Does anyone know where I can get downloads of some the old TMNT games? I was wonderin' if there was site for it. Is The Manhattan Missions a good game to download? Well help me out however you can. Thanks.

Manhatten Missions is the PC one right? I think you can get it from the Home of the Underdogs... just type that in google. It's Abandonware, so it's totally legal.

I dowloaded The Manhattan Missions and it didn't work. But I downloaded TMNT2:The Arcade Game and that worked. BaldMonk do you know how to get The Manhattan Missions to work? Also where can I download The Manhattan Project?

No idea sorry mate.

Spitfire: I thought abandonware was legal.

I thought he was talking about ROMs. I dont even know what abandonware is. Sorry

I don't have time to dig up the information, but most abandonware is actually not legal. The idea of abandonware is that since you can't buy the game anymore, you can download it. Totally wrong! A fair share of the rights to "abandonware" games are still held by their respective companies.

Well the thing with abandonware -- hence the name -- is that it's been more/less "abandoned", so nobody really gives a crap anymore. Yes, it's technically illegal, since the companies still hold the rights to the game, but since you can't buy the game anymore and since downloading the game isn't therefore cheating the companies out of any money, most of the companies don't really care. In fact, I've heard of a few instances in which programmers were actually GLAD to see that people were still playing the games that they worked so hard to create!

Manhattan Missions is a great game, BTW! I'm one of the few people I know who had the thing way back when it was $40 and played the thing incessantly on my old IBM PS2 system. Many an afternoon was wasted sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with a buddy in 2-player sessions at the keyboard!

One of these days I'll crank out a SC review for the thing... I've got tons of screencaps.
