What would you guys like to see in the New TMNT video game?

[GK Punk]

Well scince Konami is making new TMNT games, what style would you like to see the game in? I think it would be cool if it could talk place in a 3D NY City, where you could go in to different buildings and have to save people from the Foot (or Purple Dragon) Similar to the original NES game, but have fighting be handled similar to the Arcade Series... Maybe you could go to the turtles hide out and switch characters, between the 4 turtles, and Casey Jones.... Well, What's your ideas?

[beaker]

First off, veeery cool avatar! You should do a webcomic or something!

Now then, I saw a few screens of one of the new TMNT games. It looks like it will be cell shaded. One thing I think we all want is a bit of that arcade beat em up action...heck I'd love a brand new arcade styled TMNT beat em up game(maybe for the game boy advance?) I think Konami(since theyve always done the games) will get a good balance of new graphics with very cool gameplay...least I hope! heh

[Karpo_007]

Well it seems the Main game is 3d beat em up, and I really hope the GBA game plays like the arcade ones.

[Eye of Sarnath]

Where did you see screens? The only screens we've seen have been of backgrounds.

And I wanna be able to drive something in the game. Like the Shell Cycle.

[caspiantiger]

i think they should have a story like in zelda, fighting parts like mortal combat, and maybee some brain teasers like riddles or somethings, and lots of secrets :roll:

[Karpo_007]

Where did you see screens? The only screens we've seen have been of backgrounds.

There was one screen in Gamespot wich showed cell shaded Mikey.

[Eye of Sarnath]

No, that wasn't the Mikey model that will be ingame. The background was from the game, but Mikey wasn't. I'd bet money on it.

[Karpo_007]

Well thats the only screen we've seen so far, so we can't really know yet.

[Eye of Sarnath]

Actually, you can tell that he isn't an ingame model.

[Karpo_007]

No, you can' prove it!

[Eye of Sarnath]

Mmm, yes I can. :D

[Karpo_007]

So do it.

[SlayerX]

put the freakin picture up here, and itll prove one of you wrong (and ill be able to see it :lol: )

[Karpo_007]

Don't have the link anymore and Im too lazy to look it up.

[GK Punk]

http://gamespot.com/gamespot/filters/products/screens/0,11105,589458,00.html?page=2

Thar ya be! It looks like a screen cap from the Animated series to me

[Eye of Sarnath]

The easiest way to prove my point: Mike is just a picture.

http://gamespot.com/gamespot/filters/products/screens/0,11105,589457,00.html?page=2

Look familiar?

http://www.ninjaturtles.com/gallery/michelangelo/mike_04.jpg

[Karpo_007]

I still can't view the game spot pictures, but last time I saw the pic it looked Cell shaded. The one on official site isn't. Of course the pic was blurry, so it could have been altered or something.

[Eye of Sarnath]

My point is that it's just a picture of Mike over an ingame background.

[GK Punk]

http://kittie.onlinecomics.biz/pte_screen002.jpg

There, I uploaded the gamespot one to my server so it can be seen by all!

[Karpo_007]

Well I can't see it, So I just have to trust your word for it. Maybe gamespot refuses foreign IP's or something...

[GK Punk]

Try again, I fixed it... and boy my server is sloooow today... it just had a crash over the weekend, so i think this maybe a slight after effect

[TerranigmaFreak]

I don't care what kind of game it is as long as it's a good game.

[Reznorite420]

Seeing those "E-Reader" ads on the FoxBox got me thinking that if those contain 'classic' games, maybe the old TMNT games will make their way onto those little cards!

[Karpo_007]

I saw it now. I guess Eye was right all along..

[The Master Meglomaniac]

Since this new game will based on the new cartoon, I guess Rocksteady won't be the first boss like he was in almost every other Turtes game. :D

In fact I wonder what some of the bosses would be in the game besides Baxter Stockman, Hun and Shredder.

[Karpo_007]

Probably. Or some foes from later of the series.

[The Master Meglomaniac]

Probably. Or some foes from later of the series.

Yeah they will most likely need more than 3 bosses to make the game fun, though they may have Baxter as 2 bosses of two levels, one human and one in a different form. If they have Rat King and Leatherhead later in series they could be bosses as well. I wonder if they would have one Triceraton as a boss or several of them as normal enemies?

[Voltron]

This game has serious potential. What it needs to have is you be any character you want, each with some sort of mind blowing special attack that can be done any time, the turtles have to be able to do ninja stuff. (Like stick to walls, hide in shadows, etc.) LEONARDO SHOULD STAB CRAP! I cant stress that enough! I hated watching the show and knowing Leo would absoleutly never slice a living thing ever. You also need to be able to throw shurikens. Then the game would be quite cool.
Another aspect they might want to give is a level up kind of system (not necessarily the best thing) or weapon advancement. Combos never hurt a game before. And the crowning glory would be a versus mode. Oh, I get pumped just thinking about it.
I think you'll all agree that recently video games in general have sucked with a vengance. Any game that features the TMNT is hard to screw up, but I've seen it done. If this game sucks, let it be known that whom so ever is responsible I shall hunt down and hurt them signifigantly. :evilgrin:[/img]

[psykitty]

Hmm.. I don't remember the first NES game. I remember the ones based on the arcade, though.

Personally, I'd like to see them try to make the new one like TMNT 4. Or just give it a 3D version of the 'Neon Night Riders' stage-either's good. :)
Oh, and I'd like to see Splinter and April as secret characters. And every character should have multiple death animations, preferably accompanied by funny phrases, like in the Worms games.

[Derrico13]

I would love: Arcade style play. Co-op mode 2-4 players. A secret character unlocked depending on who you beat it with (Leo-Splinter, Mike- April, Raph-Casey, Don - Leatherhead). It would be cool to play through 10 levels from start to finish, but have a total of about 25 levels, but 10 are just picked randomly. That way every time through would be a different experience. Well, I guess the last level would have to be Shredder's penthouse.

It would also rock if, hypothetically, there were more than the four secret characters I listed. I would totally dig playing as Shredder or a Triceraton. And it would be cool if they included stuff from the old Turtle games/comics/show, since it doesn't necessarily have to take all it's material from the new show.

[tank222]

yeah, thats a cool idea slithe, but i think the game should be an RPG. That way story is more involved, and ive just always wanted to play a turtle RPG. They could get new versions of their own weapons, and they could all fight in the same battle at once, instead of goin through the levels 1 or 2 at at time. I dont know if there is enough variety in the bad guys, but i think it would be pretty cool.

[R-iZZy]

Okay... I'd personally like the new game to be exactly like the style of Ninja: Shadow of Darkness and with the classic beat em up style of their latest games. And yes, April and Splinter being secret characters is a great idea.

I would also like to see them do another Tournament Fighters. That had to be the best turtle game ever!!! Make it in a Street Fighter style.

[Dinny]

There should be a training mode where u can build up your turtles strength and skill.

[Dinny]

O and there should be missions where u get rewards like in the GTA games. Only slightly less violent.
Although, I think that a GTA type game 4 the TMNT would be seriously cool.

[R-iZZy]

:nod:

[Kid Icarus]

:roll: GTA isn't the first game to do the "heres a mission, and now your done so heres what you get" thing. I don't think that would work well in a TMNT game though. What would the rewards be? A sharper katana? Longer bo?

I want this game to have some actual substance and some bigger reason to play it. Maybe the GBA and GCN versions could use the link cable after you beat it for new weapons or something?

And i REALLY want the GBA one to be like the old NES-SNES-Genesis-Arcade games.

[R-iZZy]

Well... I agree with both ideas now.

[Voltron]

You people and your anti-violence. What I think would make a great TMNT game? Just senseless violence all around. If it had a GTA theme to it, the first and only mission should be "Kill Stuff", and then you could stumble upon some thieves or something and stop them from stealing and then find out they work for the foot a delve deeper into this unfolding mystery all the while kicking ass and taking names as you play with any of the turtles. Hell, Splinter would be great to play with, too. Even better perhaps. Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside just thinking about it. Is anyone listening to me?

[Dinny]

You also need to be able to throw shurikens.
:evilgrin:[/img]
Exactly. I went to my cousins place and I played the Lord of the rings game with him. Its amazing when u use ure arrows in it they should make it the same when the Turtles are throwing their ninja stars. Also, Raph should b able to throw his sais.

[Karpo_007]

Judging from the motion capture clips, Im guessing the new TMNT game will play similar to the LOTR game.

[Dinny]

Where did u get the capture clips from?

[Karpo_007]

It was on Konami Japan's website. Someone posted a link here. It was an RM file if I remember correctly.

[Eye of Sarnath]

I hope the game isn't like the LOTR game... I've played many better games. Much better games.

[Karpo_007]

Well they haven't told us much yet... I hope we will hear something before E3.

[Eye of Sarnath]

Yeah, E3 is too far away to wait. But considering the game is supposed to be released this October, I'd guess that we will.

[Karpo_007]

Let's hope so.

[CoolWhip]

Hopefully it will be 1-4 players.

Hopefully you can pick between the 4 turtles (DUH), and it would be cool to use Casey as well.

I'd like it to be a good beat 'em up.

Hopefully it will have sweet music (the music in the new toon is great)

Hopefully it will have a good story, and cutscenes between stages to move the story along. These cutscenes could be in game graphics, or animated by the crew that does the toon.... and they'd be voiced by the cast from the new toon of course.

I can't wait...whatever it is it'll be good. :D

[Karpo_007]

It's Konami, So I have pretty good feeling about this.

[The Master Meglomaniac]

I wonder what the levels they would have in this game. Off the top of my head I can think of NY streets, sewers, Stocktronics and Foot HQ. What other levels could they use?

[Karpo_007]

Hard to say after seeing just 2 episodes of the show.

[The Master Meglomaniac]

Hard to say after seeing just 2 episodes of the show.

That's the fun of guessing. :D I mean we don't know much about the game at this point so we can just guess what's in the game.

[Voltron]

I for one hope they dont include the music from the series. It's terrible! They should get some kick ass band and just have a wailing guitar going off all the time, like the rock music from Symphony of the Night. Oh man, that would be so cool! Just beating the crap out of stuff while this Metal and what not is going off in the back ground! Of course, you could have a more mellow feel with some Japanese themed music, too. No rap, rap sucks. As a matter of fact, rap should burn in hell because it's ASS CRAP!

[Karpo_007]

The music in the show is good, but it seems you have to complain about everything in it.

[Kid Icarus]

Hopefully it will have a good story, and cutscenes between stages to move the story along. These cutscenes could be in game graphics, or animated by the crew that does the toon.... and they'd be voiced by the cast from the new toon of course.

Cut scenes are over used now a days. I guess a few every now and then would be good for the story, but if theres one after EVERY level that would get really dull really quick.

edit: gotta remember not to use < and > on MB's :dead:

[Eye of Sarnath]

I'd hope most cutscenes would be rendered in the game engine.

[Dinny]

It's Konami, So I have pretty good feeling about this.
To be honeat with u, Konami havent been doin so well since the fal of the turtles.

[Peanut]

Yeah Konami isn't too strong anymore. They've made some really bad games over the last couple of years. I sure hope the new TMNT game isn't a snooze fest *cough*mgs2*cough* I'm thinking this one should most definatley be a beat-em-up. There's tons of potential when it comes to the weapons. There could be tons of cool combos to pull off. Specific to each turtle of course. The possibility of a large scale New York City type play area is neat. I guess levels would be okay, but I'd perfer free-roaming. If the game isn't 4 players it's gonna take away alot from it. So hopefully me and my friends will be able to kick some shell at the same time instead of switch controllers when someone dies, like back in the NES days. RPG I say is totally ruled out all together. It just wouldn't work with the turtles. Perhaps Spider-Man: The Movie game would be something good to go by. Lots of secrets, some solid graphics, a beat-em-up style, maybe a little more story, and some longer more difficult levels (unless theres an overworld)

[The Stryker]

how about a fighting game...ala MK:deadly alliance
but like a sequel to tournament fighters

mikey:Attack!,Attack!

[Peanut]

Fighting games have been done to death. I doubt it would go over very well with the "casual gamer" and there'd never be another turtle game, since there seem to be more casual than hardcore gamers now adays. I wouldn't mind it though. As a side game at least, not the actual new franchise game.

[Karpo_007]

Konami is doing better than ever. Both Silent Hill 2 and MGS2 have sold great, and are both great games. On GBA their Castlevania games are selling great too. And Do I even need to mention Suikoden 3?

[Mr. Snackpants]

No, games with "wailing guitars going off all the time" are horrible and annoying. Heavy Meatal should "burn in hell" because its "a** crap."

[Peanut]

Even with those few good games, I do recall quite a few bad games with that big twisty Konami sign on the box. I still don't see how people can like mgs2. Especially now that Splinter Cell is out.

[Voltron]

I could care less what you think about me. I want my damn guitars wailing out hard core thrasher metal as I stab foot soldiers in the face with a huge ass sword. I want to dodge lasers as drums thunder along with a bass and smote the hell out of things. That's right, I like my games to be senseless, bloody, and with a lot of fighting. I mean a lot of fighting. I want unrealistic bad guys who die in really cool ways. I want bosses with cool music and bitching attacks. I want my damn Rock n' Roll. Rob Zombie's Dragula would kick ass to have a fight to.
I've been called a "Turtle Hater" and I'm fairly sure that everyone's opinion of me is that I'm a monster jackass (which for the most part, I don't disagree) but I want my Ninja Turtles to kick more ass than they ever have before with Guitars wailing and people getting their heads kicked off their shoulders.
It's common knowledge that the purpose of the ninja is to totally flip out and kill people. And Ninjas always kill people with lasers and magic. Disagree? I have proof!

http://www.Realultimatepower.com They can't put it on the internet if it isn't true! And there it is. Read it and weep.

[Voltron]

Before you go off on me I want you to take a good look at what I wrote. it's a joke. And dammit, if you don't find it funny then get a sense of humor. It's just my way to poke fun at things, I means no harm baby! My day isnt complete without making someone laugh.....

[TMNTGal]

I would like an option to battle with or without your weapons at any time. By a simple press of a button, the character will put away or bring out their weapons. I've always wanted an option like this.

All 4 Turtles can be played simultaneously, like in the 'ol arcades.

Picking up other objects (barrels, pipes etc) and throwing them at the baddies. Heh heh heh.

That'd be kinda cool ^^
It would be like Manhattan Missions for the PC... Just not as hard hopefully!
(I can never beat anyone in manhattan missions with their actual wepons, I always used Shurikens)

Yeah... that idea is cool too. I just wish you can run around the city, like in GTA3 and use all the cycles and weapons. It'd be nice in that layout!

[Peanut]

TMNTGal that is a great idea. I never thought of that. That just shows the endless possbilities with the Turtles actual combat. Some objects should be very interactual. Like tossing an oil drum down over an enemies body and then whipping out your weapon and beating him senseless, or just kicking it backwards into a horde of oncoming foot soldiers. I also think the enemies should have rag doll physics. Those physics are the best for brutally beating someone! The great head snaps and leg twitches. I could just imagine jumping into the air and coming down on a foot soldier with Mikey's chucks swinging madly. Watching the foot soldiers head snap back as the chucks collide with his face. Man this game has so much potential!

[R-iZZy]

You know what I really want? Ninja Turtles in Mortal Kombat style. It would be a little more nice to see a more gruesome side to the turtles. :D

[R-iZZy]

In other words... I really want to see them in an arcade fighting style game. Like Street Fighter or something like that. They already did it, but I want a more updated version and 3D this time. Tournament Fighters was my favorite TMNT game... I just want to make it more of a favorite.

I'm making a TMNT game website right now, but Ive been having too much fun playing that and the original arcade to Take the nessasary screen shots :lol:

[Dinny]

It would b good if there was a "Create A Turtle" mode.

[R-iZZy]

LMAO... YEAH!!! That would be greeat! And grunger_kittie... I'm glad you have such a great taste in gaming. That is my all-time favorite TMNT game, and forever will be, until they come out with the same style, but in 3D and on PS2 (or GC).

[J Legault]

I read in my Nintendo Power Magazine and said it'll come in Oct. 2003.
Why there hasn't been a new game for many years. I'd hope it'll be like the New Series, have good graphics,But kickin' commands on Foot Clan. And good views of New York. I'll try to find out more in the future. :D

[CookSux]

I seriously hope that it isn't a 3D beat 'em up like people recommended. Honestly, name one good game in that genre. Hopefully they use a totally new game engine for this. I wouldn't mind it being a 2D beat 'em up with 3D graphics. But the whole, search for this and this and this and this, thing is too redundant. Give me a game that I can get, play and have fun. Not have nightmares over, because I can't make a stupid jump onto a litle platform smothered with ugly polygonal spikes. Switch up the variety as well. Add some motorcycling, party wagoning, wall scaling stuff. Then it'd be a good game in my books.

[Raven]

I wish the game to be in 3d but like metal gear solid you use stealth it would make sence there ninjas!
but I wont a lot of fighting. Lots of blood. can use cool items and differnt weopons instead of always using the weopons they always carry like ninja stars or anything else.
also like some one else said switch between charters and use shredder after you deaft the game but he has a story that runs with him.
but mostly like metal gear solid because that game rocks.

[Eye of Sarnath]

When this was first announced, I said it should be like the Metal Gear games. They're some of the best third-person action games out there. Stealth just makes sense to me. I'd also like it if you could control some vehicles in the game.

And yes, Metal Gear Solid rocks.

Damn (:eek:)... that is one of greatest ideas!!! MGS has been my MOST FAVORITE game series ever... from the NES to the PS2... it would make sense to make the turtles in stealth mode. But the only whizzing weapons I could see the Ninja Turtles using are ninja stars. :|

But I heard the next game will be in October, so we might as well wait and see. Maybe we can see screenshots soon, hopefully.

[slayer]

Personaly I want a HARDCORE violant, dark, game. It would be cool to have it be an action adventure. Nice stealth involved and a solid combat system. Of course it's just gonna suck. It will be cell shaded though and that should be interesting. As far as the soundtrack goes I think a nice mix of metal and powerful classical style score with Japanese influence. By the way have any of you seen THE SEVEN SAMURI sorry if spelled it wrong.

[The Stryker]

how bout using the kind of spider-man game esque free-roaming areas

with the usual get out of someplace before time runs out

and that idea about using hand-to-hand combat and weapons kicks ass

then there would be little secret cut-scenes and such and comic covers to find (if you want of course)

but for all you violence hungry people i think you should note that the game is going to be based on the new show! and the show is a kids show!

so don't expect leo to be pulling out shredder's heart at the end of the game

and thats my......4 cents

[R-iZZy]

I like stryker's idea as well... nice thing. I like the classic beat-em-up style... but I like the free-roaming idea.

[GK Punk]

I like stryker's idea as well... nice thing. I like the classic beat-em-up style... but I like the free-roaming idea.

I definetley like the free roaming!

I think it would be cool if you could go in to any building in town

[ZigFB]

I've been reading this forum thread, and all of you have great ideas... Now then, here's my contributions.

Personally, I see NOTHING wrong with 3D-full roaming Fianl Fight-style beat 'em. I like the idea of the switch the weapons, but I also like the idea of INDIVIDUALISED special weapons and abilities, ala Radical Rescue for GameBoy, which requires you to play through the game with EVERY charecter to get the full experience of the game. I also like the idea of a 'stage select' after you beat the stage, ala Shinobi for PS2. I'm thinking original artwork from the Mirage artists would be awesome 'prizes' as well as cutscenes, which, while done to death, are very useful to moving a story, could be viewed in a movie player. I'm also partial to the idea of having 'alternate costumes' for the TMNT... Like, say you didn't like the new cartoon style and you wanted Leonardo to look like he did in the old cartoon. Well, unlock it in-game, and BAMF! you have old cartoon Leo. Also, I'd like it if, when you changed chara style, you changed voices... I mean, who ELSE hates Leo's new voice? Am I alone in this one, or does everyone else think Cam Clarke did soooooo much better? The idea for the changing voices comes from the idea that Wayne Grayson STILL does Mikey, and, well, I like Cam Clarke. Also, individualized statistics, like in the first TMNT game, would be great. Remember how Don could take out an enemy in one swing, while everyone else took FOUR? Yeah, I liked that too, even though I played Leo. Another debate is music. Why not remix music from all of the other games? I mean, we ALL jammed out to the overworld theme in TMNT for NES. I want remixes of those, and everyone knows that Konami has mixers. One thing I'm begining to fear is, seeing this is Konami, the very real possibility of TMNT DDR... Now, don't get me wrong, here. I love TMNT... I like DDR... But the concept of the two together freightens me. I like the idea of stealth, seeing as how it's ninjas, but I also don't really want it to be "you HAVE to be sneaky to survive," you know? The most fun I had in MGS and MGS2 was making my presence known and make with the jujitsu, knocking out everyone in the room, hide, wait for the radar to return, and then go about my daily routine of espionage and monkeys. But I digress. If they released a fighting game, I'd like it to actually play more along the lines of Super Smash Brothers Melee, which would sort of work better, seeing as how you tend to last longer and get more enjoyment out of the fight. PLUS you could finally have ALL FOUR TURTLES FIGHTING EACH OTHER AT ONCE!! The secret characters thing with alternate storylines is good. I think that is actually REALLY good, and that you NEED the secret charecters abilities to unlock other stages, giving the game even MORE replay value, so that by the time the second game is released, you'll just be getting the 100% complete sign and are ready to take on a new game. Now then, this rant is going on far to long, so I will leave it open for the debates.... Later.

[R-iZZy]

That's a big distribution... amazing i finished it in only two days. But this idea is great too. If only Konami was reading these ideas right now. Maybe someone ought to make them aware of the ideas that could be given to them.

[Eye of Sarnath]

That was lengthy. Could someone who's read the whole thing summarize it for me and save me the trouble of actually reading it?

Oh, yeah, I read part of it. And I agree, you shouldn't HAVE to be stealthy, but I think it would make a nice gameplay option.

[ZigFB]

It was late and I was tired... Basicly, I agree on the full roaming 3D area thing, but with a final fight style beat 'em up to it. I also agreed on the switch weapons thing, but I took it a step further with individualised weapons, allowing only certain charectors to access certain areas of a stage, and thus certain secrets including, but not limited to, new stages, bonus cutscenes, new charas...

The next thing was the idea of 'alternate costumes.' Like say you wanted the old cartoon Leo instead of the new one. Unlock him and he's yours. But I went one step further by saying they should change the voices for the change in costume, like using Cam Clarke for old cartoon Leo instead of the new guy.

Next was individualized stats. Leo be the balanced in the group, Don be the power hitter but slow, Mikey be fast and attack twice as fast as the other turtles, but weaker than the other, and Raph be the tank, but be slower than Don.

Next I touched on music saying that they should do a remixed montage of all of the old music from the other games. I mean, I wouldn't mind fighting to the old overworld music from the first game all over again, would you?

I also touched on the idea of stealth. It's a good idea, but it shouldn't be completely neccessary. Also, if the turtles are stealthy, that means the foot should be too, which will make gameplay a little tougher than, say, TMNT II: The Arcade Game for NES, but not nearly as painful as the first game.

The rest of it are little musings I made while going off on my rant. Well, here it is, broken into bitesized chunks. Enjoy.

[Eye of Sarnath]

Now if only it was in words of one syllable. :P

I'll save space and just say I agree with most of it.

[cqb101]

I would like it to be in the same style as Shenmu and Shenmu2.....With the movies and everything.......

[ZigFB]

::laughing::

Leo: I will save Master Splinter.... as soon as I finish playing this video game... and buy a toy.... and pet the kitty...

[Karpo_007]

If you want multiplayer, stealth is not an option. Stealthy single player game would be cool, but im really hoping for a multiplayer beat em up. Games like that have much more reply value.

[Eye of Sarnath]

Oh, I think stealth could work in a multiplayer game. But that depends, online or split screen? Split screen makes it pointless in the first place, becuase you know where your enemy is.

Yeah... and split-screen kinda gets annoying, because you can be distracted by what's going on in the other screen. I hope it is online... and if the original four turtles are taken, you can create more turtles (like Everquest) and play the game as your created turtle. But they'll have to make the game very big, very long, and very extensive.

[cqb101]

And you should be able to play as other characters like Casey Jones....

[Voltron]

Bitching sound track like Symphony of the night. fades from Rock n' Roll to Classical.

Relentless fighting where you kill 50 foot soldiers at a time.

You could avoid people as not to alert the masses of your existence.

SWORDS SHOULD CUT STUFF DAMMIT

Multiplayer Battle and mission modes

Free Roaming=Yes

While Shenmue was an incredible, no.... God like, no... One of the best games of all time, the feel just wouldn't fit the turtles. Sure you could have cuts scenes, but what the hell would a turtle do with an allowance of 500 yen a day? Play Space Harrier?

Environment should harbor weapons for your use. Pick up a crow bar from a felled enemy and have some play time with his friends. Dont limit weapons to the designated weapons they use. Chain whips, shurikens, scythes, bats, guns (to use as blunt objects)...

Cameoes from old cartoon characters like Slash, Bebop, and Rocksteady. Nostalgia always sells.

Customizable Turtles like in Skating/Wrestling/Boxing Games.

Guitars wailing constantly off in the distance

Bonus level where Raphael gets into a bar fight and knocks out annoying celebrities such as Robin Leech, Reigis Philbin, Oprah and her infernal bitch boy Dr. Phil, Boris Yeltsin and the number 4.

Shredder will kick ass, or I will hunt down the programmers....and most likely hurt them by calling them names until they cry and ask me to leave

:lol: Last two parts were really funny, and yet a great idea at the same time... he practically put my idea in his words... that's what I want.

And how about an additional practice mode like in Turtles in Time where two can battle each other like Street Fighter. It would be a cool addition.

[XERO]

How about unlocking the original Arcade game after you beat the game on Hardest difficulty?

That would kick donkey! :lol:

[ZigFB]

Well, that could be another game entirerly. TMNT Mega Collection. Play ALL of the old games in 32-bit Hi-res sprites. I mean, who WOULDN'T want to play Fall of the Foot Clan in 32-bit graphics? Sure, I 've beaten it, literally, with my eyes closed, but it'd still rock. And since Konami owns all of the titles, the only thing that would have to be changed would be the areas where the original theme was the BGM. Why does that have to change? The original production company owns it, therefore making it a pain to get the rights to it for EVERY LEVEL that it appears. Curses, I'm rambling again...

I totally agree......

[Stefano]

i wonder if you can play four player for the gamecube? does anyone know

[cqb101]

i wonder if you can play four player for the gamecube? does anyone know

Do you mean is the game gonna have multiplayer? If that's what youre wonderin it's too early to know......

[Karpo_007]

They confirmed it will have a VS mode, weather or not there is multiplayer option in story mode is unknown.

[Stefano]

thanks. I really hope you can play multiplaer in story mode. me and my brother still play the second turtle game for the nes and turtles in time. there the best old games

[Karpo_007]

Best TMNT game to date is the Arcade game with 4 players. Nothing can beat that.

[Stefano]

i agree i remember pumping so much mony in thoses

[Karpo_007]

And Now you can play it with you'r PC and Mame32. I played it with my cousins last summer, and TMNT game experience can't get better than that. Atleast before the new game.

True that :)

[Raven]

Like I sayed on pg 4 belive this game has to be like metal gear solid but also lots of action!!!!!!!!!!
I wont to come behind some one as leo and stab them and watch blood flow! I want shredder! with a story that fits with him different levels! not were its this different voice ****!

I want lots of weopons and huge enviroments with breakable crap!!!
I wont sweat unlockables like demos of old arcade games and different costumes like ninja suit leo or cyborg don from the image comics!!!!

I want a couple of the movies in the game and switch the charters around. Or when you play a second time theres somthing weird like ninjas are citazens and citazens are ninjas?
I love the idea about orginal art to unlock, they should have a brief history of what happened in the comics!

But if I havent said this enough shredder with different story
and metal gear like stelth. If they dont well I have all there phone numbers and I can become very annoying if you cant tell, and if that dosent work I will make it very hard for them to get out the building! ( lock in)

[ZigFB]

I got an arcade machine less than three miles from my house... Too bad the only TMNT fan (a Don fangirl, by the way) I know doesn't want to set foot (gotta love the puns) inside the Chuck E Cheese that it's currently housed in. Oh well, at least I have mame, with about four or five different versions of the game. Super Turtles. Hero Turtles. 2 player Super Turtles. Two player Hero Turtles. And then the original, four player, TMNT... And I repeat, I hate Baxter in that game. I always go through two bucks in that fight...

[donnyman444]

i think that the new video game should be in a free to roam city simular to grand theft auto 3. they could roam the sewers and above ground and roof top. they could go around saving people. i hope they have the new vehicals in the new videogame too.

[Stefano]

i agree with donny man he drives a good point. there could be endless possibilities with that idea

[Stefano]

I agree with stefano hes a very sexy guy

[donnyman444]

i think in the new game they should should be able to ride there skateboards bikes rollerblade and scooters that would be fun to pull some mad fliptricks and grinds with mikey.

[Stefano]

If it would be like grand theft auto with more of a story behind it it would be good. It would be cool to throw in movies with the same voices from the cartoon

[ZigFB]

Actually, I'm starting to disagree with the idea of MGS control system... The more I think about it, the more I think that the Devil May Cry engine would work best with this game... We all want in your face action, and we want it with a bit of style as well. Why not do that? Of course, you'd have to replace the guns with shurikans and stuff like that...

[Karpo_007]

Yeah, and the GTA3 style will never be used. They are not spending 4 years to make the game!

[lethrhd]

Anyone a ya'll know if ol' Leatherhead might make an appearence?

[Karpo_007]

Probably not in the game.

[Dinny]

U mean DEFINATELY not in the game. Its a shame but we wont b cin him this season so we wont b seein him in the game.

The game should have drivin on the bike or the armored car.

[thesaintofkiller]

I'm pretty sure Konami won't give the Turtle game too Konami of Japan and Kojima (metal gear, silent hill, Zone of Enders) so the game probably won't have a giant budget.

Even so, if the old team who did the original turtle games can come back, then i'll be more than happy :o. If they try to do a grand Theft Auto wannabe, chance are they'll scew da game, and it'll bomb.

Just do a beat em up i say, 4 player kick ass action game in 3D cell-shaded, and i'll die happily :sick:

[The Master Meglomaniac]

Probably not in the game.

If they don't use Leatherhead, then who would they use as bosses? They will need more bosses than just Hun, Baxter Stockman and Shredder.

[Karpo_007]

There 26 episodes... They will think of something. Firstly Nano comes in mind.

[Raven]

what I ment was I would like them to sneak around like in metal gear solid but I still stand on shredder with is own story mode!

[Eye of Sarnath]

Cause Metal Gear Solid ROCKS DA HOUSE.

[The Master Meglomaniac]

Nano seems like he would be too similar to Stockman in his second form, who they would most likely use in the game.

[ZigFB]

Oh dear Kamesama, please no cell shading.... Cell shading looks HORRIBLE... Zelda is the best example, and they STILL didn't get it to look right... I'll be happy if the graphics look decent. Personally, I say hi-res sprites... But, then again, I'm a sprite freak, and that's that..
