TMNT game 2 ideas (2004)

[Gokhan]

i dont know how u did that when they have different weapons

[Jarrah White]

It happens...

The GTA Idea sounds great.

I know it's probly too late to implement this seeing as how screenshots are already up, but maybe for tmnt 3.
Konami owns the metal gear series, which means that the developers work for them. I say give them some key tmnt comics to familiarize them with the material, and let them make a tmnt game. The idea of a ninja just going level after level beating up guys just seems ridiculous to me, and can get way too repetitive, which is what you don't want in a game. It needs to be more like metal gear solid where you try to avoid fights and not be seen. You only fight if you have to or if you just want to. You could have a different storyline for each turtle or make it one big storyline involving all the turtles where you play as different characters at different times. the only bad thing about this idea I think is that i can't think of a way to implement a multiplayer mode, but I guess you can always go to one of the beat-em ups for that. Obviously this would be a very story-based game, which is something else I think alot of other people want. I would also like to see this game get at least a "T" rating. After all, if you use stuff like Katana and shuriken for weapons blood will fly. Sadly I doubt this game will ever get made, but I can dream...
Anyway, what do you think?

[Zog]

I think it sounds really good, but Konami would probably say that it is not "turtle" material. I mean it seems like it would be a little too serious to be synonymous with Ninja Turtles. But hey, not a bad idea at all.

[raphael_is_cool]

I think it would be too hard for the little kid market they're aiming at too

[Demented Utrom]

It's a brawler you know go through a level tons of enemies then a boss.

[milweskee]

a GTA style game would be my first choice, but if they have to have levels, they should incorporate the turtle's vehicles in the game. I couldn't believe they released the first game without the battle shell and cycle. You can do sooo many different awesome things with a turtles video game, yet they do basically nothing.

[batraph]

I can see what you guys mean about konami's hesitation to do the game I just described. Everybody came up with pretty much everything I would like to be done with tmnt 2 without the drastic things I thought up. Anyway, here they are:
deeper, more original story (by original I mean one not already done on the show)
more playable characters (of course!)
longer gameplay
save system in between levels instead of areas (I think I phrased that right)
more varied enemies

Remember tournament fighters? Well, I had this idea...instead of just another fighting game built into the beat-em-up, how about a full-fledged sequel to tournament fighters? The original I think is still one of the greatest fighting games ever. They could call it TF2 or something
Oh yeah, and I still would like to see a stealth-action comic-based tmnt game someday...

[Spitfire]

I like the idea of stealth action but that bores kids all kids want to do is be able to press a button and see the guy on the screen do something. If I was to make a game like this I would find a way to market it to kids and adults in one big bang. I would make the game hack and slash action but in the game I would have secerts. Such as collect all the hidden pizzas and you get to play awesome mini games such as a driving level or a stealth mission. Most kids dont spend the time to beat a game 100% so it would be great fo adults as well

[milweskee]

Screw the kids. They should expand their intelligence and try to play strategically. I have a 4 yr old cousin that learned how to play games like Metal Gear, and he's really good at it. He's a very very smart kid with a huge vocabulary for his age. On top of that, he hates the TMNT game for being so easy. Why should the video game industry make a game mundane for the sake of a child? Children learn faster than anyone else.

[Mr. Stay Puft]

How about a TMNT game based on the comic?

[Sanjuro]

.....umm how about.....

XBOX LIVE CO-OP MULTIPLAYER FOR THE ORIGINAL ARCADE GAMES AND THE NEW GAME!!

Yea, I bet you guys are aroused now.

As your cousin may be smart most kids arent.
As for playing the old games online you can already do that. They have this Emulatior that lets you do it with games like Marvel Vs Capcom and Turtles

[batraph]

Why can't there be a game targeted for adults based on the comics? Or does konami even have the license to make games based off the comic? Anybody know?

[Spitfire]

If they did heres how they got it or if they do heres how they get it
They make a sample of the game Laird plays it and approves of t or disapprovs of it. Once all thats done if he says yes then they can make it and have a contract to produce a comic based game. This could happen but I doubt it because if theres a turtles game for adults and the new law that says kids cant but M for mature games passes it will be a BIG problem. Parents will think Ninja Turtles is a adults show(even if its shown on Saturday morning on Foxbox) and then not let their kids watch it and then all kids of problems will arrise so sadly us adults will neve get a adult taste of the turtles unless we like make a half life mod of the turtles or something....I dont play half life but yeh

The bonus levels would just be short levels where you might fight someone real quick and such. The names indicate which turtle will be used, and maybe you could get extra lives or objects for completing them too, etc. The reason I put every single TMNT ep. is to make the game longer and let players recreate the tv series. The way these levels will work is based on the gameplay I provided on the first page. How the system would work is lets say for example, each turtle gets three lives, and one continue. Once every turtle loses, they may start again at the beginning of the level, but if they all lose again, they must begin at the beginning of the area. You can save at any point I'd figure. Any questions, comments, I'll get to them.

[KROW]

Hell. I'd play it.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

The main thing is, make the game less repetitive, give the turtles more moves at the start, and a big variety of bad guys, and make it more interesting like some Foot Elite ninja's could be bigger than others.

[Spitfire]

I dont know for a turtles game to be not boring it needs to be something besides hack and slash
