ATransformersgame that doesn’t have Michael Bay’s stink all over it? It’s actually happening! Activisionhas revealed, viaGame Informer, thatTransformers: Battle for Cybertronis an all-new game slated for 2010, and it’s going to be inspired by …Gears of War?
Battle for Cybertronis an interesting proposition — while the Transformers will not be appearing as their clunky Generation 1 selves, they alsowon’tbe the shambolic horrors seen in Michael Bay’s movie. They resemble the comic book versions more than anything — traditional, but a bit more sleek and stylized — and are specifically reminiscent of theWar Withinart style. Megatron will transform into a tank, since a Walther PPK makes for bad gameplay.
It’s going to be a third-person shooter, and players will be able to play both as Autobots and Decepticons. High Moon Studios (theBourneguys) will be developing and the game will hit Xbox 360, PS3 and PC platforms. Check out the gallery for intensely bad-quality images.
