I don't have any problem with the movie designed TMNT. It's just seeing their sculpts being used a godzillion times in the figures that makes me ill.

Perhaps that's why I dislike them so much.

I don't mind them. If I'd been buying their likeness in the form of dozens of recent toys, I suppose I might, but since I stay away from the toyline they still seem fresh to me.

To me, the most exciting news about this game is the lack of a specific universe. No matter how good or bad the gameplay turns out, the idea that we could have something like Complete Carnage fighting movie Michelangelo is enough to geek out over.

I know I have to be cautious, but I am really excited over this game. The reason: "TMNT Tournament Fighters"
I fell in love with this game when I was younger, so I gotta be excited when I hear about any new tmnt fighting game, and the few details we have gotten so far are actually pretty positive in my eyes. If these are some of the core developers of games like Ninja Gaiden( one of my favorite series of all time ), and Smash Bro's, can't we afford to trust, at least a little bit, that they will put out the best tmnt game in a while? I hope so...

I wonder if it'll let you choose between a colored mask or red ones like the comics (obviously barring Raph, of course)?

Not obviously. The Mirage comics depicted their masks as near maroon often enough that if they are all just Raphael with a different weapon, it will look like we're getting short-changed yet again. That wouldn't be cool.

Hey all, I see that I've been getting a lot of traffic from the site... So I decided I'd do you guys a solid.

I have a bunch of new pictures over at http://infinitehollywood.blogspot.com/

I'd appreciate it if when you stopped by, you commented on the blog! Adding me to your list of reading would be appreciated too!

I posted some news from the magazine in there as well.

Some other notes, All four TMNT, Splinter and Shredder are confirmed to be in the game.

As of now it's Wii exclusive. Which means it's being developed for the Wii. No need to worry about it being poorly made.

Interactive levels include one where in ancient Japan if you knock over some lamps the entire level catches fire.

Check out more at my website:

It's movie style but we knew that already. They said it would be when they mentioned doing a game in the movie style after the first one came out.

Looks promising as long as it's not crap like Mutant Melee.

*Ninjinister* · 12-16-2008, 04:11 PM

Freakin' HOT! Thank you!

Having the option. The option, gobo. I'm not saying, "Hey, put them all in red and give us no way of telling them apart beyond their weapons." I'm saying, "It would be cool if I could pick Leo or something and one of his alternate colors would be him with a red mask. Same goes for any other Turtle other than Raph, who always wore red."

Also, thanks, Newton Gimmick!

lawl

But seriously, I'm pissed at the character designs already.

*Cipher* · 12-16-2008, 05:19 PM

I'm not naive enough to assume that the red-masked Turtles to the left of the article are indicative of their inclusion in the game, but damn, I really hope they are.

I think you missed my point, but it wasn't a very important point to make in the first place.

Quiet_Guy · 12-16-2008, 07:15 PM

Is this issue out now?

it does say the version they are showing is far from complete. i wold say that these screens are all they got to play. i remember seeing screen shots for castlevania on the nintendo 64 a year before it came out and they looked nothing like the final game. if it still looks like this in a years time then i think it will be fair to say it is not fresh or exciting looking

*Ninjinister* · 12-16-2008, 07:37 PM

We've known from the beginning that the characters would have been more or less based on their 2007 film counterparts. Nobody should be surprised or really all that disappointed.

Newton Gimmick · 12-16-2008, 07:38 PM

There's nothing to lawl about. No idea if the game will be good or not, but it's being designed with the Wii in mind. It's being designed under the Smash Brothers Brawl formula and team. A lot of the same concepts as well. Smash Brothers was one of the best fighting games of all time and certainly of recent memory.

So I'm not sure how you can knock it.

The designs I can understand that maybe you don't like. But the graphics look quite impressive, as do the stage designs. Clearly some time has been put into this game. Which makes it much more likely to be a decent game.
