"Starting Friday EB Games/GameStop have strated taking preorders for the forth coming Transformers the Movie Games.

The Games Have a Street Date of June 19th, 2007 (that means in store on that day - not next day like most dates).

Finally if you live anywhere near Burlington New Jersey, pre-order your copy from store 4526 Burlington Mall, a certain Seibertronian would be most happy;-)

-DJ Kevintron

P.S. If you're interested, I already pre-ordered both DS versions and the XBOX360 CE."

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Based on TRANSFORMERS, DreamWorks Pictures and Paramount Pictures’ upcoming live-action feature film due out July 4th, and produced in association with Hasbro, TRANSFORMERS: The Game lets gamers control the outcome in the battle for Earth as they choose to protect it as AUTOBOTS or destroy it as DECEPTICONS.

KEY FEATURES:

Protect Or Destroy The Earth - As the TRANSFORMERS robot’s war comes to Earth, gamers make the choice to join the AUTOBOTS in protecting our planet or to join the DECEPTICONS in destroying it. With dual campaigns, the fate of the world is in players’ hands.

MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE - Instantly change from a larger than life robot to a high-powered vehicle such as a sports car, fighter jet or helicopter. Seamless transformations leave enemies in the dust or enhance players’ combat strategy with a range of options in both vehicle and robot modes that take full advantage of the characters’ dual forms.

The World Is Your Playground - Players crush, topple and wreck every object, including buildings and vehicles, in their path or use the objects as weapons. It is up to the gamer to decide how best to use their surrounding environment.

Freedom of Choice - An unprecedented line-up lets gamers experience the massive scale, unique abilities and sheer strength of an army of characters from the TRANSFORMERS universe when they choose to play as OPTIMUS PRIME, MEGATRON, IRONHIDE, STARSCREAM, BUMBLEBEE and more.

Variety of Combat - For head-to-head battles, fans engage in melee combat that reflects each TRANSFORMERS robot’s character, scale, weight and power along with melee weapons and special moves unique to each character. The game’s ranged combat offers a wide array of projective weapons designed to take out enemies from afar.

PlayStation® Portable Features - The PSP version features 20 playable AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS, from both the live-action film and previous generations, that battle through an enhanced version of the film’s storyline. Players can customize their character by choosing more than 10 different weapon types in both single and adhoc multiplayer gameplay.

Our own Djkevintron has dropped us an email with some interesting news. The preorder slips with mock up game cases for the upcoming Transformers Movie video game have now arrived at Ebgames and Gamesstop stores. Here is what Djkevintron wrote to us:

"Today 2/16/07 Ebgames/gamesstop stores in there new monthly marketing kit recieved preorder inserts for the up coming transformers the movie game for XB306, PS3, and Nintendo DS.
The inserts show the front cover being the eye over the earth poster with an RP(rating pending) rating in the lower left. The back of the inserts shows screens shots from the previous transformers game that was on ps2(yes even on the ds). All that is says on the back is for EBgames/Gamestop promotion use only.
I would have scaned them but its a grey area with company policy(sorry guys need the job).
There is no preorder sku listed yet in the EBgames/gamestop computer but sending the box art means there should be one in the next week or so. Fear not I will pass the preorder info on as soon as i have it!

The mobile game will launch simultaneously with the console title and the much-anticipated movie release of the live-action Transformers film. Players battle as Optimus Prime across multiple levels and transform from vehicle to robot with special weapons capabilities. Enlist the help of the other Autobots in the race to fine the Allspark – the true source of power for all the Transformers."
