    I'm sick of hearing about the TFP influences in Fall of Cybertron. The series started out as a throwback to G1 and should stay that way. Don't even get me started on how shitty Cliffjumper's face looks in the game.

    I'm so sick of Archer and Tieger. Prime is getting it's own game, they should let FOC and any further games be about G1, like they originally said. This whole unified continuity is ******ed. Prime's gun should look more like his original gun, that should be their motive...and yet Hasblow is getting too involved it seems. Their marketing team always knows how to fuck good shit up, for the sake of "incorporating all the fans". They always over think shit and fuck a good thing up. I can't stand Tieger...he needs to get lost.

    What good is split screen when Co-op is no longer part of the game?

    Honestly, the belief that everything should be G1 is very tiring. I know you feel connected to it, I know it brings back your childhood. Regardless, this game has most of your G1 characters, G1 designs, G1 voices, but the fact that the plot is supposed to be tied to Prime and not G1 ruins the game and is signs of Hasbro's terrible marketing?

    I just think that many of the people in this community have an absolutely ridiculous way of rating Transformers media. It's a scale from 1-10, where 10 is "things like G1" and 1 is "They aren't acknowledging us as fans!".

    That said, I dig the custom options. I might get this after all.

    No new info but at least we got a glimpse at the customisation. If the game has improved in every single way then melee better have too.

    It's cool to see Prime get its own game.

    A tank Vehicon? SWEET! I'm already picturing my squad of Vehicon cars, jets, and tanks on display.



    Also, I am SERIOUSLY anticipating FOC. The more they show, the more I like it.

    co-op isn't even close to the only kind of multiplayer there is. I'll take 4 player deathmatches and other game types with splitscreen over online multiplayer almost any day.

    I know its foreign to a lot of people these days, but I like hanging out with a bunch of friends playing the game in the same room.

    Anyone notice the new multi player classes? They replaced leader class with a destroyer class and soldier with titan. Scientist stayed the same and they blocked the scout class from view.

    I believe that the class change was revealed some time ago.

    It's primarily just going to be a name change.

    So. If this means War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron is tied into the Prime universe, does this mean we'll see an adaptation of Transformers Prime on Consoles with WfC / FoC controls? God, I hope so.

    Looking forward to Fall of Cybertron! :thumb  And the Prime game acutally looks pretty darn cool with it's different sets of Vehicons too! :D  I may consider getting it for my Wii if the game does turn out awesome or at least a good game when compaired to FOC.
