TFcon year 3 had a demo of the Transformers Armada game. And I agree with you it would be cool to have it at our show.

I think this might not be a new series. I think this is a game set out to be a War Within/ Stormbringer idea in video game form as sort of a lead up to G1, or quite possibly, yes, a new series. But if it were a new series, It would not have gone to print unless hasbro gave a word. If Hasbro says nothing about it, then chances are it's just a Pre earth game.

I'm sure it will be just as crappy as every other TF video game out there, the legacy of shame lives on.

Hope this turns out good. ROTF is kind boring after a while and online game play is really really shitty.

so next year we will see, new TF cartoon toys, Universe/Classic 3.0 and maybe the game ones??? ouch...

i need to change my shorts

this game looks absolutely stunning!! i just pray they mechanics of the game end up like the control/combo style that's in god of war!!!!the pic that shows prime with his double bladed axe seals it!!!

can you guys imagine fighting a boss battle against a screen hogging thunderwing?hopefully it'll be another fight like the armada tidalwave fight.........(what???i can dream can't i??

)

produced by activison, then i dont think there wil be a license battle for it. If it got crazy graphics then Wii would be out of the game.

I hope this game will be awesome but i am concerned in couple areas

1. "The game is said to be in development at High Moon Studios, developers of Darkwatch and The Bourne Conspiracy, and due for a 2010 release."
-I do not think any of these two games High Moon developed became a hits.

2. how long have them been developing this? Gears of War game play is awesome. but integrating transforming and alt mod roaming into this game might be difficult? They will need truly massive maps if it is not going to be free roaming.

i guess we will have to wait until the demo comes out. I am getting the game regardless if it's a win or fail.... i hope it's going to be good

That.... that's REALLY nice looking. There's something about those promo images that actually feels very oldschool, despite the fact that the designs are also clearly a mashup of Bayformer, War Within and classic styles. Who's responsible for these designs... it's an interesting direction.

If this game is any good, and becomes semi-popular, I could easily see us getting toys based on the game.

And if there is going to be toys of these I can't wait to see how this "energon flow" will be done... light up leader class figures!

Well, it's a less intrusive way of showing how much damage a character's taken than having a health bar above their heads.

I have my doubts on whether or not there'll be Leader-class figures for this line, though. Classics, after all, never got anything above an Ultra (as a new mould, at least.) The Leader and Supreme classes seem to be reserved for lines with an associated movie or TV series pushing them; I suspect that if we get figures for this game they'll generally be Deluxes, Scouts and Voyagers, with maybe an Ultra or two thrown in for the bigger characters.
