[Mlatador]

The Turtle design is not the only thing locking bad here.

 

[broham]

An activision licensed game. Yeah. Wayforward can do a lot with a little but they're certainly not miracle workers. I'm expecting a rushed game with a budget the size of whatever could be scrounged up from between the couch cushions.

 

[SuperSah]

You can just smell the failure emitting from this.

Probably gonna suck.

 

[RPGCrazied]

It's an Activision licensed game by Wayforward, so, no.

But its actually designed from the Turtles of the Nick cartoon, which I happen to like. I actually like some of WayForward stuff. Thank god they don't look like these turtles:

Those are nightmare fuel.

 

[sörine]

Activision should strike a deal with Konami to get their old games on Virtual Console and PSN.

 

[RPGCrazied]

And isn't that Legend of Korra game Activision too? They got platinum games, so it could be good.

Just because its Activision doesn't automatically make it bad.

 

[Skilletor]

As a 20 year long fighting game enthusiast I strongly disagree. The reviews are conflicted and range from this game is perfect to this game is trash. Yep.

I would love to see Betrayal 2.

As a 20 year long fighting game enthusiast, I'll just agree to disagree. lol

Art is definitely nice, though.

 

[Shredderi]

Damn that looks rough. This is from the same guys who is making the very charming Shantae game?

 

[Some Nobody]

Just let Rocksteady make a AAA, open-world TMNT game with Batman combat and 4 player co-op. That would make me immensely happy =)

All I want. Rocksteady would become my favorite developer if this were possible.

 

[adj_noun]

Aww, I was hoping for

 

[FloppyDelux]

Bridges the gap between s2 and s3?

When is s2 going to finish? :/

last 4 episodes are suppose air this month starting on the 12th!

also glad its based on the Nick show which is actually good IMO. But nothing will beat the 2k reboot

 

[Het_Nkik]

Maaaan. I can't play this. Even if the game turns out great I can't play it. The Nick cartoon's art style is just way too repulsive to me.

 

[Cyber Caesar]

As a 20 year long fighting game enthusiast, I'll just agree to disagree. lol

Art is definitely nice, though.

To me Betrayal controls like butter. What seems to be your problem with the timing of the animations and or controls? Do you feel inputs are unresponsive or animation is delayed?
Or do you not like the confines of having to wait for the animation to complete before more command inputs? Do please elaborate.

 

[TreIII]

He's definitely my fav.

They're doing Rocksteady and Bebop? Oh my...lol. Show is so good!

Yep.

Toys for both were shown off a few days ago.

Season 3 is going to be a trip.

 

[Host Samurai]

Now all we need is Krang and Tetsu

 

[Zach]

Did these guys do Double Dragon Neon? I loved Double Dragon Neon.

This doesn't look great, but I hope it's surprisingly awesome. And I hope I can play co-op with my son.

Yeah, doesn't mention co-op, just that you can swap the turtles with a push of a button. Maybe by the d-pad you can switch out turtles. Still a turtle game by default should have 4 player co-op, at least I think so.

 

[.la1n]

Best possible news for a TMNT game outside of Rocksteady. Wayforward may not have nailed the graphics completely but I believe in their talents when it comes to good controls and fun games.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

So this is why Shantae's Pirates Curse is delayed?!

 

[phileep]

Does this mean that Virt will get to handle a TMNT soundtrack? Oh god I hope so. Regardless of how the game turns out, it'll be sure to have rad music thanks to him. I think TMNT3 on NES is one of his favorite game OSTs, so I'm pretty excited at the prospects of him working on this brand.

Yeah, I'm concerned by that. *sigh*

 

[astrogamer]

So this is like the 6th WayForward game this year

 

[km3k]

Aww, I was hoping for

You might get it. Bebop and Rocksteady toys were revealed at San Diego Comic Con this year. They're probably coming in season 3, so if this game is between season 2 and 3, it's possible they'll make some sort of appearance in the game.

Yep.

Toys for both were shown off a few days ago.

Season 3 is going to be a trip.

Arg. Beaten. And with a better link too!

 

[RPGCrazied]

Also, is it just me, or do these screenshots seem like the 3DS version? Maybe we will get the PS3/360 ones soon.

 

[muyricosuave]

Isn't that the 3DS version?

I really hope so

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

It may play like Double Dragon Neon.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Will this finally be a good Turtle game to come out in decades?

With Wayforward at the helm, all signs point to no.

 

[Projectjustice]

What happen to those graphics? It cant be cause its 3D. Double Dragon Neon looks fantastic in 3D.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

With Wayforward at the helm, all signs point to no.

I think it'll be pretty fun. But it does smell of a quick license game to make tons of money and to fund Shantae for example.

 

[Platy]

Looks .... ugly

Wayforward can do prettier visuals =(

Bridges the gap between s2 and s3?

When is s2 going to finish? :/

September 12 the Season 2 comes back, then we have 4 episodes (2 normal ones and a double part season finale) and exactly 1 week after we have the first episode of season 3

 

[Alpha_eX]

Looks worse than Duck Tales, these guys need to hire a new art director.

 

[VLiberty]

WF nails a game every 2-3 bad games, and it doesn't seem like these will be one of the formers.

But if it's decent then I can bite for bargain prices on 3ds

 

[Mlatador]

But its actually designed from the Turtles of the Nick cartoon, which I happen to like. I actually like some of WayForward stuff. Thank god they don't look like these turtles:

Those are nightmare fuel.

 

[andymcc]

With Wayforward at the helm, all signs point to no.

they really understand 2D games tho!

 

[kodecraft]

Just let Rocksteady make a AAA, open-world TMNT game with Batman combat and 4 player co-op. That would make me immensely happy =)

I can't express my desire to see this enough!!

 

[eddfromtheriver]

At least they aren't using the artstyle of the movie.

Ha!, i was scared that they were gonna use those designs before i actually read the text and saw that it's based on the animated series, phew!!!

That said... graphics don't look good, i think OotS looked better (character models aside).

 

[Ganondorfo]

This looks bad, their last great game is Alien Infestation.

 

[nictron]

Bridges the gap between s2 and s3?

When is s2 going to finish? :/

Four episodes left. Resumes on September 12th, 19th and 26th (two parter)

 

[JordanN]

I wonder if Wayforward is aware of the shovelware attached to their name?

They make great original I.P's, but they have a whole lot of crap polluting their portfolio.

 

[eddfromtheriver]

But its actually designed from the Turtles of the Nick cartoon, which I happen to like. I actually like some of WayForward stuff. Thank god they don't look like these turtles:

Those are nightmare fuel.

...And still they look better than the ones in the new live action movie...

 

[PadWarrior]

 

[RPGCrazied]

Guys, I think the screenshots shown are the 3DS version. I wouldn't be so up in arms that it looks bad just yet.

 

[Andrew.]

Well this is a first. Never thought I'd see the day.

A WayForward game that looks like shit.

 

[andymcc]

Well this is a first. Never thought I'd see the day.

A WayForward game that looks like shit.

they finally look as they play

 

[@MUWANdo]

They got bills to pay. If Treasure can get away with it, WayForward certainly can.

Treasure can't, they've been irrelevant for years now.

And isn't that Legend of Korra game Activision too? They got platinum games, so it could be good.

Just because its Activision doesn't automatically make it bad.

The fact that this is something like the 4th TMNT game in the space of a year seems like a pretty good indicator of quality.

Does this mean that Virt will get to handle a TMNT soundtrack? Oh god I hope so. Regardless of how the game turns out, it'll be sure to have rad music thanks to him. I think TMNT3 on NES is one of his favorite game OSTs, so I'm pretty excited at the prospects of him working on this brand.

He did the music for the GBA game, the one by the team that later did the Scott Pilgrim game.

So this is like the 6th WayForward game this year

Yeah, I know people think they're overrated but they've seriously cranked out some garbage lately, way more than usual (and most of it 3D, too, which I'm sure isn't a coincidence).

 

[bon]

I'll keep this on my radar but...

 

[Platy]

Newtralizer eyes .....


ALso, where are the shadows of this game ? =P

 

[Lijik]

It will probably a completely serviceable platformer that lasts two hours and has some weird gamebreaking glitch in its final level or boss.

 

[Dicer]

Wayforward needs to step way Backward and do their own work, not this shovelware bullshit...

 

[Regiruler]

Well, I liked Double Dragon Neon and DuckTales, so I have a little bit of hope this could be decent.

A lot of the key people of the DDN team went on to Yacht Club. Sean Velasco was DDN's director.
