The whole point of transformers were that these were real living beings. They had almost human features, yet were machines. They had emotion, they were able to show that emotion through their facial expressions.

If you move away from that, which Bay appears to have done, you lose the very essence of what made the Transformers so enduring.

Sure they'd still have been kinda popular for a short while, but they'd have been as forgetable as other stuff, like Mask and the Visionaries and the Centurions without that something special that made them live on in the memories of all of us who grew up with them.

The game does look quite entertaining. Remember hearing ps2 game of Transformers was good but never got round to getting it.

What happened to old thread?

Saw the first trailer in the cinema the other day, I got very excited.

MON!

Are you saying Mask, Visionaries and Centurions were forgettable or that they stuck with us?

All three were awesome.

[retired_bec8643]

They were ? can barely remember any of them.

That is assuming when you say Mask you don't mean the Jim Carrey film ?

The PS2 game was very good I thought. Basically a rather generic shooter in the end. But visually it was excellent in comparison to games coming out at the time.

And they got the sound right. So it was automatically good.

He's saying that far more people remember Transformers.

The PS2 game was great :thup:

What Gregg said really, even the Autobots look scary, I can't see how anyone could befriend them

A great effort on the thread Karl, looking forward to this
