Format of new TMNT game

greensborohill · 04-27-2003, 01:24 PM

I'm sure a number of you have played Secret of Mana (the original). Do you think konami could pull something off to where all four turtles could be on screen at the same time and be functional fighting characters? In fact I wouldn't mind incorporating a number of features from SOM. The progression and strengthening of characters as the game goes on, no set levels, just an entire city to roam around, tons of bosses etc, etc, etc.

It's most probably a 3d beat em up.

I want somethin like Metal Gear Solid 2 without the Movie part
mixed with the old NES and Genesis arcades

If this is just like another one of these modern games out today, I'll hate TMNT forever.

Yeah, that'd be fine with me too. And it's almost certainly gonna be that--I mean, look at all the Turtle games so far. They were, (with the exception of Tournament Fighters, which was a fighting game--another genre that works for TMNT) pretty much all beat em ups. I doubt they'd risk anything too different, (at least at this point in time).

Hmmm, the gba version will undoubtedly be a beat-em-up. PC....probly not. And the next generation consoles it is hard to tell....

**Karpo_007** · 04-28-2003, 06:45 AM

I have no doubt that there wil be only 2 diffrent games, One for consoles+ PC and one for GBA. Thats how konami has doen with all their games, like Silent Hill 2 and Metal Gear Solid 2: substance. PC version will be just a port. It will of course be the best looking version, but Il probably buy it for PS2 or Gamecube.

this is the link to the konami forum u might be able to find out there. So far the TMNT konami site only has the ninja star game on it no info.

I'll buy the PC version cause I don't have any consoles. Not that I mind, because PCs own consoles.

Dinny · 04-28-2003, 02:10 PM

I guess that the GBA version will be like the old arcade and SNES games

Peter laird commented on the new game, something about free roaming or something.

Stefano · 04-28-2003, 06:01 PM

cool. No matter what the game will be sweet. I hope we get to play as casey

As long as it doesn't end up like MGS FF or any of those other crap games I'll be fine. I could see a GTA style world. That would be cool. Except you can't steal cars or shoot poor old ladies. Have Purple Dragon gang members walking around the city. The missions can advance the story and you don't have to do them if you want. Of course they would have to render a sewer under the city or it would suck. I think it would be cool in that style and I don't even like GTA.

greensborohill · 04-29-2003, 10:09 AM

That would be awesome!! During the day you can only hang out on roof tops or in the sewer or you run the risk of being caught by the cops and what not. You can use trench coats to conceal yourself though. At night you have the freedom to roam the streets, but watch out for those damn purple dragons. Like you said, complete the missions at your own pace, and go enjoy. Have the battleshell come pick you up, or maybe use the cycle or slider. It would be awesome!

**Karpo_007** · 04-29-2003, 01:27 PM

Heh dont bet on it. The game has been in the works for a year, 3d beat em up is a best bet. About PC owning consoles, true only on performance. Graphics are better of course, and sometimes even framerate, but playing with a big TV on your couch is much more commortable. And since GC has usually better graphics and framerate than PS2 in games that are released for both, GC version seems like the choice for now.

*Eye of Sarnath* · 04-29-2003, 01:48 PM

Mind you, there's nothing a console can do that a computer can't.

Krangfan · 04-29-2003, 02:18 PM

As long as it comes to GCN, Xbox, or GBA, I'll be happy

~~Tokka-B~~ · 04-29-2003, 02:58 PM

Consoles have much better game controllers, plus I haven't seen a wireless for the PC yet...And framerate depends on your computer, with GCN it is always the same great 60 frames per sec....oh and loading time...zippo.
