Knowing that P* has three other games on it’s plate has me concerned about this game. Korra game ended up the way it did because it was developed by a b-team and most of Platinum resources were spend for Bayo 2. I doubt it will suck but end up painfully average.

It looks so good but gameplay looks all generic. And not having decepts just sucks. Also 3 car bots, yet none of them is Jazz. It’s geewun so at the very least that’s good.

Jazz’s VA dead.

Probably why no playable Jazz.

at 6:31…did Bumblebee do a Tatsumaki Senpukyaku?
Awesome.

He did. He can even slide in between the enemies legs. Optimus Prime even turns into a semi for a body splash at the end of an air combo. I’ll find the .gifs

MG;R, W101, Bayo2 were being worked on the same time, with Korra most likely being done with even shorter dev time than MG:R. It’s good to question things, but nothing shown so far has me questioning any of the game. Lack of online is sad, but the rest of the game looks fine.

Great news hearing that it’s going to be a full retail title. It’s overall quality will probably be much more polished than Korra

…I’m now sitting here daydreaming about a 1986 Transformers The Move game that looks and plays like this. With Devastator, Megatron, Galvatron, Unicron, etc. boss battles.

Damn, Jazz. It seems the good ones do go first. At least there’s still grimlock.

Scatman Crothers has been gone for a good while now unfortunately. He passed away shortly after the start of G1 Season 3.

The gameplay looks familiar but different. I hope a demo comes out for this bad boy soon. In that clip, Cullen still has the more recent treatment of the Optimus Prime voice. I was looking to see a more light spirited treatment akin to the original show. Not bad, but it just sounds heavy.

It’s probably just Cullen’s voice now. He’s getting up there, and age does a number on your vocal chords.

Particularly so for voice actors.

That’s what I figure, but a man can dream can’t he :smile:

That body splash using the cab trailer was something serious.

It’s not that difficult to find someone to do proper Jazz voice.

Also most va’s suck, even though va’ing is one of the easiest most retarded fucking jobs you can have. How fucking hard is it to put emotion in speech? It’s not that I respect good va’s (because I don’t, it’s fucking easy), it’s just that I can’t fucking understand bad VA’s and the sad shits that pick these people.

Voice acting is probably the most difficult acting there is, as you are acting with no props, no set… Hell, not even other actors to play off of most of the time.

It’s just you, the Voice Director, and your script as you sit in a tiny box trying to figure out the right pitch and emotion to put into your voice to portray the scene.

Great voice actors are just as talented*(if not more so)* as traditional film, tv, and stage actors.

That is one major thing JP VAs get over many American ones. Multiple VAs acting together in one room is pretty common

The original Transformers and G.I. Joe shows, as well as Batman TAS all had the actors recording together in the same room IIRC.

I was going to be a shit and post “NO G1 STARSCREAM NO BUY” but I like how this is turning out.

Those Optimus Prime semi truck Okizeme set ups are no joke.
