TMNT Battle Nexus, how is it?

[Quiet_Guy]

I rented the game a while ago but due to my work schedule I wasn't able to play it. How is it? I also noticed it's two disc (gamecube version) why is that?

It's pretty cool. There are so many levels of the game, they had to put a few on a second disc. It's a four-player with hidden characters, costumes, etc. That's all. But, the only thing I disliked about the game was that You have to get all of the rings or w/e in the race stages in order to gather all the crystals to unlock all the Turtles' abilities. I've never been able to accomplish that. :(

It's way better than the first PS2 TMNT game, that's for damn sure. It still isn't perfect, and for some reason it got poorer reviews than its predecessor, but it's pretty kick-ass. Lots of levels, secret characters, and the levels are much improved -- no more barriers!

no more barriers? i was playin it the other day with my sister, and i ran into a lot of places that i couldn't go.....is that what u were referring to?

I say worth playing just for the extra cut scenes. All new stuff and characters.

Well in the first game, some of the levels were very cramped and static, and most of them forced you to dispose of every enemy in a certain tiny area before being able to advance further down the hall, for instance. Any time you'd try to do so, you'd run into a huge invisible wall. It was poorly concieved, and I just hated that so much. 'Totally took you out of the experience.

There aren't anymore of those in Battle Nexus. I imagine there are still places you can't go in the levels, and they're certainly not free-roaming like Grand Theft Auto, but they're much improved.

ok, now that us say it like that, it definitely makes sense, i hated that in the first game, guess i haven't played it in a while so i didnt remember that until now (but then again, that first game had a lot of flaws:( ) until now, the games have been alright, progressively better everytime, and that Mutant Melee game was pretty entertaining for a while, but still don't hold a stick to the old concole games...which didn't have half the technology, so i hope this new game is a lot better (either way i'm sure i'll play it a lot, and have to beat it, haha)

Personally I find Mutant Nightmare to be the best Turtles game for the current consoles. Great levels, great graphics, and it even had an upgrades system for advanced combos and special abilities. Very cool indeed.

well yeah it was the best:) my bad that i didn't make it more clear, because i just said it got better every game, i just got off track when i started talkin about the melee game, the only problem i had with Mutant Melee is that it got too repetitive for when u had to fight the enemies and get the gems, but then that can be said for the previous games that they were repetitive
