TOY FAIR PREVIEW VIDEO
REVIEW:
At toy fair unicron.com was given the chance to see some rendered in game graphics of the upcoming Transformers: The Game, how ever pictures were not allowed. Right off the bat I can say that we certainly liked what we saw. With very detailed characters, the graphics were smooth and the action looked great. My only criticism is that the graphics looked a little washed out. Bumbelbee's yellow wasn't terrible bright and Baracade seemed very gray. This may be a result of the LCD display/angle it was view on, or perhaps unfinished lighting/shadow effects. We leaned that at the start of the game you get to choose to play the game as either Autobot or Deception and the environments are both fully interactive and destructible. We're look forward to seeing some screen captures of the game soon and can't wait for a hands on test drive! |
