Now that the new tv series by Nickelodeon has finaly stated and is so succeful, does anyone know when we will hear news about video games that will be based on the new show? The first video game that was based on the 2003 series was released in October 2003 when Season 1 was near end. Will something similar happen this time too? Can we expect a new video game coming sometime in 2013? In february 2012 there was some rumors on the net about Activision working on new TMNT games that will be based on Nickelodeon series but since then we have not heard anything more.

That is a good idea to make a video game based on the new turtles show. I would like a game like that too. My guess is that there will be one, maybe it will be announced at E3 next year.

What I would like to play, is a game similar to TMNT 1989 arcade, only with characters and levels inspired by the new turtles show. I also would like a game that plays similar to Batman Arkham City.

I definitely think it's fair to expect something in 2013, but I can't offer any credible information. It'd be nice to get some news on that front.

I'd get it if and I'm sure when they make one.

I predict we'll see a Lego TMNT game by 2014.

As for a normal TMNT game, I still feel like if you took the playstyle of Assassin's Creed and supplanted the Turtles into it, the game would be amazing!

Imagine climbing up apartment buildings and running across the rooftops of a stylized Brooklyn. Picture skulking a Foot Soldier as he makes his way through the alleys, and you perform an "air assassination" with Raph jumping down and taking out his foe, then picking up the body and disposing it in a Dumpster.

The melee would need to be refined for when you wanted to run head first into a group of Purple Dragons or Foot for some 1 on 8 fighting.

Also creating a sewer tunnel system would be fun, too!

I wouldn't say Activision is *rumored* to publish the game(s) when it's been officially announced....

The game hasn't been announced, the fact that Activision is their licensing partner for games is what is officially known.

Well, someone would miss out on the potential here! I'd love it to be a combination of being continous with Season 1 of the series with a few scenes that take places between episodes, and removing some of the less memorable scenes. I'd love it to be part platformer and part 3D to create a multitude of enviormnents, since today's kids (and teens even) can't remember a time without platformers. If some unique ideas are presented, perhaps they could be incorporated into the Nick show. Too bad Rocksteady declined to publish a game.

Hire Wayforward to do it. I would pretty much buy Double Dragon Neon all over again, especially if it was now TMNT themed.

there's a lot of great ways to do a TMNT game but I think an interesting approach would be a brawler RPG similar to The Bouncer on PS2.

If you could imagine something kind of like a modern, 3d version of Double Dragon only with character advancement like you'd find in an RPG

Of course... this was one of the very first PS2 games and it shows. There's a lot that could be better about it, but the concept is cool

I just hope we get some more games... of any sort! But please... not another fighting game (like street fighter)... it's been done to death

The web games on nick.com are great while we wait though

Rayman Legends, Sonic Generations and New Super Mario Bros. are making waves for 2D and 3D animated but 2D styled games. I would like to see a 4 player TMNT brawler with tight controls and great music. Something's that's very fun to play more than once. They could have level up systems and unlockable moves but I want them to get the basics right. I'd also like an Assasin's Creed style game but a really solid brawler or even something very akin but not necessarily a Lego game.

Don't just make some shovelware for the kids. Put some dang effort into like Konami once did.

I would TOTALLY buy a Lego Turtles game...especially with the possibilities of zillions of character unlocks!

Hell to the yeah. Double Dragon Neon was amazing and it felt like it was just itching to be a Ninja Turtles game

I got Double Dragon Neon for free through PlayStation Plus and I was just really indifferent about it. Definitely a game I probably would have had some regret purchasing if I actually bought it.

If there is a new TMNT game coming out from Activision, then it should be done in a way where there is a strictly single player mode and a strictly co-op mode. A multiplayer team vs team type of game if need be (and coming from Activision, multiplayer would be an almost sure thing to happen). If it's a side-scrolling beat 'em up, then in all honesty it should just be an online digital download release for consoles.

As long as interest in the show holds up (with a second season already ordered), then there definitely will be a game coming out. I just hope it's quality game and not a game that just uses the TMNT name to sell units.

Wouldn't mind seeing a game based on the 2012 series. We're long over due a TMNT game.

It would have been awesome if that rumour was true about Rocksteady making a TMNT game. Was disappointed when I found out it was fake :(

Just that they were publishing was announced. A game itself wasn't.

Hire Wayforward to do it. I would pretty much buy Double Dragon Neon all over again, especially if it was now TMNT themed.

I still feel WayForward's greatest strengths lie in when they do nicely animated 2D graphics. Hence why despite not having the greatest gameplay, the TMNT game WayForward *did* make (http://tmnt.wikia.com/wiki/Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles:_Battle_for_the_City) is still such a pleasure.

Yeah they have a long history amazing spritework. Almost all their games are worth playing at least once, even if the title/franchise/etc don't seem compelling to you at first.

I felt that way until they announced an Adventure Time game. There is no way in God's green earth I'll touch that even if it's the greatest thing to grace the 3DS.

Dunno, it looks like it should be worth a shot. The Zelda II similarities are probably the most worrisome part to me.

I agree arkham city would be cool but what makes tmnt difficult for developers is its 4 main characters .Maybe a tfs war for cybetron style game with 3 a.i bots following your choice of character? I would love another tmnt reshelled inspired remake!

Dead Island had four main characters. You had to pick one and play the game through, then the other 3 showed up in cut scenes. Weird, but that's how they did it.

Is it to late to throw my hat in the ring for a classic side scrolling brawler?

What, I haven't owned a new console of my very own since the SNES....
