That'd be cool. I don't like the cover for the xbox/ps3 at all, the off center look doesnt really work that well. A game this epic calls for a badass group shot. Something like Optimus, Bumblebee, Ironhide and Jetfire all standing in front of Omega Supreme on a devastated area of Iacon with aerial Decepticons in bound. something that gives that "stand your ground vibe".
Brave Magnus
I like the DS covers. The Wii one…not so much. thanks for posting them.
jazz4ever
The DS version has multi-player!? This game is so bought!
Seriously, That made My day.
ViperDragon
The game for the PC is using the Unreal3 engine, correct? If so, if you can play the latest Unreal Tournament or other Unreal3 engined games, then you may be able to play this without upgrading. I haven't played PC games for a long time cause my system is down-level. Heck, I don't even know what the latest and greatest system or video card is now-a-days!

I'm torn between getting the Wii or PC versions, but will probably get the former as my laptop's not the most reliable piece of equipment. But so far, looks to be pretty good sounding game.

All the online outlets that are selling the game for the PC (Gamestop, Amazon, BestBuy, etc.) still list the game as coming out on the 22nd of June, so so far I'd say all the versions are still going to come out on that date. Maybe because your store isn't a major retail chain it hasn't been listed in your systems yet.
Do you plan on getting WFC for the PC?

The box art is bad ass.
But i already knew this box art change for a while now…
cant wait for the game only 2 months away
Sentry Prime
Delay on PC Release??
I Manage a Computer store here in Aust…Just had a quick look at our game suppliers to sneak my preorder in with the rest of the dailies, only to find that the Xbox360 and PS3 versions are listed, but not the PC version
anyone know if the PC version is yet another title that will see delayed release, in order to bolster console sales (reaches for his tin-foil hat) ??

Why in gods name does the Wii boxart say "Cybertron Adventures"?
Batman
Cool.
MrByatis
I thought you would be able to swap between three characters not two
Scorpion
I won't mind spending a small bit of money to upgrade to play this…but I'm talking like $40 max
mariobros27772
is it "games for windows" or not?
Mechafire
Don't think I'm too keen on the Wii box art, but the rest are pretty cool.
Lock Cade
Love the covers for the DS!
Metal Maverick
If I didn't have to upgrade my pc in order to play it I just might have gone with the pc version.
Bgrngod
So a full image of WFC Prime compared to an image of half of him somehow makes it "faggy"? What does that even mean?
SwindlesShop
im suprised you guys prefer the faggy Wii cover, the 360 cover is way better
ViperDragon
Yes, because the PC is a port of the 360 so ports are cheaper on the PC.
HighCaptSpock
It may just be because I have gotten used to it, but I kind of prefer the placeholder box art with Cybertron on the cover.
Still, it's a shame the DS Autobots box wasn't designed to be reversed so you could put them together like this:

I loved it when TV Guide would do covers like that.
