    Looks alright so far, kinda wish they used cell shading. Also where does it say no transforming option?

    It doesn't outright SAY it, but the screen captures seem to imply it, since the entire look and level layout of the game are different in the vehicle mode and robot mode shots.

    Looks okay.
    Hope you can play as Decepticons/Dinobots or Elite Guard.

    LOL at the comments on that article though.

    Yeah, otherwise it kinda defeats part of the purpose of a Transformers game. If I wanted to run around one level and then drive or fly around the next then there are plenty of other games I can play which already offer that. Transformers should be able to transform at will within the same level, unless there's a really good reason they can't, like the energon damage in Beast Wars. Not that it actually stopped them transforming, mind...

    This looks pretty cool! But if the Awsome Autobots and/or the Decepticons don't appear, I'm gonna freak out!

    Yeah. Because when I think of Transformers, I immediately think "Kim Possible."

    Pass.

    I'll probably Homebrew it, if it's good enough for me to give Activision money, I'll buy it.

    Eh, would rather have a Capcom fighting game. Animated was practically designed for it.

    I laughed at this. This looks exactly like the really bad teen titans game on the ps2. Or the kim possible ds game you mentioned.

    One thing I really dislike are the now dated mugshots the characters have on the readout display. Having enjoyed both seasons I feel these are disjointed representations of the characters.

    The xbox 360 one will probably rock hard enough to barely notice this however.
    I just want to hear bumper robinson on my console.
