original TMNT arcade game as an unlockable again? Maybe they will have the original voices and music this time. Or it could possible be Turtles in Time

[Tigerfog]

Oh no.
Not Shredder again.
It could've had an original character like Slashuur in Battle Nexus, but...
Oh well, I won't complain. It's TMNT so it should be pretty decent! ^O^

[Spitfire]

TMNT 3 brings the mutated reptiles back for some more martial arts beat downs on the evil Shredder and his minions. Based on characters from the comic series, Mutant Nightmare lets up to four gamers play simultaneously as any one of the turtles, whose powers are upgraded as they progress through the game. The console versions will feature the original TMNT arcade game as unlockable content. Look for TMNT 3: Mutant Nightmare this fall.

Hey they added the power upgrade thing I suggested cool. I think it'll be TMNT 4 that they add on it would be stupid otherwise. Anyways that might be a typo but the whole comic thing sounds intriguing

[Coola Yagami]

Didn't TMNT 2- Battle Nexus already have the TMNT arcade game in it?

[Ninja Tiptup]

Well now I've got a reason to get a DS.

Hopefully they'll throw out the platform elements from Battle Nexus.

It'd be a let down if that wasn't Turtles in Time unless they can get the rights to the music and sound clips. Otherwise... That's quite pointless.

(..oo that's tight..)

[cowabunga14]

I hope this game is better than the last three games. I just think the controls could be really reponsive and tight. The camera controls shouldn't be clunky. I hope they aren't. I wonder if we'll get to fight Bishop. That'd be intresting. There should be more than one unlockable game though. Torunament Fighters would be a fun game worth unlockin'.

[marleynaki]

the new game is based of the season 3 or no??

[Demented Utrom]

It's going to be Turtles In time, this time. Since nobody will fall for having same game as unlockable twice.

Hopefully they went back to brawling only.Since there has been not a decent beat them up, game in awhile.

Console game

DS game

The handheld looks to be lightly different then the other 2

[Anarchistguy]

Man do those screens look tight...

[Ra]

:o....oh boy, here we go again :roll: I wonder if Konami actually plan to work on camra control and combos this time. Maybe they could have the VS mode back again. Top it all off with the turtles not yelling "Eat Feet!" or "Outta my way, nimrod!", keep the arcade game and I'm sold :D

[R-iZZy]

We all know Konami's just using the Turtle franchise for a quick buck... they aren't going to try anything extreme. But regardless, I'm getting it, because this looks like a step up from Battle Nexus. The graphics are pretty nice!

[PDM025]

Need to check the review! It sounds good to all what your saying.
Like TMNT 2: Battle Nexus.
It an OK game but there part I don't like.
Like the worst one of all is each turtle has to share 1 health meter.
I mean we have a better chance against an enemy with more players
but you have a better chance of getting a lot a damage.
Right now, I finish the game and doing the tournment mode and I can't finish the foot battle. I always end getting defeated by Karai.

[azure turtle]

Although the screens look awesome, I'm not gonna try and get my hopes too high. Sadly, Konami hasn't been giving the TMNT as much attention as there other titles. :(

[Spitfire]

They give assignments like TMNT to lower workers and new people since they spend most of their money and time on the Castlevania and Metal Gear series.

[Anarchistguy]

I just want to point out something:

I know this game is going to get the same crappy treatment as the previous two. when I said the screens looked tight, I was talking about the graphics.

[Spitfire]

This game could be the best TMNT ever and it would still get crap because people who review games are morons about it

[PDM025]

I got a couple of pictures of the game if anyone want to see.

E3 2005: TMNT3 Revealed
Turtle power has one hell of a battery life.
5/17/05
Konami Digital Entertainment revealed today that it would be publishing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Mutant Nightmare for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Nintendo GameCube later this fall. Developed by Konami Studios, Mutant Nightmare has been designed from the ground-up as a four-player action game.
For this third iteration, TMNT will introduce a number of new options that weren't available for the previous two games -- Evolving characters, team-based combo attacks, and the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle arcade game are just a few of the includes that have been announced so far, and Konami reps have hinted that there are a few more down the pipeline.
We'll be back with hands-on impressions of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Nightmare later on in the show. Check back with us then, for more.
All in http://www.ign.com/

[Gokhan]

it looks as if in this game we can give commands for our cpu team mates. the one picture has move out and another has team attack. if u hit a certian way on the d-pad

[PizzaPower]

all I have to say about this game is that I am getting it. I have TMNT 1 and 2 for the ps2, and the konami website said there is going to be vehicles, so I hope that we get to drive the Battle Shell, and maybe there will be the NES tmnt game for unlocking, that would be cool. But turtles in time is cool to.

[SWAT_KAT_RAZOR]

Haven't played Ps2 TMNT yet.
Heard it kicked ass morely like an Mortal Kombat style Adventure/RPG
for TMNT..
I just want it because Casey Jones is playable!! :)

[Donny]

Hopefully we can play with casey wearing his mask this time.

[marleynaki]

hey guys see this:

[R-iZZy]

Holy sh*t, look at that rating! Bajeezers... do these people just try to put the turtles down or what?

[Spitfire]

Wow that was gay....It was an Ad for like 4 things. The show, the toys, the GBA game, and the console game. Smooth <_<
Yeah uhh the turtles turning into some queer looking super forms and fighting the Shredder from Same As It Never Was isnt a very exciting concept. I can see why that trailer got put down it was hardly even a trailer

[NeoBix]

Would be awesome if you can unlock Shredder as a playable character in this one. I wonder if the turtles will be able to gain levels like in an RPG-action game like Gauntlet Legends or Baldur's Gate.

Also, if it's Turtles in Time that's unlockable in this one, that would be SWEEEET!!!!

The super nintendo and genesis versions (on genesis it was called The Hyperstone Heist) were pretty damn good arcade-translations, but this one would probably be arcade-perfect, with the exception of the music and sound if they do that gay BS again in this one over that copyright crap like they did in Battle Nexus. oh well, I still hope it's Turtles in Time!! :P

I think they dont care anymore. I was on the TMNT site earlier and they posted the old toon DVDs up there. They said they couldnt because because Fred Wolf wouldnt let them but I guess now he doesnt care

[NeoBix]

awesome I really hope that is true. would be great to have the original music on there too.

[classictmnt3]

if if it is turtles in time wich is awsome i hope they have the great tunes there cool and i dont think they would but i would want them to add 4 playeer to turtles in time and not ruin it that would be cool and the trailer only talked about ds i dont even care about that one but i head the 3rd turtle game is goin to be about helping ur team a lot ...sounds cool ;)

[classictmnt3]

i heard that they r putting in the original arcade game ...again thats dumb thinking if they r

[Spitfire]

No one is THAT stupid, I wouldnt worry

yeah It would be Better to have it originally or TMNT IV Turtles in Time on it.

[Jonatello]

if they do include the original arcade game again I hope they have dipswitch settings this time or atleast difficulty levels

[Spitfire]

Or maybe the soundtrack and voice acting....that really sucked. The same song through all the levels....lame ass

[marleynaki]

i have one question...
why is coming out this game first for x-box and later for ps2 and gc.?

[TMNT-Leonardo]

I think they dont care anymore. I was on the TMNT site earlier and they posted the old toon DVDs up there. They said they couldnt because because Fred Wolf wouldnt let them but I guess now he doesnt care

That's not the reason. It's cause they don't have the rights to reporduce images from Fred Wolf Productions. The site obviously has the Ninja Turtle rights, but Fred Wolf Productions has the rights to the original 80s cartoon.

[Taloniss]

Gamespot (http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/tmnt3/preview_6131400.html) has a new preview of Mutant Nightmare up, and is reporting that you can unlock the arcade version of Turtles in Time, albeit with a few minor changes (the music, for legal rights, and they've added more enemies to the game)

[Gary]

It says "Rap" instead of 'Raph.' :(

[Anarchistguy]

Is it just me or are the combos faster in this game?

[NeoBix]

Is it just me or are the combos faster in this game?

yeah they are... and thank God ;)

[Anarchistguy]

Indeed. They remind me of the ones in "Mutant Melee"

[Gary]

Maybe it's just me, but this game looks a lot better than the previous two.

[Zog]

I think what would make the game really good is that, you should be able to switch to the other turtles during the gamplay, make it like X-Men Legends. Then TMNT would blow out.

[R-iZZy]

Hell yeah! I just got X-Men: Legends a few weeks ago (yeah, I'm late)... and I'm addicted to the game. The thing is that the TMNT franchise is only known for beat-'em-ups... and I doubt Konami would put in the effort to raise the quality and put it in RPG form. They figure it's simply just kids who'll drag their parents to any gamestore to get it, no matter what, so forget the effort.

At least they ARE making improvements. No more shared health meter. *phew*

[cosmos]

when will this game be published? in this October?
