I was completely unaware that there was a new TMNT on the way I loved those films as a kid.
Is this a new title made for the arcade or a re-vamp of the old games?

[Pie In The Sky]

Michelangelo was by far the best. Sighh good times...

[Retro]

A game. And a arcade game. And a film. My year has been made.

[Pirate Balloon]

I didnt know thye were making a new one. Man, i used to love the cartoons and the movie when i was a kid.

Remember when they changed the title to Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles?

:eek: Amazing! I have also heard that it is going to be 400 ms points! If this is true then I will have a wonderful birthday week.. ;)

[carocat]

400 points? Now that would be good. There are more 400 point games needed. :)

When is your birthday, Leigh? And why is it not entered in your profile? :p

[IcemanLeigh]

Wikipedia states that it will be 400 MS points. Which would be lovely..

Yep, quote from IGN.

Starring Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo in all their 2D sprite-based glory, this coin-op port will support voice-chat capabilities, offer 200 points worth of Achievements and, best of all, will only costs 400 Microsoft Points (US$5).

[Retro]

Got it. For nostalgic reasons is bootifull. But it seems so dry........

[IcemanLeigh]

Lol, it definitely isnt as amazing as i remember it. Still think a bit of 4 player online will be quite fun though..

Cant complain for 400 points either! Especially since I had 450 spare.. ;)

It is kinda just button bashing most of the time though.. lol
