Platinum Games (Bayonetta/Metal Gear Rising) making new TMNT game? - Page 9

*TigerClaw* · 12-29-2015, 11:08 PM

I really hope this new game gets a retail release and not a download only game, the last Platinum Games that was download only was that The Legend of Korra game, it had mixed reviews.

Then the Transformers Devastation was a retail release and got a lot of positive reviews.

So I hope they put a lot of care into this game, and make it the best TMNT ever, many have tried to do TMNT games, but failed at it.

Considering the continued silence on this it really seems like it's going to be a hot drop the way Korra was. No build up, no press, slow leaks followed by a "Hey, I guess we're making this thing," announcement, then randomly dropped on digital store fronts without a whisper.

With this being IDW-based I really hope it raises awareness of the IDW comics and helps more people get into that series. IDW TMNT gives casuals what they want in that all the 80's characters and villains are in it, but they also do a new spin on it and mix it with Mirage, 4kids, and Archie stories too.

IDW TMNT really is shaping up to be one of the best modern takes on the franchise. For the people who are also mixed between the original 80's cartoon, 2k3 cartoon and the Nick cartoon, IDW is like a perfect blend of all 3 combined into one.

So um.......do you guys think there's a chance........Alopex could appear in the game?

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 12-30-2015, 08:02 AM

Be nice if it was a Turtle in Time style clone, but with the IDW world.

*GoldMutant* · 12-30-2015, 10:10 AM

Seems like an awesome game is coming up, though I'll keep my expectations a bit low due to how some of the TMNT games have been in recent years. Not to say all are bad, but just a bit uneventful. Given the artwork of IDW looking excellent, this is going to be fun.

The only thing I'd hope for though is not a beat em up like the almighty "Turtles in Time", I'd personally like the game to have elements of it but not to a large extent. Maybe a Ninja Gaiden style gameplay wise?

Yeah so anyone who says it'll be like Korra can be quiet now.

Care to explain how? Just curious.

*CyberCubed* · 12-30-2015, 12:56 PM

I wonder who they'll cast for the voices.

How would anyone possibly get that from such an image?

*Ninjinister* · 12-30-2015, 02:27 PM

Random man dances with an invisible partner in front of monitors with TMNT desktops. This somehow means MiM will be unlike some other game?

Totally makes sense to me.

To those confused by the photo, go back a page or two to Maelxich's post...

So yeah i think this game is in good hands.

This looks to be like a XBLA leak of sorts, which is how this was found. In any case, looks like IDW is confirmed~!

OMG YAASSSS. I care so much about this now.

That's not Kamiya. It's Kenji Saito.

Do all Japanese people look the same to you?

*CyberCubed* · 12-30-2015, 03:54 PM

I'm surprised neither Bobby nor Tom Waltz have said anything about this. You think they would promote the game since its based on the IDW comics.

*Ninjinister* · 12-30-2015, 04:01 PM

Even then how many devs that have been fans have made subpar or worse TMNT games? Being a fan doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be good.

I mean I want this to be good. Why wouldn't I? But since the track record hasn't been good, I'm bracing myself for the worst.

Instead of judging whether or not MiM will be good by using past TMNT games try using Platinums's track record whose only blemish wasn't really a "bad" game.

Funny thing about that pic is that it was originally unearthed around the time that Revengeance was being hyped before release. That's going on 2-3 years ago, now. I'd be honestly surprised if they were working on this game for that long. And even more so if Saito was doing double duty on Transformers and this TMNT game, too!

But at the least, Saito has a largely solid resume of games. So I'd trust him being able to do well in both cases.

Probably because they legally can't talk about the game. It's one of the worst kept secrets in gaming by now (Bad Ninja! Ten Flips Now!), but it still has not been OFFICIALLY announced by Activision, yet. Notice how P* hasn't been talking about the game, either, and it's their own product, too!

Until we start seeing the first bit of PR and official shots/trailer, nobody can say anything. But I guess the folks at Activision are still on Holiday break or whatever...

Look at some of the arrogance going on in this thread, especially the last few pages:

So much bashing of the various TMNT universes. Ignorance.
