First Star Trek, then Star Wars...

And now, perhaps spurred on by the success of Star Trek: Online and the anticipation around Star Wars: TOR, Hasbro has apparently decided to jump on the MMO band wagon with its popular Transformers franchise:

So far, just rumor, but depending how good it is, I could be splitting my time between STO and the TF:MMO. It also depends on if we can play on the Decpeticon faction or not. That's always been one of my gripes with previous Transformers games; the Decepticons are either unplayable, or their gameplay leaves something lacking.

    I'm hoping the character design will be something similar to what they used in Transformers: War for Cybertron.

    At the very least, put High Moon in charge of it. They got the tie-in game for Dark of the Moon, and the previews actually look pretty good, not the shovelware that Luxoflux put out a coupe years ago. Really looks like those guys know how to make a Transformers game regardless of the continuity they're drawing from.

    I want my Transformer to transform into a Baneblade.

    I approve of this message. Baneblades are awesome. If I could play the entire DoW2 campaign with just a baneblade I would.

    That is certainly the mode that many of the Megatron/Brawl/Warpath copycat characters might take.

    Old Rumor is old, about as old as its rumored Asia only release.
