Damn I thought it was a movie. This type of thing would have been a better look than the recent TF design overhall.

We also get Jazz as a preorder bonus from EB. Actually, im pretty sure EB is the only place in NZ offering preorder bonuses.

How the fuck is it corporate? You normally have to PAY for DLC. With preorder that shit is free.

Corporate because they want incentives to only buy from their stores. It's a marketing thing, they aren't giving you this 'dlc you'd usually pay for' for free because they LIKE you.

Most games I know of don't, such as gears of war and mass effect.  There are others that haad exclusive bonus content when preordering games, I think Assassins creed 2 had some too when you got the Enzio figurine ltd edition.

i was thinking more along the lines of actual game content. im not so fussed about the bonus crap that comes with a game, cause more often than not its total garbage.

Sorry for bumping a slightly old thread.  The game is OK at best.  Only reason why I even gave the game a chance its because its Transformers and its based off G1/Cybertron designs.  Its just your standard fare shooter and the simplicity really makes it both fun and not fun.  Fun because its really a good run and gun and one of the best Transformers game (not really that tough to achieve really).  Not fun due to flaws in its simplicity - lack of cover system, average weapon system, poorly implemented melee system.

So, if you like Transformers you will like this game alot.  If you want a shooter there are much better ones available.

The multiplayer in this game is really good imo. One of the more fun multiplayer shooters ive played period. Yes im a TF nerd, so i probably would say that, but its ACTUALLY good. Escalation mode is particularly fun. I would like to see a cover system, but its hardly a necessity. The melee system is pretty stupid, but its no worse than halo's melee system. TBH, the multiplayer is underrated. Its a really really solid 3ps. I can honestly say i havent played a better one. But yea. If youre really into shooters, its probably not the game for you.
