Wish Grimlock had his War Within tank alt design over the Dino design, hopefully his bot designs will resemble his WW design more. WW Grimlock was a bad ass
Can any one tell me why a super advanced race of transforming cyborgs would choose to transform into an extinct primitive species with tiny arms?
Nice!! War for Cybertron was just about everything I could have wished for in a Transformers game. Looking forward to the next one.
Happy Fucking birthday to me. Awesome news. Got Spiderman, aliens: infestation and Batman, New transformers announced. Good birthday. I feel 12. Is play with Jimmy, but he's a buttface.
Wait...Grimlock on Cybertron...Pre-Earth? How? This goes against 25 years of continuity, no matter if you go by the Comics or Cartoon origins of the Dinobots. Unless they plan on having the Ark crash on earth during this game and introduce him then, it just doesn't make sense why he'd have a dinosaur Alt mode.
As for Bumblebee, he's not dead in the pic, just hurt. If he was dead his optics would've gone out. Not to mention they can't kill off the kid friendly product placement character in the game. Can't sell toys off a dead character.

Fuck yes! War for Cybertron was to Transformers what Arkham Asylum was to Batman. I already played the hell out of it on PS3 but recently managed to grab it on Steam for $7.50, so I'll be chopping off some robot scrotum again pretty soon in anticipation to this much deserved sequel.

There's actually 2 different origin stories for the Dinobots. One is the cartoon story, where they are created by Wheeljack after finding some dinosaur bones at the Ark crash site after an earthquake. In the Dreamwave series, the "Dynobots" are actually an elite special ops team led by Grimlock which he formed during the events of War Within. Personally I wish they had gone with the War Within route with his design since they have so much influence from that series in the game already.

Ah, awesome! I was on a focus group panel at PAX for this game, and we decided on that name. If the content we saw was any indication, insecticons are confirmed for sure.
War for cybertron was the best transformers game to date, it was however not a great game. It was a cover based shooter with crap ammo mechanics and while I did enjoy the story elements the franchise needs to get better treatment than being gears of war in a transformer skin with some fun vehicle segments.
Do something innovative or this time around please. Make transformers be a true powerhouse franchise not just another shooter.

I enjoyed the first game except for the constant scramble for ammo since weapons would run the fook out constantly.
yeah I hope this one improves the singleplayer. That part wasn't so hot. I mean it was basically a poor gears of war clone.
Multiplayer was rad though.

"Cool story, bro"-seriously you must be the person keeping Ohinternet around and still posting "The cake is a lie".
I merely made a comment based on the fact that the Dinobots had different Cybertronian alt modes at the time this game is based and were not earth based Dinosaurs. I'm not saying that it's ruined forever or they are raping my childhood, I'm just wondering aloud how they are going to write them in. IIRC, the last game ended with the Autobots talking about leaving Cybertron, so maybe they will have been to earth. I liked having a game based on Cybertron, but they designed it to look exactly the same everywhere, so IF they do end up with some battles on earth it will spice it up a bit.
I'm cool with them changing the origin of them on earth (coming to earth willingly instead of crash landing here), it's just that I kind of want to know which continuity it follows. Maybe after I finish reading Exiles I'll have a better understanding. (So far they know they will have to go to a blue planet surrounded by 7 others and orbiting a lone yellow sun in the book)

Yes! I was worried about the franchise since it wasn't a huge hit. Lets hope the community doesn't dry up as quickly as the first game. The MP was so fun.
Wow, instant buy. The other day I was wondering if they were gonna make a sequel now I'm the happiest guy ever!!!!!!! =D
Support and balance the multiplayer more than tacking on some skins, and they will have the premiere Unreal Tournament-style game.
That was really my biggest complaint. It was my own fault for playing it on PC and expecting a community to stick around, but good WFC multiplayer is incredibly fun. It actually led to games where I had to just stop afterwards because I knew it couldn't get better.

Fuck yes, so glad this is happening. WFC was exactly how a proper Transformers game should have been done, both in terms of single player/coop campaign and ESPECIALLY multiplayer. It was a blast.
WOW.. life is weird... just before login in on Destructoid.com i was thinking "Man! I'm in the mood to play Transformers:WFC" then... front story of Destructoid: Transformers: Fall of Cybertron announced.
Weird...
Weird...
If he doesn't talk like the G1 cartoon I'm going to be sad.
I will still play the crap out of it, but I will be sad.

I wonder if Grimlock will be the unbearable moron he always was.

Isn't much of a spoiler when it's going to be on the cover of Game Informer. It may not even make it into the game that way, the reason for the cover being that way is supposed to be to show how much darker the sequel will be.
@Cryotek
Dreamwave is another publisher who did a line of Transformers comics. The ones this series is more or less based on.
Also to semi-answer another one of your questions, in War For Cybertron one of the gigantic Decepticons (Trypticon, I believe -though I should know this having just replayed it recently) was pretty much a big old flying dragon type robot-thing.. So it's not completely out of the question for Grimlock to exist any way in this continuity... Problem is I don't know as much as I'd like to about the comics its based off of to say where he falls in on it, just that Dreamwave made them and they're fairly gritty like the game is.

I have never read, played, watched anything Transformers related. But I'm buying this game cus it's got a MOTHA FUCKING T-REX!!!!
@Cryotek How was it superior to the console versions? Graphically and looking around, sure but that's it?
