    Like what Local H Jay said, it was pretty good.

    I would say a little overwhelming, but for all you out there who were skeptics, I assure you it's a good movie.

    Let us not post spoilers Local H Jay, let us create a GLORIOUS thread. Haha.

    The voices in the DS game were all alot better.

    I'm not even sure if they use the same actors, because there's so much fucking filtering on the voices in the console version. Frank Welker still did a perfect megatron on the DS, and Starscream was a bit off, but it wasn't that terrible.

    afaik half the voices in the game aren't the voices in the movie.

    I could be wrong.

    You're right. The only voice holdovers are the humans and Optimus, I think. What I'm saying is that I don't know if the DS and console versions even share the same voice actors for Ironhide, Jazz, Starscream, and pretty much everyone aside from Optimus and Megatron (who still sounds uber-different than he does on the DS).

    Keith David is Barricade in both versions of the game and in the movie, as well.

    With all the voice treatment, it sounds nothing like him.

    Actually Keith David is just doing the game, not the movie. Jess Harnell is doing him in the movie, along with Ironhide.

    So, there's a Transformers: Cybertron marathon on. I've watched the show before, but it all seemed terrible and plotless, and it was just about racing for keys and nothing beyond that.

    However, the episodes on right now have all this crazy anime bullshit going on, and they're awesome. It's so strange to think I missed a gigantic spree of watchable episodes having seen how bland both the first and last episodes of the series had been.

    The man's an incredible voice actor. He was Wacko in Animaniacs. Now compare that to Captain Hero.


    So, chances are Barricade and Ironhide are going to sound fantastic.

    So I know the movie supposedly doesn't have an awesome plot or anything, but will the 360 Game spoil anything big? I just rented it and kinda want to play it, but if it'll spoil anything huge I'll just wait until after Monday night.

    If you must play, play through in Decepticon mode, I've heard that it takes a bit of a divergent path from the movie.

    But seriously, the movie's worth abstaining for.

    The autobot side is basically the exact plot of the movie. So take that as you will.

    I liked Armada, which is odd because most Transformers fans hate that show, and Cybertron. I never really gave Cybertron a chance because I hated how blocky they looked, and how overdone the voiceacting was (and not in the good way).
    Also: Anime Bullshit.

    Yeah thats what I said a while back. It does show what happens in the movie but it's not like its a movie full of twists and turns.

    You know Megatron is the bad guy and you know he loses in the end.

    Well I played the game up through the fight with Barricade, I just skipped any cutscenes and just did what Optimus told me over the radio to do.

    Really glad I didn't buy the game, pretty, but yeah, you know.

    Just beat the Suburbs part, the following cutscene caused my 360 to freeze.

    No big deal.

    Try to turn it back on, the 360 Splash screen freezes.

    Worry begins to set in.

    Try again a few minutes later, game loads and I get to the main menu and it freezes again.

    The game is killing my 360.

    Alright, I finished the cybertron missions. They're just survival missions to beat 35 enemies, and once you do both of them, you unlock movie 5.

    Now I just want movies 6 and 7, as well as the 3 skins I haven't unlocked yet. Icon hunting time!

    Jazz's sumo mission on the last autobot level is incredibly annoying. Basically, you can't whack anyone out of the ring; you have to throw something at them to knock them down and then pick 'em up... But it's bullshit because the throw system sucks in this game. You have to get enough distance to not be attacked by the guys; but at that range you have a high chance to miss, or even worse: hit the guy and have absolutly no effect. (I threw like five trees at one guy and he didn't fall down ONCE). And then when you finally DO knock a guy down, there's an incredibly high chance he'll get knocked very far away, but not far enough to get knocked out the ring, and by the time you get to him, he'll get back up.

    No way in hell I can do 18 in the time alloted.. I barely got 11 on my best run.

    This level on the Autobots DS version is driving me nuts, its happy landings I think. I have to destroy these turrets and I can kill the first 4, then it sends me to kill 4 more by a courthouse, but they are on rooftops. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to get on to these rooftops and kill these turrets. Any tips?

    I have 6 unlocked. I just got 100% on the Decepticon side. I'm going to wait till I see the movie tomorrow to finish the Autobot side (in the dam atm). Getting 100 tokens in each stage wasn't bad except the barricade stage. Man, not being able to fly makes finding every one of those things a bitch. I'm not looking forward to it on the Autobot side.

    But I have to do it.

    But the last couple missions on the Decepticon side were pretty sweet. Man; when the game is good the game is good. But when it's frustrating it's infuriating.

    Doesn't fucking help that Jazz sucks for shit at picking stuff up. (Usually he just bumps it out of range) and the fact that you have to pick shit up/carrying it makes you slow as hell prevents you from being able to line up your shots, meaning nine times out of ten when you finally manage to hit one of the fuckers, he flies far, far away.. but not fucking far enough to knock him out of the arena. He's still far enough away that there is no chance in hell you'll be able to get close enough to pick him up and throw him though, so as you futily try and run towards him, and rappidly thrash b trying to pick him up before he gets up, he'll get up and pretty much interrupt any further attempt at picking up any other items to get him with when he's so close to the edge.

    Oh yeah, the fact that cars are the only metal thing that really has any chance of consistantly knocking these guys down only spawn on the fucking edge of the map, so you'll be throwing it inwards 9/10ths of the time, thus repeating hte "flies really far away but doesn't hit the edge of the ring" issue.

    SO fucking frustrating.

    Even though we are "only" ranked 8 out of the Decepticons, and the Autoerotibots are 4th in the Autobot rankings, notice that the HIGHEST RANKED Autobot clan is slot 14 in the overall rankings.

    So it's like, we are the REAL number eight, and you chumps are number twenty.
