    Yet another report of Megatron being a stealth bomber. Either he really does get this Earth mode, or video game reviewers have a skewed perception of what stealth bombers are & are referring to his Cybertronian jet mode.

    So 2 maybes can be made here i think :

    a) Reviewer thinks Meg's alt mode is a stealth bomber.

    b) Meg's alt mode as stealth bomber only available in the game, while he retains his cybertronian mode in the movie.

    :useless 
    Or at least, that review is. There's really no new info there.

    Meanwhile:
    Trying to give a new meaning to "hybrid vehicle", are they?

    Perhaps the stealth bomber thing is only revealed towards the later half of the movie, makes sense, I mean everyone else it seems got an earth mode revealed except for him so far....

    These previews are useless, because the information that the people are getting is useless. So far, there is nothing in this game that has not been in many games before, including the ability to transform from robot to vehicle (Armada game, Macross, etc).

    It troubles me when game developers list features that are not new to games, because that indicates that there is nothing new about this game at all.

    And that stealth bomber crap is getting on my nerves! They don't do their HW!

    Not much of a review as it's more of a preview. Again, no new info and some incorrect stuff to boot. (sector 7 stuff).

    If Megatron does assume a earthly alt mode, it'll prob be at the very very end. A scene that makes you ready for a sequel.

    Maybe-Megatron rising out from all the rubble and destruction then transforming to the stealth bomber and blasting away.

    Really?! Brawl woulda been fun. I would have liked to see all of the movie bots in the game, too bad that can't happen :(  Is there somewhere that has a full list of playable game characters?

    I hope he's not a stealth bomber. I don't know what I want him to be, but not a stealth bomber.

    This is what really confused me about the article. In the article, they mention specifically you being able to go back and play the level again as another Transformer, like a "Hummer". Granted, they also said "Ford Mustang", which we know none of the TF movie bots are, but still...

    Well, there's 12 Transformers in the film total and only 9 in the game so it wouldn't surprise me.
