History Trivia / TransformersWarForCybertron

*** For his speaking appearance in the Gamestop commercial, Shockwave is reprised by CoreyBurton.

* OldShame: CoreyBurton, who voiced Shockwave (SteveBlum does it in the game proper) in the DLC commercial for the game, said that the gag nature and rushed performance seemed OutOfCharacter and that he felt he [[InNameOnly barely sounded like Shockwave at all]].

** From the Italian dub: while Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Ratchet have the same voices as their ''[[TransformersAnimated Animated]]'' selves, we have some WesternAnimation/BeastWars guys between the voices: Megatron is Terrorsaur and Starscream is Quickstrike. Also, Jetfire and Soundwave are respectively [[{{Yu-Gi-Oh}} Tristan and Pegasus]], and Air Raid is [[DragonBall Piccolo]]. Just ''awesome''.

* IKnewIt: ''TransformersPrime'' is set in the same universe as "[=WfC=]'' and [[spoiler: during Ratchet's recap of the events during "One Shall Rise, Part 3" confirms that the being listed only as "Core" in the credits was indeed Primus.]]

** Nolan North is Brawl.

** Starscream's voice [[SamRiegel gives him super-strength]]!
*** Although Starscream sounds more like [[GurrenLagann Viral]], which is hilarious when you consider that JohnnyYongBosch (Bumblebee) voiced Rossiu and JamiesonPrice (Warpath) voiced Lordgenome.

** Isaac C. "[[{{Hellsing}} Incognito]]/[[PiratesOfTheCaribbean Bo'sun]]/[[StreetFighterIV Sagat]]" Singleton Jr. is Soundwave and [[spoiler: The Core of Cybetron/Primus]].

** JohnnyYongBosch [[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/war-for-cybertron-johnny-yong-bosch-to-voice-bumblebee/18217/ is Bumblebee]].
** StevenBlum is the Narrator, Barricade, Shockwave, Cliffjumper, and Ramjet.

*** Although Starscream sounds more like Viral... which is hilarious when you consider that JohnnyYongBosch voiced Rossiu.
** TravisWillingham as Sideswipe and Hot Spot

** Graham "[[Series/TwentyFour Mikhail Novakovich]]/[[WesternAnimation/AvengersEarthsMightiestHeroes Lo]][[HulkVs ki]]/[[VideoGame/{{Infamous}} Bertrand]]" [=McTavish=] as Thundercracker.

*** This basically means the voice cast (with a few exceptions like Optimus, Megatron, Brawl & Thundercracker to name a few) is a [[RelationshipVoiceActor semi]]-[[DotHackGUGames .hack//G.U.]] reunion.
