I didnât want anything to do with the last Transformers game, partly because Iâd heard it was awful, but mostly because it featured âmovieâ Transformers. Which are terrible, spindly things.
Call me a purist, call me an asshole, I donât mind, but when a Transformer looks like a Bionicle with a bone disease, itâs not really a Transformer. This ruined the last film for me, I wasnât going to work to unlock them in the last game, and it even ruined the 2004 PS2 game based on the âArmadaâ series, which part of me knew was excellent, but other parts reviled because it starred the âwrongâ Optimus Prime.
So itâs heartening to hear that the developers behind the second Transformers game â the one based on the second live-action Transformers movie â will be incorporating a wide range of downloadable characters into the game. Not âunlockableâ. âDownloadableâ.

Like, say, the original series. Or, in my dreams, multiple series, from which I can build a Prime menagerie like the one above.
UPDATE â Yes, you could unlock some skins in the first game. But they were just re-skins. This sounds more like the (downloadable) introduction of all-new characters, which if Activision know what theyâre doing, will include Soundwave, Huffer and Seaspray.
