  • Summary: Based on the all-new CGI TMNT movie, Ubisoft's TMNT video game takes place in New York City, a city plagued with fast-moving shadows and attacks from strange creatures. Could the wealthy and mysterious Max Winters be involved? New York City needs the Turtles now more than ever but they face their most trying time both as heroes and as brothers. With the fate of the City and their family at stake, it's up to Leonardo with Zen Master Splinter to restore unity and ninja discipline to the Turtles. In this highly immersive experience, join the Ninja Turtles team and experience intense acrobatic navigation, collaborative combat and powerful fighting moves. Engage in over-the-top Ninja action to reunite the Turtles and save New York City. Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo are playable, each with unique acrobatic moves, weapons and combat skills, such as Michelangelo’s fast nunchuk face slap and Raphael’s powerful Sai throw.

    It's certainly not terrible and the rhythmic jumping action has some fun and energy, but the fact remains that the game just ends up feeling inconsistent due to sloppy storytelling and, more importantly, an absolutely awful fighting engine.
  2. 45
    Coupled with the terrible combat, the game is only 2 hours long.
  3. The environments are no fun to get through, fights are infrequent, and the simplistic combat is unfulfilling.
  4. Avoid this one like the glowing radioactive ooze that it is.

    Ouch, what a poor game! Watching a video of the game play makes it seem quite entertaining, complicated jump sequences and battles look pretty good. Gameplay however, is a different story. Most of the "complicated" looking moves are acevied by a single button press, no skill or timing is required. As for fighting, its a similar affair. Its repetative and lacking any reply-value. I definately wouldn't recommend it! Expand

    It's awful, please do not make the same mistake as I did and buy this terrible game. It should be illegal for developers to make games like this and sell them at full price alongside great games such as GTA. Collapse
