I have turtles in time. My story set up is different from the first prehistoric boss, My boss is Slash. and on the 3rd level shredder never appears. Also I have an extra level after that level where you for the boss throw enemies at the screen. Do I have a different version
They should try a new approach to TMNT games imho. Look at Arkham Asylum, took Batman made its own story, and its own version of the characters. I would love to see a TMNT that is not just a beat em up, but has some platforming and stealth elements. Maybe the beat em up with all characters on screen camera should be dumped for a third person melee combat like experience. I don't know. But remaking or just releasing more of the same isn't a good idea.
Actually the Clay face ripoff is actually the clay monster from the 2nd season of the classic 87 cartoon were Baxter summoned a clay creature from Shredder's modified helmet.
dont remake old video games, the true fans still have them anyways, fuck the new donkey kong, nba jam, and alterd beast, i have all the originals, way better
Very neat and reasonable review . I am agree with you guys. Let me say my thought about remake of this game. I have Idea to be remarked in OPEN Bor project. But few things I like to see changed .
1. Longer levels, the levels in oriignal SNES & Arcade version was too short (whole game was too short)
2. More bosses: Bebop , Rocksteady, Dirtbag etc.
3. Original soundtrack to be kept and untouched. (SNES or Arcade)
4. More levels. If someone make remake let's be like expansion.
@XOneGameR For example: Two Technodrome levels, Two fights with Shredd (from original game & then few levels later like Super Shredder)
05. Appearance of Casey Jones. I don't understand why in neither one of the old games he did't take part. He was one of my fav. side characters. (exp. Tournament Fighter
Basically this is the game that I want to see. I'ts no need to be called Turtles In Time. Just a new game based on levels on Turtles In Time and Original Arcade game, longer, and more levels .
I know alot of people dont like this game at all which i believe is due to nitpicking. Ya when you compare it to the original, it ain't as good. But the game compared to the way games are today, it actually isn't that bad. Think about it, how many games you see being made like this anymore? Not that often. Also, yea the music isn't as good as the original and I do wish they did have the original too but im sure thats due to copyright bullshit. Again though this is just my opinion.
The is NO EXCUSE for changing the boss music. If it was in all three editions of Turtles in Time (Arcade, Snes, and Genesis (which would be Hyperstone Heist)) THEN ADD IT INTO THE REMAKE. Sheesh I swear they mess up some of the most epic games just for some quick cash.
Out of all three versions of Turtles in Time that exists, I would much rather play the SNES version than the Arcade and Reshelled versions. The SNES version felt like it had far more content, refinement and polish.
i just bought this game for 400 MSpoints and i personally think it was a good remake i have always loved the retro games of the 90's ans this i thought was a great feature to the xbox arcade
SNES is better than this, from the looks of it it skips the technodrome and the mud man is Slag in SNES so yeah I don't know I just like the older look it's nicer more colorful and theres no lighting.
It's so much easier to play through this game solo, which is unfortunate. It seems to be a much faster-paced game with even more players. Also, more pizza for yourself in case you need it. Best to go through survival mode alone.
I'm looking for someone who has downloaded Prototype or Borderlands on the Playstation Store to gameshare. I've got Fat Princess with Fat Roles, Battlefield 1943, Batman Arkham Asylum all paid DLC, Burnout Paradise with Big Surf Island DLC and car DLC, and Red Faction Guerilla. Message me on YouTube for a gameshare opportunity.
In my opinion, the less colour, the better cos the original TMNT was much more dark and vilent than the later made cartoon series.. FYI the film was baed on the comics!
Nice review. I wouldn't buy this game normally, but considering it's only $2 today for Black Friday, it's probably worth it. I doubt I won't get my $2 worth out of it.
Even though this looks inferior to the original arcade game, I'd like to see them make a sequel to this with the same kinda gameplay with improvements, as well as new bosses like Groundchuck, Slash, Dirtbag, Pizza Face, Anthrax, Chrome Dome, Scumbug, Scratch, Super Rocksteady & Mighty Bebop, and Scale Tail, as well as Triceratons as regular enemies among the Foot Soldiers and Rock Soldiers.
@EffnDan Eh, I wouldn't say I'm a huge Turtles fan (though I did do some research on some stuff about them), but I will say that I freakin love the arcade games!
first, I thought Rocksteady and Bebopp were on the pirate ship in this game. Second, isn't Rocksteady and Bebopp here at this game at all??? And wont the turtles be in the Technodrome?
@movienaut whoever thumbs upped this is a fucking dumbass. Its comparing the Arcade version not the SNES version. Obviously you never made it very far in either game because you didn't notice how Neon Night Riders scrolls in the arcade compared to the SNES version.
@movienaut The game looked great until I noticed that there where huge differences between the SNES version and this one. I will play the SNES version any time over this version.
No Rocksteady and Bebopp, no Tecnodrome, Slash not in the prehistoric level...sorry won't buy it.
i have this for the ps3, it's the same so i feel i can comment, the lighting i agree is bad but the 3d is nice i had forgotten what the arcade version of this looked like i was compairing it to the snes version and was thinking they had more stuff wrong than they did glad i found this, i hate that they didnt get the original music like the theme song from the original series for the opening and i would have liked the original voices vs the ones from tmnt that they used, but over all i loves this
@gogeta69z i love the 3d i love that it has trophies and online play and you can play with 4 players finally at home and it's only 9.99, and at least it isnt that god aweful version of mk2 on the psn
I agree. It's not a bad game, but it could've been way much better with some unlockables or the abilitiy to play the original arcade game. But for 10 bucks I think it's ok, especially for people like me who never played the original.
I never played the arcade version of Turtles in Time, but I own the SNES version. After seeing u guys compare the Reshelled game to the arcade version, I have to say I'd prefer the SNES version instead of the arcade even though I haven't played the arcade version.
About the Dark Levels. It's staying true to the comic where they were shadowed by the night. It's suppose to be dark but I honestly didn't find the darkness that bad as you guys kept going on about. Maybe your guys television contrast/brightness was low.
I hated that Ubisoft didn't get the music from the original. I beleive that they could of have some kind of agreement to Konami. Anyway, the game is good, but nooooot that good. I would have giving it a three in a half stars.
I liked the review, very objective and specific. Actually I got this on sale from Xbox Live deal of the week for 400MS. I'd say the game is worth the full $10, though.
As for the rating, I'd probably agree with 3/5, maybe 3.5/5. The original is still better in my book, as is most often the case. Fortunately we still have the TMNT '89 arcade port on XBLA to compensate for the classics, I guess.
The comment about shredder and his webcam had me rolling xD But i agree with most people here, i always preferred the snes version and i still play it with co op but mostly i just stick with the 1989 tmnt game for xbla =)
not to bash on anyones opinion but is just me or dos every time a remake of a game come's out people automatically think "wow this is going to be shit" and only a select few think its good. of curse the remake is not going to be as grate as the original what do you expect a perfect remake? sorry but last time I checked this was reality not some fantasy world were unicorns live, rainbows are in the sky and all video game remakes are all perfect. sorry to be mean but thats what I think
i bought this game off of playstation network and it said its installed but icant find the game anywhere on my ps3 huge dissappointment wheres my game i paid for it i bought the fullgame of this game but its not showing it anywhere on my ps3 if its not for ps3 then wh ythe hell didnt they put that in the games description
All in all, I'm gonna say that it was a good attempt at a remake of the game, and it wasn't a failure, but it wasn't a complete success. The game ain't terrible as it is at least playable, but not as good as it's original. Many games are like that.
I just downloaded this game 2day. I love it. I think it's way better than the next gen TMNT game. I'm an old-school gamer so i only look 4 the little things in beat em up style games. U get the most out of the gameplay when its 4 players. One thing they could've added were some interactions between the turtles like tag team specialty moves. It's definitely worth the money though. Will they remake the 1989 Arcade classic 2? hmmm, i wonder....... Nice review guys.
I'm surprised that you didn't mention the cruel absence of V-sync in both the XBOX and PS3 versions.... There is no V-sync and no option to turn it on.... It could have been easily fixed with an update but the version still shows 1.00 as far as I can tell. This is the kind of problem that can make a lot of people dismiss even a very good game, and when it's so-so... well you bet I'm not going to play it much. It's not something you can learn to ignore, it just tortures you the whole time...

It looks good for 4.99 on sale! even the regular 10.00 price is still worth it. what did you expect? think about the time and money invested on this game for it to be sold for 10 dollars. I'm gonna buy it regardless of this review... good presentation though guys keep up the good work!
I agree with the 2.5 score since I also felt frustrated by the change in gameplay mechanics (the grapples/throws were more difficult to trigger in the new version). I give the Ninja Turtles franchise 5 stars but give this game 2.5 stars.
Either way, wasn't it a spectacular reiew? The editing was one of our best yet, the title card cartoon was amazing and all in all the presentation of the video was down right great! Regadless on what you thought on the game or not, everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and we as individual human beings did not like this remake what-so-ever. We're not saying NOBODY is allowed to like it, different strokes for different folks. Just saying a direct port of the arcade would have been better.
Do you think the drop in price makes it more worth it? I haven't played the SNES version in so many years and honestly as I grew older and the style changed I just started to hate the turtles. I just got done with the demo and I have mixed feelings pretty much exactly like what you guys said. Is this remake worth $5 to you guys?
The game's lighting is a lot more artsistic in the new version. If you can't appreciate the fact that it's dark outside at NIGHT TIME then you're not going to enjoy any game. 2/5
After thinking about this game, I felt that reshelled came down with the "Napoleon Dynamite" Problem. Even though the remake is good and the graphics and sound made it more like the original comics, some complained the game about them. Others complained that its not like the SNES game, though the remake is directly from the orginal arcade.
This is how the remake got into the love it or hate it situation.
Hey guys, nice review. The train level and the neon night riders level have impressive designs, compared to the original arcade levels. But the rest of them are too dark.
all the things wrong with this game: cant flip, slide and attack on your back, the specials look pathetic compared to the original arcade they cut down alot of moves that made the game what it was plus the turtles dont have funny animations that they do when they stand still this game was stripped of its coolness for graphics which is gay and is being done with most games nowadays
Look I played the original "turtles in time" tons of times when I was a kid. You cant commpare what it was before 2 what it is now. It's called "reshelled" for a reason. Honestly my brother compared the game 2 the original too but the thing is it's not suppose to be exactly the game if it was the original wouldn't be a classic. if you guys are so upset about how horribly they remade this game and yearn for the golden years, there is a simple solution, go get yourself a SNES and play the original
i have to defend this even though i only played the demo these guys are ripping on this game way too much its a REMAKE for a reason if they made a new game completely i could understand them bringing all the points up they did the over crowding and lighting are really the only points that should've been brought up Although the lighting i think was more realistic the first level is 3 in the morning so duh its dark if they made more room to move and if they worked on voice acting it would be great
This is actually a remake of the ARCADE verson. The Version you are thinking of was the SNES (super nintendo) version and that one had some extra levels for the home consol (that was a port of the original arcade back in 1992)
You aren't even consistent in your review, you say the neo night rider level looks good then you say the colors are bad and you can't tell whats going on because the road is purple, and serious you complain about difficulty of an arcade beatemup? as far as not being able to tell where you are, they put a special function for specail people like you two in the game, hit left trigger and it will color coordinate your stupid ass so that you can SEE yourself get the shit kicked out of you. noobs.
Ok I think this remake was great.I have no problem with the lighting at all.The graphics are great and it is definitly a worthy re make to one of the best SNES games ever made.
You're giving this one an advantage by comparing it to the original arcade! The SNES port of this game is far superior to any other version, regardless of the number of players.
As someone still in love with TMNT-IV, I was pretty let down when the demo didn't meet the excitement I had during development. IMHO, WAY too much has changed for it to be reminiscent of the original.
Only serious problem with the SNES version is that the AI was retarded compared to the Arcade...Even the Gensis TMNT game shared similar bosses that has smarter harder Ai. Snes one was pretty though.
I agree with the dude in red, it's a fun game but I always lose my self when I play with three other people, cause everything is cramp on screen until you get to a boss. I would give the game 3.5 I wished they allow you to switch to original graphics like Super Street Fighter II turbo HD or have levels from TMNT IV: Turtles in Time to extend the game.
Did you guys use the word 'realistic' in a game that includes 4 walking talking ninjitsu trained turtles?.......Am I the only one seeing the irony in all this?
completely agreed with everything you guys said. the boss fights were the best improvement to me though. they were done pretty well with the original but they made them alot harder. i was able to record a full game on hard with all 4 turtles and its very hard to tell whats going on. it was still very very fun. the locator button helps alittle but by the time you see where you are you are getting the crap beat out of you. i tried getting a hardcore 4 turtle game going but people drop too early.
yeah i agree too i was excited thinking that the XBLA had a good game come in personally i really dont like any of the xbla but i am waiting for serious sam hd that should be good
I was going to download this game, but after playing the demo I was dissapointed. What caused me to not buy this, was the cheesy explosions the foot soldiers made when you killed them. In the original game, they fell to the ground, the body flashed and blew up, which was cool. The foot soldiers in the remake dont fall down, they just blow up where they stand, and these stupid gears fly out everywhere, that are too big for their bodies. Atleast show different pieces flying, and not just gears.
I would have liked it a lot if the animators would have designed the turtles' eyes with their cartoon pupils, I find them more appealing that way instead of their eyes being completely white, it makes them look evil...
Finally some guys who know what they are talking about. Love the comparison, and the points you guys made. Excellent review...I am a bit on the fence about the game, myself. I thought the demo was alright, just not sure if its worth $10. My girlfriend and I love co-op games, so maybe that will sway my opinion a bit.
The original version was actually released in arcades, and reshelled version is a remake of that one. The SNES one you are talking about was the home consol port of the arcade game which had added levels and charachters. including the technodrome level, slash in level 5, rat king in level 3 and bebop and rocksteady on the pirate ship instead of tokka and rhazar.
I love the Turtles! I have such good memories of this game! I love the shots of the different games and your illustration! I think you could be a great animator!

not to bash on anyones opinion but is just me or dos every time a remake of a game come's out people automatically think "wow this is going to be shit" and only a select few think its good. of curse the remake is not going to be as grate as the original what do you expect a perfect remake? sorry but last time I checked this was reality not some fantasy world were unicorns live, rainbows are in the sky and all video game remakes are all perfect. sorry to be mean but thats what I think

All in all, I'm gonna say that it was a good attempt at a remake of the game, and it wasn't a failure, but it wasn't a complete success. The game ain't terrible as it is at least playable, but not as good as it's original. Many games are like that.

I just downloaded this game 2day. I love it. I think it's way better than the next gen TMNT game. I'm an old-school gamer so i only look 4 the little things in beat em up style games. U get the most out of the gameplay when its 4 players. One thing they could've added were some interactions between the turtles like tag team specialty moves. It's definitely worth the money though. Will they remake the 1989 Arcade classic 2? hmmm, i wonder....... Nice review guys.

I'm surprised that you didn't mention the cruel absence of V-sync in both the XBOX and PS3 versions.... There is no V-sync and no option to turn it on.... It could have been easily fixed with an update but the version still shows 1.00 as far as I can tell. This is the kind of problem that can make a lot of people dismiss even a very good game, and when it's so-so... well you bet I'm not going to play it much. It's not something you can learn to ignore, it just tortures you the whole time...

I agree with the 2.5 score since I also felt frustrated by the change in gameplay mechanics (the grapples/throws were more difficult to trigger in the new version). I give the Ninja Turtles franchise 5 stars but give this game 2.5 stars.

Either way, wasn't it a spectacular reiew? The editing was one of our best yet, the title card cartoon was amazing and all in all the presentation of the video was down right great! Regadless on what you thought on the game or not, everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and we as individual human beings did not like this remake what-so-ever. We're not saying NOBODY is allowed to like it, different strokes for different folks. Just saying a direct port of the arcade would have been better.

Do you think the drop in price makes it more worth it? I haven't played the SNES version in so many years and honestly as I grew older and the style changed I just started to hate the turtles. I just got done with the demo and I have mixed feelings pretty much exactly like what you guys said. Is this remake worth $5 to you guys?

After thinking about this game, I felt that reshelled came down with the "Napoleon Dynamite" Problem. Even though the remake is good and the graphics and sound made it more like the original comics, some complained the game about them. Others complained that its not like the SNES game, though the remake is directly from the orginal arcade.
This is how the remake got into the love it or hate it situation.

all the things wrong with this game: cant flip, slide and attack on your back, the specials look pathetic compared to the original arcade they cut down alot of moves that made the game what it was plus the turtles dont have funny animations that they do when they stand still this game was stripped of its coolness for graphics which is gay and is being done with most games nowadays

Look I played the original "turtles in time" tons of times when I was a kid. You cant commpare what it was before 2 what it is now. It's called "reshelled" for a reason. Honestly my brother compared the game 2 the original too but the thing is it's not suppose to be exactly the game if it was the original wouldn't be a classic. if you guys are so upset about how horribly they remade this game and yearn for the golden years, there is a simple solution, go get yourself a SNES and play the original

Good review. Here are my thoughts on the game:
Good -
-The gameplay is mainly still intact, and the hit detection is better than it was on the SNES.
-The four-player support.
-Level design is pretty good.
-All bosses still intact.
Bad -
-The graphics are horrible. Lighting is terrible in most spots, and you can barely see what's going on. Turtles are also hard to distinguish.
-Too much is going on the screen at once, especially in four-player mode.
-The music is pretty much nonexistant.

i have to defend this even though i only played the demo these guys are ripping on this game way too much its a REMAKE for a reason if they made a new game completely i could understand them bringing all the points up they did the over crowding and lighting are really the only points that should've been brought up Although the lighting i think was more realistic the first level is 3 in the morning so duh its dark if they made more room to move and if they worked on voice acting it would be great

You're giving this one an advantage by comparing it to the original arcade! The SNES port of this game is far superior to any other version, regardless of the number of players.
As someone still in love with TMNT-IV, I was pretty let down when the demo didn't meet the excitement I had during development. IMHO, WAY too much has changed for it to be reminiscent of the original.
Good review! Work on your audio ;-)

completely agreed with everything you guys said. the boss fights were the best improvement to me though. they were done pretty well with the original but they made them alot harder. i was able to record a full game on hard with all 4 turtles and its very hard to tell whats going on. it was still very very fun. the locator button helps alittle but by the time you see where you are you are getting the crap beat out of you. i tried getting a hardcore 4 turtle game going but people drop too early.

I was going to download this game, but after playing the demo I was dissapointed. What caused me to not buy this, was the cheesy explosions the foot soldiers made when you killed them. In the original game, they fell to the ground, the body flashed and blew up, which was cool. The foot soldiers in the remake dont fall down, they just blow up where they stand, and these stupid gears fly out everywhere, that are too big for their bodies. Atleast show different pieces flying, and not just gears.

I would have liked it a lot if the animators would have designed the turtles' eyes with their cartoon pupils, I find them more appealing that way instead of their eyes being completely white, it makes them look evil...

The original version was actually released in arcades, and reshelled version is a remake of that one.
