What are perfect elements to a tmnt game ?

[Adamag]

What graphics , gameplay , story , etc do you prefer for perfect tmnt videogame ?

Considering we already have 3 great sidescrolling "beat em up" games. 2,3, and TiT, I would have to say a free roaming rpg could be cool. Something like star wars Knights of the old republic. Of course, the game worked because star wars has an unbelievable fan base. Not sure if a tmnt rpg would sell but I would love it.

A sandbox game like Spider-man 2-3, GTA series, Saints Row.

Hmmm... A game more acuratly based on the movie would have been nice, instead of this platforming Prince of Persia-ish style controls. Having Leo be away from the group (deeper storyline), sending April to find him in the jungle (more playable characters), helping Max Winters find the monsters, bigger boss battles... you can see where I am going with this.

These characters (good and bad) and their agility also lend themselves very nicely to a variety of mini games. Taking something like Mario Party and Turtlizing it. Maybe the Mini-Mutant Mini-Arcade Collection, with all your favorite games. Ninja Star Plinko, Capture the Bandana, Sai-Bo-Sai, lol.

That was fun, take it for what you will...

You read my mind man. This is exactly how a new tmnt game should be. Free roam around nyc.

A fighting game.... you know.. a LONG overdue worthy sequel to Tournament Fighters mixing people from the new show and the recent movie? What TMNT Melee SHOULD HAVE BEEN???

Turtle Spirits/Shodown, thank you very much.

[odupianist]

I play Soul Caliber and base which character I play (most of the time) off the weapon they have becuase of the TMNT.

[Ninjinister]

Don't get me wrong, I play Soulcalibur as well. It's just that the Turtles, albeit being Turtles, are lightning-quick. On the whole, the Samurai Shodown games are much quicker than the Soulcalibur ones, and would lend itself to the TMNT better.

Plus 2D fighting games will always be greater than 3D, again, on the whole.

Ninja Gaiden + TMNT = Pure win.

We've discussed this a few times. Always a fun topic.

My idea was always a free roaming stealth game that took place in New York of course. You had the sewers and the streets. There could be random crimes you had to stop and find creative ways to stop them without getting seen by the people your trying to rescue. This could include environmental kills or leading them away from the victim. There could be a notoriety system in play so if you get to noticed it becomes harder to help the city and people will start looking for you.

The story mode could just follow the comic series as a whole and end with "City At War" I mean there's enough cannon story in the whole comic series to last for a full game so that would be great.

The way TMNT played is fine for the game, I mean the general idea of making the turtles very graceful and free form in their jumping around. However the way Ubisoft executed it was ass. I think they need do it more in the style of Assassin's Creed or something, but a little more control over your character. Jumping from rooftops onto flag poles, swinging to a ledge, jumping off onto a wire, grabbing onto the side of a building and running across, something like that.

Maybe a points system that grades you on how well you did saving someone or on mission then you can buy upgrade at "Splinter's Dojo" like new moves and stuff.

All this is great fun to talk about just sad it'll never happen.

I always thought a really cool idea for a sequel to X-Men Legends or Marvel Ultimate Alliance would be if it were a free roam environment like Incredible Hulk Ultimate Destruction or Spider-Man 2 or 3 or the GTA games. You know, have like four superheroes in a free roam environment, that'd be so cool.

That could work with TMNT. Have the turtles, Casey, April, Leatherhead, and other allies to choose from, and play TMNT in a Marvel Ultimate Alliance free roam environment. And you can play as more than one turtle at a time and switch between them while in gameplay. That's what I hated about the other Turtles games, you can only play as one at a time. You can have multiplayer, but you can't like switch turtles midway through a level.

You could in TMNT, Battle Nexus I believe, and Mutant Nightmare.
