I love the idea....I've wished for a sequel many years now.really wanted that kind of game after the new show came along.so many great characters.....

I also wish for a more free adventures game(big city-like gta).
I know many others have said it before me,but it would be awesome to get chased by police,thugs,whatever trough Ny.hiding in shadows,climbing buildings......

Oh well I can dream can't I?

Like a Grand Theft Auto / TMNT crossover?

I think that Damien may have been referencing maybe more of a GTA-styled TMNT game. I wrote up a synopsis once about a similar idea and sent it to Dan Berger back before Battle Nexus was released; I know it's somewhere on this board and I'll post the synopsis if I find it again.

I revamped Tmnt Fighter game with surroundings that can be used as weapons. With Like thirty TMNT characters from the OT, NT, Movie and comics. Also includes unlockable old school Games like the first four TMNT beat 'em ups and the earlier Tournament fighters.

Should a new TMNT fighting game be 2D or 3D based? I think a TMNT
fighting game based on the Soul Calibur engine could be pretty cool.


Hows about a 4-player 2D action game similar to the old Cowboys of
Moo Mesa Arcade game?

I wish they made a game that played like X-Men Legends. Then they could include people like Casey Jones, Splinter and April (now that she is a ninja too apparently). I'd like to see them give specific team-up moves too: All 4 Turtles, Raph/Casey, Leo/Splinter, Casey/April.

If done correctly it could be an incredibly fun game.

I would just like another game from Konami. Maybe the games arent that fantastic, but as the turtle fan I am, I am still having fun playing them. Based on season 4, Ninja tribunal, Fast forward or a fourth thing; I do not care. But if TMNT 2 will be maked, we will probably just see another game from ubisoft.

We will definantly see another game from ubisoft, Mirage has given the videogame rights to Ubisoft, so no more Konami (which sucks, because I too love the Konami games, probably just because I'm a turtle fan but what ever).

The great thing about Konami's games, are the combos and that you just are fighting most of the time, like in the old arcade games, and then mixed with other types of level, like the racing levels and shuriken levels.
It is almost blasphemy to give Ubisoft the rights :p I mean, it has always been Konami just since the first arcade games. And then Ubisoft's game didn't got better reviews than Konami's anyway.

I could see a fighting game being feasible, and I think it would actually be a really good idea, because it would have the potential to provide us with a game that had a lot more depth, but wouldn't be as unrealistic to put together as a KOTOR-style game. Nobody's going to put that much effort into a liscensed property like this. But if they maybe went in the same direction as the 3D X-Men fighters, I don't think it would be half bad at all.

It's just that when dealing with liscensed properties like this, you really can't expect all that much. Developers know they can end up selling the game based entirely on what it's depicting, so it seems like in most cases, not much effort goes into making the gameplay deep, unique and interesting.

What, no big green text?

Excuse my ignorance, but just what is KOTOR? I've seen that acronym before....

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. A very unique style of RPG that had 2 games for the Xbox. Was apparently very, very good, but I never got around to playing either of them unfortunately.

I hate Star Wars but those are my favorite RPGs. I've beaten 2 twice*and Iw ant to more because it's freaking awesome* and I've beaten 1 about 4 or 5 times. I'm actually playing through 1 again right now because it's been so long. I so dark side, light side with both male and female and now I'm getting into do it with every class as well.

I don't know why but the game is really fun to me and I love the story. It's way better then any of the movies.

Oh, I've heard of Knights of the Old Republic. The acronym threw me off, though. You'd think it would be KOR or at the very least, KotOR. Meh.

I stand by the fact that we need more 2D TMNT games. While I loved all of the 3D ones, the heart and soul of the series is in two dimensions.

I just want a good TMNT fighting game in the same vein as Soul Caliber. I don't even care if it uses the same engine and everything but with different character models. That would be so friggin' sweet.

An open-ended GTA-style game would be cool too, though. I don't think they could pull off a good TMNT RPG, though. KotOR was an excellent game, but I don't think it suits the TMNT. TMNT games should be all about ninja-ing and street fights. Anything else just seems kinda wrong. Sure, TMNT games can have stories -- I'm not against that -- but they should not be in the RPG sense.

The trip to a KOTOR/GTA styled TMNT game is a long and creative enough story that would be added to canon (or not I guess) and get PL's approval. I agree with you Shelf, a SC style fighting game would be amazing. Although the last SC game I played, 4 I believe, I have my turtle characters in there. There's a Raphael lol, the dude with the nunchukus is my mikey, etc. I know, I'm a dork lol

Yeah, you are completely right, and I think it is sad when there actually is a great opportunity to make a wonderful game with the green dudes. But as you mentioned; it sells just because it contains the turtles. Of course it makes the games more fun, and the games arent so bad when you are a fan. But sure, I am a bit subjective because of that reason I think the games are great, but it would be nice to see an almost perfect game in the future. Things like the part in TMNT 3 where you upgrade your turtle would be cool.

I think a game independent of a film or cartoon plot is the obvious first. But I like the look of the new film and how Ubisoft handle games, so that's perfectly fine.

As said many a time, something like GTA with a free-roaming city (one where you couldn't just walk round in broad daylight and are advised to stick to rooftops) would be very good and I think if it had a plot maybe that covered the whole back catalogue of TMNT ideas in terms of stories then it would work very well. I've heard the Lego Batman game is supposed to be independent of the films (and rightly so considering the latter ones before Begins), featuring all the villains and that's a great idea.

I would also like to see a more intelligent combat system in terms of the fact that you have enemies with all different sorts of weapons besides the turtles so perhaps how you block or attack affects things.

Say for example someone attacks Raphael with a sword, slashing straight down: he could block it with a sai and then deliver a kick as a counter. Whereas if someone attacked Don he'd have to be careful not to have his staff cut in two and would therefore maybe deflect the blow or sidestep it. It's something I've never seen done before and I think would make a very engaging fighting system if done right.

Hmmmm, I think I remember the official site saying, or maybe somewhere else that there was going to be a new TMNT game and they were going to use the same 3-D models from the movie for it. It was going to be released on a system that had not previously received a TMNT game based on the movie. PS3 possibly?
