Any idea when the embargo is up?

My wife needs a last minute birthday present and I figure this is pretty close to a sure thing

Someone should make a new thread of this footage.
Honestly though Megs' gun mode would be the most silliest thing to do in this game. Tank form is better in this case.

Besides they're still making Gun Megs' toys.
 
Are external (trustworthy ones, of course) sites like GMG and Nuuvem going to sell this game? I'll pay $50 if I have to, but money is tight this month.

I wish they'd put out some high level gameplay footage from this already. Hard to get the feel of the game when all the footage out there is just people mashing the Square button ad nauseum.

A few traders are offering the Steam ver. for USD 40 if interested.

Amazon.de is selling the retail PC ver. (should come with a steam key) for EUR 20.

Vince Dicola but not Stan Bush?

This better sell well enough that we get a sequel, which can bring in the characters from the Movie Magnus, Kup, Hot Rod, Blur, Unicron, Galvatron, Cyclonus etc and have Stan Bush on the sound track

That's an uh interesting way of getting the word out. Give a demo to all the youtubers.

That's what literally everyone is doing these days. Cheaper than doing an ad campaign, especially if they didn't have to pay them, as is stated in Brentalfloss's video.

I just noticed there isn't a combo counter in the game. Sup wit dat.

Well I hope it works for them.

I've been covering niche action games on Youtube for a decade. How do I get a code? I guess it's just for the big Youtubers, but they should consider reaching out to the hardcore action game community.

Can anyone confirm Vince Dicola's involvement in the game? I'm searching all over the net and I haven't found anything suggesting that he was. The only information provided was given in the Mike & Ryan video.

This is the first time it's been mentioned. The only known tidbit is that it's not Jaime Christopherson. So either it's someone else entirely or the PR agency simply hasn't been bothered to mention it. He did compose for an indie game earlier this year...

I wonder if this does well they'll start adding things from other series. I don't know what classic Transformers fans thought of it, but I enjoyed Armada the animated Transformers shows that dealt with a lot of minicons and stuff like that. I still have some of the toys like Jetfire, Hotshot and others.

Yeah.Jamie Christopherson is not working on Transformers, i was surprised because the music from the gameplay trailer reminded me MGR a lot rofl.
 
Uh, holy shit at that Shockwave boss fight.

Looks like my fears of this being as underwhelming as Korra are put to bed.

Surpprised Christopherson's not composing, though. The initial batle music sounds straight out of Rising.

Why does this have to come out in the middle of my mid-terms? ;_;

Fuckity fuck fuck.

If you can spare it, get it, then when your midterms are over treat yourself to this game, cuz by then there'd be a lot of combos and exhibition videos showcasing the cool attacks you can do in the game ;)

HYPE.

One day with DLC or another game, there should be one of those classic Decepticon power struggles. Megatron unleashes Devastator on Starscream and Starscream is like...
"I have prepared for this emergency, Megatron. Combaticons, merge into Bruticus!"
Only to have Menacor obliterate them both into a massive crater.

Vince DiCola is doing some music for the game it seems, from this interview

http://nerdystuff.com/2015/09/trans...nd-lead-producer-robert-conkey-at-activision/

Nerdy Stuff: Music-wise, will you be using any of the tracks from the excellent soundtrack from The Transformers: The Movie?

Robert Conkey: All of the music in the game is completely original. However, a certain composer who worked on the 1986 movie may have made significant contributions…

Watch as 'In the end it has to be this way' be replaced with The Touch.

Oh fuck me...

I love Stan Bush, but I really hope he doesn't mean Stan Bush.

Also thanks to this thread I've just discovered DiCola's Angry Birds Transformers score, which -as much as I dislike Angry Birds- is mindblowing.

Fuck, this is the best-looking Platinum game to date, aesthetically, probably because they stuck so closely to the source material. I'm not too big on Platinum's gaudy in-house art-direction.
