They said "Turtles In Time" was the best beat'em up of all time.

Hyper Stone was a crap re-do of TiT, I felt like the bosses were to forced*They all repeated and I remember one room with all the bosses in the game over again* I don't know I just didn't dig it.

I did however find the sprites to be more detailed.

I have to agree with Spitfire666xXxXx. TiT was way better, the Sega version wasn't that good. I like a couple of things like Tatsu as one of the game's bosses but the game was definitely a rushed copy of TiT.

I always liked Hyperstone Heist better, to be honest.

isn't the sega inferior to the snes in a way?

That's true but many will debate this fact.

Yes it seems that at least the shells look quite a bit more detailed as do some of the bosses. Otherwise it's farely similar to Turtles in Time graphically. I'd say the game is actually has a darker color palete.

It's a solid Turtles game no doubt about it. They probably should have mentioned that it's more challenging than Turtles in Time because it definently is (though not as much as Turtles 2, 3 and certainly not 1).

I liked the bit when they talked about the other names the game went by.

It's not as good as Turtles in Time IMO nor has the variety that game does. None the less, it's a good game and well worth playing. I certainly hope that it could come to the Virtual Console because the Genesis selection isn't too fantastic so far.

Hmm to me Hyperstone Heist was a major walkthrough. Well, both that one and TiT were, but at least TiT had that major roadblock called Slash to make it difficult...

[Ninja Tiptup]

Having just played it again for kicks and grins I'd have to say it's a very good game still. It manages to mix elements of all the previous TMNT arcade style brawlers and I give it some good props for being the only game to include Tatsu. You have a lot of elements from TMNT II, III and IV present (dojo from TMNT II, seaside water surfing from TMNT III, and caves and ships from TMNT IV) in the level design and I really like that it has a standard sewer level while TMNT IV only had a surfing sewer level. They remake the Rocksteady TMNT II boss (and make him harder to beat) and include the Leatherhead from TMNT IV. It also has story elements from TMNT II, III and IV. I'd almost like to think of it as an alternate reality to the NES/SNES games but equally good in it's own way.

Hyperstone heist is a fun Game to play. However easy it may be. Still, my Fave beat-em up game for the turtles is and probably always will be TMNT 3 Manhattan Project. Even if its not as pretty as Turtles in Time or Heist, the difficulty and enemies and levels are all perfect to me. Seconad has to be TiT.
he he :D TiT.

The Hyperstone Heist is the only Turtles game I haven't played ever on a console. I hope it comes out on the Virtual Console. I don't mind that it's similar to Turtles in Time. I own the original SNES cart still. I liked the Manhattan Project a lot.

[DonatelloDomeHead31]

Manhattan Project had good music and its credits at the end--Turtles in Time did the same format: mentions the 4 turtles, april and splinter, then mentions each of the enemies in the game.
