Radical New Gameplay Trailer for TRANSFORMERS: DEVASTATION
Platinum Games' Transformers: Devastation video game looks like it could be the greatest Transformers game ever made. One of the things I love about it most is that it looks exactly like the classic 1980s cartoon series that I grew up watching. It offers an explosion of nostalgia! These are the styles and designs that I wish Michael Bay would have used in his movies. There's no doubt in my mind that this game is going to deliver a super-punch of awesomeness for anyone who plays it, but especially for the fans who grew up on the original cartoon. The trailer highlights each character's unique brand of destruction.
In an interview with PlayStation Blog , game producer Robert Conkey talked about the game:
"Platinum Games spent a lot of time trying to match each character’s personality with a complementary fighting style. Bumblebee, for example, attacks faster than any other Autobot, but he sacrifices a fair amount of power. And Wheeljack’s mechanical ingenuity translates into an attack pattern that centers on ranged weapons."
Conkey goes on to explain that "along with their individual sense of style and timing, every character also has his own set of unique moves and mechanics. So, just because you’ve mastered Optimus Prime’s combos doesn’t mean that Grimlock will be a cakewalk."
The game will be released on October 6th! For more information on the game, including unique weapons that you'll be able to use in the game, click here. To watch the first trailer, click here.
