The graphics are very good and the game is awesome. Everyone who gets this videogame will have fun for a long long time. But I have a question, Why you put this NGC game in a NEOGEO page? Please someone from Amazon answer this question

Great game but VERY long...

This game is very reminicent of the older geration TMNT games but it's MUCH more action packed...Anyone who thinks that this is the 4th TMNT game brought to a Nintendo system obviously forgets that there were 3 TMNT action games and a fighting game released for the NES,TMNT IV and TMNT Tournamrnt fighter for SNES and the 3 TMNT games released for Gameboy...

This new game, as well as, the new FoxBox cartoon, is based on the comic book, while the old school games are based on the older cartoon from more than a decade ago. I'm very impressed with this game EXCEPT for the ending...The ending IS NOT worth the effort you put into this game(4-5+ HOURS!!)...

I just hope the sequel's ending will be better than the ending for this otherwise fun game. My ONLY gripe about this game is the repetitive sound effects get annoying after a while...

Classic beat-'em-up

If you loved the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game and "Turtles in Time," then you will definitely like this version. Everyone below have basically said what needs to be said. The only thing I want to add is this:

The tournament part of the game is PURE crap. It will not matter what level you set the game to in this mode, as they are all EXACTLY the same: Super Cheese Mode. Furthermore, the "POW" text gets in the way, while you're fighting and the camera angles are terrible. For some strange and unusual reason, the developers of the game got the "ingenious" idea that a overhead camera shot of a dual is a great way to fight. It's like trying to fight with insects.

Also, the game is only 2 players. How ridiculous is that?

Great game! Excellent for any TMNT fan!

This is a pretty challenging game in "Story Mode". Basically you pick a primary character (Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael or Michaelangelo) and you are assisted by the 2nd player who plays one of the other turtles. You are faced by a range of opponents, from street punks and mechanical robots to "boss" characters that need multiple, multiple strikes to beat.

This game encourages good team play because together you can defeat most enemies and not lose much health in the process. Individually, some of the enemies are near impossible to beat.

I only have one complaint (and this is on the Gamecube version).. certain scenes where many mechanical robot "dogs" come out are slow due to the processor getting overburdened with refreshing both the players' and robots actions. You can actually feel game play slow down. As you eliminate the robots, game play picks up speed.

Aside from that, game graphics and sound are pretty good.

I actually discovered an "Easter Egg" when we played the game on Halloween. The programmers wrote a function which changed the Turtles' heads to.... Pumpkins!! I wonder what surprise will happen as we roll into other holidays like Easter! Bunny heads maybe??

Worst game on the Cube

I wish that instead of insulting us 80's children they could do some justice for such a great series. This game was Final Fight, minus all cool combos and awesome boss fights. Audio clips were minimal and repetative. Cutscenes were poorly animated, if at all. Boo

excellent

I have played every TMNT game since I was a wee lad and now again we have another awsome incarnation of the heros in the half shell. The story mode that directly plays to the new TV series is great along with the awsome cell shading effect.

All in all Konomi and Nintendo have made yet another hit and I highly recomend anyone buy this totally rad game.

Most Impressive

Well, I have to admit this was an impulse purchase. I was a big fan of TMNT as a kid, and now as an adult with the means, I just had to try this game out. I was impressed by the graphics, looks just like an after school cartoon. I was disapointed by the fact that it is only two-player. The developers must not have realized that all new game systems have four player ability. And I have to agree, the tournament mode Sucks! Good luck trying to get a lick in against the computer. I've only been able to win once. But the story mode more than makes up for it. If you're a Turtle fan, you won't be dissapointed. If you're still aprehensive, you can always rent it first!

Reminisant

I bought this game because i was a huge fan back in the day when the original turtles were around. The game was very well done, but it does get repetious. But it looks good and plays good. The only gripe i have about the game is its saving. I think it should save after every stage instead of every level. But i am having a blast with it and suggest it to anybody whom are fans now or where back when they really kicked butt.

your enemies will wish they had a shell to hide in

When I heard that there was a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game coming out I thought everything seems to have the ability to make a comeback. I remember playing the classic TMNT games over a decade ago. You know the ones on the NES. They were alot of fun. The funny thing is that it seemed that there was a little more to those classic games than just slicing and dicing your way to the next level. That's pretty much what you do in story mode. Oh and theres also a vs. mode. It's a fighting game with a couple of unlockable fighters. I have to say this is a great game to pop in and play with a friend or family member. And who could complain about the liquid smooth look of the game. The graphics are beautiful. Now alot of people say the game is very repetitious, well it is somewhat, however what makes it seem more repetitious is the spoken dialogue by the turtles. Stuff like "crack the whip", "shell shocker", "shell-nato", "turtle wax", "batter up", "anyone for stickball? I'm the stick you be the ball", "coming at ya", "raw hide" and more. You can picture it , I'm sure. Another thing, the words that pop up when you hit the enemies can be removed by going to options and turning them off. I thought that was cool because they got bothersome after a while. If you enjoy a no nonsense smash and bash.. this should be on your menu, and I'd say go ahead and order it.
