Transformers: War for Cybertron's Preorder Bonuses

level up.

Really kind of hate the trend of preorder bonuses :/

This game has failed to give me anything close to hype. The levels seems so terribly uninteresting, and so does the robots. I'm not paying good money for various shades of grey and purple.

" Really kind of hate the trend of preorder bonuses :/ "

This is bullshit. You can't add such possibly game-changing preorder bonuses to a game-especially a game of a series which has had a fair share of bad games.

FML

Wasn't shockwave a gun?

This is taking the pre-order bonus too far. Only 3 people are going to be playing this anyway.

I fucking hate it when games do this shit ><
Yay lets split up major game elements between different retailers!
First ME2 armors and now this too ...
How about they stop doing this shit and make everyone able to use all the items that are in the game anyway. Instead of limiting the players choice just to suck retailer balls.
 
I don't mind preorder bonuses but splitting them up irritates me.
I was kind of on the fence on this game.
Lost sale.

Pre-order bonuses are fucking lame, especially store-specific ones.

If I can't play as soundwave in the PC version, they have lost another sale to a potentially huge fan. 

it's amazing to me that the game only features 6 playable characters out of the box, and then tacks on 3 more as bonuses.
that's 50% more content created just as bonuses... 
50% more that the average customer doesn't get.  
Fuck that

" I wouldn't care about pre-order bonuses if they'd just fucking release them as Free DLC a month or two later. It's really annoying to think that parts of the game are forever locked to me cause I don't like to shop at Gamestop. "

I would imagine these are just skins that are playable on top of the base 6.  no?

Oh fuck you, Activision

" Wasn't shockwave a gun? "

Hrm, looks interesting but wish that every studio that did different preorder stuff made a video like this showing just what you're getting & where instead of hunting around for it all over the internets.

Well fuck 3 separate retailer exclsuives and all only on 360.  Complete bullshit, their is no reason everyone shouldn't have access to these.
 
Ah well luckily their just model swap outs for the tank, scout and jet multiplayer characters same as the custom armor in ME2 was.

I refuse to complain about a game that might very well be awful.
 ps. Gamestop wins.  

shockwave turned into a huge lazergun that could fly  http://images.absoluteanime.com/admin/favtoy/favtoy-transformers-shockwave.jpg

" Wasn't shockwave a gun? "

GameStop has the coolest exclusive but I will not be pre-ordering this game anywhere so meh.

This game looks terrible

Stinky poop of a game. Flashbacks of "Small Soldiers" on the ps1. I imagine its going to be like that.

" @Burns098356GX: Soundwave turned into a cassette player.  Shockwave turned into some sort of turret if I remember correctly.  I'm not that rusty to confuse Soundwave and Megatron lol "

robots that turn into earthly vehicles long before they visited earth where the cars are from. wut?

meh.

If tv's Eddie Winslow voices Jazz then they'll get my pre-order money

Megatron turned into the gun. Shockwave turned himself into a cassette tape.   I know. It was the 80's. "

This sounds ALMOST as bad a cash grab as the Star Trek preorder bonuses.  Earn emotes, races, and special abilities by buying a lifetime subscription before the game is out.  Either way, since its impossible to get all the bonuses, this game is pretty much a big screw you to, basically, all its customers.

If it was Soundwave I would have been remotely interested.

Look at the bottom print though guys... " Character playable in multi-player in escalation mode only"  
That sounds like a pitiful pre-order bonus to me and to all the people who aren't getting it because of this: lol.

preorders roll out!

" Well fuck 3 separate retailer exclsuives and all only on 360.

"Complete bullshit, their is no reason everyone shouldn't have access to these. " 

meh

I'm a big Transformers fan and I dont' like Demolishor or Jazz being closed off to me, but at the end of the day, even this is a false dichotomy.  I have been convinced this game has potential, but there's no way I'm preordering before seeing a score.

(slowly reaches towards eBay)

I'm a pre-order bonus now? 
Does that mean I die really pointlessly again?

" I'm a pre-order bonus now? Does that mean I die really pointlessly again? "

If someone likes more then one of these 3 Transformers there pretty much screwed.

fuck this shit, 3 different exclusives and they're all cool characters. guess ebay wins cuz that's where i'm getting the codes.
