Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time

Played this the other day and I walked away fully impressed. The HD makeover makes watching the intro fun again and the whole game brought back a little nostalgia even though it looked and sounded completely different. My only caveat was that they removed a couple bosses, one being the Rat King (I can't remember who the other was supposed to be), and they changed Krangs voice. Krang looked exactly the same and everything, except he sounded completely different. There was no Super Shredder at the end either...there was a Super Shredder after the regular shredder in the original right? A few things left a bad taste surely, but 360 owners need to have this in their digital collection.

I'm a little jealous that I'm not going to be able to play this game, as it is a fantastic game. It's sad that they removed certain aspects of the game, especially that last boss battle. Where's our TMNT love Nintendo, as I would download almost all the NES and SNES turtles games instantly (besides that first one).

What?!?! The first one is the best one!

I love the grueling challenge that many of the old NES games provide that you can't find in today's games...

Okay, I might have been a little hard on the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game. There were some enjoyable times when I played that game at my grandmother's house. I personally prefer the others, though, since I am a fan of beat 'em ups and the old turtle beat 'em ups are among the best.

Wow, we haven't been online simultaneously in a long time.

I feel you though. I love the beat-'em-ups too, with the T.M.N.T. series being one of my favorites in the genre. I'm hoping for a new/remake of Double Dragon in the vein of Mega Man 9... Classic graphics, gameplay, and tunes, with an all new adventure. That would be sweet.

I second that motion. Some classic double dragon action would make my day. Plus, who doesn't love the Double Dragon soundtrack. I wouldn't mind if Streex added a Double Dragon song or two to the music player actually.

It has been a while since we've been on simultaneously hasen't it Incognito. Nice to hear from you again.

Did somebody say Double Dragon music? If all goes well I'll put up some Double Dragon and Double Dragon 2 on the NES Player tomorrow.

And what's the official term for the genre? I've heard beat'em ups and brawlers.

Oh man how the heck did I forget about this one? I heard that it's a remake of Turtle's in Time Arcade. Now yes I never played this one before, but I kinda liked the one from SNES better because I think it has more stages and gruesome bosses which is awesome. Yes I would like to see the remake of Turtle's in Time from the SNES. That, would be pimp a** kickin.
