I did the preorder so i got a $5 gift card to. It ain't much but i'll take it. Played it for an hr or so before I had to go out. Gotta say, I really really like it so far. The story looks more like from "The War Within" comic line that Dreamwave came out with years ago.

$65.

BB/FS/WM all selling at $40 thanks to WM.

pick it up before tomorrow ends because the price will go back up.

Make sure u ask for Jazz package from BB.
FS comes with Transfromer DVD which is even better.
EB comes with shockwave code.

lol. nothing. But they were the first one announced it as $40.

BB/FS were advertised as $65 at first with all the freebies. But then they follow WM's price otherwise ppls going to run there with $38 after PM not to mention losing all sales to WM.

Really enjoying this game so far. I'm sure part of it is because I was a huge transformers fan when I was little. Always a Starscream fan for some reason, his voice I don't much care for in the game. Frame rate does suffer a bit sometimes though. Not sure if it's because I play it on Xbox or not.

^ I dont see any frame rate drop at all on my PS3. But I have only done 3 chapters and it did install about 5GB data onto the hard drive the first time I put the disc in.

I am not a die heart fan of transform but I am enjoying this game too.

There's 10 or 12 chapters...I can't remember how many there are now. Half are playing the Autobots and the other half is Decepticons. Just finished the Autobot chapters last night.

ecsw
06-24-2010, 11:36 AM
^ yes, I think 10 in total. I hate how they sell this game divided in half on DS as 2 different games. :p

is it mainly a multiplayer type game? or is there a good single player side to it?

all the reviews etc ive seen have been about the multiplayer and that doesnt interest me; or else i woulda pre-ordered it for those characters :)

single player campaign looks to be good and has a good story. also it's 3 player coop which is the kicker for me :)

I haven't tried the multi-player co-op or escalation modes yet but the single player story line is good. The game is more like a prequel to the G1 series with the artwork looking like "The War Within".

After I finish the single player i'm gonna jump into escalation.

yes

ohh..because i added this game to the cart and the only available option was pick up in store. At the 2nd last screen before I submit the order, they ask for credit card information on the right.

they don't actually charge it until you pick it up in the store..and from there you may pay by cash, debit, credit, gift cards

it's been 3 days and the game still has not shipped.

I went to Bestbuy asking if I can just pick the game up at the store since they have some in stock. But they said that because I bought it during the special price and that that deal is over, picking up the game now would be considered purchasing it at the regular price.

I was like wtf??? I'm still getting the game from the same company and will still be paying at that special price so why can't I just grab it now?

I thought the single player campaign was really exceptional, good story, and challenging enough. A must play for people who were fans as a kid

After playing the game for a bit, I don't think I would recommend this to non fans of the series. While I enjoy the game, the lack of differing enemies and the terrible AI will not be enjoyed by most.

Does Transformer have multiplayer co-op mode that does NOT require online play? ie. 2 people in the same house on the same console, same tv playing campaign.
