Transformers Trailer Goes Behind the Scenes of Cybertron War
by Chris Faylor, Mar 15, 2010 12:40pm PDT"I think people are going to be blown away," Hasbro senior deign director and self-proclaimed Transformers universe overseer Aaron Archer says of High Moon's upcoming robotic action game in the below trailer. Why's that? Well, the explanation involves some cinematic footage, some gameplay footage, and some talking heads:
Coming to PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii and Nintendo DS, Transformers: War For Cybertron is slated to arrive in the time between April 1 and June 30, 2010.

It's the first time in 20+ Years that someone's come up with Transformer designs that aren't terrible spin-offs of something else.
It really looks like something between the War Within Series (Don Figueroa's concept art is Amazing) and the Original Series. None of these horrid designs with wheels and wings or wires hanging off everywhere (like the Live Action Movies or 90% of the Transformers Toys since the 90's...).
For the most part, they look like you would EXPECT them to look... and that right there is the hook. Hopefully the gameplay holds up.
In any case it seems to have high awesome potential - a gritty transformers game.
