So I'm sitting here watching this Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen trailer and thinking how boring this game looks. It really just looks a lot like the last game. They even recycle Optimus Prime's "One shall stand, one shall fall" line.
But then Soundwave's voice comes on and I get chills. I know, I'm a nerd ... shut up. Seeing the Decepticons wreck sh*t up actually got me excited for the game. It looks like Rampage with robots! Then the trailer gets even more awesome at the very end with a look at The Constructicons.
Take a look at the trailer after the break. So which side are you on, Dtoiders? Autobots or Decepticons?

To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Looks cool but it looks like its the previous game with some vast improvements. Not really a bad thing but I got bored of the first game within a couple of hours.
The transformations actually don't look as terrible as in the movie. Still hate the designs though, which were only bested for crap by the rest of the movie.
Glad Transformers wasn't my super ultimate number favorite cartoon as a kid or Michael Bay would have ruined my childhood. How about we all just forever that these movies and their crappy videogame spinoffs ever existed? Sounds like a plan to me.
Decepticons. I'm glad Soundwave is in this, he's always been a favorite of mine and the voice indeed give me chills. Noticed they snuck in the classic transformation sound byte even though it probably won't be in the official game.
It must have been a nightmare for the programmers to get every details and realistic transformation sequence right. But what the heck is the last huge robot thingy? What the hell does that thing transform to?

Beware the LeBeouf!!!
That's great hahaha I think he's more of a risk than the Decepticons.
I'd be a Maximal

You're right about the chills!
