Be Excellent To Each Other

Ok, do me a favour and just close your eyes.

No, hang on, click on this video THEN close your eyes.

Listen. Listen to the voices. Listen to Grimlock say "Me Grimlock." Listen to the glorious voices.

Done that? Ok. Now watch it again and just take in the images. Where are you? You are a child again. You are watching Wackaday. Nothing can hurt you. Your mind is filled with transforming robots. As you watch, your hands are holding toys again. One in each of your beautiful child hands. Plastic robots. The robots on TV. You also have a tiny ineffectual penis. But also robots.



God bless you all. You and your robots friends.

And your tiny penises.

Amazing!

As I still have a tiny penis, playing this really will be an amazing trip back in time.

I agree.

Trousers has a tiny penis.

Also, that game looks awesome

I've been avoiding this thread until now because Michael Bay has basically ruined Transformers for me. Then I accidentally clicked on it.

WOW

No, it's Transformer's Transformers: Devastation.

TT:D

Bum.

PETER CULLEN!

Devastator looks A-Maze, btw.

THIS IS OUT TODAY!

I should totally gerrit. I will totally gerrit. Anyone read any reviews of it?

The only review appears to be from The Metro.

8/10

It's apparently Bayonetta but not quite as good BUT WITH TRANSFORMERS FROM THE CARTOON.

That's me sold then. I'm getting it tomorrow.

According to Mr Shopkeeper this is actually out tomorrow. Wasted trip to town, then.

If only there was some kind of massive and easily searched repository of information that you could look up to find out this kind of thing before leaving the house. What a world that would be.

Like a telephone hotline. Yeah, it'd be ace.

Oh eight nine one FIFTY FIFTY FIFTY
Oh eight nine one FIFTY FIFTY FIFTY

New images of the game have surfaced

This is out today! Probably! Who knows anymore. Maybe it will never come out. Maybe it's all an elaborate scam to get us to go use the town centres across the nation. Maybe we're all just bags of fluid floating through the air like plastic bags in the wind. Yeah, deep, man. Deep. Deeply dippy. About the dum, de, dum, something something, off to the something we go, deeply dippy, dum de... and so on.

Here's a thing which I'll just shove in here:

http://www.classification.gov.au/Pages/ ... sHBG9lWpXU

Essentially Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhatten has had an Australian classification for some reason. Why's it in here? Platinum Games are named so this could be their next game.

I was disappointed they didn't use the intro sequence from the cartoon.

Platinum are saving us from Micheal Bay.

I bought this in the XboxOne digital christmas sale for £20. Not had chance to even look at it yet and I get Fallout 4 tomorrow from Santa*

So overall this post is mainly to advise the millions of Xbox One owners on here that it's £20 for Gold Members at the moment.

Fill your boots you ravenous hordes.

* providing I have been a good boy. Jury still out.

I bought it ob the PS4 Christmas sale for £15 and yeah it is good.

You've missed the sale now though.

There should we a website or something to tell us when and where to get cheap games.

It's actually £16 on PSN today to you could get that.

Transformers: Devastation is mechanically identical to Bayonetta 2 except you don't have to use the stupid WiiU pad so therefore it's better than B2.

You don't have to use the Wii U Gamepad to play Bayonetta 2. It supports the Pro controller, or the Classic controller.
First screenshots of Platinum's upcoming TMNT game.

I think they signed a three game deal with Activision, so this would be the third, but depending on how profitable these three were for both parties, they could do more.

I haven't got either of those controllers, so I could care less. Anyway, it was just a bit of harmless poking fun at the unwieldy controller.

Transformers is pretty awesome though. Level 1 and I've fought Megatron twice and messed up Devastator already. FUCK YEAH! I'm surprised more people haven't got interested in this.

Wait - it's like Bayonetta?

It's made by the same people.

So is my brother, but I'm a foot taller than him.

The combat is except its less fancy, has shorter combo strings and involves Transformers transforming rather than getting nekked mid-fight but it has witch-time, is the same Platinum combo masher for beginners but is more nuanced at higher difficulties. But it improves on Bayonnetta because it has Transformers and everyone's fave voices. Megatron in particular sounds glorious.

When you say less fancy do you mean graphically or "play"ically?

Playically really, although Bayonnetta was high on the scale for zany graphics during fighting, anyway, right, which this doesn't even attempt to emulate (although they do turn into cars and a dinosaur which I suppose is pretty out there). You've not got the range of weapons that Bayonetta had but you do have different robots who play differently. Prime is all about the hand axe, Bumblebee is about the punching and Sideswipe is about the twin blades, and so on.

Yeah it is way simpler than their other similar games, but it plays and feels a lot like Bayonetta or Revengenace.

I really want to play this.

You're dead to me.

So, I think he said he could care less?

Fewer.

And you'd be right, that is what he said. :confused:

This is fun! Let's all just post links at each other rather than bother to give our own opinions.

Sorry, my intention was to evolve the initial crime into a greater aberration of the English language by kicking things off with a So and rounding out with a question mark.

Anyway, shouldn't we be discussing this addicting game?

Just noticed that the colour on the pad changes to colour of your chosen autobot. Best. Game. EVA*.






*not actually the best game ever.

And fuck me if I didn't just have the shittest fight ever in any game. I'm uploading this because it was mindbendingly awful.

A fight in the space bridge where there's no floors, ceiling or fucking nothing. Just you walking in a colourful vacuum in a fight against Starscream who flies all over the fucking shop - under you over you around you. Now, I'll be honest I read that the fights against flying enemies was bad but it really isn't at all. But the fight here was fucking nonsense. And it dawned on me earlier but became very apparent in this fight that the lack of any lock on whatsoever is a bleeding terrible idea. Or maybe they ran out of time to implement it. No, that can't be right, a lock on is the bread and butter of the basic mechanics of these games and, by golly, Platinum have made enough of these sodding games to know how to make a lock-on mechanic surely? Then why am I trying to track enemies with the right stick whilst trying to jam my delicate fingers on the right buttons. I ain't a crab and ive got enough osteoarthritis from years of touching myselfgaming so fuck that for a laugh.

Oooh, not happy about that. It's really diminished any goodwill it had from including the Transformers characters. Grrrrr. Wait till I've uploaded it and tell me I ain't going mad.
