Wow... Leo has a hair-trigger anger in that comic. lol

And I like what I saw in the video. The game looks like it has a very "Mirage"esque look to it. *taps her fingers together* Excellent.

Not too fond of the designs, and it was a CG trailer. I'll hold judgment until I see gameplay footage.

Awesome but they fail for spelling Raphael wrong.

The comic style for the intro part makes me think the comic option may be available.

I didn't notice the first time I skimmed the site, but panel one mentions Shredder holding Fugitoid captive....

Who found the spelling error hehe

I can say I am excited! I love that they show the comic style in there. I wish you could see more of the potential characters

Did you frame by frame, because it's spelled "Ralphael" for all of like 2 seconds....

I paused it to check out the character outlines to see if I could spot any recognizable shadows and she noticed it.

Anyone else notice this is the test fight from the movie DVD extras?

Yeah, think it's been mention a few times. Thanks for the link though, I didn't want to load my DVD just to compare them.

So, either of you have any luck with that? I'm only seeing the TMNT and Splinter.

Werd to Peanut, I'm not the biggest fan of the character design or the glowing characters. I'm glad Ubisoft is using the comics for inspiration as indicated by the website, but that's just dumb if you're gonna go with the CGI movie designs. =/

I trust the roster will be awesome though.

Nope, that's all I could pick out too.

God, another generic brawling game using designs from a movie that really didnt make a dent and will likely just feature MIRAGE's preferred landscape over anything that'd draw fresh interest?

Yawn.

Wow... How could any of you have a problem with the movie look of the TMNT? Seriously.
The way they look in the new movie is perhaps the closest interpretation of the Mirage TMNT look that I've seen in a long time.
Have any of you seen what the TMNT looked like in the mid 80s? Pretty much like the 2007 movie turtles (minus pupils and color-coded masks).

But wow... There's just no pleasing some people.

Really? What's the problem? They too petite for you all?
I'm sure that if the designs were of the TMNT standing six feet tall and buldging with huge rippling veiny muscles, that'll get you all excited then.
Why are guys so hung up on that?

And no, this is not directed to any ONE person, but to everyone in the thread who's been whining about the use of the movie TMNT designs. So don't get overly sensitive.

Well, I think for the 25th anniversary of a huge franchise, people were expecting something a little more...nostalgic? appropriate? Whatever it may be. Now, I was one of those disappointed with them, but it's not the end of the world for me. I do appreciate these designs, it's just that the 2007 movie was a little underwhelming, and with this, and the rehashed playmates figures, etc....I think most people are just tired of them for now.

People have a problem with the designs because not every likes the CG movie. When most people think of TMNT the 4th movie isn't the first thing that comes to mind nor is it viewed as one of the most definitive versions of the turtles.

And its not only the turtles but the locations and the other characters too. It might be too soon to call but if Splinter is any indication other characters like Shredder (from the movie game), Karai, Casey, the foot, and April will most likely look like their CG counterparts. This game will also probably include one or two of the movie villains so that's also something else not to look forward too. Even the fight scene in the trailer was influenced by the movie. Its understandable how the whole movie vibe the game is giving off is unsettling for those who didn't like the movie or the games based off the movie.

It may not seem like such a big deal to you but for some the playing experience would be far more enjoyable if the game reflected the style of more favorable incarnations of the franchise. People would have preferred the OT designs or the NT designs since those two have more to do with the 25th anniversary than the movie does.

To tell you the Truth I was fine with the movie designs. I thought for the movie they looked great. My problem is the fact that the sculpts are being reused for figures that have nothing to do with the movie. Music and cyber Turtles all looking like their 2007 movie counterparts does not make me a happy camper. And all those mini mutants, even though they are cool little figures, I prefer them to look like the New toon because the villains are from the New Toon. As for having them designed like that for a game, I'm ok with it but they better have some "alternate or secret Turtle" custumes which let you at least pick the OT or NT style turtles.

See, now I would like that. I think using the "TMNT" movie turtle designs is ace, but I too would love to have alternate looks from the orginal series and 2k3 series. And I think that would please and satisfy all of us.

Yup, we'd all love that, and I think we have room to hope...it really does seem like the creators have a little bit of love for the comics.
