@ Maximus Ambus	:	(29 September 2020 - 01:35 AM) Ever notice Kath SOucie's Janine in the later episodes of Real Ghostbusters sounds like Tara Strong's Sari Sumdac?
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(28 September 2020 - 02:10 PM) I wish they were more universal like Beast Wars, Animated or Prime and as professionally done,
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(28 September 2020 - 02:06 PM) The Netflix shows are done for adults, the Generation toyline is for adults who grew up with G1.
@ Sabrblade	:	(28 September 2020 - 12:53 PM) Who said it ever was?
@ -LittleAutob...	:	(28 September 2020 - 12:43 PM) Whatever happened to WFC Earthrise being a kids show X'D
@ wonko the sane?	:	(28 September 2020 - 11:43 AM) Cool, my last tablet couldn't run it, and I stopped caring by the time I got the new one. So thanks!
@ Otaku	:	(28 September 2020 - 11:27 AM) There are crossover characters, but the amount and distribution... Marvel Vs Capcom this ain't. If @wonko the sane? my bad!
@ Otaku	:	(28 September 2020 - 11:21 AM) I've been playing for checks account 1002 days, 23 hours. So, by 2021, it will have been three years. I think it takes place in its own continuity, largely inspired by G1 but borrowing from other places.
@ Otaku	:	(28 September 2020 - 11:19 AM) @wonko the sane? Can only speak for Earth Wars, but so few they're easy to forget.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(28 September 2020 - 07:39 AM) Didn't they already do the across universes thing in that tablet game?
@ Demovere Xeno	:	(28 September 2020 - 05:30 AM) Also, make the setting an amalgamation of different Transformers series, rather than based on a specific one. Bring in things like 'Sentinel Major' as the primo Autobot jerk, and sleek car mode Vehicons as the Decepticons' basic grunt.
@ Demovere Xeno	:	(28 September 2020 - 05:27 AM) KT just needs to incorporate the vehicle modes into the combat system, like Platinum did for Devastation, so they're for more than just wheeling it across the battlefield. =P
@ Demovere Xeno	:	(28 September 2020 - 05:25 AM) Transformers: Warriors of Cybertron! =D
@ Tm_Silverclaw	:	(28 September 2020 - 05:15 AM) I want a Power Rangers Mosu. I would also take a Transformers Mosu.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(28 September 2020 - 04:50 AM) It even ended on a sequel hook.
@ Demovere Xeno	:	(28 September 2020 - 04:40 AM) Man, I just want another Devastation game... =(
@ NotVeryKnightly	:	(28 September 2020 - 01:53 AM) Aren't TFs way more varied than Joes, as far as they'd work in gameplay? Like, Omega Supreme is vastly different from Bumblebee.
@ unluckiness	:	(27 September 2020 - 10:16 PM) Hell, ripoff Super Robot Wars withTFs
@ unluckiness	:	(27 September 2020 - 10:16 PM) IDK they could make something like FF tactics or Fire Emblem ripoff with Robots and i'd buy it
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(27 September 2020 - 09:43 PM) See, I feel GI Joe (with it's varied cast) is a better fit for a strategy game, where as Transformers feels more suited for a shooter.
@ Maruten	:	(27 September 2020 - 08:28 PM) I might give them points for making a strategy game if it's actually a good strategy game.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(27 September 2020 - 07:48 PM) I mean, points for making a strategy game instead of third person shooter, but: urrrrgggg. Cyberverse.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(27 September 2020 - 07:47 PM) A transformers game for the switch? checks Urrrggg... cyberverse...
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(27 September 2020 - 06:28 PM) October will be a big month for Hasbro fans: Zoids, GI Joe AND Transformers all have brand new console games. All on the Switch at that!
@ wonko the sane?	:	(27 September 2020 - 09:04 AM) At least in animated he was more driven than just "loyal bootlick".
@ unluckiness	:	(27 September 2020 - 08:29 AM) Oof, That's a huge downgrade
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(27 September 2020 - 02:35 AM) After rewatching Animated Sound and Fury, in my head canon Titans Return Soundwave is that Soundwave.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(26 September 2020 - 04:09 PM) On an unrelated note: I just got the BBTS email about kingdom pre-orders... and even the stuff I don't want I'm perfectly willing to get if it means I can have the rest of it.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(26 September 2020 - 04:08 PM) It's digimon. So first one, then the other.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(26 September 2020 - 12:53 PM) 50/50 odds, it's either a helicopter with limbs, or a scantily-clad human with heli blades on their back. If female, 90% odds on the second one.
@ NotVeryKnightly	:	(26 September 2020 - 12:39 PM) I read that as "Helicoptermon" and wondered what kind of Digimon that was.
@ Bass X0	:	(26 September 2020 - 12:35 PM) Helicopter-mom, transform!
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(25 September 2020 - 11:58 PM) Aw I scratched the hood of my 35th anniversary Bluestreak. Fortunately he's in robot mode a lot.
@ Sabrblade	:	(25 September 2020 - 07:24 PM) No decoration could improve the wall more than Knockout himself
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(25 September 2020 - 05:04 PM) The wall could use some decorating, though. Maybe a nice shelf or a portrait.
@ -LittleAutob...	:	(25 September 2020 - 04:32 PM) I'm laughing so hard XDDD
@ ▲ndrusi	:	(25 September 2020 - 02:31 PM) He doesn't even mind this time. You know what? It's comfortable here.
@ -LittleAutob...	:	(25 September 2020 - 02:23 PM) AND THEN KNOCKOUT WAS IN THE WALL AGAIN XDDD
@ Bass X0	:	(25 September 2020 - 01:11 PM) is an annoying stage in Super Mario World.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(24 September 2020 - 02:15 PM) Gnarly.
@ PlutoniumBoss	:	(24 September 2020 - 01:05 PM) Beast Era, a blonde rat called Sunsqueaker.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(24 September 2020 - 01:00 PM) And then Knockout was in the wall again.
@ Sabrblade	:	(24 September 2020 - 12:53 PM) Knockout: "Ooh, sorry, Lord Megatron. The correct word was... 'Decepticon'."
@ -LittleAutob...	:	(24 September 2020 - 11:15 AM) Knockout: while doing a crossword puzzle Lord Megatron, whats a ten letter word for disappointment? \| Megatron: ...... Starscream.
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(23 September 2020 - 01:20 PM) @Bass X0 Shockwave did it.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(23 September 2020 - 11:56 AM) At least it's not Suntwerker.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(23 September 2020 - 11:19 AM) I read that name as "suntweaker" the first time, and was terrified for a moment...
@ Bass X0	:	(23 September 2020 - 03:41 AM) Prowl did nothing wrong.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(23 September 2020 - 01:50 AM) Smashy, Stabby, Selfy, and Shieldy.
@ Xero Prime	:	(22 September 2020 - 08:52 PM) RunFast, MuckyTrail, TrackBreaker and Sunstreaker

Its always been odd to me how DC backpedaled on legacy and brought back the originals

I sorta wondered before why DC wanted modern Blue Beetle to be a thing. I knew he existed in the comics but then he was in the first episode of Batman Brave and the Bold, appeared in Smallville, had the villains of Young Justice s2 be his, a playable character in Injustice 2... He's really just DC's answer to Spider-Man (kid given great power and responsibility) but Hispanic. Was he created to fulfill a mandate of diversity? I think Marvel came up with Reptyl (also Hispanic) for Superhero Squad around the same time?

Blue Beetle is more like if Symbiote Spider-Man couldn't get rid of his suit and had to learn to make peace with it while still being a hero.

That's more like an Agent Venom thing than a Spidey thing.
