TMNT 4: Turtles In Time

[Newton Gimmick]

So I played through TMNT 4, aka Turtles In Time with my brother tonight. I was Leonardo, while he was Donatello. I have to say, besides the ORIGINAL Arcade game this has to be one of the best TMNT games ever. Its a simple game, where you fight Hundred of Foot, of all kinds and colors...

But you also fight Baxter (Cool Fly version), The Mousers, those little robots that kidnapped Rocksteady and Bebop, Rat King in one of the old Foot Badguy vehicles, Shredder in a vehicle, Giant Krang, Krang in the Android body, Leatherhead, Tokka and Rahzar, Rocksteady and Bebop, MetalHead and even Slash!

This game has a all out roster of great TMNT villans...Including...SUPER-SHREDDER! Thats right Boys and girls, Kevin Nash style.

Anyway just beat it tonight, which is the first time I really played it. I think all TMNT fans should check it out on either SNES, or a rom of it. Its a really good old school beat em up, in the style of the Arcade game.

Awesome game. I can only hope Konami makes the games for the new TMNT half this good.

turtles in time is such a great game

Mmm-Hmm. :nod: It's gotta be up there in the top ten side-scrolling action/arcade games -- somewhere around the Simpson's arcade game. :D

[PWDESAI]

you know it!
that simpsons arcade game rocked, but tmnt 2 and 3 and 4 are always gonna rock, 1 just sucked... i'm sorry but it did... it was like a 2/10

[Newton Gimmick]

I liked 1, alot. It is totally different then any other TMNT game, plus it has all the major character, that BITCHIN underwater world, and the Turtle Van.

But it is freaking hard, and so different, where TMNT 4 is a suped up version of the Arcade game with all the good cameos and its a great 2 player game.

I challenge anyone to take on Slash from Turtles IV by his or herself. That dude is hard! Even with two players, you lose at least a life or two. I don't like the fact that Slash can block your kicks and punches, but you can't block his slicing and dicing.

And it doesn't matter how many times I try, I can not for the life of me figure out how to throw foot soldiers at the screen when Shredder is in that machine with those lobster-like claws grabbing for you. If it wasn't for two player mode, I'd be stuck on that level forever!

Yea those are the two tough levels. I can throw guys at Shredder pretty easy, and Super Shredder is kinda tough, but Slash pure whooped my ass for a while.

There is no real pattern as to when you can hit him, you just have to take some shots.

That is the easiest tmnt game, but still a good one. The First arcade game is a little better, but this comes a close second. Nes coversion of the original wasn't that good compared, but Conversion of TMNT in time is as good as the aracde version.

[PWDESAI]

actually the arcade game blows, it automatically makes you die to eat your quarters. so there's no way to master the game. The nes version is a lot better

[Karpo_007]

The nes version is a lot better


:lol: LMAO :lol:

[PWDESAI]

well i didn't see ninja turtles 1 on that site at all... plus that's one website not official or anything, it's a fact that tmnt 1 just isn't that good.

[Nickokapo]

Pwdesai are you talking about tmnt 1 for nes or arcade?
If you're talking about the nes one, i agree i didn't liked it =P but the arcade one's great.

Ah yes... Throwing Foot Soldiers at Shredder. A favorite past-time of mine. ;) Here's how you do it: Hit the Foot Soldier so that he's stunned (bending over, clutching his stomach). The press the left (or right... whichever direction you're facing) button plus the attack button. That should do it.

well i didn't see ninja turtles 1 on that site at all... plus that's one website not official or anythingARE YOU FRIGGIN BLIND???????? IT'S THE FIRST ONE ON THAT LIST!!!!!t's a fact that tmnt 1 just isn't that good.Fact? Can it be proven? I'm sorry, P man, but your personal preferences are NOT the universal norm, in case you didn't know.

That's always the tricky part of the game, but it's a heck of alota fun!

My favorite part of Turtles in Time is the train in the old west because it reminds me of the climax in Back to the Future Part 3!
