http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/9/2009/12/500x_cybertron.jpg (http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/9/2009/12/cybertron.jpg)I am daring to be excited by Transformers: War For Cybertron (http://kotaku.com/tag/transformerswarforcybertron/). Why? Because I love any Transformers not involving Michael Bay, and I especially love the War Within comic series.
Which is kinda what this game is like! Though, sadly, not exactly like; as this artwork shows, cues have been taken from the fan-favourite prequel series (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers:_The_War_Within), but it's not quite the same. Ah well. Still looks a million times better than the spiky look-a-likes the films have been "blessed" with.
These two shots are just a sample; there's plenty more to be found at the Game Informer link below.
