Transformers: Dark of the Moon Impressions -- Mounted Weapons Now Come Standard

Transformers: Dark of the Moon isn’t your typical movie tie-in game, primarily because it tells a completely independent, yet still relevant, story set between the first two Transformers movies. The prequel also introduces a host of new features and transformers for players to unleash mechanized hell with when the game ships in a few months. We had a chance to see the game at GDC 2011, and here’s a quick look at one of the big new elements, Stealthforce:

"The biggest new addition to the gameplay this time around is called Stealthforce, and it's nothing like what it sounds like. It basically allows players to transform into a hybrid state between robot and vehicle in which the player has access to weapons while in vehicle form, eliminating the need to complete transform out of vehicle mode to take down enemies."
