The End hits even harder with Optimus and Megatron fighting behind it. These two brothers turned Arch-Enemies struggle to decide the fate of two worlds. They both want what's best for Cybertron, but Optimus refuses to sacrifice innocent life for the resurrection of his own world. Tragedy and an unjust world tore them apart, and now they're at each others throats again and again.
@@cabooseisthevehicledestroy Meh even if they aren’t in G1 it’s not like Devastation is tied down to every last detail of the story I mean in G1 insecticons aren’t this drone species used to terraform planets yet in this they are. I like this approach to Megatron and Optimus even if it’s just the audience taking what they know of the lore and placing meaning behind it.
“Leave the life you knew before See another world worth fighting for” It’s great how those first lines fit the perspective of either Optimus or Megatron. Optimus fighting for Earth as his new home, Megatron fighting for a reforged Cybertron.
And the fact that Optimus is aware that he was reformatted for the sake of changing the tides of war. Gone the librarian archivist Orion Pax thus emerged the last lineage of the Primes. Fighting the good fight no matter the cost.
@@sk_hermit1809 To me the way i see Megatron is a dark refection of what optimus might've become had he never had his morals and learning the Value of Human life as Optimus prime knows they can't take things to far to save their planet and knows Megatron followers aren't evil but blindly follow Megatron without thinking for their selfs well Megatron wants to think he doing what right without seeing the Harm his actions have done as well as showing he see his Followers more as Toys to use and shows no care for theme making Megatron a perfect dark refection of Optimus
Another commenter also pointed out "Once again, we'll start our story anew; Don't be afraid, I will be with you" as Optimus' message to both the Autobots and Megatron himself, trying to appeal to Megatron's emotion as a fellow Cybertronian rather than a Decepticon. Man, I'm Here fits more ways than one for Transformers its scary sometimes.
I love how the two quotes from the 1986 movie are changed in roles in Devastation. At the intro Megatron tells Optimus "I thought you were made if sterner stuff" which is what Optimus tells Megatron in the movie when he crawls while begging for mercy. The second reference is the one you've mentioned, when megatron lethally wounds optmius with 3 shots at his spark and he falls over Megatron goes into "I would had waited an eternity for this! It's over, Prime!" As he points his weapon on a downed Optimus, and Optimus then proceeds to end of the fight hitting Megatron in the same way he does in the end of this fight.
It's just a damn shame the game can't be gotten legally anymore, all due to licensing running out. I got lucky to play it with PS+ but, sadly, when I did, it was free, and I'm not on my PS4 enough to want to resub to it, so I can't play it when I want. :(
I genuinely believe this game is peak Cullen Optimus. Watching a behind the scenes feature he did you can see he was actually really invested in this game and how Prime was portrayed. Having that motivated performance overlaid on the backbone of what might be the most enjoyable Platinum combat system and their 2nd best OST is what makes TFD special.
Almost anything Platinum made prior to NieR:Automata is incredibly underrated. Seriously, they should do remaster or remake Madworld for switch since that was the first game they made, maybe a spiritual successor?
"Cybertron is the center of my universe, how is it not the HEART of yours?!?" is a line that always stuck with me for some reason. The whole exchange during their final fight is just so good.
Same. And this music with it actually makes me tear up. Before it was an epic face off, now it's the tragic conflict with only a bittersweet outcome to hope for it was intended to be.
"I have the manifolds to stand for those who can not stand for themselves." This is Optimus in a nutshell. He will always stand for the weak, the powerless, the defenseless, it doesn't matter where they come from.
Music really does change the mood of a scene. From triumphant orchestral rock, to melancholic hymns. It shines on the shadow of tragedy that the eternal rivalry between Optimus and Megatron have.
I was super impressed to see how much the music fits with the scenes. Just that there’s too much talking and too much noise generated from the punches that drown out the music and mess up the combined audio
The lyrics “leave the life I knew before, see a new world worth fighting for” would fit so well in this situation. Especially after what Optimus said at the end about how they should accept that their old lives in Cybertron is gone and that earth is their new home and that they need to make the most of it.
I will never tire of hearing Peter Cullen and Frank Welker together as Optimus and Megatron. They are to Transformers what Sean Schemmel and Christopher Sabat are to Goku and Vegeta of Dragonball or Dan Green and Eric Stuart to Yugi Moto and Seto Kaiba of YuGiOh or Maile Flanagan and Yuri Lowenthal to Naruto and Sasuke of Naruto.
"I have the manifolds to stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves" is the line that builds me as a person and is why I love optimus, he's willing to sacrifice everything for the helpless and that's what a hero is.
"Leave the life you knew before... See _a new world worth fighting for..."_ That's basically the Autobots after discovering humanity upon their awakening on Earth. "Once again, we'll start our story anew; Don't be afraid, I will be with you" Optimus to his Autobots after declaring Earth their home; and also to Megatron after deciding to sacrifice Cybertron for Earth, trying to appeal to emotion if he will not see reason. This song honestly might be even better for this fight than the actual song in-game. I remember suggesting this on the Undefeatable Devastator video, and though there were changes made, I feel you did them for the better, and am forever even more glad I made the suggestion after seeing the end result.
Man it’s a shame that Devastation got so overlooked, it was a really fun game with some of my favorite boss fights and in my opinion a wonderful dual between Optimus and Megatron, especially if you played as Optimus for the first phase of the Megatron battle as well. Thank you for this awesome video, it was incredibly hype!
Everybody talking about how much the sonic music fits so well……. But nobody talking about this guy’s devastation skills like damn And I spent over 130 hours on this game and I thought I was good
“See a new world worth fighting for” fits very well with the conflict of the scene. It can be interpreted as either Optimus defending their new home or it could describe Megatron trying to create a new Cybertron.
The first few lines of I'm Here perfectly capture Optimus' feelings about Earth. He wants to save Cybertron, but he knows he must move on to save humanity. Somehow a perfect mash up.
Years have gone by, *but I've never forgotten how epic this Final Battle was.* The Animation, Dialogue, Gameplay, Music, Optimus' Final Words, etc. Man this was so incredible. 🔥 *I still hope that one day this underrated jem of a game will get a sequel.* 🤞
it should have by now but for some reason you cannot even BUY it online you have to find a disc copy somewhere. they alluded to a sequel and then just.... dumped the entire franchise, we have not had ANYTHING transformers since this game and that is a crime
@@HyperShadow991 They had a sequel comic for this game, but that’s all I could find. I’m not even a fan of Transformers, but I hope this gets revived someday.
Honestly I think this song fits the ending of this game more than the actual soundtrack. The instrumental is somber, sad even tragic. A perfect embodiment of what this proud race of beings is reduced to. Fighting a war centuries old against each other on a completely different world. A world that had no part in such a conflict but were thrust into it anyway. The rage and madness of a tyrant and the hope and melancholic duty of a man willing to stop him without harming that unwilling victim of their war. Both fighting for the same thing but with different methods. They want to rebuild their home, but ones more willing to sacrifice the people he forced into this war while the other is willing to let his own world die for the sake of them. A sad an hopeful end to this action packed game and even the characters of Megatron and Optimus in a way.
is sad how megatron is not really evil, he just wanna return home but he never realize, earth is a new chance to live, optimus for other side have sorrow of destroy the last chance to recover his home but as he says "i have the courage to make the right choice" transformers really becames deep specially in videogames
These themes truly hit like a truck. (No pun intend) I’m Here starts off slow, as if to prepare for the final showdown. This is it. You’re fighting the final villain, everything comes down to this. Then the guitar kicks in. The fight’s only getting started, and as the intensity continues, there it is. I’M HERE. The fight’s now kicked into full gear. You’re sweating (Probably, never played Frontiers) as the fight gets more intense, until you beat the boss, and everything slows down again as everything returns back to normal. Then there’s The End. It starts off energetic. This is it, you’ve reached the TRUE TRUE end. This is the REAL final boss. The ultimate villain that threatens the universe. It all comes down to this. And then the theme kicks in. You’re doing it, keep going. You’re almost there, keep trying. It gets more intense as it shows that there might be hope to stop this guy. It keeps going, the fight is intense, then just as you beat him, the theme slows down to say: “You did it.” Sonic has been no stranger to good music. From CD, to Adventure, to Unleashed, and now Frontiers, we’ve had some amazing tracks, like Never Turn Back, With Me, What I’m Made Of, too many to list. And I’m glad to say that Frontiers is keeping up with the tradition.
I am so glad I lived long enough to bear witness to this absolute masterpiece. I have thoroughly enjoyed Transformers: Devastation and Sonic: Frontiers, and it feels like -- to me -- that the two games were meant for eachother. It's enough to bring a tear to my eye.
You know , seeing how the song of the end Boss Battle is titled "i'm with you" seeing how that can Apply to this Game in some way of how Optimus decide to sacrifice a way of saving cybertron and help humanity helps the song a lot on the message Both with i'm here , Also both combined make "i'm here, i'm with you"
I still think the True Final Boss for Frontiers in general is underapreciated The Ikaruga Reference is one thing But the fact its the first Story heavy focused final boss in the series like how Yoko Taro games does it is honestly pretty great Because the thing is, it doesnt show about the destination about Frontiers, its the entire journey Sonic been through He has his own personal growth to actually have insight on other characters And seeing his friends having their own personal growth and want to separate ways with him soo they can have their own character arc And the fact Frontiers is the MOST we see Super Sonic in the series
okay, so, you can do a yoko taro style boss dialogue without ruining the momentum of the game's ending, you can give a boss plenty of dialogue, you can even have an ikaruga reference... but...don't put the ikaruga reference as the final boss, because the game I paid money for was open world sonic doing devil may cry combos, and NOT ikaruga. the enemy's design is boring, its personality and motivations are one dimensional, and if I wanted to play ikaruga, I'd play ikaruga. a boss is meant to be a test of your skills in the game you've been playing. not a test of your skills in a little minigame that happens twice. Was it a cool, cinematic moment? Absolutely! Was I okay with the fact that it was the final phase of the boss and not phase 2/3, so I could end things properly as super sonic? Of course not. It's a great sequence, but it's definitely not what you want to end your game on, because the two things people tend to remember most are the best moment of a game and the last moment of a game, and this game deserves better than to be remembered for a jarring cut to an ikaruga boss instead of a sonic frontiers boss.
to add to my previous comment I'd like to bring up the final boss of black knight which does the whole yoko taro feel way better. she's talky, sonic argues against her points, they both espouse their philosophies as they clash, but it's still a character who...is a character. is motivated, is part of the story. And some good sonic bosses have had no real story presence, but they still work out just fine. like, biolizard, no personality, no motivation, just gonna kill because it kills...but it still works because everything about it is everything about shadow that he's had to grow past through the story, externalized as an enemy for him to defeat. the end is just this...out of view nothing for the whole game. its motivation is "I'm just gonna blow up everything because everything's going to be blown up by me." it's iblis, but it's as talky as mephiles, and that doesn't work.
I loe how both sides are being put to the test, one side who loves his home and will do anything to save it and one side who respects all life and wants to find a peaceful solution to bring cybertron back.
Honestly, Devastion is actually a great Sonic-like game. You've got the adrenaline-filled combat, the fast transportation modes, the rock music and the engaging storyline that pulls from previous mythos. If the vehicle sections were a bit more involved, i'd say it would be a perfect template on how to make a Sonic game. It's my best argument for why Platinum should make a Sonic game.
I love your Decision to have both supreme and the ends theme in this, and it makes so much sense since the final final battle between Optimus and megatron is a genuine heart to heart about their desire to save Cybertron
This was by far intense.Both wanted what's best for cybertron but they shared different visions of how they wanted it to be.Optimus wanted peace for Cybertron and his people whilst megatron sought violence against those who tortured him because he was once a slave,If you think about it Megatron was a fallen hero.These two may have had some disagreements about how they wanted Cybertron's Future to be,But both wanted what's best for their planet and their people.They were brothers once but now they fight.Optimus wanted to save Cybertron but that also means not harming the other species and their planets.Cybertron isn't just about Robot life,It's about all life,Organic or Robotic,A transformers or a human it's about all of them not just about servos and Gyros but also all living ordinary organisms and non organisms
Where the fuck you getting this fanfic information? Optimus was a random worker who was put near death by Megatron, who was a militar autobot who wanted to rule cybertron due to his arrogance.
I just want to add that the final fight here is what The End should have felt like. Aa much as I loved that fight in a storywise perspective, it would be cool if it was as difficult as this to show how The End is the strongest foe Sonic has fought so far. That could not have been his true form. Can't wait for the patch notes, hope they make it as epic as this. And music really does express emotion. It feels as climatic as The End did. It's like the final adventure, and you gotta give it all you got.
more people neet to know about transformer devastation, not only the story is pretty good but it also has the balls to the wall insane combo system and crazy boss fights like mgr and dmc
Omg literally everything is in sync in the final part. I'm glad that I am not the only one who thinks "I'm with you" is still a pretty good final boss theme. Its probably because of The End being a meh final boss. This theme would fit anywhere else like Hollow Knight or really any Kirby games final boss. I'm watching this multiple times because the dialogue and synchronization has me in awe...
You got me into this game,and i finished it too even a few days ago. Without ya,i probably even wouldnt know this game for the rest of my life XDD Edit:The End horrifyingly fits with Prime and Megatron's final battle in this game btw
The music pretty much changes this from a classic Optimus vs Megatron battle where they both live to fight another day, to pretty much an emotionally driven battle between two weary warriors facing each other in one climatic final battle. Like the second phase with them talking literally feels like Optimus has no choice but to end Megatron once and for all.
ever since i saw your combo showcase video for transformers devastation you gave me the insipiration to make content of my own for transformers devastation cause like you i wanted to spread the name of the game so that everyone on earth can play this underapreciated masterpiece that i consider to be platinums best game so its safe to say you made another great video lovely combos as always loved the megs qte cool beans
I like how after optimus beats the brakes off of megatron and destroys the Ferrotaxis hes just like "Welp, I have no safe way down, time to fall to my death."
Damn, I forgot how amazing this game was. I got the digital copy for the PS4, I definitely need to buy the physical and play it again. Also this was amazing, as a hardcore Sonic fan, and a Transformers fan to boot, this hit me in all the levels.
Megatron honestly was a bit of an idiot with that failsafe. He should know by now that Optimus would 100% destroy that thing to keep Earth and the life inhabiting it safe.
This is really good, i would really love to see the plot of devastation adapted into a feature film, more now that the transformers cinematic universe is going for a more gen 1 feel
@@MariusUrucu I play this game a lot, as well. I even played it at my friend's house earlier, today. And it's still fun as heck play. And I am a Bumblebee main in this game. He, in my opinion, is the best character in the game to play as. I love the way he fights. Well, clearly I love the way all of the characters fight in the game, of course. And I really don't think this game will never ever get old play. But, there's something wrong with my copy, though. It won't load the game up to 100% for something. So, now I won't be able to the game fully. I absolutely have no idea how happened. We tried to fix it, but it still doesn't work. Maybe I need a new copy of the game or something. Because I still want to play more and more of the game. Even if I already 100%ed the game entirely. And another thing, you're still awesome at the game, as usual. Like that one person said in this comment section. You clearly play 5x better than I do. So, keep up the good work, bro.
@@dantetouchdown9030 I got all of the achievements in the game, as well. And, Marius Urucu here kind of inspired me to play like a god in this game. Which, I definitely do play like a god in this game. Mostly as Bumblebee, my second favorite Transformers character, of course. And I almost done 100%ing the game. I just need to clear all of the remaining challenges with SS ranks in all 5 difficulties.
Bless you for bringing new life to not only one of the most underrated games but one of my favorite games of all time. It truly works well with the music from Frontiers and commend you for making them fit with each of these videos.
This is a really special video. It gives off the right vibes, especially when Optimus and Megatron have their final showdown in space with the Final Boss Theme from Sonic Frontiers playing in the background.
Those were the best combos I’ve ever seen in this game. I’ve finished prime difficulty (with heavy item usage) but you were doing moves I’ve never seen before.
I know nothing of Transformers outside of Peter Cullen and Frank Welker as Optimus and Megatron respectively, and seeing Revenge of the Fallen, but I wouldn't be surprised if this was the actual soundtrack
8:58 this is why Optimus Prime is my Childhood Hero. The way he say it touches my heart and soul and drove me to tears. 😢🙌🏼❤️ This is why I want Transformers in the Super Robot Wars Series.

Sonic has been no stranger to good music. From CD, to Adventure, to Unleashed, and now Frontiers, we’ve had some amazing tracks, like Never Turn Back, With Me, What I’m Made Of, too many to list. And I’m glad to say that Frontiers is keeping up with the tradition.
I am so glad I lived long enough to bear witness to this absolute masterpiece. I have thoroughly enjoyed Transformers: Devastation and Sonic: Frontiers, and it feels like -- to me -- that the two games were meant for eachother. It's enough to bring a tear to my eye.
Ok, The End theme plus this ending fits so well.
3:12 it fitted so well in this part
This just makes me wonder what a conversation between Optimus and Sonic would be like and how their personalities would mesh
I mean IDW has both rights in comics so maybe someday.
Sonic's basically if Sideswipe was as fast as Blurr; he'd be a familiar beat for Prime.
@@sonictj3 IDW is gonna lose the license to Transformers at the end of this year
@@sonictj3 If MLP of all things can crossover with TF I don't see why Sonic can't
@@theinkslicer SEGA and HASBRO ya bastards, i need Super Optimus and Sonicus Prime on desk by tomorrow!
The music having swelled up like it had with Optimus giving his "You must be stopped!" line honestly gave me chills, damn-
The scene of Optimus falling from space to Earth. That's just pure perfection. Just. Pure. PERFECTION.
You know , seeing how the song of the end Boss Battle is titled "i'm with you" seeing how that can Apply to this Game in some way of how Optimus decide to sacrifice a way of saving cybertron and help humanity helps the song a lot on the message
Both with i'm here , Also both combined make "i'm here, i'm with you"
love that this no-hit fight is the same as optimus single-handedly tearing megatron apart in Dark of the Moon
I LOVE how “I’m with you” plays as Optimus falls to Earth while giving his speech - the beautiful piano music goes so well with his message
This proves "I'm with you" can be such an amazing song used in the right fight. Hopefully they keep it on the reworked final boss in the expansion.
I still think the True Final Boss for Frontiers in general is underapreciated
The Ikaruga Reference is one thing
But the fact its the first Story heavy focused final boss in the series like how Yoko Taro games does it is honestly pretty great
Because the thing is, it doesnt show about the destination about Frontiers, its the entire journey Sonic been through
He has his own personal growth to actually have insight on other characters
And seeing his friends having their own personal growth and want to separate ways with him soo they can have their own character arc
And the fact Frontiers is the MOST we see Super Sonic in the series
I liked "The End's" monologue and for what it was worth, the Ikaruga gameplay was fun.
okay, so, you can do a yoko taro style boss dialogue without ruining the momentum of the game's ending, you can give a boss plenty of dialogue, you can even have an ikaruga reference...
but...don't put the ikaruga reference as the final boss, because the game I paid money for was open world sonic doing devil may cry combos, and NOT ikaruga. the enemy's design is boring, its personality and motivations are one dimensional, and if I wanted to play ikaruga, I'd play ikaruga.
a boss is meant to be a test of your skills in the game you've been playing. not a test of your skills in a little minigame that happens twice. Was it a cool, cinematic moment? Absolutely! Was I okay with the fact that it was the final phase of the boss and not phase 2/3, so I could end things properly as super sonic? Of course not. It's a great sequence, but it's definitely not what you want to end your game on, because the two things people tend to remember most are the best moment of a game and the last moment of a game, and this game deserves better than to be remembered for a jarring cut to an ikaruga boss instead of a sonic frontiers boss.
Said boss, like Nier: Automata, also have this implicit "overcoming existential odds via love and connections" theme going on there, which is nice.
to add to my previous comment I'd like to bring up the final boss of black knight which does the whole yoko taro feel way better. she's talky, sonic argues against her points, they both espouse their philosophies as they clash, but it's still a character who...is a character. is motivated, is part of the story.
And some good sonic bosses have had no real story presence, but they still work out just fine. like, biolizard, no personality, no motivation, just gonna kill because it kills...but it still works because everything about it is everything about shadow that he's had to grow past through the story, externalized as an enemy for him to defeat.
the end is just this...out of view nothing for the whole game. its motivation is "I'm just gonna blow up everything because everything's going to be blown up by me." it's iblis, but it's as talky as mephiles, and that doesn't work.
@@sigurdgram What about the Drakengard Games Hidden Final Boss?
They didnt have any dialogue
It was just ominous
Dude Peter Cullen and Frank Welker went hard on this, they put their heart and soul into the voices on this game, absolutely amazing.
These are just really well-edited. The timing on 4:30 especially.
ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!
MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA!
I loe how both sides are being put to the test, one side who loves his home and will do anything to save it and one side who respects all life and wants to find a peaceful solution to bring cybertron back.
I forgot how good this game was.
Honestly, Devastion is actually a great Sonic-like game. You've got the adrenaline-filled combat, the fast transportation modes, the rock music and the engaging storyline that pulls from previous mythos. If the vehicle sections were a bit more involved, i'd say it would be a perfect template on how to make a Sonic game. It's my best argument for why Platinum should make a Sonic game.
"The humans will decide their own fate"
Optiumis i love you but without alien intervention we are 100% going to kill ourselves with nukes.
7:45 The Whole sequence is Perfect
I love your Decision to have both supreme and the ends theme in this, and it makes so much sense since the final final battle between Optimus and megatron is a genuine heart to heart about their desire to save Cybertron
This was by far intense.Both wanted what's best for cybertron but they shared different visions of how they wanted it to be.Optimus wanted peace for Cybertron and his people whilst megatron sought violence against those who tortured him because he was once a slave,If you think about it Megatron was a fallen hero.These two may have had some disagreements about how they wanted Cybertron's Future to be,But both wanted what's best for their planet and their people.They were brothers once but now they fight.Optimus wanted to save Cybertron but that also means not harming the other species and their planets.Cybertron isn't just about Robot life,It's about all life,Organic or Robotic,A transformers or a human it's about all of them not just about servos and Gyros but also all living ordinary organisms and non organisms
You starting to sound like Optimus for real!
Where the fuck you getting this fanfic information?
Optimus was a random worker who was put near death by Megatron, who was a militar autobot who wanted to rule cybertron due to his arrogance.
This is how playing with Transformers figures fresh out of the box felt like.
this just kinda makes it more emotional... more than what its going for
Damn, when “I’m With You” started playing I was almost in tears
Surprisingly more fitting here than the final boss in Sonic Frontiers. I love it.
No, both final boss is the best thing to watch and fitting you idiot.
I just want to add that the final fight here is what The End should have felt like. Aa much as I loved that fight in a storywise perspective, it would be cool if it was as difficult as this to show how The End is the strongest foe Sonic has fought so far. That could not have been his true form. Can't wait for the patch notes, hope they make it as epic as this.
And music really does express emotion. It feels as climatic as The End did. It's like the final adventure, and you gotta give it all you got.
more people neet to know about transformer devastation, not only the story is pretty good but it also has the balls to the wall insane combo system and crazy boss fights like mgr and dmc
Optimus Prime: Your Decepticon is over, give me the Ferrotaxis.
Megatron: If you want it. Then you’ll have to take it. But you already know that.
Omg literally everything is in sync in the final part. I'm glad that I am not the only one who thinks "I'm with you" is still a pretty good final boss theme. Its probably because of The End being a meh final boss. This theme would fit anywhere else like Hollow Knight or really any Kirby games final boss. I'm watching this multiple times because the dialogue and synchronization has me in awe...
You got me into this game,and i finished it too even a few days ago.
Without ya,i probably even wouldnt know this game for the rest of my life XDD
Edit:The End horrifyingly fits with Prime and Megatron's final battle in this game btw
I haven't heard of this game until i stumble upon your videos and now i need to play this ASAP. Thanks Sonic Frontiers.
The music pretty much changes this from a classic Optimus vs Megatron battle where they both live to fight another day, to pretty much an emotionally driven battle between two weary warriors facing each other in one climatic final battle. Like the second phase with them talking literally feels like Optimus has no choice but to end Megatron once and for all.
You legit can put most if not all Sonic Frontiers boss music to just about any epic fight and it will fit.
ever since i saw your combo showcase video for transformers devastation you gave me the insipiration to make content of my own for transformers devastation cause like you i wanted to spread the name of the game so that everyone on earth can play this underapreciated masterpiece that i consider to be platinums best game so its safe to say you made another great video lovely combos as always loved the megs qte cool beans
i’m so happy my copy of this game is still working, this is why it’s aged like a fine wine and a damn shame it isn’t being sold anymore
*_"Follow me, Optimus Prime, I'm standing at the border of everything..."_*
This is a banger of an edit. Hits as hard as this fight, but with "The Touch"
That was truly awesome and amazing at the same time. Please do more of this with the other bosses in this game, please.
"I understand now, Megatron. This universe, no matter how vast, will never be big enough for the both of us..." -Optimus Prime
God, why cant we get a sequel? you know, i feel like the sequel needs to happen. because this game truly...got the touch.
I like how after optimus beats the brakes off of megatron and destroys the Ferrotaxis hes just like "Welp, I have no safe way down, time to fall to my death."
Megatron whipping out Zanzokens and Spirit Bombs. He musta been training with Goku.
You mean goku black
Damn, I forgot how amazing this game was. I got the digital copy for the PS4, I definitely need to buy the physical and play it again.
Also this was amazing, as a hardcore Sonic fan, and a Transformers fan to boot, this hit me in all the levels.
Optimus in all other forms of media: an equal match to megatron
Optimus in this game: LITERALLY SHREDS HIM TO PIECES WITH THESE COMBOS
There's something about reading "Settle the score" under your objective which makes the situation that much cooler
It shockingly works for this boss fight lol and considering the history between these two it really works
I'm with you sonic frontiers
6:59 this entire exchange goes so fucking crazy, like god damn the writing in this game is so good
I've always wanted to play this game looks like a lot of fun. Great job.
Megatron honestly was a bit of an idiot with that failsafe. He should know by now that Optimus would 100% destroy that thing to keep Earth and the life inhabiting it safe.
FINALLY this game is getting the attention it deserves! ALSO the soundtrack for this game and Sonic Frontiers are literally my absolute favorite!!!
Ngl Megatron would be an awesome antagonist for Sonic.
They both fight for freedom, but one through tyranny and the other through saving.
This goes hard as fuck especially with the history these two have
This is really good, i would really love to see the plot of devastation adapted into a feature film, more now that the transformers cinematic universe is going for a more gen 1 feel
amazing... both games' endings take place just out of reach of the planet's gravitational pull
That wasn''t just kickass, it was beautiful.
The greatest game of "No U" ever, now with Sonic Frontiers music
Why does this fit so well? For real this is satisfying as hell
I mean the music is nice and all but your gameplay is godlike!
I played this game... a lot.
@@MariusUrucu i only ever platinumed it, and then left it, but now i have an itch to come back again, thanks to you
@@MariusUrucu I play this game a lot, as well. I even played it at my friend's house earlier, today. And it's still fun as heck play. And I am a Bumblebee main in this game. He, in my opinion, is the best character in the game to play as. I love the way he fights. Well, clearly I love the way all of the characters fight in the game, of course. And I really don't think this game will never ever get old play. But, there's something wrong with my copy, though. It won't load the game up to 100% for something. So, now I won't be able to the game fully. I absolutely have no idea how happened. We tried to fix it, but it still doesn't work. Maybe I need a new copy of the game or something. Because I still want to play more and more of the game. Even if I already 100%ed the game entirely.
And another thing, you're still awesome at the game, as usual. Like that one person said in this comment section. You clearly play 5x better than I do. So, keep up the good work, bro.
@@dantetouchdown9030 I got all of the achievements in the game, as well. And, Marius Urucu here kind of inspired me to play like a god in this game. Which, I definitely do play like a god in this game. Mostly as Bumblebee, my second favorite Transformers character, of course. And I almost done 100%ing the game. I just need to clear all of the remaining challenges with SS ranks in all 5 difficulties.
@@brandonyoung5143 nice, I remember maining sideswipe, i enjoyed his speed and vehicle attacks
“You don’t have the manifolds” imma used that 😂🤣😂
Bless you for bringing new life to not only one of the most underrated games but one of my favorite games of all time. It truly works well with the music from Frontiers and commend you for making them fit with each of these videos.
This is a really special video. It gives off the right vibes, especially when Optimus and Megatron have their final showdown in space with the Final Boss Theme from Sonic Frontiers playing in the background.
Those were the best combos I’ve ever seen in this game. I’ve finished prime difficulty (with heavy item usage) but you were doing moves I’ve never seen before.
I know nothing of Transformers outside of Peter Cullen and Frank Welker as Optimus and Megatron respectively, and seeing Revenge of the Fallen, but I wouldn't be surprised if this was the actual soundtrack
Don’t really know why megatron would think Optimus prime wouldn’t destroy the federal taxes.
Shame you can't buy this masterpiece without a physical copy anymore... good thing I got my copy at release.
This fit way too well
It's a crime this game got delisted, amazing work bro
4:30 Perfection
8:58
this is why Optimus Prime is my Childhood Hero. The way he say it touches my heart and soul and drove me to tears.
😢🙌🏼❤️
This is why I want Transformers in the Super Robot Wars Series.
God bless you Peter Cullen for the wonderful Voice Performance as Optimus Prime.
And you too Marius for the Fantastic editing of the video,you got yourself a subscriber
God, both songs fit this fight so well!!
3:14
BRO, THE TIMING
So Star Convoy is basically Optimus Prime with the Chaos Emeralds unless you run with the weird golden Lio Convoy.
MT:Our home Shall live again!
OP:We will find a Way to save Cybertron, But I cannot Allow you to Destroy Earth…
