Fall of Cybertron: They've got my money now

No noses? No problem! Zombiebots? Sure, why not. A confusing new canon that allows loose and contradictory material? And now a new sequel show with an entirely different art style that takes place way in the future!

Fall of Cybertron: They've got my money now

Look at this article. Look at these videos. These dudes know what the Dinobots are about and why they're awesome. And they've gotten 'em into the game. I'm pretty sure I love these dudes now.

So yeah, I guess I gotta get a PS3 now.

EDIT: And please, for the love of everything decent, Hasbro. Please, Fall of Cybertron Grimlock toy. Oh, please.

Yeah, I'm disappointed High Moon Studios can't develop games for the Wii... Or who ever develops the Wii version could make it more like the PS3/Xbox360 version.

Oh, I'm sure they are.

Not exactly what I meant. I meant more like, "I guess I gotta get one of the newer systems now". PS3's just the one I'd prefer to get.

Well I already have a Wii myself, which is why I said that. But the Wii version of War for Cybertron (which was renamed Cybertron Adventures) was absolutely nothing like the PS3/Xbox versions because another developer had to step in to make it. I'm sure the same will be true for Fall of Cybertron. I just wish they could have make it more like the other versions of the game so I wouldn't have to buy another system...

It probably has to do with the interface although, I too wondered why they couldn't make it more similar. Do you have Cybertron Adventures and if so, is it any good? I do have both a Wii and a 360. I'd love to get a PS3 if only for God of War 3 but that's going to be a loooooooong time coming, if ever.

As I understand it, the operating engine (Unreal Engine 3) War for Cybertron was developed on isn't compatible with the Wii, and High Moon Studio's doesn't have the in-house facilities to develop something that would run on a Wii, which is why another company had to develop the Wii version. I don't own Cybertron Adventures myself, but I know it's not that great of a game. Which is really disappointing seeing as War for Cybertron is a great game.

Main reason I want a PS3, right there.

I've got a 360, so.

Anyway, Christmas 2012 is when the WiiU is scheduled to come out, so we *might* get a version thrown together for that. Might. It's still all up in the air. But yeah, the Wii usually gets the dicking when it comes to multiplatform games just because it's basically a glorified GameCube. (Yeah, really.)

People spend so much time worrying about whether a figure is "mint" or not that they never stop to consider other flavours.

That's a good point... From what I understand, the Wii U will have an Unreal Engine 3, so it should be able to play games like Fall of Cybertron. Unfortunately, it wont be backwards compatible with Gamecube games like the Wii is though.
