an exclusive character in the DS versions of the game. From their site:
Toys R Us said:
The credits for the PS3/Xbox version have also been uploaded to YouTube. In addition to some slick visuals, the credits also feature a new-ish song from Stan "The Touch" Bush.

As someone who grew up with G1...nope. Beast Wars is the best thing ever to happen to the Transformers brand. By far the best written Transformers TV work of all time, and highly unlikely to ever be topped.
It's a different continuity, as is almost every Transformers story after 1999. It's not even the only story of its type, since the War Within comic series covers the same territory, as does Megatron: Origins to some degree.

Well I had guessed that the code would be on a separate hand-out like most Gamestop preorder bonuses but if it's inside the case then scratch my plan. I wanted Shockwave more than Jazz anyways.Whimsical Phil said:
Thanks Whimsical Phil, I added the Toys 'R Us pre=order option to the OP.
By the way, awesome figurines from War for Cybertron. Reminds me of several months ago, when I got the Transformers Universe classic figurines of Ironhide and Sideswipe for 8 a piece
Damn, the PC version of WFC is 29,99 right from the start here in Holland.
Also about the show: G1 might the best, but Beast Wars comes in close. Best story in the Transformers franchise ever. Plus, I really like David Kaye as Megatron. Yeeeessss. Animated is the third best TF series btw.

And yeah, the figures are pretty fantastic. I already have the Megatron and Soundwave WFC figures on pre-order at Big Bad Toy Store.
Show-wise, I love G1 as much (and probably more) than the next guy, but as far as storytelling goes, I would place Animated above it. Animated got especially good once it moved into the second and third seasons.
Oh but Animated has a better story, but the show gets a lot of unnecessary hate because of the artstyle. The show itself and all the awesome references regarding the original show are amazing. And even Beast Wars references. Anyway, I still hear the complaints of Tom Spongebob Kenny voicing Starscream, but he was the best Starscream in years :lol

I just played the first few levels and so far i love it. I was worried the level design would be too cramped and repetitive but there are some cool open spaces and areas with crazy shit going on. The gameplay overall is a little uninspired but if you like transformers its really fun. My only major complaint would be its not all that satisfying to shoot enemies.
