    That's actually pretty cool. I played Rage of Bahumut for a little bit, and it was kinda fun though I quit because the magic/fantasy theme wasn't my thing, but I see myself playing many hours in this. Can't wait.

    EDIT - An interesting design for Optimus there. Looks like a mix between his forms in TFP and the games. It will be cool to see all the new designs that come with this.

    Someone needs to tell them that there's more to G1 than just 1984-1985. Hopefully it's just the preview art that shows those and they've got characters like Countdown, Vroom, Doubleheader, and Snarler in the wings as well..

    Transformers Card Battlers

    IGN is reporting that ngmoco will be launching a new Transformers card battler later this year for Android and iOS. Details are minimal at this point, but it appears the game will be similar to DeNA's (ngmoco's parent company) popular Rage of Bahamut.

    Magic: TG really dropped the ball. Mobile is perfect for card games. Hopefully this gets a lot of attention to balance and long term developer support.

    I missed the preview pics of the other guys. I really like Ravage. Hound looks based right off his Universe toy.

    But I do think it will get more expansive; if it's anything like Rage of Bahamut, which has hundreds of different cards, there should be a good bank of cards. Since this is an early preview of course they did some of the well known and core characters first, but I think there should be lots of room for others too.

    Depends on the game and its structure. Personally I think mtg on a smart phone would induce eyeball bleeds. That being said I agree in principle that mobile is a potentially solid platform for card games.

    Well, there's an iPad version for you then. Personally I don't consider that very mobile though.

    But with the right interface I really think a smart phone screen could be ideal.

    Digging the art.

    There's potential here to feature literally hundreds of characters if they felt so inclined.

    I would get a PC port if they added it through steam or another digital storefront. Personally I think they saw the game I was making and decided to get one out before me :p 

    Of course I am joking. Not about the card game thats real, but I am along way from being able to put anything up for download. Still this game looks pretty nice artwork wise, and hope they add more and more characters from G1 to give a bit more variety.

    From the Rage of Bahamut guys? Those kinds of games are so bland and boring -_-

    I'll download it if it's free just because it's Transformers related, but still... blah.
