Because you have friends who bought the game...

Isn't there random online match making like other games? You don't actually have to know anyone to play online, right?

There is matchmaking.

But I'm stuck at Wingnut level and didn't find anyone to play with me in a random online match or in a room.

IGN.com gave it a 4.9 Bad.

Pros
Cool Looking Bosses
Decent Humor

Cons
Repetitive Stages
Too Chaotic for Finesse
No Local Multiplayer

My AI turtles support me just fine when playing offline. You control them yourself anyway most of the time so it's really your own fault if you're bad at it.
Better experience it first yourself than listening to noob players who suck at solo mode.

In order to temper my expectations for whenever I finally do get this game, I purchased a great looking DS copy of TMNT: Arcade Attack. Talk about bad controls, subpar graphics, and useless AI assistance. But at least it's linear and the cutscenes are fun!

These licensed games tend to drop in price very quickly especially with a low metacritic, so hopefully it hits $20 by the end of the summer then I'll pick it up.

I watched through a lot of the videos on YouTube, and I gotta ask: are the bosses really that fun?

Because the bosses looked fairly boring to me; just keep hitting-hitting-hitting-hitting-hitting-hitting-hitting with very little strategy...

What do you guys think? I'm excited at the idea of playing a new TMNT game, but after watching the vids, my enthusiasm has been curbed.

it does look Generic and rushed. I plan on waiting till the game is like dirt cheap 9 or so dollars. I still stand by my wanting an Rocksteady Studios Turtles game.

All bosses requires hitting tbh.

It really depends on your set difficulty. If you play on Easy of course there's no challenge. On Hard/Very Hard you require strategy to defeat them- constantly replenish your health, upgrade skills and choose which ones to be most effectively impactful, which turtle to attack with what moves, when to dodge or attack, etc.

I still haven't been able to defeat Shredder on Hard. Maybe because I just jumped from Normal end game straight to the final level of Hard. It'd take some time for me to even attempt Very Hard at this point.

And of course, playing it yourself is way different experience compared to watching it on YouTube.

Out of the Shadows remains GOAT TMNT Game.

That game is so buggy and unfinished. Controls are not as responsive at times, meh cutscenes and watered down experience imo. That slow beginning of April walking slowly like she shat her pants still haunts me.

I think TMNT 2 Battlenexus (PS2) is GOAT. Perfect 4 players offline play, great story, fun levels and boss fights, loads of exploration and secret items (bonus Turtles in Time game!), has Usagi Yojimbo, beatiful graphics, excellent soundtracks. Just t excellent overall.

The main things I don't like about Battle Nexus is that the combat feels downgraded from the first game, and the vehicle levels require a ton of patience if you want to collect enough crystals for unlocking stuff like antiques, and I'm still missing like one or two. Sometimes, the platforming is absolutely insane, such as the level where you infiltrate the Kuraiyama Foot Lab and have to get to the other side by jumping on a spinning platform with lasers in the way. And the poisonous bats... Other than those issues, I agree that it's a cool, fun game, but definitely not perfect. In my opinion, the style and the atmosphere of the game makes up for the flaws.

It seems that reviewers have a trend of giving TMNT games very low scores, and keep getting disappointed when they aren't like the old arcade games. As for Mutants in Manhattan's low scores, even Battle Nexus got a 4.6/10 (poor) in its heyday!

2D TMNT games have always been superior to the 3D counterparts.

Konami's GBA and DS 2k3 TMNT games were better than their PS2/Gamecube/Xbox versions.

Yes, the DS 2K3 games are awesome. And the CGI movie 2k7 GBA game is killer.

I'm don't think any of those DS games were well reviewed, either the one made by Konami or Ubisoft's two titles.
