    Yeah, cause that totally sounds like it's not gonna be a pain in the ass for the players.

    Pound to a pinch of shit that Devs gets a DLC release at some point down the road.

    Because it's Activision.

    And they want your money. :p

    They didn't really specify if it was 5 TFs total across the whole game, or 5 per campaign side

    I suspect it's the latter, since only 5 unlockables would most assuredly leave one side with more choices for multiplayer than the other. And that wouldn't be right.

    Hmm good point. Maybe it'll be like this:
    Autobots
    Sideswipe
    Mudflap
    Skids
    Jetfire
    Arcee?

    Cons
    Soundwave
    Fallen
    Ravage
    2 contructicons?

    They should have Devastator for Campaign only, since his presence is Multi would be ridiculously overpowering.

    Jump-in-and-play is multiplayer for the PS2 version.

    Also, this panel REALLY helped calm any remaining fears I had about the ROTF games. Unlike when Activision first came to Botcon for the first TF Movie game, these guys are REALLY enthusiastic about their game and really seemed to have poured their heart and soul into it as opposed to just towing the company line. I can't wait.

    I hear a fair bit about PS3/360 TF. But I want to know about the DS version(s). I know it's technically inferior, but it does feature an improved create a bot. If that's combined with a WiFi multiplayer as I heard roumered.
    The DS could provide a surprise treat.

    This is just an idea I said before.
    Imagine a TransFormers BattleFront game. Like the StarWars Battle fronts.
    Like or hate StarWars those games were a joy.
    Imagine, there could be a level like the Hoth levels. Only instead of the ATATs someone could pilot a BIG TF like devorstater.
    And imagine 16 players either side, Shooting, TransForming and teaming up...
    'Sigh' Surely a game like this would be well received and not impossible to assemble?

    Well I'm going to play Battlefront2 now and cry lots.

    Come my TF brothers and Sisters if we all agree. Maybe some nice programmers might make this a reality?

    I'm getting the DS and PS3 version. Don't know when I'll have time to play the DS version. Really looking forward to the multiplayer on PS3. I want to know when DLC will be released.
