It's so bad! So, so, so bad!! Why couldn't they get someone like Dr.Smoov to do it?

It is not THAT bad. despite it being a bit blocky it still looked pretty good and the voices wern't horrible.

overall i rather enjoyed it and cant wait to see the next

i think the dude doing Soundwave was confused.

he was trying to sound like Welker but his cadence and the way he pronounced words sounded like he was trying to sound like Tony Todd.

maybe The Fallen merged with Soundwave after dying. lol

and i looooved Bumblebee, it was the same voice no matter what he said but they added those "radio dial" noises in between comments to make it seem like the movies where his dialogue is from the radio stations.

heeeelarious stuff.

For something that probably cost next to nothing to make it wasnt that bad. It was actually enjoyable too. For one, the voice acting was pretty good for what has to be in house staff and they had the transforming sound. Only gripe is they didnt put the effect on Soundwaves voice. Actually looking forward to the next one. Rather watch that than bayformers thats for sure.

"one @ a time? how about 10,00 rounds per minute?. take that soundwave." lol! but not the best thing i've ever seen.

Well, Soundwave DOES sound like Frank Welker... as Dr. Klaw from Inspector Gadget. #-o

Well, it was mildly entertaining...

by **Doubledealer93** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 4:27 am

that was so painful to watch. im glad i did not watch the whole thing. i just, could not do it.

by **Poyguimogul** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 5:05 am

I can't complain...
It was free.. It was CG..
Recon Ironhide is only real downside..
First ever animated / cg bludgeon~! WINZ!!
Thats rowdy. Dr.Klaw as Soundwave Kamehameha!!

Honestly, I don't think it was that bad. Sure it was a bit cheesy and the animation and voices weren't top notch, but they're passable when you consider that this is totally geared for the kids, to get them to buy repaints and characters they aren't familiar with. No kids knew who Bludgeon was, til they saw this.

"Can you hear me now Soundwave?"

lol

Also...

"Too many sonic booms!" omg, I wish I could sample this over and over for Street Fighter.

Not that bad. Decent voices and animation...cool way to make the toys come alive..

I didn't like Bumblebee's voice though. If he was using the radio like they tried to make it wound like, his voice would be totally different with every phrase, and he wouldn't be able to say things like Ironhide or Soundwave unless it was on the radio...doesn't make sense. but again, not bad

It's so bad, it's good...

I guess it just makes me yearn for actual Transformers cartoons..

That's what you think. Anyway, The animation wasn't half bad, and I'd rather watch this than RotF. But the voices were HORRIBLE. I wish they could have gotten better voice actors. I personally think the game voice actors would have been better suited for this. Overall (besides the voices) epic win.
