+David Dalmatian This is literally the first thing I thought when I started this up, like geez optimus its not like your team was about to be crushed too.
+vampuricknight1 It's hype but it's transformers only in name. While I don't think it ruined anything, High Noon did Transformers better, as far as games go.
*Megatron: Then stand back, Starscream, and watch me tame it...As I have tamed you.* Dammit! Not even 2 minutes and already my fanfics are writing themselves!
Don't worry guys even if this game turns out great the transformers franchise will be brought back down again in the next movie. Just like with the HIgh Moon games
+Mandrid Hugh Well High Moon screwed themselves over with the Deadpool game. The movies actually help the franchise because it gets Hasbro the money to make the stuff fans actually care about.
Wait a sec...people are complaining that this game ruined transformers?! This looks friggin *amazing*, who would complain about this?! *WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!*
As a long time Transformers watcher back in the olden times of the 1980s, I approve of this game heartily. Perfectly action oriented without degenerating into Michael Bay schlock. Platinum once again showing the scrubs how it's done.
+Sitromxe In this one, ONE mind you, instance I'll let the hella slide. If any game in the universe can be called "Hella Fun" un-ironically it's a G-1 Transformers game made by Platinum.
You can tell they're rushing these uploads out the door. I'm no expert but the Mario maker video had some random black outs and this is missing a god dam intro song! Am I nitpicking? I'll just shut up.
Zolbek I think single handedly pitching Galvatron through Unicron and ultimately killing the Planet Bot itself, saving everyone, earned him a little slack after his mistakes as Hot Rod.
I just want the final boss fight to be Hot Rod (or was it Hot Shot?) using the matrix to blast the shit out of Unicron, while 'You Got The Touch' is playing in the background.
+Richie Wood The closest we ever got to that was the very underrated PS2 Transformers by Atari. Although it is based on Armada, it is arguably the best Transformers game. Sadly due to technical limitations Unicron had no Robot Mode. It was still awesome to fight him.
+ImploreYouto Reconsider Doesn't make for much of a cool 1v1 boss fight where you keep transforming and doing all these sick robot/vehicle combos and then megatron tries to copy you and just turns into a big dumb gun that can't do anything
Megatron has a somewhat understandable motivation brough up in...comics I think? Basically- Cybertron was originally a SUPER caste based system (cause he- robots made by the planet for specific jobs). But they have human like minds, so that sucked, obviously. Megatron was a super charismatic gladiator that was forced to kill friends (so the suffering of the caste system was VERY personal; also makes perfect sense with the character), Optimus was a librarian who was all "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" and filled with sympathy over the situation. So they set out to argue to the noble cast to cahnge things, and they were given a quest- and at the end Optimus was given prime (noble) status. Optimus wanted to use his new role to change things...Megatron thought he was sold out and betrayed by Optimus. So he got super butt hurt and decided to just get all of the dissatisfied masses and say "You know what guys? Thus sucks- lets rip off our chains and TAKE WHAT WE WANT FOR OURSELVES". So that is super interesting- Megatron is a fallen hero, consumed with the pain of old wounds and the jealousy that originally brought him to seek justice. And he still thinks he serves justice- he believes that, rather than being bound by arbitrary morals and codes, the world should be ruled by those willing to grasp their destiny with their own hands.
+Lemeres Side note- I think Steven Universe might be just transformers where they make you WANT to see the dumb human side stories, and they make you realize that these wars have real consequences (because the basic format of the series is- Mcaguffin-> Decepticons want the Macguffin > Autobots can't let that happen > Big fight the destroys who evers back yard they are fighting in > autobots win, victory over the ashes. That is what happened to cyber tron, isn't it? ) Side note- Look up the Big Picture episode "Nothing Gold can Stay" reviewing the G1 episode that lampshades this destructive cycle; basically, the macguffin is in BAMBI'S FOREST, and everyone blows the shit out of it, and the autobots feel all good about themselves over the burning remains of Bambi's mom, basicaly. And you realize the problem with this war, on both sides.
***** I guess, but even with the price in mind, it was really just "fine." Which, when it comes from a developer like Platinum, who has made some of the best action games ever, is more of an insult than a compliment. I don't know, it just felt very limited, not as smooth, not well written, not as replayable, and short, even for a Platinum game. And I get that the last one can sort of be written off by the price, but the other points are still valid. It's still decent, but I have high expectations from Platinum, and that's the first time they weren't met. Then Woolie and Liam go "No, it's awesome, reviewers just don't get character-action games," even though Bayonetta 2 had just come out to universal critical acclaim.
+Travis Hill Jesus Christ I had a mini freak out when I saw your name and though "When did I make this account?! Why is he saying what I would have said?!?"
"You can't get much sicker than Platinum getting on your IP." And then Mutants in Manhattan happened. Thanks for keeping the lie-train rolling, Woolie.
To be fair, Platinum was given a turnaround of less than a full year, which would've been OK, had they not been also forced to shoehorn in multiplayer, a thing that has only been in two other games of theirs (Bayo 2 and Anarchy Reigns, which took 4 years each to make)
Ruining Transformers? Until this moment I hadn't even seen anything from Transformers I liked! This game makes me want to actually know who or what all these robots are.
Omg i knew that the game would be good just from the fact that it's from Platinum. I'm not old enough to be really familiar with the Transformers cartoon and so i thought i would buy this at a later time. BUT DAMN YOU ZAIBATSU! You remembered me why Platinum are the saviours of (character) action games :D THIS GAME LOOKS SO HYPE I CAN'T CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT BY ONLY LOOKING AT IT! I MUST BUY AND PLAY IT!
I know about Saur. He legitimized Godhand back in the day with his sick system explanations and helped write the Bayonetta resource books and they were super sick. Really wish the guy got the credit he deserves.
"Mission 1, motherfucker!" Meanwhile, "Mission 17" up in the top right corner. Is this an example of Woolie lying or not being able to read? The world may never know.
Was there any site in particular where it was claimed that this somehow ruins transformers G1? Because if it's just some nerds here and there saying that... why even be salty about it? You can find a nerd claiming that any given change is ruining any given franchise, if you look hard enough.
This looks as though it's fixing everything that Bayformers fucked up. I can't remember the last time I was so hype about anything to do with Transformers.
It's because they said they personally know Transformers fans who said it looks lame and are disappointed with the lack of shooting. Also the fast speed. Transformers fans aren't that great.
+Nagato Uzumaki I can only presume that when the Bayformers' movies came out, there were some fans that let go while the survivors only clung tighter, turning hobby into obsession.
***** Unfortunately not everyone is rational. When a fan sees a franchise moving away from the reason they love it, they'll generally automatically rule that change as a step in the wrong direction.
For a second I thought Liam was talking about Derrick Wyatt's Mystery Incorporated designs for Scooby-Doo, which puzzled me because it's pretty much the same style from TFA, which is used on this thumbnail. So I decided to look it up.... FUCK YOU LIAM FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH GAAAAAAAAWD MY EYES THEY BURN.
i just realized, in the top right corner it actually says what mission it is.. Woolie is just like MISSION ONE FUCKERS while its actually Mission 17. Example: 43:28
+Large Rock +Zagardal I think Woolie is probably like me in that I think of them as Missions because of Devil May Cry. Bayonetta calls them Chapters, Wonderful 101 calls them Operations, etc. but to me they are still Missions.
I really am liking what Hasbro is doing with the new Combiners since that look miles better than the Fall of Cybertron Bruticus but I don't like the practice of them charging more for less plastic.
Man, I love how platinum constantly shits gold I think the only game that they developed that wasn't amazing was Legend of Korra, only because it wasn't polished enough fuckin can't wait to get this game
You guys do better Advertising for Platinum Games than their publishers. Seriously. If I wasn't a huge fucking PG fan then I probably wouldn't have known about this game.
So this game looks super awesome and I'm really interested in getting it, but I feel like there's something wrong with it that I can't see yet. Like, I'm worried I'll find out it has really horrible bugs later on in the game or it's way too short to justify the price. From people who would know, should I get this supposedly hype ass fighting robot simulator?
+Dr Caramel Do provide a compelling reason for that statement. If history's taught us anything it's that a developer's name is the safest thing to bet on, infinitely more so than publisher names or franchise titles. Platinum has proven again and again that their games are really cool and that they play well, and they only keep using the lessons from their previous games to build on future projects which means they're always improving. Until that changes (if it ever does) i see no reason to not love Platinum.
Ulquiorra4sama but staring at main menu and going "YO! Platinum" for three times is to fanboy-ish. And being a fanboy is always bad because it blinds you.. And about that "developer's name is the safest thing to bet on". Yeah, but it doesn't mean that they can't fuck it up.
You guys saw that fire chase scene with megatron, right? RIGHT?!?!?!???!!!!!!!!!! That straight up looked like G1 transformers animated in the style of Transformers Armada. I need this game in my body right now
+mkatapodis2 I get that Undertale is hype as shit, but you want more of THEIR playthrough of it? really?...and it especially sucks cause they aren't even that far yet.
You guys are THE biggest nerds I have ever seen! And I mean that in the most respectful way possible. I grew up watching Transformers, G.I. Joe, TMNT (my fav), He-Man, Thundar the Barbarian (I had a crush on Ucla. If you know of whom I speak then you know that might be disturbing), ect. I was the only girl in my class that could go toe to toe with any boy on knowledge about the Transformers. Now that I'm old I've forgotten almost everything. 😐
Ok, so whoever said this is ruining transformers needs to take their heads out from their collective asses. Highmoon brought back transformers and made them cool again, but Micheal Bay and his movies and movie tie-in games were ruining this franchise. Platinum made this hype-ass game that looks amazing. I just hope that if Highmoon is making a new transformers game, then I hope it's good. FoC kind of dropped the ball a tiny bit. On a side note, the only other game where you cannibalize gear to make one weapon better would be Darksiders II. It's the first thing that comes to my mind and I can't think of another that has this style of gear leveling up.
Actually Undertale can wait a bit. This is hype as fuck.
+fug figgen My thoughts exactly! I really wanted Undertale, but this makes up for it completely!
Lol need some emotional rest from Undertale ;)
+fug figgen True, after all, freedom is the right of all sentient beings.

"Autobots, I am alright."
Good guy Prime.
Kojima would be proud
+David Dalmatian It looked like a really obvious missed cue. "Prime, we're cut off! Do you copy?" was probably supposed to play there first.
+David Dalmatian Don't worry everyone. I didn't die.
+Bhazor Well considering it's Optimus we're talking about that's a very common issue.
+David Dalmatian This is literally the first thing I thought when I started this up, like geez optimus its not like your team was about to be crushed too.
This is the sickest shit. Please do a full LP.
+Crallium Agreed, Also how could anyone think this ruins Transformers... its literally the best thing I've seen from transformers since Beast Wars.
+vampuricknight1 Michael Bay fans, Albeit Transformers 1 was okay.
I second this. Hell yeah.
+Crallium Its kinda meh for me.
+vampuricknight1 It's hype but it's transformers only in name. While I don't think it ruined anything, High Noon did Transformers better, as far as games go.
*Megatron: Then stand back, Starscream, and watch me tame it...As I have tamed you.*
Dammit! Not even 2 minutes and already my fanfics are writing themselves!

All we need now is Platinum to make a Power Ranger game and life is complete
+Lee Birch if that happens and if i was a child again my tiny heart would not take it
Can it be Time Force. That was my favourite.
+Nagato Uzumaki Can it be both!!?
+Lee Birch can we not do ALL the things?
Power Rangers, Ronin Warriors, basically any sentai
Remember when Michael Bay put giant iron balls in Devastator ??
fucking Bay....
Are you serious? When was that?
+Nagato Uzumaki revenge of the fallen
+Kido木戸
It's so funny, though!
.......*not!*
+Kido木戸 I am directly below enemy scrotum.
+Kido木戸 Who's Michael Bay again? I really can't seem to remember the guy who ruined Transformers for me....
Don't worry guys even if this game turns out great the transformers franchise will be brought back down again in the next movie. Just like with the HIgh Moon games
+Mandrid Hugh Godamnit its so true it hurts
+Mandrid Hugh There will be four more subsequent movies throughout the next decade so... we have that to look forward to.
+Mandrid Hugh Well High Moon screwed themselves over with the Deadpool game. The movies actually help the franchise because it gets Hasbro the money to make the stuff fans actually care about.

+Nemesis yeah between Prime and RID, there's plenty of great Transformers content for fans who dislike the movies

This looks friggin *amazing*, who would complain about this?!
*WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!*
Go, Platinum. Let the legend come alive!
*Cut to a shot of the entire Platinumgames development team all piled onto a single horse.*
Pat, this isn't ruining Transformers. This is ruining everything that was pretending to be Transformers over the last decade.
They were talking about friends they know that say that.
+Nagato Uzumaki Oh well okay then
TFP was great, though.
Man, 10 years suffering the Bayverse
As a long time Transformers watcher back in the olden times of the 1980s, I approve of this game heartily. Perfectly action oriented without degenerating into Michael Bay schlock. Platinum once again showing the scrubs how it's done.

+kmoney890 Clearly you need Rodimus Prime in the game for that. Imagine how his Winnebago alt mode would control in this??
+pious83 No, we don't need Rodimus in this game
+kmoney890 You can't play "You Got The Touch" in the first chapter of the game! That's just poor form.

I think single handedly pitching Galvatron through Unicron and ultimately killing the Planet Bot itself, saving everyone, earned him a little slack after his mistakes as Hot Rod.

My favorite obscure Transformer would either be Chromedome or Sixshot.
Sixshot is fucking rad!
I just want the final boss fight to be Hot Rod (or was it Hot Shot?) using the matrix to blast the shit out of Unicron, while 'You Got The Touch' is playing in the background.
yes.....plz
+Richie Wood The closest we ever got to that was the very underrated PS2 Transformers by Atari. Although it is based on Armada, it is arguably the best Transformers game. Sadly due to technical limitations Unicron had no Robot Mode. It was still awesome to fight him.
no it's Megatron in full power in space.
+Richie Wood After he gets the Matrix he turns into Rodimus Prime. And that would be bitchin'.
+pious83 That game was my childhood cocaine.
Remember when Megatron used to transform into a gun?
+ImploreYouto Reconsider Yes and I'm pissed they didn't keep it for the game.
I was weirded out by that since they're going this hard on G1.
+ImploreYouto Reconsider Doesn't make for much of a cool 1v1 boss fight where you keep transforming and doing all these sick robot/vehicle combos and then megatron tries to copy you and just turns into a big dumb gun that can't do anything
+ImploreYouto Reconsider If I am not crazy, I think I saw a video where he transform into a gun. I think it's from the cinemassacre video.
WFoong98 You're not crazy, in G1 Megatron turns into a pistol.
43:23 It's "Stage Clear", Woolie. Saying that you're still in the first mission with a big "MISSION 17" on the screen is silly.
WOOLIE: Liam, let those tutorial videos play out.
LIAM: Oh let them play out? Okay, no prob.
Proceeds to skip EVERY SINGLE ONE.
+CreepSpark It wouldn't be Liam-sempai if he did otherwise.
Soundless intro! *PERFECT*
Megatron's freaking quote is "Peace through Tyranny!" Thats KINDA noble in a messed up sense right? Right????
Transforming here, I realize
You're just like me
Try to Cyberform historyyyyy~
Pat: its witch time! me: NO its PRIME TIME!
Sooo... is it true that I can never play this game again legally or economically friendly? Cuz I really miss this game now
Super late, but some Game Stops will have this game in stock, but it's all used copies. It's still cheap though, if not cheaper than it used to be.
Same with the War for/Fall of Cybertron games. Big bummer.
Devastator growing is no different than Megatron shrinking in gun form, or Soundwave in Walkman form.
Bumblebee: "Optimus, what are you doing?"
Optimus: "I do combo."
42:36 all i hear is collective consciousness playing in the background
+KuroCartoonist You're really not wrong, my friend. That was what I heard too, but that's really not a bad thing at all.
Wow, this looks fantastic...dammit Platinum just take my money.
+theamazingmaymay123 Oh they will, and they will use it to make something even more hype in the future.
I'll take a Platinum LP w/ underwater Podcast mic ANY DAY
So will we get a full LP of this? Because I think this game totally deserves one!
Finally, more MGSV.
Platinum continues to show why they are one of the greatest developers of all time. Hope this one sells as well as it's quality deserves.
Oh a transformers game you say? Ok cool I guess...
DEVELOPED BY PLATINUM YOU SAY NOW WERE TALKING!!
One shall stand.
One shall fall.
Megatron has a somewhat understandable motivation brough up in...comics I think?
Basically- Cybertron was originally a SUPER caste based system (cause he- robots made by the planet for specific jobs). But they have human like minds, so that sucked, obviously.

So that is super interesting- Megatron is a fallen hero, consumed with the pain of old wounds and the jealousy that originally brought him to seek justice. And he still thinks he serves justice- he believes that, rather than being bound by arbitrary morals and codes, the world should be ruled by those willing to grasp their destiny with their own hands.

And you realize the problem with this war, on both sides.
I don't even care for Transformers. HOW IS THIS THE HYPEST SHIT I'VE EVER SEEN?!
THE PLATINUM EFFECT.

YOU'VE GOT THE PLATINUM POWER

Megatron: This human sound file "Collective Consciousness" is one of the few earthling creations that I find dope as shit
Tbh I want Platinum to make a Gundam IBO based game…. Imagine the fight scenes

"You can't break your toys!"
Maybe, Woolie. But someone else certainly can. You should know.
+Goblin Rat I see no Hulk dolls here, only Transformers. :P

You see no Hulk dolls. And neither did Woolie after that one fateful day.
+Goblin Rat After that one fateful day where Woolie's family piledrived his Hulk doll into oblivion
Everything platinum touches turns to gold or should I say... Platinum
Well, ALMOST everything.

+baylaust it's still at least a B
***** I guess, but even with the price in mind, it was really just "fine."

+baylaust but what Platinum game has great writing?
+baylaust They could always improve in a sequel but this time make it truly open world

“Scrapper and Hook are gonna be back.”
Yeah, many times in this very game itself even.
Truly the Rainbow in the Dark. And of course Peter Cullen is in there. Hell yes!
If you told me there was a game where Optimus Prime was Haggar and Bumblebee was Ken... I would absolutely believe it.
....im not the only one who wants a full lp am i?
First the podcast is underwater, now there's no intro music? THANKS WOOLIE AND LIAM
jk love u bb
"You can't get much sicker than Platinum getting on your IP."
And then Mutants in Manhattan happened. Thanks for keeping the lie-train rolling, Woolie.
To be fair, Platinum was given a turnaround of less than a full year, which would've been OK, had they not been also forced to shoehorn in multiplayer, a thing that has only been in two other games of theirs (Bayo 2 and Anarchy Reigns, which took 4 years each to make)
TheAmazingMisterZ And now Platinum redemmed themselves by making the only Yoko Taro game that actually plays well
I love how hype they always get for a platinum game, Revengence was one of my favorite let's plays they've done, such a great game.
I really wish they did the whole game here. The final battle with Megatron, he and Optimus can compare their speed rushes. Its hype as shit.
Behold! A Good G1 Transformers game...
Cherish the sight of it.
This is ruining Transformers because nothing can be nearly this cool
Can we get a full LP of this like we did with the Korra one? This looks even more hype than the Korra game.
Ruining Transformers? Until this moment I hadn't even seen anything from Transformers I liked! This game makes me want to actually know who or what all these robots are.
Omg i knew that the game would be good just from the fact that it's from Platinum.

I don't get it.
*looks up Motormaster on the Wiki*
"The Motormaster is a retool of the 2011 Optimus Prime model"
OH. OH MY GOD. WHAT.
Alex Hall also he's a boss in the game
Hypest fight is still Devastator plus Menasor.
Fuckin sick. The stats are the same stats that appear on their toy boxes and character cards
+Palademon That's awesome that they stuck to those. I always saved the boxes for my Transformers toys just so I could have the stats.
Holy shit! Transformers have never been so cool! And well animated!
"Mission 1, motherfucker!"
Meanwhile, "Mission 17" up in the top right corner.
Is this an example of Woolie lying or not being able to read? The world may never know.
Anybody getting Anarchy Reigns BRAWL flashbacks?
Was there any site in particular where it was claimed that this somehow ruins transformers G1? Because if it's just some nerds here and there saying that... why even be salty about it? You can find a nerd claiming that any given change is ruining any given franchise, if you look hard enough.
This looks as though it's fixing everything that Bayformers fucked up. I can't remember the last time I was so hype about anything to do with Transformers.
It's because they said they personally know Transformers fans who said it looks lame and are disappointed with the lack of shooting. Also the fast speed. Transformers fans aren't that great.
+Nagato Uzumaki I can only presume that when the Bayformers' movies came out, there were some fans that let go while the survivors only clung tighter, turning hobby into obsession.

+Pleyway I don't think he meant commercially.
THIS GAME HAS THE PLATNIUM TOUCH......THIS GAME HAS THE PLATNIUM POWERRRRRR!!!! YEAH!!!!
does anyone else remember "bots master"
+chaver28 Use to watch that while getting ready for elementary school in the mornings.
I love the 90s, but man, did that intro hurt..
"my name is ninjizz!" yeah bots master

We're the Sportz Boyz and we like making noise!
If this isn't a full LP the fans will riot hard everywhere
For a second I thought Liam was talking about Derrick Wyatt's Mystery Incorporated designs for Scooby-Doo, which puzzled me because it's pretty much the same style from TFA, which is used on this thumbnail.
So I decided to look it up.... FUCK YOU LIAM FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH GAAAAAAAAWD MY EYES THEY BURN.
They remind me of Rick and Morty for some reason
the new designs honestly look like some sort of parody of them from like Family Guy....
I just realized that I was referring to art they had on their Facebook post, not the actual thumbnail.
It's good art too.
imgur.com/2vvIrVJ
+lodestarrobot I've never seen Rick and Mitty, buy I've seen Rick and MORTY :P
i just realized, in the top right corner it actually says what mission it is..
Woolie is just like MISSION ONE FUCKERS while its actually Mission 17.
Example: 43:28
+ZomifiedHam I don't believe you, Woolie could not possibly ever be wrong about anything.
whats funny is, he was technically right about it being the first CHAPTER.
+ZomifiedHam By mission Woolie was meaning more the Chapter. Missions in that context means what fight you're in.
+ZomifiedHam hey... Woolie can't read, go easy on him. he also doesn't know his left from right. he's SPECIAL. not different.
+Large Rock +Zagardal I think Woolie is probably like me in that I think of them as Missions because of Devil May Cry. Bayonetta calls them Chapters, Wonderful 101 calls them Operations, etc. but to me they are still Missions.
Did Megatron just call Starscream a fuckboy?
+David Larkin He should have, because G1 Starscream was the biggest of fuckboys. xD
+AstralMuffin105 A quick image search of G1 Starscream confirms this, and confirms it doubly!!
I really am liking what Hasbro is doing with the new Combiners since that look miles better than the Fall of Cybertron Bruticus but I don't like the practice of them charging more for less plastic.
+Zanzibar Junker 'new' 'NEW'
*****
I don't like the fact that the legends class is like ten bucks now when the previous iteration costed less and had weapons to boot.
Man, I love how platinum constantly shits gold
I think the only game that they developed that wasn't amazing was Legend of Korra, only because it wasn't polished enough
fuckin can't wait to get this game
They put the vehicle ender in Astral Chain and Bayonetta
I have NEVER been sold harder on a videogame in my life. Where the fuck is my wallet?
You guys do better Advertising for Platinum Games than their publishers.
Seriously. If I wasn't a huge fucking PG fan then I probably wouldn't have known about this game.
God this game looks so hype. Now watch it sell worse than a move tie-in. Because Platinum.
"This ruined Transformers!"
...
HAVE YOU SEEN THE ACTION IN THIS GAME?!
Those Drills, those bots... Gurren Platinum. We need this.
So this game looks super awesome and I'm really interested in getting it, but I feel like there's something wrong with it that I can't see yet. Like, I'm worried I'll find out it has really horrible bugs later on in the game or it's way too short to justify the price. From people who would know, should I get this supposedly hype ass fighting robot simulator?
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T LOOK UP THE SCOOBY-DOO REDESIGN!!!!
Jesus... Loving any developer that much is dangerous and stupid.
+Dr Caramel I don't think so. Everyone (at least I hope) is like that for at least one game developer, small or large, indie or not.
+Dr Caramel Do provide a compelling reason for that statement. If history's taught us anything it's that a developer's name is the safest thing to bet on, infinitely more so than publisher names or franchise titles. Platinum has proven again and again that their games are really cool and that they play well, and they only keep using the lessons from their previous games to build on future projects which means they're always improving. Until that changes (if it ever does) i see no reason to not love Platinum.
+Dr Caramel not when it's Platinum
Ulquiorra4sama but staring at main menu and going "YO! Platinum" for three times is to fanboy-ish. And being a fanboy is always bad because it blinds you..
And about that "developer's name is the safest thing to bet on".
Yeah, but it doesn't mean that they can't fuck it up.
+Dr Caramel Well they didn't fuck up in this case so why the fuck not be excited about it?
FULL LP WHEN YOU SCRUBS?
"Making the mother of all robots here, Optimus. Can't fret over every gear."
Also when is there going to be a Char character action game?
PLATINUM IM STILL WAITING...
IN SPACE.
The thought of the Hyaku Shiki doing dodge cancels and hundred stabs frees my soul from the Earth's gravity!
Cancel into Zeon Mega Stinger all day. ;)
DONT GET BURNT SON
And having something akin to witch time wouldn't be such a stretch because Newtypes.
You can literally dodge -cancel into the Shiki's Mega Bazooka in Gundam Extreme Vs Maxi Boost.
You guys saw that fire chase scene with megatron, right? RIGHT?!?!?!???!!!!!!!!!! That straight up looked like G1 transformers animated in the style of Transformers Armada. I need this game in my body right now
All these videos...
_a not a single one was Undertale_ ;__;
+mkatapodis2 The best LP
+mkatapodis2 I get that Undertale is hype as shit, but you want more of THEIR playthrough of it? really?...and it especially sucks cause they aren't even that far yet.
+Mr.Neffar I just want to get to a certain date with a certain skeleton. Matt's reactions to the game so far has been hilarious.
+mkatapodis2 more like not a single one was Danganronpa ;_;
+mkatapodis2 Please tell me its Sans! if yes then i must have this game
You guys are THE biggest nerds I have ever seen! And I mean that in the most respectful way possible. I grew up watching Transformers, G.I. Joe, TMNT (my fav), He-Man, Thundar the Barbarian (I had a crush on Ucla. If you know of whom I speak then you know that might be disturbing), ect. I was the only girl in my class that could go toe to toe with any boy on knowledge about the Transformers. Now that I'm old I've forgotten almost everything. 😐
What if Bayonetta could turn into a car?
Hmm... Platinum working with Hasbro...
Can I look forward to the My Little Pony character action game?
Soundwave would totally play like v
I would be down with Platinum grabbing random IPs. Power Rangers? All kinds of fighting depth is possible. My Little Pony? Don't care, let's do it.
I want Woolie to explain everything cool to me, he gets so hype.
Ok, so whoever said this is ruining transformers needs to take their heads out from their collective asses. Highmoon brought back transformers and made them cool again, but Micheal Bay and his movies and movie tie-in games were ruining this franchise. Platinum made this hype-ass game that looks amazing. I just hope that if Highmoon is making a new transformers game, then I hope it's good. FoC kind of dropped the ball a tiny bit.
On a side note, the only other game where you cannibalize gear to make one weapon better would be Darksiders II. It's the first thing that comes to my mind and I can't think of another that has this style of gear leveling up.
