2K3 series games.

I was wondering what you guys though of the games based on the second animated series. I've played the three action games on playstation 2. I really wanted to like the games, but they seemed a bit underdeveloped for action games of this generation.

I thought the 03 game was the worst of the batch. No block, no targetting system, only one combo with a few small variations, no special moves, arial attacks had to be unlocked (but you started with a double jump, for some reason). The versus mode was nice but unlocking the characters for it was a pain, mainly because the story mode was so bad.

I actually liked Battle Nexus the most. I wouldn't consider it an A-Rank action game, but at least it was somewhat fun to play. The story covered a large portion of the second season and levels where more balanced. Switching between characters on the fly also seemed to help add some variety to the gameplay. But I couldn't really get into Mutant Nightmare. The levels were long and redundant like the 03 game, and some of the missions with special objectives could be really frustrating (I was never able to make it past the first stage of the second episode, where you have to destroy all the sonic devices within the time limit). The idea of having all four turtles in action at once was nice, though.

I'm currently waiting for the 03 GBA game to arrive, that actually looks pretty good. I plan to get the movie GBA game eventually as well. What did you guys think of the portable games?
