What's the best game from pic related series?
devastation
>>719362546>transYWNBAW
>>719362546I've heard Devestation is extremely good. I played the original movie tie in game, it's not great, but when I played it when I was younger I liked it. It was hardd as fuck as times and infuriating for it, but I was a kid so maybe I wouldn't struggle as much. RoTF looked like a really cool game, similar in a lot of ways to the first game, but objectively speaking it's probably not all that great, just had cool elements. The Cybertron games are kino, dark spark was just kind sub par compared to the prior 2. DoTM is pretty good, made by the same people as the cybertron games.
>>719362546There are only 3 (three) good Transformers games>War for Cybertron>Fall of Cybertron>Transformers: DevastationWar and Fall have great art-direction, responsive third-person shooting and movement, plus some of the greatest stories in the franchise overall.Devastation has a little too much Platinum autism with the scores and awful item system, but it's a supremely satisfying hack-and-slash/character action combo game.Honorable mention to the Armada PS2 game. I don't know how good it is because I've never played it, but some anons on here speak highly of it.
>>719362546DEVASTATION
>>719362546of course people will say Devastation which does have a killer soundtrack and really good combat gameplay.everything else about the game really fucking sucks though. probably some of THE worst level design in any action game and an extremely pointless weapon crafting system. to be honest, the "cybertron" games were much better overall.
>>719362610>>719362853>>719362883>>719363045Devastation only has it's visuals and audio going for it.You people have shit taste.War and Fall of Cybertron is real Transformers.
>>719363269Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. Devastation would top the Cybertron duology if not for those things. Is there a mod to remove the weapon system or at least improve it?
>>719363398The three of 'em are real Transformers. Devastation represents G1 and War/Fall represent... whatever the Aligned universe was supposed to be.It's not like it's gonna get much better than what we already have. Better just appreciate that we got three good games at all.
>>719363269>really good combat gameplay.Doing air combos as a truck is not Transformers.
>>719363398But it plays so good and all the bosses are fun.
>>719363398devastation is unironically the best Platinum game
>>719362546I liked "Transformers: The Game" for the Wii. I haven't played any others.
>>719362546Transformers for the PS2
>>719363763>>719363808It's not Transformers though.
>>719364056It has the designs down to a T and a lot of the classic VAs. It's more Transformers than half of the franchise.
>>719362546>>719363398Devastation is literally the best and no its not just visuals the plot feels exactly like the cartoon, the final confrontation with Megatron and Optimus feels like a send off to the whole franchise, and the characterization for all characters is somehow spot on even when they have a minor appearence, andd lastly the music is fucking amazing. WFC games are great but have generic gameplay and generic orchestral score and have armies of nameless bots cus it has to have that for a shooter.
>>719364173Kid, the LOOKS and SOUNDS are.But gameplay it's not.It's not Transformers.
>>719364339Ok, I'll bite. What IS Transformers?
>I am...Forgotten despite continuing the FOC plot https://youtu.be/4Rd4OyvcGKE?si=i67oIZAjgWHtKmM4
>>719364307Fuck that shit, you'll never convince me it's not fucking nonsense. Ever.
>>719364339ok mr expert. so what is "transformers" then?I would like to know your headcanon for it.
>>719364429War and Fall of Cybertron. I have said it numerous times now.Doing air combos is not Transformers, it's just goofy shit.
>>719364457If you actually like the Transformers franchise you would see the truth in what im saying https://youtu.be/aBI03G-l5Kg?si=xXgivqGNXuytVkk5https://youtu.be/RTsolEfnqYs?si=RB_PQOlOhL-115pAhttps://youtu.be/RTsolEfnqYs?si=RB_PQOlOhL-115pA
>>719364493See >>719364503
>>719364503youre a fucking idiot there are tons of flying transformers and in g1 the decepticons could literally float mid air. The logical extension of that in game form is "air combos" youre just being autistic about it.
>>719364564You can post all the examples you want, the gameplay IS NOT TRANSFORMERS.
Fall of Cybertron takes the cake for me, cuz its the only reason the Dinobots didn't get vault'd. The devs wanted to do stuff with Grimlock and the rest, but Hasbro told them they were planning on sunsetting the characters. Dark Moon convinced them to let them use them, and they didn't go the way of the dinosaur.
>>719364503>it's just goofy shit.have you seen or read any of the transformers comics/shows before? they do a ton of fucking dumb ass goofy shit.fucking retard.
>>719364616You can cope all you want, I rather have the real Transformers experience not OMG THEY FIGHT JUST LIKE DRAGON BALL bullshit.Go fuck yourself.
>>719364503Oh, yes. The air combos. The air combos are not Transformers. It's simply too goofy to have giant sentient alien robots that turn into vehicles and what-have-you float cartoonishly in mid-air as they pummel an opponent. Got it.
>>719362546The internet told me it's either the shut-down (multiplayer) War for Cybertron or Transformers: Decepticons (NDS).>>719362747People have unironically argued that's what trans always stood for back since the IDW comics were cancelled, despite the whole concept behind these toys was that they could transform.
>>719364658thats awesome I have much more respect for the writing in that game for taking them seriously >>719364713Yup, autism. So picrelated is ok but if they start punching each other in air that is over the line? Dumbfuck.
>>719364619>the gameplay IS NOT TRANSFORMERS.so far you havent really explained why its not transformers other than you PERSONALLY thinking its "goofy shit". im one of the anons that posted earlier where i mentioned i prefer the Cybertron games over devastation but you just sound like some stupid autistic faggot. no different than chris chan saying sonic isnt sonic because of the different color arms.
>>719362546War/Fall of Cybertron are legit near masterpieces. Amazing games. Devastation has awesome combat and cool graphics and a fun story/scenario and good music but overall has a low budget feel
>>719364661You won't convince me of this, I fucking hate that shit they did in the game.
>>719364713>the real Transformers experiencewhats the "real transformers experience"?
imagine being mad at a game about cars that turn into giant robots because it's too silly
>>719364734>>719364812>>719364814You can seethe and defend your autistic "muh air combat" bullshit all you want.Fall and War of cybertron is true Transformers. Not goofy ass Dragon Ball bullshit.
>>719364896The struggle and combat. What got them to get themselves in their positions and reasoning for the fight in the first place.>>719364897What is this weird cope? Why should I just think anything is cool because it's slapped with a franchise I love? That's just simp mindless behavior at that point. Fuck that.
>>719364916I didn't think of Dragon Ball at all when I looked at that. It seemed to me more like a confused, 3D-movement Street Fighter.
You fags need to emulate this one, it's honestly solid.
>>719364916please dont ever read any of the comics then. you will have an aneurysm. your autistic brain will overload.
>>719364916>>719365025Nobody tell him about the Japanese G1 continuity
>>719365051>3D-movement Street Fighter.So it's garbage, thanks for confirming. Or did you use a bad example because you never played the 3D Street Fighter games before?
>>719365056Is that one Armada based or is it based on the initially-unrelated Cybertron, fucker?
>>719365056I've watched the cartoon, I have the toys, but I've never bothered to play it. I'm such a fraud.
>>719365075>>719365089Look at this fucking cope that you can't handle I fucking hate what did to Transformers AND TMNT.Fuck you both.
melty alert
>>719364916transformers /co/ fag here.i can easily tell you really have no idea what Transformers really is about other than what you have digested from the games.you really are no different than capeshit fags who only follow the movies. please stop embarrassing yourself in this thread.
>>719365213Oh so if I go against the current I'm melty? Heaven forbid you leave your echo chamber. Did I interupt your fucking cult seasonal circle jerk session?
>>719364916Bro. THEY CAN FLY. WHY WOULDNT THEY BE ABLE TO PUNCH EACH OTHER WHILE FLYING??
>>719365257The comics are fucking garbage. Old and new.
>>719365302BECAUSE THEY DON'T DO THAT SHIT. Not once in G1 did they do "sick air combos bruuuuuuh".
>>719365438In Prime Optimus gets a flying upgrade and he shoots his minigun while flying. So he can punch while flying too.
>>719365502He's not doing fucking combos you contrarian obnoxious fucker.
>>719365438how do you know? you werent there. fucking clown. HAHAHAHAthis fucking autistic kid is having such a meltdown in this thread because people here like flashy gameplay. this is why i hope they never cure autism, you wont get funny ass people like this if they do.
>>719365352nah the original UK run of comics is great, surprisingly violent/action packed
>>719365551It's not Transformers, War and Fall is what real Transformers experience is about. Not doing air combos.
>>719365302They can fly with jet thrusters like a jet plane would, they don't just force themselves to ignore gravity and opposing forces. Landing a midair punch alone would send both parties away uncontrollably, they couldn't start doing marvel vs capcom air combos. Especially since they are 15 ton robots, not 50kg asians.Transformers is not Dragon Ball Z.
>>719365534so if it was a game he could be, games focus on the fighting and action capability you autistic cwc-tier clown
>>719365569No idea about that, I have no opinion.
>>719365631its a video game so physics and weight arent an obstacle to portray combat
>>719365502Picrel can shoot a minigun while flying, doesn't mean it can also punch while flying too.
>>719365631>they couldn't start doing marvel vs capcom air comboshow do you know that?
>>719365634Why the fuck are you simping so hard at the most brain dead shit in the world?Should I applaud when they make a Mighty Max game when all they do is air combos? That's cool to you?
>>719365438>>719365617You're absolutely right. If it doesn't show up in the cartoon, they shouldn't be able to do it in any video game ever. Real Transformers games (Like the Cybertron games) shouldn't have:>Autotroopers/Vehicons>Trypticon transforming into the Nemesis>Dinobots on Cybertron>Airdashing>Combaticons on CybertronBecause they didn't happen in the cartoon, right?
>>719365780For starters, something of that large size and weight could not move that fast.
>>719365631in war of cybertron, when I die, i just comeback to a checkpoint. thats not transformers at all! when a transformers dies, his spark also dies. I shouldnt be able to come back just like that by loading a save.THATS. NOT. TRANSFORMERS!!!!!!!!!
The PS2 game and Fall of Cybertron
>>719365847You're twisting things on purpose and you know that, but I'll play along.War and Fall of Cybertron makes more sense of the Dinobots that G1 had. It made something existing that made it make sense.Yes, air dashing makes no god damn sense.If you played Biker Mice From Mars game, would you think air combos on a bike makes sense, or have motorcycle fights at high speeds like road rage makes more sense?You know damn well Platnium genre broke.
>>719365904have you played war and fall of cybertron before? you can move pretty damn fast in that game. i dont think transformers are capable at strafing left and right and jumping around like that due to their weight. please explain that, expert guy.
>>719365928That's a gameplay convenience, same as having HP.>>719366006>>719365847Dinobots were well known in the war before Earth in practically every TF media.
>>719366128NTA but their vehicle forms is just a disguise. They even say that in the theme, come on now.
>>719366006you know, i have to congratulate you for trolling everyone in this thread. its amazing how well youre able to keep this up. lol i usually just give up after like 1 or 2 shitposting posts.
>>719366128Strafing left and right and jumping is not the same as doing 14 hit combos while hovering in mid air.
>>719365904Well Gundam's can do it so cope.
>>719366184>Dinobots were well known in the war before Earth in practically every TF media.Which war? There have been multiple. I know you made that comment to try and trick me.
>>719366234>Gundam is
>>719366006So why aren't you having a melty about air dashing in War/Fall when your "DBZ air combos" are apparently the only gripe you have about Devastation? Why are they allowed to be "real Transformers"?
>>719362546War and fall of Cybertron.
>>719366208So you're not even going to address a single thing I said? Why even be here if you're not wanting to converse? What's the goal?>>719366234Gundams are mechs not robots.
>>719366184>That's a gameplay convenience, same as having HP.well thats not transformers then because in the world of transformers, they dont have HP. once they die, they die. you keep saying the cybertron games are "real transformers" but it sounds like those games too arent real transformers if youre able to just reload a checkpoint to come back to life.
Alright /v/, which one is rumle and which one is frenzy?
Armada was the best series
>>719365056Fantastic gameToo bad about the small robot roster
>>719366232oh but getting shot and a million times only to just be able to hang back for a few seconds to regen your health is perfectly fine? thats not real transformers if you ask me.
>>719366357Rumble is the purble one and Frenzy is the red one. I don't have any reasoning to justify this, it's my personal preference.
>>719365847all of those except I think trypticon did happen in the cartoon those games were a prequel to, thoughbeit.
>>719366357Rumble is the blue one.
>>719366276What button do you press for air dashing in those games?
I enjoy War heavily, sorta dislike Fall because of all the choices it was forced to make to be more consistent with the aligned continuity/PrimeDark spark was dark spark and all I can say on that is lmfao
>>719366303>Gundams are mechs not robots.so just because they are mechs, its perfectly fine for them?fucking lol. dude you have no idea what youre talking about at this point.well, i guess theres plently of points here where you have no idea what youre talking about.
>>719366390That's the one I grew up on and it irrevocably shaped my opinion on the rest of the franchise for the worse cause starscream was that GOAT in that show and in every other season he's mid at best
>>719366505I don't really remember, I think circle? It's been a while since I touched Fall.
>>719366303>What's the goal?my goal here is to document one anons autistic meltdown about Transformers. this shit is gold.im pretty much convinced you are really THAT autistic over all of this and how right you want to be.
>>719366556All I said is Gundams are mechs not robots. Mechs are designed for different things depending on how they want to be built. Cybertronians are like humans, they are born as they are in their natural form.Now can they adapt a form of a mech? I'd assume so if it was possible?
>>719366653It's autistic to want to play a game from a franchise to not genre break?You'd buy Dragon Ball golfing?
>>719366572Starscream always was Megatron's fuckboy. Any version of him where he is not a backstabbing faggot is wrong
>>719366764nta but yes I WOULD buy Dragon Ball golfing. Genre breaking is fun.
>>719366686>All I said is Gundams are mechs not robotsyes but you said that in response to that other anon which you are basically saying that "big metal things" CAN move fast even though you said they cant.
>>719366586There's a dash only in Fall and it's a dash, not listed as airdash in the manual.
>>719366868So that's the real problem, you don't give a shit. Why even pay for a game about a franchise if you don't want to actually experience the world of it?
>>719366881I'm not the same anon. I should have specified.However, mechs are designed for different functions. Cybertronians don't function like that unless adapting a vehicle form and not all of them can do that.
>>719362546SRPG ala Fire Emblem
>>719366764>You'd buy Dragon Ball golfing?to be honest. yeah, probably.golf itself is fucking boring so if i can play some high speed golf, id play it.also, transformers honestly would be better off as some sort of strategy game. not some generic third person shooter.
Scrolled over this thread and I can't understand why this dude's crying over Devastation's gameplay being stupid or whatever. It's probably how most kids played with their Transformers toys back in the day. Also, emphasis on toys. We're talking about a toy franchise about giant robots that transform into hundreds of different things. Get a fucking grip, man.
>>719362546Armada
>>719367073>transformers honestly would be better off as some sort of strategy gameTransformers Battlegrounds exists anon.
What genre is being broken? Transformers is an action series.
>>719366764>You'd buy Dragon Ball golfing?yeah that sounds coolimagine going kaioken times 4 just to increase your swing by 500 feet or some shit
>>719367075Bitch I'm allowed to disagree. What you the fucking borg? I need to be part of the hivemind and agree blindly? Heaven forbid I have my own opinion.
>>719366948I'm not even the guy you're arguing with. But a different genre doesn't mean you can't experience the world any less. Sometimes they actually let you experience MORE than the norm. And sometimes they're even more successful than the norm.>>719367191Also this.
>>719367231That sounds fucking stupid.
>>719366948but the very first transformer game was a sidescroller platformer.so wouldnt it being a third person shooter be considered "genre breaking"?or does it not count because only (you) are able to decide what genre the transformers games should be? like dude, i get you love those games but it seems like the more you respond to these anons, the more idiotic you sound
>>719365171>TMNT>>TMNT>>>a concept as absurd as fucking mutated turtles turned ninjas shouldn't have aerial combatHoly shit lol I can't tell if this is autism or an aging old fart being an aging old fart, probably both.Either way your taste is dogshit.
>>719367317yeah it does and now I wanna play it
>>719367287It failed to do that though.South Park Stick of Truth and Fractured But Whole are two great examples of feeling like you're involved in the setting.
the genre is... le broken.....
>>719367167yeah but nobody can play that because its genre breaking and can only be played as a third person shooter. i want to make sure I get the TRUE transformers experience like that anon has been spouting.
>>719367368I feel like you're having your own conversation and trialed off into something else because you're too stupid to know how to read.I'm talking about playing a game involving a franchise you illiterate fuck.
Who would you trust to make a good TF game in the year of our Lord, 2025?
>>719365056>>719366416Game was so good for the time (still is?), that boss fight was so surprising for the scale at the time.Also lol at the trans-tism tranon in thread on the loose.
>>719367406What are you even babbling about? You're just saying anything passive aggressive because you can't handle I hate something you like.
>>719362747you will never be a robot or YWNBAR
>>719367243>Heaven forbid I have my own opinion.so you can have your own opinion except for everyone else right? which is why you constantly keep saying youre right and everyone elses opinion about transformers is wrong.you do realize theres other autistic fans JUST LIKE YOU out there. youre not special. lol.you too are part of a hivemind. you just dont know it.
>>719367493Definitely not Splash Damage LOOOOL
>>719365631So you're having issues with your suspension of disbelief because the giant transforming sentient robots are too agile and quick?
>>719367581So according to you, anyone who strongly disagrees with something you're against is a melty.So basically you're not here for actual conversation, you're here to just annoy people.You're not here for socializing, you're here trying to shame someone to submit and conform to your ideals.
This is THE 6th gen Transformers game, and is still excellent to play in the modern era.
>>719367560lol i dont even like devastation. its just typical platinum games slop. im just laughing at how fucking autistic are trying so hard to say how that game sucks but for the wrong reasons.
>>719367684NTAYou're REALLY missing the point.You're just obnoxious with your "well if you think that's weird but not this?" is just a non argument.
>>719365752You don't get to decide what Powerglide can and can't do.
Transformers could benefit from a RTS game.
>>719367735So I'm not allowed to say something you don't agree with? Am I understanding this correctly?
>>719366416>>719367715Alright, alright, I'll play it already!
>>719367735yeah that's why this is so fucking funny, if someone says devastation sucks then whatever, different strokes and all that. but having this much of a meltdown about how it "isn't transformers" is bafflingly retarded
>>719367493Nintendo.Even when they're not making games that appeal to me, I have to admit they put out good games.That being said, I have no clue what they'd do with it, it could turn out very odd.
>>719366764Rad, ironically.Would play the fuck out of that.
>>719367878I'm not wrong though. They just made DMC with Transformers sounds and skin over it. DMC is not Transformers.
>>719367795I've been saying this for years and I can't believe it's never been attempted
>>719367685>you're here trying to shame someone to submit and conform to your ideals.i mean, isnt that what youre basically doing? youre trying to convince people how bad Devastation is because its not "true to transformers" because it plays like a DBZ game and saying how much better War and Fall is. You keep acting all high and mighty because youre not sharing others opinions about the game you hate but you are really just playing yourself. >anyone who strongly disagrees with something you're against is a melty.so basically youre saying "you guys are wrong, you have to agree with me instead!!".get a fucking grip, kid.
>>719367807>Am I understanding this correctly?lol no, you are absolutely not understanding what i said correctly.seems like after reading the thread, you dont understand anything at all. lolall im getting at when im reading the thread is you going "your game sucks! the game i like is better!!"then when someone says "no, your game sucks" you get super defensive and start saying "what? i cant have an opinion?". its mind boggling how fucking dumb you are.
>>719368110No, I am doing what I have been doing and discussing why I dislike it.Mocking and shaming me is never going to convince me or anyone to like something.You get a grip, I'm allowed to not be a part of something I don't agree with.
>>719368282Okay so you did confirm you're going after me with insults and not factual things about the game itself. You're socially retarded.
>>719368287>I am doing what I have been doing and discussing why I dislike it.yes and telling people that THIER opinion is wrong because they like another game.seems like you really dont understand how to converse with real people.
>>719368082It's got the perfect set up you need. Civil war. Two factions. Energon's the main recourse. All the fancy Cybertronian buildings you want. Clear unit types. Could even go the way of Dawn of War 2 if they don't wanna do a traditional full on base building RTS and have it more focused on heroes.
I replayed Fall of Cybertron recently and I must say the Cybertron games have some of the best non-G1 Transformers designs. They all look so cool.
>>719368396I have been sayingMultiple times nowThat the combat in it is not Transformers.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwaeMqUjyhAThis is not Transformers, this is DMC. This is not what I want in a Transformers game involving G1. It completely ruins the experience.
>>719367752I wasn't making a point. While glib, I asked a question.
>>719365056Honestly I liked the rag doll from the autobots more than anything
Cybertron prepares for civil war. Battle lines are being drawn. You have a choice, the only choice that matters:AUTOBOT or DECEPTICON, /v/?
>>719368869Decepticon, I completely understand where Megatron is coming from and why he would behave the way he does. Humans have that exact same nature.
>>719368940Plus he tore the previous false leader in half with his bare hands so yeah he's pretty cool
>>719367493I genuinely think RGG would make a damn good skybound-based game.
>>719368996Replace Energon with oil. It all makes sense.
>>719369086
>>719369134I just spat my drink
>>719368869I'd say I'd join the Decepticons because I think Megatron is totally right, but all the other Decepticons are kind of assholes, so I don't know. Might as well just say fuck it and become a mercenary.
>>719368579Agreed, the designs are really good
>>719369329>but all the other Decepticons are kind of assholesHow dare you accuse Soundwave of such a thing. Soundwave is best bot.
>>719368996You know I never really got why Optimus tried stopping him from killing sentinel.
>>719369412At best he'd regard you with cold, synthesized indifference, which is about as friendly as it gets with 'cons.
>>719369579Hippie shit
>>719369634Nonsense, Soundwave is loyal. If I was going to war, my first pick would be Soundwave.Who is the Soundwave of the Autobots? Bumblebee? Not even remotely comparible.
>>719369579I think Orion/Optimus fully intended on executing Sentinel, but under lawful proceedings after a new government had been established. He told D-16 not to be like Sentinel, who offed his enemies for personal reasons without due process.
>>719369579not being a TF lorefag I'm gonna assume it's a "if you kill him you're just like him" thing
>>719369932You can't really blame D-16, though. He idolized Sentinel, only to then find out the truth about him. Not only is Sentinel a fake Prime, he also took their cogs, and was giving away the Energon that the miners, including D-16 and Orion, risked their lives for. You can't blame him for letting his emotions take control. I do think Orion/Optimus had a point, but it's obvious that D-16 wasn't going to agree after all that happened.
>>719370574Oh for sure, there's no situation where D-16 walks away. He wanted blood, er, energon. But maaaybe if Orion had just been like "Cool down and I promise you'll get to be the one to execute him later, but we gotta start on the right foot." things would be different.
>>719366531Surprisingly entertaining. I like how the plane combiner separated to avoid taking hits but then the car combiner exploited that.
>>719369634Maybe prowl rolewise but in the most literal sense blaster.
>>719372052Meant for >>719369739
>>719372052>blaster.......
>>719372052>>719372112The decepticons have a very consistent Big Four, but the autobots can't decide who their top-brass is. Jazz and Prowl and commonly the right-hand bots, but the other two are always uncertain. They should be foils to the top decepticons.
>>719372535Decepticons are actual warriors, Autobots are just random people slapped together who use their emotions rather than logic.Megatron wants energon for his people, Optimus wants to save the human race regardless his own people will suffer.
>>719362546Tranny game
>>719362546It's definitely not picrel but you should all still know your place and kneel to it.
>>719362883>There are only 3 (three) good Transformers gameswrong
>>719373419What is this?
>>719373419Scuba is so handsome and cool
>>719373419Japan knew about Beast Wars in 1999?
>>719373579They had two beast wars anime series and a movie
>>719373624I'm sorryWaitWhat?
>>719373645Bro. You need to see the Beast Wars NEO OP that is a godlike song.
>>719362610/thred
>>719362747He's valid
>>719373710What is the name of those two anime series and the movie called? Any idea how I can see those?Do you know what this is? >>719373419This is blowing my mind right now, I had no idea about this stuff. Did Japan ever see the Beast Wars from the west?
>>719373645After the original Beast Wars cg cartoon aired in japan they made Beast Wars Second and Beast Wars Neo. They also had a short crossover OVA where Primal meets the crew of Beast Wars Second. The animes weren't super related to the original cg cartoon and were aimed at a younger demographic. When the original Beast Wars was localized for japanese they made it a lot more silly and lighthearted, so they had the anime series match in tone.
>>719373478>>719373787Duel Fight Transformers Beast Wars: Beast Warriors' Strongest Decisive Battlea Beast Wars gameboy fighting game that has characters from the 3 series that released at the time, Beast Wars, Beast Wars II, and Beast Wars Neo
>>719373903So Second and Neo were related though? i can't believe I just now have heard about this stuff.
>one of the coolest looking Transformers>not playable in any good game (afaik)It's not fair.
>>719373787They had a dub that butchered it like how our dubs butcher anime. And because no one wanted Beast Machines, they made their own with the toys that weren't in the show and a Leo Convoy (they called Optimus Convoy) called Beast Wars 2nd. Then they made a sequel: Beast Wars NEO, full of new toys they made, like Big Convoy and Magmatron.
WFC and WOF are such solid AA games it's crazy. Solid campaign, solid competitive multiplayer, and a fun ass survival mode to play with the bros. Escalation mode was so much fun, I prefer War's version of it personally just because you could choose any boy and it's much more difficult due to having no round cap
>>719373903actually it happened after the first season aired but before season 2 which is funny since II pretty much predicted the twist of Beast Wars and the final story also involved stopping a ship called The Nemesis
>>719374027>And because no one wanted Beast MachinesThat's not fair, yeah it was a huge sudden turn it was still cool and engaging. Especially the plot twists.
>>719373991Nah none of the japanese stuff really relates to the original show in any meaningful way.
>>719373991The western TF fanbase barely cares about the anime that was brought over here. It makes sense that most of us know jack shit about God Ginrai and Sixshot's son.
>>719374168Yeah but I atleast see and come across discussions about the other series. I have never heard about Beast Wars anime let alone two of them and a OVA.
>>719374127I meant the two animes being related.
>>719374127no Neo was a sequel to II but both take place thousands of years after the future of Beast Wars
>>719374068That does look like a ship that would be called Nemesis.
>>719366357Frenzy is blue, Rumble is red.I played the old 2008 G1 mobile game as a kid and I distinctly remember Frenzy being the blue one, so FIBRIR stuck with me.
>>719366531I recently bought Dead Zone, apparently it's menasor's left armIt's really cool, kinda want to buy all the others
>>719374234As someone who watched a bunch of 2nd, there's not a lot to say. It's a decent kids' toy commercial show. I like the Squid guy I forgot the name of. He is cool. Also, the music is great.
Between the shitty Bay movies, lack of cartoons outside of that one that tried to make actual non-binary robots, the One movie and no games what can even be said on the current status of the IP? Hasbro seems to mismanage it alot, but thats just par for the course with most of their IP's anyways.
>>719374391>It's a decent kids' toy commercial show.So it's good is what you're saying.
>>719374302Yes but not really in a way that matters all that much. Most of the NEO is goofy episodic stuff where the two factions race to get to the energy first and then some stuff comes up relating it to Second towards the end.>>719374391Scuba is the squid. That's my boy. But yeah I feel about the same way. Just kind of a cozy kids toy commercial. I honestly couldn't get all the way through NEO though.
>>719374450That Beastwars one was OK though.Why can't they just make a live action based on the 1984 movie? Instead we get pussy as shit.
>>719374687>unironically asking for a live-action remake of a perfectly good animated movie in 2025How was Lilo & Stitch?
>>719374450I've heard that the comics are doing well these days but I'm not sure. I'm kind of looking forward to the new movie by Josh Cooley, but I just don't like live-action Transformers honestly. It's one of the few instances where I think animation is better.
>>719375041>I've heard that the comics are doing well these days but I'm not sureWho told you this?
>>719375286People on the internet, so not really trustworthy, but looking it up, Skybound seems to be selling pretty well.
Will any modern Transformers media ever achieve this level of kino?https://youtu.be/T1img3-8lTc?t=261
>>719376424It'd require at least 30 episodes of build up, which the average modern show generally isn't able to afford having, so nah
Remind me why Megatron transforms into a pistol again? I can comprehend a tank or even a t-rex, but a freaking pistol lol
>>719376730Think it as him putting all of his energy and power into his weapons to shoot a much stronger shot than he would normally be able to.The real reason is to sell toys lol.
>>719376730Because he's the bad guy and guns are bad. But it's fucking gold if you try to do something with it.
>>719376424I was going to post that scene of Soundwave sacrificing himself but youtube removed it rip.
>>719362546PS2 one was pretty smooth.
Thoughts on the One movie?
>>719376928It had some wonky designs, but it was great.
>>719376928It's too goofy
TRANS FORMER(men) holy shit
>>719376730His original toy turned into a gun, that's pretty much it, american laws later pushed them to turn him into actual vehicles but he still transforms into a gun in comics most of the time, skybound in particular finally gave the form a reason to be, as it allows Megatron to mindrape Starscream into having to shoot the thing against his will, also it's just a little tank with a handle, I find that very funny
>>719374450Skybound's doing it damndest to carry the brand right now, and yes, the pic is an apt comparison. Studio Series/Generations are also okay for the most part, the occasional QC issues and extortionate pricing notwithstanding
>>719376928I don't like the faces. I loved everything else about the movie. It is one of the best Transformers movies.
how do I play war and fall of cybertron on steam's dick
is WALL-E better than optimus prime?
>>719377260Not exactly a high bar to jump over.
>>719377326No, he'd get shot too easily.
It is my firm belief that people don't hate hasbro enough.
>>719377260I agree. I think that the facemask designs should be the default look, it looks great.
>>719377387Kids don't pay attention to that shit. Parents are too busy to worry about shit. Manchildren care too much about that shit.
>>719377281Try downloading them at Myabadonware and using proton.
>>719363398>you have shit taste>likes copy paste 3rd person shooters with absolutely zero (0) depth to gameplay.
>>719363710>never watched transformers where Optimus Prime has literally fought in space
>>719377445Kids and parents don't pay attention because they don't fucking make anything anymore.Hasbro let One flop, seemingly on purpose, decided to stop making movies and instead focus on getting kids to their IPs through games, and then canceled the upcoming game (it would be ass anyways let's be real), and have nothing upcoming at all. And I don't like your implication that if I give a shit about the series I'm a manchild.
>>719377558Not everything have to be some ground breaking next level game that leaves you speechless and in awe.It's a game based on a show meant to sell children toys for fuck sakes. Wake the fuck up you moron.If you indulge in junk food, you are a hypocrite to your own philosophy.
>>719377610I hate to tell you this but unless you got stock in a company, why care?Don't like something? Don't buy it. Pretty simple. It's sad I have to explain that to you.
>>719377663>projectionI'm not reading all that. Go play fortnite, kid.
>>719377727Odd considering you're the one who wanted my reply only to call me a kid while acting childish when you can't handle the reality.
>>719377716>why careBecause I care about the series, and when the series does well due to horrific mismanagement, things stop getting made entirely. >don't like something? Don't buy itI already don't buy things I don't like, and I buy things I do like, what does that have to do with anything here?
>>719377610There's Cyberworld which is a web show about a bunch of Transformers trapped in a video game. I would be into those toys if they had elbows. Also, Japan doesn't want that, so they're making this instead.
>>719362546DevastationIt's a massive love letter propelled by senior staff be willing to work on a low budget game just to have fun making it
>>719377784It's simple, you whining anonymously means jack shit to a company. No real grown up gives a flying fuck about what a toy company is doing unless it's some weirdo perv shit or propaganda.
>>719377763Bro i just called you out for your shit taste. Calm down.
>>719375041>>719375286It's comics so the bar of success isn't high but Kirkman marketing and getting big name talent (relative to comics) really helped a lot
>>719377610I thought they canceled two different games?
>>719377841Why are you running defense for hasbro? Are you getting paid to be here or are you being a shill jackass for free?
>>719377853You literally claimed you didn't care to read my reply because you have the maturity of a teenager.
>>719377948Telling you to grow up a little is not defending anything. It's just pathetic to think I'll stop buying something I see I want to buy just so you can have your revenge about whatever the hell it is you're so upset about.
>>719378017>dude why are you complaining lol? why do you care? Just let the corpos mismanage the things you care about to death!Last reply from me, you cretin.
The game boy color Beast Wars fighter
>>719378121See? You keep yammering but refuse to even address what exactly you're triggered about. Why would I not buy a hasbro product? I don't know you. I don't care about you. You're nobody to me.You can choke on a peanut right now and die all the while my life will continue to go as it's intended to. I would have no pity or remorse for you because you never mattered to me or anyone else that doesn't know you.You're a drop in a bucket.
>>719377970>you have the maturity of a teenager>He said fervently over a children's toy franchise
>>719378257When you admit you don't even want to read a reply you're openly admitting you refuse to hear the other person regardless of the subject. That is something a child does.
>>719378325Right now I'm farming (you)'s. So please keep replying.
>>719378383See? Childish antics. You have the maturity of a teenager.
>>719362546I know Bayformers is overrated but this game while just a quick tie in. Is pretty good for what it is all that holds it back is cut content which can mostly be restored through modding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkp0yKAm8t0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAojIfTYgJc
>>719378417And there's another. Please come back!
>>719378525You're obviously craving the attention your parents never gave you. I'd pity you but you're a grown up now.
>>719363873>>719363909Nice.
>>719362546Why has there never been a racing game based on the Transformers?
>>719379005I mean what would even be the point if you're constantly a vehicle if it's a race?Also not all Transformers are fast vehicles. Some even fly. How would you even balance that?
Are there any boat Transformers?
>>719379005You mean like this?
>>719379090I guess you'd simply have to narrow the roster to racing vehicles. Though it would be kind of funny to have big rigs like Optimus in the mix. Sure it would be very tricky since a good deal have aerial alt modes. It could also incorporate their weapons to get ahead of one another? I had briefly discussed this in a thread on /co/. Their proposal was this...>"my pipe dream would be just plain racing without weapons desugimme a story mode where you're just some human with your own car challenging transformers with pre and post race cutscenes and it'd instantly earn my money"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlUv8ZyuzeUbut being realistic i'd imagine it would involve a damage model like flatout plus weapon and debuff pickups you can use to wreck othersdon't forget to throw in modes other than races>regular old racing with or without weapons>time attack mode>battle arena from rush 2049>capture the flag from midnight club>a handful more not listedthen for the sake of roster just include transformers from all the different universes for whoever's possible with their own stats>G1, UT, animated, prime, etc.>knock out and tracks are fast but have low health>breakdown and optimus are slower but are much more durable for battle modes
>>719379438This image confuses me. Are they fighting while others are racing?
>>719379438I was not aware of this. Some kind of app game if I were to guess?
>>719379346There are several like Seaspray, that one triple changer that becomes an aircraft carrier and a jet, and Tidal Wave.
>>719379515>that one triple changer that becomes an aircraft carrier and a jetWait what? It becomes a jet and a carrier?
>>719368869Decepticon but switch sides once Megatron goes off the deep end and mainlining dark energon.I want the current cybertronian system to fall and for our people to return to greatness, but infecting the planet with electrical AIDS isn't the way to do it.Optimus is the best one to lead cybertron into a new future once the old system is gone, but we need Megatron to tear it down first.
>>719379618Yeah, I found him https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Broadside_(G1)
>>719362546wfc/focbonus: they're abandonware now
>>719379710The first thing I read is>Broadside is a huge loser.I fucking love how unhinged the Transformers wikia is.
>>719379514>I was not aware of this.I'm not surprised. It only has 62 reviews on Steam. I only found out about it recently myself. Reminds of me that other RTS game that nobody talked about anywhere.
>>719368869The winning team.
>>719362883you would really think a series being from the 80's it would have at least had a dozen or so passable games. There's all the disney games on the nes/snes/genesis, there's tmnt, heck there's stuff like jurassic park that had a half dozen games that were well-received and that was from the 90's. Transformers by all accounts should have had more than a famicom platformer and whatever that other guy linked that was on the gbc. I mean looking it up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7jR2W1_eRo there's like 4 or 5 games released before 2000, lmao
>>719365798trypticon and metroplex wrestle and throw each other thru the air in g1
>>719379815>wikiaWikia is shit tfwiki is a based autistic website
>>719380435Look at this video. >>719368584
>>719367858if thread is still up let us know how u liked it
>>719378440ah yes when movie games were good and frequent
>>719376928Slow start, but once D and Orion find out the truth it gets really fucking good. Best in the franchise good. keegan michael key and B is probably the worst part of it.
>>719380732I remember back in my childhood I was very ignorant to which games were good or not. I always flocked towards tie in games for whatever reason. Sometimes I'd be in for something good but more often than not it would disappoint. Although there are a few tie in games that I remember fondly. The Spongebob games, Ratatouille, Open Season, Kung Fu Panda, and Transformers. Wild choices I know.
>>719362546Armada for PS2

Does anyone else remember this charming piece of shit?
>>719373387>>719384702https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MbANrEbD2AThat game had a kickass soundtrack
>>719362546Transformers the movie (DS)Transformers War and Fall of Cybertron (DS/Console)Transformers Devastation
>>719384786>Transformers the movie (DS)this was the best, I don't know how they made it so fun. The rotf sequels were alright but them swapping the camera controls to the lr buttons was a mistake.
>>719364734found the platinumdmcucktranny lmao
>>719384786>>719384809I only ever played the console version of Transformers the movie game. Which I enjoyed even if it was kind of basic. But I am suprised how much liberty they took for the DS port. Makes me wish there were more Transformers games where you played as your own Autobot or Decepticon.
>Tataki (2003)An objectively bad beat em up, but it's very endearing in a Resident Evil way. In fact, it's dubbed by the same Anglo-Jap studio that dubbed RE1. I think Barry voices Ultra Magnus or something.>Armada PS2 (2004)An underrated gem. Its ragdoll physics engine is janky but charming.>Bayformers (2007)Also objectively bad, but endearingly janky. Funny how they somehow managed to get Shia Labeouf and Megan Fox. It's also the first time Frank Welker reprised his role as Megatron in 20 years.>ROTF (2009)An adequate third-person-shooter. Doesn't excel at anything but it's still nostalgic.>WFC (2010)Absolute peak Transformers.>FOC (2012)A very good sequel, though I prefer WFC.>Devastation (2015)Another kino Platinum game, though it feels unfinished in how it's lacking in a Decepticon campaign.
>>719384893>where you played as your own Autobot or DecepticonGod I want a full-blown Transformers RPG like that.
>>719384702This has one of the coolest trailers and I remember being excited as fuck because it was supposed to get an American version (IGN literally reviewed it) and I would search everywhere for it as a kidBeing able to play as the majority of the G1 cast would've been enough for 11 year old me
>>719385038>Bayformers (2007)>Also objectively bad, but endearingly janky.Maybe it's rose tinted lenses but I wouldn't say it's objectively bad. Definitely lower on the bar compared to other TF games. Still even compared to other movie tie in games, there are far worse.
>>719385071Me too. Though I wonder what iteration would be best? G1, Unicron Trilogy, TF Aligned? Who knows, still it would be a neat concept. Deciding which faction your a part of fighting alongside classic characters in an orignal campaign. Choosing your various vehicle alt modes. If only it were real.
>>719362546is there a beast wars game
>>719385170Yeah I guess for a movie tie-in game it's pretty good. Compared to something like that shitty Kung Fu Panda game. But I remember, even as a kid, thinking how weird and janky it was
>>719385448>Compared to something like that shitty Kung Fu Panda game.Damn bro! I liked that one too, at least the PS2 version. No hard feelings but yeah the first Bayformers game was a bit janky. And there were some missions that were infuriating. Like the one at Hoover Dam where you fighting an endless swarm of drones while waiting for the Allspark to shrink. Then halfway through Megatron blasts Bumblebee with an unavoidable attack. Though if you ask me a real shitty movie tie in game I remember playing back in the day was Monster House.
>>719362546What's the Project Nortubel of Transformers?
>>719385170Bro I bought that shit on release and no TF nostalgia goggles stopped me from refunding that hot garbage. Unless you're thinking of ROTF which at least had multiplayer and cool G1 easter eggs, the first bayformers tie in had no good qualities other then Frank Welker giving Megatron an actual voice, which at least makes the movie Megatron seems fucking appallingly awful
>>719385298There was a GBA one linked in the thread and there's an obscure PS1 adventure game simply titled "Beast Wars" which is obscure crap but also kind of fun in the sense it provides the bare minimumThen there's another PS1 fighting game called Beast Wars Transmetals, I fucking loved renting that shit. Very short but definitely delivers if you like the show and fighting games
>>719386820>the first bayformers tie in had no good qualities other then Frank Welker giving Megatron an actual voice, which at least makes the movie Megatron seems fucking appallingly awfulIt's funny how Welker got to finally reprise the role after all those years but only in the tie in game. And it wasn't until the third or fourth movie in the Bayverse where he got to play Megatron on the big screen, so strange. Anyhow, I guess for me it was my first experience with an "open world" environment where I could drive around and have fun in. I was a kid so GTA was not on the table at the time.

>>719374450Earthspark is over (kinda got cut with several plotlines hanging as well apparently), now we have Cyberworld where everyone has been banished to Fortnite.
>>719390415It's some /co/ faggot, just ignore it, he does the exact same thing in TF threads over there.
Anywho, does anyone know what Hashro is planning in the future since the latest AAA Transformers game got canceled? I know they’ve given up on funding future film projects after Transformers One bombed. A shame cause it was a good movie at least something different from the Bayverse but alas.
>>719362546the one from ps2
>>719391772This >>719367715that >>719378440or this? >>719373387
>>719391575They shut down some random roblox game cause it was the only thing people had left to play and it had MTX but that's besides the point so hey, at least another game is not out of the realm of possibility, it's definitely not coming anytime soon though.
What are the odds Microsoft gets the rights and re-releases War/Fall
>>719362546I'm playing the PS3 Cybertron games soon, my friend says they're good
>>719393445Next to none, Microsoft doesn't do shit with any of the IPs it buys.
>>719386878 Beast Wars Transmetals was absolute peak "rental weekend" energy. That weird-ass announcer voice still lives rent-free in my head-“Megatron! TERRORIZE!” Game was jank as hell, but I’ll die on the hill that it had one of the coolest cel-shaded styles back then. Also, the way it let you transform mid-fight and chain moves? Like it wanted to be a fighting game AND a mech sim but barely held it together. Still better than any mobile TF crap we’re stuck with now.
>>719362546Bump

>>719366782Lame
>>719396167Like Oliver Stone he was too based for Kikewood
>>719362546I remember liking the adaptations of the first and second Bay movies. It was like GTA but you played as a Transformer.
>>719362546The DS 2007 Decepticons game is underrated. The story is actually pretty good and the combat and gameplay feels like San Andreas on the DS.
