We’ve been shamelessly pimping High Moon Studio’s Transformers: War for Cybertron here at TheSixthAxis. We do this for a few reasons. For a start, it’s got giant robots pounding the metal lard out of one another. As a child of the 80s I can assure you that there is absolutely nothing cooler in the universe than huge metallic behemoths sorting out their differences with the use of lasers and other humongous (and impractical) weaponry.
Second, despite being a barefaced IP tie-in, the footage we’ve seen so far implies we’re in for a rip-roaring robot Armageddon when the game launches later this year. Finally, Michael Bay is not involved. I shouldn’t have to explain this last point in any way.
Though quite similar (OK, nearly identical) to the previous multiplayer trailer released, this one does have 16 more seconds of footage. And you don’t need us to tell you what kind of carnage an armed to the teeth, sentient robot can do to you in 16 seconds now, do you?
