I am cautiously optimistic. Reminds me of the art of the "secret origins of the foot" story the comic is doing now.

that comic character art is great, especially in context. the game art is very gross though.

 

[fernoca]

Hmmm...doesn't look bad. Keeping an eye out.

 

[kitsuneyo]

Gritty and realistic to coincide with the not gritty and not realistic smash hit cartoon. Smarts!

It has to be realistic, because ninja turtles fighting crime is realistic. Besides, anything else is just for 8-year-old nieces.

Yeah it's ugly.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Would love a game with a similar tone to Steve Barrons TMNT movie and get Kevin Clash to do Splinter again.

 

[MightyKAC]

Looks like it could be a decent game actually, but I'm not touching it with a 10ft pole without seeing a demo.

 

[RPGCrazied]

I sighed at the end when it said download this summer, so its a download game. I hope the price reflects that.

Can we ever have a story driven turtles games? Probably not, oh well.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Key word is Mutant, fuck me they're hideous.

 

[gabbo]

Don't like their faces, but the rest doesn't look too bad. Will wait and see what else is shown before pulling the trigger on this.

 

[G-Fex]

is this how the new movie will look like?

 

[alfredofroylan]

I'm at work right now, but Do we have classic banana raincoat April or the awful new model?

 

[Bleeether]

Ohhhh yeaaaaaa. If not on the PC I'm gonna have to dust off my xbox.

Cartoon style would have been amazing, but that's not going to stop me from checking this out. The TNMT movie wasn't a cartoon and i still love(d) that movie.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Looks a little too Raph.

 

[NoirVisage]

Just about every TMNT adaptation has been made for your 8 year old nephew.

do you understand what a graphic novel is? Do you want to refresh your memory and look it up? The movie was pretty serious stuff, no rainbows coming out of anyone's butts.
Skeletor pls..

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Well congrats Red Fly on a hideous art-style when a good low-poly one was already laid out for you:

They just look poorly modeled/rigged in the game. Their heads look terrible and look at raph's forearm, ankle, and fists. lol

The cartoon's art style would have worked much better for the low specs of this game.

 

[El Pescado]

The cartoon is fantastic. Are these abominations based on Bay's movie?

Did anyone else notice Donatello's robot legs?

Spoiler

Can I get SNES Turtles In Time on the eShop please? Konami? Activision?

I said adaptation. That means every movie after 1, every single cartoon show...pretty much everything except the source materials was made for children. The turtles are as popular as they are because most of the media for it is aimed at children.

 

[Teknoman]

I bet they are based on Bay's since they are supposed to be aliens instead of mutants there?

Anyway I really havent run into a game that could top TMNT 3 or 4 yet...

Heck, even the original comics were pretty kid friendly, nothing more gruesome or serious than any other comic. And man do I hate the term graphic novel. I hope NoirVisage was just trolling.

 

[TheOGB]

Wait

There's actually a Michael Bay movie coming?

kid friendly=/= teen friendly

what do you can a hard cover book full of images and text?
a comic book?

if you have a better name, let me know, otherwise;

Geo0Jr pls -__-

Wait

i have protections in place to make sure this doesn't happen.

 

[Sanjuro]

Holy shit does that look bad.

Re-Shelled is GOTY material compared to this.

 

[MaverickHunterAsh]

I'm worried about it being downloadable, but fuck me, but that actually looks... good. I'm cautiously optimistic.

Being designed for 8 year olds isn't a bad thing is my point (specifically because almost everything turtles is). I thought the recent CG movie was great. Raph vs. Leo was so good.

Also, Megan Fox as April makes me want to get in a grave and die. Hurry and activate whatever protections you have. I'm pretty sure the next thing will be mousers with ethnic accents spouting one liners at every opportunity.

 

[dysonEA]

Would buy! if for Wii U ... why no Wii U port? ... guess its a no buy

Well, what 8 year old didn't read a teen friendly comic? And the reason I hate the term graphic novel is because it's often used by people who are afraid of calling their pictures books what they really are. By the way, I'm a huge comics fan. Might not be the most active user in comic-gaf, but I still love me some com-errr graphic novels ^.^

 

[Pie and Beans]

Smash hit cartoon huh?
I have the original graphic novel sealed, took 2 buses and walked for miles to see the first film.. i think i'll take the one that looks like it wasn't made for my 8 year old nephew thank you. I can't believe you're serious. This looks good, their interpretation looks a lot better than people give it credit for..i understand people have different tastes and opinions, but yaw'll are bordering on ridiculous with your hate for it. all that needs to fall into place now is the gameplay, they have my attention, now earn my monies.

I also had my reservations about this gaudy looking CGI cartoon, but the writing, pace, and everything just sells it as probably the best Turtles animated incarnation.

Better yet, all the designs leant themselves massively to a videogame production.

Wish Ubisoft had kept the TMNT license and they could have made some awesome Assassins Creed/Naruto: Rise of a Ninja hybrid.

 

[Barrel Cannon]

I wonder if it will be the TMNT title to finally overthrow TMNT 3 as the best TMNT game.

I'll take crap graphics if the stage designs are good and if the combat system is better than the turd system that re-shelled used

The cartoon is actually quite good.

i have slept on everything turtles since the horrible 3rd film and the first cartoon reboot..
admittedly nostalgia goggles are crazy glued to my face.

but yeah, if Michael Bay wants to keep making (at best middling)movies, he'll leave that property alone.

 

[Minyobi]

All I ask is that it is a good brawler.
It doesn't really matter what the turtles look like.

 

[fart town usa]

Their faces remind me of Goomba from the mario bros movie.

 

[Lombax]

Keep it old school and release it on steam and I am there day 1.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Day 1. Please be decent. I'm not asking for perfection or anything. Just don't make me hate myself for buying this

 

[dan2026]

The only Turtles thing I have ever really liked is the current IDW comic book series.

It has the perfect blend of serious themes (war/murder/viiolence) and quirky fun stuff (ninjas/aliens/mutants).

Turtles should always be smack bang in the middle, not too kiddy and not too gritty.

 

[wingz]

DAMN, The artstyle is HIDEOUS. The new cartoon looks amazing, why didn' t they use that artstyle? DAMN, MY EYES, THEY BLEED.

 

[The Light]

I must be the only one in this thread who hates the new cartoon art style.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

I must be the only one in this thread who hates the new cartoon art style.

I don't like it either

 

[dysonEA]

I must be the only one in this thread who hates the new cartoon art style.

Nope, I don't like it either. Just don't dig it. And whats with the original Raphael voice actor doing the voice of Donatello now. Makes me feel weird.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Looks interesting. I'll wait for the demo of course.

I like how the new CG cartoon looks, I wish they would had went with that style. But if this is based on the supposed movie and they are aliens, idk, lol. We shall see.

I also liked the last CG movie. I would had liked more of that!

 

[nikos]

Looks promising. Hopefully they deliver.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Nope, I don't like it either. Just don't dig it. And whats with the original Raphael voice actor doing the voice of Donatello now. Makes me feel weird.

Best guess is that they felt Rob doesn't fit the serious tone of Raph? I would've put him as Raph anyway if I was calling the shots.

 

[MYE]

HAHA those are some fucking ugly Turtles

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Donny has a robot leg?

Didn't that happen in one of the Mirage series years ago?

 

[NEO0MJ]

Best guess is that they felt Rob doesn't fit the serious tone of Raph? I would've put him as Raph anyway if I was calling the shots.

But he's doing such a great job as Don.

What a fool you are. I'll have you know the new TMNT cartoon is nothing short of amazing.

 

[Chairhome]

I feel like anybody bagging on the new TMNT cartoon is someone who hasn't seen it.

 

[Hero of Legend]

But he's doing such a great job as Don.

Never said he wasn't. But it is odd he's not Raph, just saw an interview where he said the choice as Don was due to their vision (naturally).

 

[Rickenslacker]

I feel like anybody bagging on the new TMNT cartoon is someone who hasn't seen it.

April is horrible now because she's not an '80s hottie in a jumpsuit. Rest is good.
