Murr Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Activision and Hasbro are linking forces to translate the Transformers Prime cartoon into a new “action brawler” for Wii and 3DS. Based on the Daytime Emmy Award-winning CGI show, Transformers Prime will cast players as members of Team Prime and task them with saving the world from Megatron and his yet-to-be-revealed “secret weapon”. Playable characters will include Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Arcee, Ratchet, and Bulkhead. Humans Jack, Miko, and Raf will also make an appearance. “We are collaborating closely with the series creators to capture all the adventure, humor and friendships from the show to create an authentic action experience for Transformers fans of all ages to enjoy.,” David Oxford, Activision Publishing's executive vp. What? No hamfisted “More than meets the eye” references? Sometimes it feels like they just aren't trying anymore. Transformers Prime is being developed by Japanese developer NowPro (Little League World Series Baseball), and will be out later this year as a Nintendo exclusive. A DS version is also in the works from Altron Corporation (Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition). Source - Gamesradar.

bryanee Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 The show is awesome, they best not cock it up. But then again I have Fall of Cybertron to look forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Looks below average from the initial trailer, but hopefully gameplay footage and the style they choose for the in game visuals might prove otherwise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_prOdigy Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 NowPro is a neat little studio - they co-developed Sonic and the Secret Rings as well as handling the Mario baseball games. This has a good chance of being miles better than any of the western Transformers games of recent post-Bay (shudder) years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Isn't Fall of Cybertron supposed to be a pretty great game? EDIT: Oh yeah I meant War for Cybertron, but the sequel is looking good too. Edited March 16, 2012 by Retro_Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Isn't Fall of Cybertron supposed to be a pretty great game? if the first game War for Cybertron was then yes! This Prime game doesn't fill me with hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Isn't Fall of Cybertron supposed to be a pretty great game? Yup. Played the hell out of it on and offline for the 360. I also added Transformers The Movie soundtrack on to the 360's HDD so I could have The Touch and Dare hit at the appropriate times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah does seem a little early to be making any kind of judgement on that trailer. The tv series is truly fantastic and feels like it took a lot of the best bits of previous series. Definitely going to be keeping an eye out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanee Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 So this is actually good? IGN 8/10 http://uk.ign.com/articles/2012/11/07/transformers-prime-the-game-review I might have to get the Wii U version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wii Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 So this is actually good? IGN 8/10 http://uk.ign.com/articles/2012/11/07/transformers-prime-the-game-review I might have to get the Wii U version. I thought this was the review for the Wii version. Bar the tiny writing above the review score in grey on white I'd no idea what platform this game was for. Hopefully the Wii version scores as highly.

bryanee Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Its supposed to be the same game across all formats isnt? If it is I imagine the Wii and Wii U versions being as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
