Get Ready for the Transformers Game!
Right. You better get your mouse/keyboards and joy pads ready!
In conjunction with the upcoming Transformers live action movie that will be released in theaters this coming July, HPG, the licensing division of Hasbro Inc., has commissioned Activision Inc to develop and release the Transformers game. The game is already out in retail stores nationwide so go to your nearest game shops and place your orders.
According to Will Kassoy, senior vice president of global brand management, Activision, Inc.
“TRANSFORMERS: The Game lets you choose your side – Autobots or Decepticons – to either protect or destroy Earth. The game features fully destructible environments, an army of playable characters, split second changes from robot to vehicle form and a storyline that goes beyond the film to include some elements from the property’s long history that will also appeal to Generation 1 fans.”
“The Activision team has done an outstanding job of replicating the live-action movie scale and realism into TRANSFORMERS: The Game. Across the current and next-generation platforms, gamers will have an awesome TRANSFORMERS experience from the amazing vehicle-to-robot changes to the heart-pounding action.” said Jeff Burdeen, Vice President of Digital Media for HPG
The TRANSFORMERS: The Game is made compatible with PC and some of the well-known console and hand held gaming units like Nintendo DS, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Portable (PSP). Each gaming platform feature different game plays. All Transformers characters featured in the movie are in the game. The players must join the Decepticons to destroy the earth, or play with the Autobots to protect the earth. These two machine rivals will beat the hell out of each other just like in the movie. By firing missiles, shooting heavy ammunitions and ballistics, and with the crushing power of these vehicle robots, they can really damage their metal bodies and auto parts like catalytic converters. LOL!
Anyway, the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) gave the TRANSFORMERS: The Game a “T” (Teen) rating for the PC, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 versions, while the PSP version is rated “E 10+” (Everyone 10 and older – Violence).
