TMNT Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I want to try and be careful in my review here.I'm thirty and I didn't likethis very much.The problem is that TMNT was CLEARLY made for someone who is a lot younger then I am.It feels wrong somehow to be ripping a game that the developer (Ubisoft) never really intended for me to play anyway.It has the same vibe as if I was whining that I couldn't ride around on my nephew's power-wheels quad.I did want to, at least, point out a few issues that I'd had though.

First, the graphics are somewhere around a pretty good PS2 game.This is not something that you're going to use to show off a next-gen system at all.It feels like (and probably was) it was ported over from an older console.I don't think it hits the point of being flat-out ugly, but not the least bit impressive either.

The game-play, I thought, was awful.It's criminal that one of the central themes of any turtles game since the original NES console was teamwork and yet we get no co-op or online multi-player?This feature alone would have been enough for me to make a purchase.The fact that it wasn't included is wildly disappointing and a total let-down.

The enemy A.I. is below average.None of the enemies I fought were particularly difficult and generally tended to stay in one place and not put up too much of a fight while I whaled away at them.Again though, this was intended for someone much younger; giving the benefit of the doubt, someone under ten might find this a bit more challenging then I did.It's also virtually impossible to die.If your health runs out or if you fall off a ledge you respawn right where you left off.The game is over, basically, whenever you decide to stop playing.

The game is terribly short.If you're motivated, you could finish this in four or five hours.I, again, feel the need to point out that this was intended for a much younger player.Maybe it would take them a while longer.For me though, chalk this up as a 'rental only.' It's an easy 1000 achievement points, but it's doomed to leave anyone over ten ultimately unfulfilled and not worth anywhere near fifty bucks for a new copy.Grab an xBox marketplace card and download the 1989 coin-op version of TMNT instead, it may be a little older but you'll have twice as much fun at about a quarter of the cost.
