Shocking Realization About 2K3 Game

In the Notes From The Underground level, the Turtles fight (and KILL) mindless monsters. In a later level, these monsters are established as once being humans.


Oh. My. God.

What? 90% of turtles villains are humans. Plus that was already said in the actual episode.

I think she's refering to the fact that the Turtles kill the mutant monsters in the games, even though they were previously humans.

Indeed, I am referring to the fact the mutants clearly splatter into green sludge when you defeat them.

And how were we supposed to know that? And your statement still makes no sense.

Jester's right. You basically spend most of the game beating or slashing ( depending on the Turtle ) crowds of human Foot Ninjas and Purple Dragons to death. After that throwing in a bunch of humans turned monsters isn't that big a deal.

I guess the only thing I find shocking here is that anyone still wants to talk about that game. It was terrible.

The GBA games were pretty sweet, because they stuck to Konami's tried and true 2D Beat 'Um Up formula.

Tried and true? It literally beat the video game franchise into the ground with that mind-numbingly monotonous Final Fight formula.

I would like to see a TMNT game try and do something different, for once. The first game on NES was the only one that actually attempted to.

Key word being Attempted.

The Mirage Box art didn't hurt either, did it...

I'll admit, it could get old. Radical Rescue for the Game Boy was pretty unique, giving each Turtle specific strengths, and made it more of a Metroid style game play mechanic....and it's hard as all get out.

I didn't say it wholly succeeded, but it was a pretty versatile TMNT game... there was a whole side to it where you travel around the streets of NYC in and out of the Turtlevan (and can run over Foot Soldiers, no less), even swimming levels.

Every other game was just mash the button in a never-ending gauntlet of rainbow colored Foot Soldiers, left to right.
