am i the only one....

Am I the only one who feels the newest..well not the not new now..but the TMNT game was crap...i was very disappointed. the controls were too limited and the constant voice sounds got very annoying..I expected it to be a lot better than it was..and yeah im pretty late on saying this

I haven't received nor purchased the newest Ninja Turtles game yet so I can't join you on your claim. But, I would like to know which system you have it for. Sometimes play control varies by console.

i agree. the 2nd game has less character voices and more special moves. My problem is the game control, it's very hard to actually exicute the combos.

Yes! Thats really the only problem I had. But one time I played it with my friend for like 7 hours stright and we were gods at the game we could beat any level without problems and we had the combo system down flat. But some how we lost it when we went to sleep haha
On the whole controls thing I think the GC version had the best controls and I dont see why any magazine would can a game that is way better then the orignial. I me really it is better in fact the first game cant even compete. Theres orignial stuff in it and they dont spout off those annoying catch phrases. The first game for the next gen systems was the first turtles game I ever parted with

Its in the City At War stage. level 9 I think just go to the left and you should see a lone box on top of a building. Just smash it get the antique and then when you show it to April the arcade game will be unlocked. It sucks if you have it for PS2 though because you will need a multi-tap to play with all 4 turtles.

On the main menu load your game and it should be there if its not then try going into Aprils shop and looking at it. Make sure it says you unlocked it

That they have no voice and the odd techno music in the backround hardly makes up for the lack of sound effects? lol I wonder what they thinka bout general Tragg and his partner

Weird.....I just got the antique, and the option for the arcade came comes up on the main screen. When I click on it it only goes to the blue screen with the TMNT logo....It wont do anything else. I have the GC version....

Hmm... I've got the PS2 version, and I don't remember the original arcade game stalling. Although, you do have to press one of the buttons to receive credits (a la quarters at the arcade). Have you tried pushing each of the buttons when the blue screen comes up?

I like the overall presentation of TMNT 2 much better than the first one, but there are two things that really got on my nerves: pulling off combos (like jester mentioned) and the weird camera angles. During some of the platform areas, I kept plunging into the abyss since I couldn't tell where my turtle could safely land. Oh, and I don't like the wall jumping. Took me forever to go up one of those frickin' walls in the snow level.

The second game had to many jumping areas.They made it to much like a Mega Man game.If 3 comes out they should go back to fighting every level.

That doesn't do your user name justice.
