Transformers: More from Cybertron
Yeah, it’s another Transformers: War for Cybertron video preview; I hope you’re not getting tired of ’em, because I’m sure not. I don’t know what the talking heads are really saying — probably something about how they all love Transformers and are honored to be working on the game/toys/etc. — because I was too busy looking at the gorgeous Cybertron environment. It looks totally fantastic, enormous and alien and filled with Autobots and Decepticons kicking the shit out of each other. I don’t know how the game will end up playing, but if it’s this pretty the entire way through, I may not even notice if it happens to suck.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
