So this is like Tournament Fighters 2.0, basically.

Jonatello · 01-27-2005, 06:48 PM

actually it seems almost like a complete Super Smash Bros Melee rip-off. Not that thats a bad thing

*Spitfire* · 01-27-2005, 07:19 PM

Woah! That sounds awesome! Thank You for posting this. Im excited already. I would love to see them take it in a new direction

While on the topic who do you guys think the 20 characters will be. They already mentioned the main ones. Who else? Zog? Trax? Leatherhead?

Flipping Awsome!!

Super smash bros is one on my fave games its very fun with 4 players

i was thinking they should make a game like this not to long ago.

**Machias Banshee** · 01-27-2005, 09:18 PM

ooh...

I REALLY hope that they make this withOUT all the lil voiceovers with every single hit... "turtle tornado" "mikey's in the hizzouse" "I'll be the stick, you be the ball" and "Come get some" are Really annoying...

Meeko · 01-27-2005, 09:20 PM

I AGREE 100% those got very anoying. imagine 4 people playing that would be extremly anoying

*Spitfire* · 01-27-2005, 09:21 PM

WOW Im buying this already just from seeing those

Jonatello · 01-27-2005, 09:46 PM

Hmmm not on PS2, well I'm most likely not going to get it anyway's I was kinda dissapointed with the First one and I didn't even get the second, give me TMNT IV for SNES any day.

Tigershard · 01-27-2005, 09:55 PM

What worries me is how similar the graphics look to Battle Nexus, and the short time frame between game releases. It is ok if they are using the same graphics engine, but they better revamp the controls/combo system, it was a real pain in the shell.

*KROW* · 01-27-2005, 09:57 PM

Well, there was indeed a Triceraton featured in that video.

It was funny seeing the boys beating the crap out of each other in that demo. Also, if you look closely, you can see Donatello give a small bow. That was cool.

*Spitfire* · 01-27-2005, 10:00 PM

You know since this game is comming out in March, which is not even close to a year after BN came out, maybe they spent their time on this one. What Im saying is, maybe the put more time into this fighting game and BN 2 was like the test out for the game engine or something. Anyways it looks really fun! And I want to buy it

*Anarchistguy* · 01-27-2005, 10:16 PM

COOL!!!

...Although I'd say this game looks more like Power Stone 2 than Smash Bros.

Tigerfog · 01-27-2005, 11:29 PM

Arrrgh... this looks like compilation of recycled stuff from the previous games.
I don't how successful this game will be, but so far, this sounds way too much like "Rayman Arena" all over again for me.
