Transformers: Free-Running New Trailer

Could this be the game girls have been waiting for?

SPOnG's said it before, and we'll say it again. We - Love - Giant - Transforming - Robots! It goes without saying, then, that when the cinematic introduction for Activision's Transformers spilled its metallic guts over our screens this morning, we felt the need to share it with the world.

SPOnG even clings to the hope that this might prove to be something of a crossover game for members of the fairer, better-smelling sex. It was with some surprise that SPOnG looked across the table of its local all-you-can-eat Chinese restaurant last week to see one of our female acquaintances ask, nay, demand (and not without indignation bordering on anger), “When's that bloody Transformers film out?”

Needless to say, she'll be harassed into trying her hand at the game when it hits on July 20th. Transforming robots and '80s cartoon nostalgia are for girls too, folks!

You can find out more about Transformers on SPOnG's dedicated game page.

In other news, "Get off my lawn! Damn kids!"

We all know we're going to go and see the film and play the game, although it does hurt that Bumblebee isn't a VW Bug any more.

You mean Macross not Robotech (the anime purist that I am bites back, sorry..). The Jet Fire transformer toy was based on the Valkyrie fighter from the Macross/Robotech series. I still have no idea why. You may have to wiki that one.

Jetfire isn't in the film. You probably means Megatron who actually a plane instead of a gun this time (a bit more plausable mind). Film is looking great, I think its defo one of the best this year.

Oi, get that Decepticon logo off there. Lol.
