your favorite boss from Turtles in time
 
My favorites gotta be slash, that mofo was crazy

LeoNerdo 02-12-2009 10:02 PM

Metalhead cause my friends and I always crack up at, "I'm gonna mangle you green slimballs." plus he's really easy

Wes 02-12-2009 11:13 PM

Probably Shredder in the fourth level -- beating him by throwing Foot Soldiers at the screen was really neat. :)

Cipher 02-12-2009 11:56 PM

Shlash is a goddamn beast. I'm not sure why the decided to put the hardest boss of the game in level five.

NiNi 02-13-2009 12:26 AM

Slash. Mainly because he was a fun challenge.

Slash was only hard on the tougher difficulties. On easy and normal, he had a very easy to follow pattern - especially on one player. I had more trouble with Bebop & Rocksteady than anyone else....

Only babies play Turtles in Time on Easy and Normal. The problem with Slash is he attacks so randomly, and moves around the stages borders in a way that makes it almost impossible to reach him in time to hit his back, even with two players.

And when he starts curling up in a ball to attack you, oy vey.

Aw, eat it. Not everyone is great at the game. Besides that, it's more convenient to play it on Easy and just clear the thing in half an hour then spending an hour and a half.

Totally not random even on the harder difficulties. There's a pattern, a very subtle pattern, but it's there. If I actually get some free time soon and a better desktop capture software, I'll detail a video on Youtube about it.

Don't worry, I'm not that arrogant. Through years of playing it since I was a kid, I can clear Turtles in Time in twenty-five or so minutes on Hard mode. Although I apparently still suck at Slash.

Turtles II and Turtles III, however, continue to kick my ass.

That'd probably be helpful.

Ninjinister 02-22-2009 10:35 PM

Yeah, even on Hard, though, Bebop and Rocksteady kick my ass infinitely more than any other boss.

Most definately the hardest for me. Hit that bastard from behind.

I would have to say it was most fun throwing soldiers at shred head. The first time you fight shredder is my favorite boss. Slash was the hardest.

Prowler 02-23-2009 11:35 AM

I never liked the character, but I gotta give it to Slash.

rav4ge 02-23-2009 11:23 PM

To be honest I haven't played through all the original titles... mainly the arcade game. I'd have to say Shredder from Turtles in Time. My friend and I used to replay that level over and over just for the boss. Probably my favorite level too.

Eiko 02-23-2009 11:47 PM

i don,t have a fav i love the whole game so much can beat it on hard mode with out losing a life and getting a high score there is a trick to beating slash just get him in a corner time when he is going to attack then run and hit him in the back. :)

Samhain 02-24-2009 04:54 PM

Slash!!!!!

Demon_Shredder 02-24-2009 06:39 PM

I can never get to Slash on my own so I have to say Rocksteady and Bebop

Never "get" to Slash? You mean never reach his level?
Prehistoric Turtlesaurus is before Skull and Crossbones so you would have to be at Slash before you get to Rocksteady and Bebop.

Patraw 02-25-2009 10:18 AM

I also liked the Shredder battle best where you have to toss Foot Soldiers at him--reminds me of the first boss battle from Battletoads (which is probably where Konami got the idea). The TMNT games could have used more innovative boss brawls like that one.

DonatelloDomeHead31 02-25-2009 12:33 PM

Leatherhead, he is easy to defeat if you strategize how you move around him and avoid his tail.

Original TMNT Cartoon Fan 02-25-2009 07:36 PM

Slash
 
Slash. I never had any major problems with Bebop and Rocksteady (Super Nintendo Entertainment System version).

Roland 03-11-2009 11:49 AM

My Favourite Boss
 
Probably Bebop and Rocksteady there esaiest to beat in the first tmnt game :D(Overworld to sidescroller one on NES). But for hardest to beat the techodrome and Shredder in TMNT 3 for nes.

Cowabunga Kiefer 03-29-2009 07:19 PM

Definitely Slash! He moves fast, and you just never know what he'll do next. He's crazy, dudes!

He's easy in the Easy Mode, semi-easy in the Normal Mode, and very difficult in Hard Mode only if you don't know his patterns.
