Now we all know that as an unproven but undisputable (not real) rule, movies based on video games suck. And video games based on movies tend to suck too.
But what happens when you get a tv show based on a toy that becomes a movie that becomes a game based on the toy crossed with the realism and styling of the movie and the graphic comics that already has video games that becomes a Massively Multiuser Online Game?
“TRANSFORMERS is one of the most iconic brands in the world and we are delighted to team up with Hasbro in order to bring our shared vision to reality,” … “There is a huge appetite for an online TRANSFORMERS game and we will utilize every bit of our development and publishing expertise to deliver a dynamic and action-packed game that TRANSFORMERS fans will find irresistible.”
I really enjoyed War for Cybertron, and if they keep it to that style and the deathmatch PvP, I could really see a Cybertron based Transformers MMO really taking off.
The true test will be character customization. War for Cybertron’s only drawback was that you got to play a number of archetypes, but not get to embody any of the personalities.
I want to make my own Transformer dammit.
Ok, he will look like HotRod.
