    I am the only one that's noticed this or is it just not that obvious? Let's look at the evidence so far.One,in the multiplayer trailer for the game he's being shot at by Ironhide...why? Two,the fact that they are saying he's not Mirage pretty much halves his chances of being an autobot.Three,His face.Look at all the other autobots and decepticons in the movie.Sure looks like a Decepticon face to me.And last,the pictures.In the new game art he's standing side by side with megs and shocky,and in the tv spot he's threatening a soldier.

    Does this mean he's gonna be important later on,maybe an autobot spy,or an agent for shockwave?Now I'm sorry if this has already been talked about,just didn't see a post and wanted to see what everyone else thought.

    It was widely considered he was a spy back when the whole "His name is Dreadbox" speculation was happening. But now since comic adaptions/novels/TV spots have been released, it's been pretty unanimous that he's a Autobot.

    Those multiplayer images you are looking at could be from a Free for all mode. It that case, it wouldn't matter if your characters were on the same side in the film, the players are out for themselves.

    There are also images of Mirage being attacked my Megatron, and an image of Mirage killing a Decepticon drone up close.

    Nope, he's more than likely (id say 99.999999999999%) MIRAGE

    Wouldn't be the first time Mirage was mistaken for a traitor...

    Right, Cliffjumper?

    The original rumour of him being a 'Con came from a misquote of Bay, basically saying "we have new charatcers, A decepticon named Dreadbox, a Ferrari..." The part about Dreadbox and the Ferrari were supposed to be seperated.

    He's an Autobot. The scene from the trailer is
    because apparently Autobots have gotten jobs in the Military, being dispatched to fight terrorists and generally keep the peace. That's not an American soldier he's confronting.

    I wouldn't be surprised if him being a traitor was from an early version of the script. The internet believed it to be so for a bit.

    Mirage - noun: something illusory and unattainable
    Deception (or Decepticon) - noun: a misleading falsehood

    :eek:  MY GOD! He's on to something!

    So were all calling him mirage for sure now? Even though on the front page of this very site there's a story quoting the Michael Bay website admin as saying that the ferrari will not be Mirage.But that's beside the point.And as for this...

    Awesome,I'm being compared to Cliffjumper.lol.

    Anyways,I never said he was a decepticon,just seems like they're portraying him to be one in the media they've released so far.If he's an autobot in the movie,which I'm hoping he is,then cool.If he's not,and he's a decepticon,then whatever.I'm just putting it out there as a thought just to make sure if he is,there's no rage about it.But I guess that would be like stoping the world from rotating.

    Being that he is supposed to be mirage in the game,novel,comic, and toy, its almost certain that MIRAGE is Mirage
    if this is a lie
    THEN how do we know ANYTHING is true

    Its just a name, does this argument really need to happen again? Here's an idea: wait until the movie is out to get an answer.

    No-one has considered that he might be BOTH in the film. Would make more sense to actually SEE him switch during.

    I wouldn't say you are being compared to Cliffjumper, or that you are wrong in your speculations. Everyone is allowed to have their own interpretations of what they here. My only issue is when we take a little thing that someone says as actual fact without much reasoning to back it up.

    As for your assumptions on Mirage, its quite possible for it to be an idea Bay and company had initially. Mirage has been known time and time again for being suspected of treason in different Transformers series, so why not this one.
    But lets not also forget that a new character has already been depicted as a betrayor of the Autobots.

    I for one would like to see something like this as well. Granted, we had Jetfire's so-called crossover to the Autobots, but I'd much rather see a character who
    starts out as a Decepticon in the film, taking part in a few battles against the Autobots, and then switch over halfway through or towards the climactic end. much like the way Dinobot II died in the Beast Wars cartoon, you know?

    Mario is an Autobot, Bay even said he was nearly a year ago at a charity event. All the filming in Chicargo shows him driving around with the Autobots.

    I can't believe this crap about him being a Decepticon has come up again.
