Why You Should Play TMNT: Shredder's Revenge!
Vložit
- čas přidán 14. 08. 2024
- The newly released Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge promised to bring back the old arcade style of TMNT action from the 1980s and 1990s. Something I, a 2000s TMNT fan, was definitely down for. It looked very promising from day one in terms of animation, sound and gameplay, but how good was the game now that I have played it? Well, I thought it was awesome! This video shall explain why!

I especially love that when you pick up the sushi box as a turtle, they would say "Raw fish? Yuck!" And as a non turtle, Splinter says "Mmhm. Quite delicious."
Oh snap! I never noticed that! I agree with splinter but it makes sense since the turtles want those wacky pizza combos lol
Honestly, ever since they made April a playable character it is on my radar. Plus the community are discussing REAL important stuff. Like April's butt attack.
To be completely honest, I share J's opinion: Even though Leo has always been my favorite turtle, I find April O'Neil to be the most fun to play because of her moveset, and it doesn't hurt that some of her moves are based on Street Fighter characters such as Chun Li and Karin.
And we shall continue to talk about the butt attack removal till the end of time
@@JEZ346 I never said I was complaining BTW. I'm just happy to see people who are cultured.
The Community are a "Cultured" bunch.
@@mechajay3358 it makes me happy to know that I'm not the only one who had a thing for April.
The fact they got the original 1987 tv series voice actors to reprise their roles as the Turtles, Bebop and Rocksteady, Rat King and Rahzar is a major highlight for me from the game❤❤
Can't believe you forgot to mention the soundtrack on this thing, it's phenomenal, especially the vocal themes. I did not know I needed Raekwon and Ghostface Killa as the boss theme for Shredder until I got it.
Oh man, I would want to make a full video talking about this soundtrack. It’s exactly in point and I constantly find myself singing the Panic in the Sky song.
People think I’m crazy but I’m just ‘fired up, and feelin gritty’ lol. This ost is crazy good!
April was one of my favorite characters to play as. Her speed fitted my playstyle
I started with Mickey but I did find April’s special much better for my play style.
'Party Dude!'
I thought the option to taunt and refill the super gage made things rather easy but then most of the old arcade brawlers focused on fun over challenge, and there are multiple difficulties if someone really wants a tough fight. I was impressed they got the much lesser-known Groundchuck and Dirtbag back for a dual boss battle, even giving cameos to Tokka and Rahzar.
Honestly, I completely forgot about Groundchuck, Dirtbag, and Tempestra. I was so wrapped up in the game I was like, ‘oh cool! New bosses!’
But then I remembered everything I watched earlier lol. I just get so wrapped up sometimes.
F tokka n razar 😆
The worst part about the game are some of the mission challenges. Most of them are fine, but the ones where you avoid taking damage from certain attacks, or god forbid, at all are just infuriating by proxy of the genre. Otherwise, the game is great.
As someone who spent almost two hours trying to get the no hit challenge on Mutants over Broadway yesterday, I really feel this. It's not like I NEED to do it, but goddamn I want to see that checkbox get marked XD
@@Daxinar0 I couldn't even pull it off for the first level. You have my respect, and condolences.
@@michaeloverton04 Back at ya! Haven't given up yet!
@@Daxinar0 I only had the patience to do the last level no damage lol.
Patience friend, you can learn strategies from avoiding taking damage, it can be difficult but it’s possible to achieve..
This is the greatest TMNT game in years. Usually licensed games are often games made with no love or care and only for greed. Even if it does have love and care, a company will screw over by forcing them to rush leaving out polish. This game is not one of those that suffered neither fate. This game is up in the leagues with the Arcade Game and Turtles In Time along with Simpsons Hit and Run and SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom.
I'm not even that big of a Turtles fan, but MAN this game looks phenomenal so I might buy it anyway!
Also, excited to hear you're considering doing video's on the 2012 TMNT series! Are you planning to a video on the 2007 TMNT movie as well?
same, I was never into TNMT all that much, but god those graphics look amazing, the game seems like basically a spiritual successor to the Scott Pilgrim Vs The World game, which I'm super into. I'll definitely check it out.
Do it well worth it if not get Xbox series and play on gamepass
If you have a group of friends to play this with it will Def be worth it :)
@@jaretco6423 That's what I was trying to say. You said it better yourself :)
Having never played a beat em up game, this game is a great place to start! So much fun, a lot of replay ability, and the online was decent on Switch
it's really not a great place to start, there are better beat-em-ups out there.
@@PNWAffliction For me personally I found it to be a good starting point, but what are some recommendations?
@@stormtalksgames Golden Axe Trilogy is a soft spot for me (Especially 3), also Turtles in Time is a bit more simple compared to Shredder's Revenge but it's also fantastic.
Try out Streets of Rage 4. Slower and alot more technical but still fun.
A lot of these games are fun, but for my money, I find Streets of Rage 4 to be the most fun. I also can't help but wonder if Capcom will try to compete by releasing a new Final Fight...
J. You know what we want. Give in. Give us the Teen Titans retrospective. Love ya, kiss.
For real, about time already.
I second this.
Well, thanks for watching all these years. I figured I'd respond to this since three people are in this thread hoping for the same thing. It's kind of weird to balance the fact that I have so many viewers across a plethora of different brands and genres. I mean that as in, I made the DCAU retrospective a long time ago, and ever since it finished, I have put almost no thought into what and when the next DC Cartoon retrospective is, because the DCAU was something I wanted to do in 2017 - 2019, but is something I basically moved on from immediately afterwards. I'd like to do Teen Titans, The Batman, Brave and the Bold etc...at some point, but there are no concrete plans for them to happen anytime soon. As the creator of the videos, I am just doing what I want to see. So I completely forget that there even are people hoping each new video is Teen Titans or things like that. It's definitely going to happen at some point, I watched those shows a lot as a kid, but...as I said, not anytime soon.
@@JsReviews That's really disheartening to hear. But I get it, you make videos based on what interests you in the moment. As long as the Teen Titans thing happens eventually, that's good by me. Cheers J.
It was a great game and imagine my surprise to hear wu tang as one of the boss fights.
The soundtrack is amazing!
Who's
Who?
I'm glad they reintroduced the throwing enemies at the screen. I've always thought that was cool. Can't remember which arcade beat em up had that feature but I feel I remember that as a kid when I used to play.
Also nice to see their passion come through with nice efforts
I do like these style of videos. Enjoyed it and have a nice day everyone
Battletoads
I remember throwing foot soldiers at shredder in Turtles in Time and was thrilled to see it again! The was definitely a highlight for me!
Is kinda funny that April butt Attack wasn't include in the final game when everyone is doing a butt attack even splinter!
Should probably clarify that Dotemu is mostly just the publisher of both Shredder's Revenge and SoR4, most if not all of the staff is different with SoR4 being made by lizardcube and guardcrush and this being done by Tribute games.
Yeah, I realized that a few days ago, but I figured I'd just go ahead with the video because it was already uploaded. Since Dotemu uploaded the behind the scenes, I just wrote that they developed it.
Small correction but Dotemu published both SOR4 and Shredder's revenge but the games were made by different developers, SOR4 was developed by Lizardcube and Guard Crush games, while Shredder's revenge was developed by Tribute games.
My favorite part of Shredder’s Revenge is the Tee Lopes soundtrack, probably my favorite work of his in a game.
I absolutely loved this game and it was exactly what I wanted. More turtles and more action cause I got hooked after Turtles in Time. The work put into this game clearly shows that they cared about the content. Plus I think its fair that you put this vid out now cause there is a lot of content to get through and this one deserves the time to check it out. Love the review!
Shredder's Revenge is the best TMNT game since Turtles in Time!
True, but sadly not high bar to clear.
I love that the remake of the classic theme had Mike Patton singing. He sings in two of my favorite bands, Faith No More and Mr. Bungle. He's also voiced video games like the infected in Left 4 Dead.
I really hope this game does well enough that they could get a sequel. Or at the very least some DLC.
I love this it feels playing at the arcade all over again it's just good ol'fashion fun one thing I want though is a dlc possibly making shredder rocksteady and Bebop playable
The only visual flourish I miss in Turtles is more crowds in the city. The foot soldiers are animated awesomely, but you don't see any people in the city draw their curtains or hide behind their cars or anything besides the intro of the game where a group of channel 6 employees flees the building. People on this game worked on Scott Pilgrim I think, and I thought it was cool how that game had a lot of people hanging in the background of the stages. It makes sense that peeople are gonna flee from the foot soldiers, but I don't think New York should feel deserted either. When there's cop cars parked around it would be fun if those cops were cowering in fear as you combo.
It did feel weirdly empty from people! I loved all of the extras like foot soldiers driving cars and story mode bonus characters behind doors. But there should definitely be more people checking in when a turtle is chasing Wingnut through out all of New York while blasting that dope song.
My friend and I tackled the game together and it was wonderful experience that jolted the 80's/90's TMNT nostalgia as we were two older gents who grew up during the hayday of the 87 cartoon and the original toyline J. This game is a sweet, must have for TMNT fans, not just as a sweet homage to the old beat em' ups, but in that it's a solidly well made game. In an era where you never know if the game you purchases is going to be a complete, well polished game or a complete train wreck that stole your wallet, and wasted your time; further gives the game credability in my eyes.
It's fun to play, plenty of replay value and the essence of the classic TMNT are on full display. So yeah this is a must have for fans of beat em' ups and especially the TMNT brand.
This is honestly like the Sonic Mania to classic TMNT. Tee Lopes even composed the soundtrack for both games. In the 2010s (and even back in the 2000s) I always found both TMNT and Sonic to have very similar concepts. By the later half of the last decade I thought both the turtles and the blue hedgehog had similar problems like identity crisis, but for TMNT I think it was warranted since 2012 was a Renaissance era (no pun) for the 1987 series.
Sonic on the other hand was struggling to move forward probably because sonic generations was meant to be a one time only ordeal. I know that there's something else I'm missing, but anyone can feel free to add on to this comparison as I'm sure there's a lot more to compare too.
Meanwhile, I think it's about time we get a video game return to an old anime franchise that has been long forgotten since the late 2000s. Maybe Chaotic, Dinosaur King, or maybe even Digimon!
Please consider doing a retrospective on the TMNT (2003) videogames (1, Battle Nexus, Mutant Nightmare).
Thanks.
I have history with TMNT 1 for ps2
Bro the tmnt group look SOOOO FLIPPING BUFFED IN THE BOX ART WHAT
If people are wondering why TMNT 2012 is so heavily requested it's because along side 2003 it's the most beloved TMNT show
I've heard about this game over the past week or two but didn't watch any footage of it until I watched your video just now. This game looks absolutely incredible and that's really cool that's only $25. Unfortunately I've had a huge financial setback so I can only spend on essentials and needs at the moment, but once I get my financials under control I'll probably purchase this game most likely on my switch so I can more easily play with my friends or even my wife in the same room instead of just only doing multiplayer online. Not to mention being able to take it with me on the switch of course
Definitely worth the money and it's unbelievable that they released it at 10% off right from the start. 22 bucks feels like a steal.
I haven’t played it yet because it came out on the same day as Neon White, which has had me addicted since release. Like literally the same day, same time, same minute.
As a massive fan of TMNT 2012 I would love to see you review it and give your thoughts on it
This game was pure nostalgia overload and I loved every single minute of it! Cowabunga! 🐢🐢🐢🐢
Tennage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredders Revenge is one of my radar, ever since i downloaded on my switch was the most superb played game with friends, is super fun and really worth the price
This with sifu are one of the most cool dope ass game of the year, it was a cool video pal, im happy that this game its getting some much positivity in the comunity
I do like these short impressions videos, they're nice changes of pace to have every so often. Plus from what I recall from other creators they like to do these smaller type videos between major projects as a way to still be productive but not burn themselves out from focusing on the bigger projects all the time. I am definitely excited for your future videos J. Even if they don't get me into the games themselves I do like listening to your thoughts on them because the way you deliver your thoughts on stuff is engaging and even when you say stuff about something I don't agree with you've been managing to get me to see your point of view a lot clearer and it lets me assess things from new angles.
Yes please do the Cowabunga collection when it comes out
This game looks like a blast. I hope that maybe they add the 2000 Turtles as DLC, even if its just Cosmetic. They could add them and even put in a Turtles Forever Stage.
I think I heard the team was hesitant to announce any DLC but I was hoping to hear about alternate skins. Turtles in Time provided a couple different color choices so that’s what I pictured earlier.
There was a podcast or developer interview where they mentioned a DLC skin they want to make is the 87’s disguised appearance where they have the hats and trench-coats. I would love to see that! I think there is a mod out currently for IDW skins where the turtles all have red face masks and April where’s blue.
Well the got DLC coming later this year
I grew up with the early Turtles shows/games; Shredder's Revenge is the best thing ever
They should do a Final Fight or Martial Law [from TV] next !
Battletoads and double dragon.
We're living in the best time to be a TMNT fan!
How? 2003 was 19 years ago
It depends on what incarnation you prefer. If you like light-hearted TMNT, then these times will be a slice of heaven. But if you prefer stuff like Mirage or 2003, then this is the worst possible time to be a TMNT fan.
@@teddybeer6206”If you like light hearted TMNT, then these times will be a slice of heaven.” Dang it, you should’ve said a slice of pizza!
@@IamaPERSON Heaven is objectively blissful, while a slice of pizza is very subjective.
@@teddybeer6206 ik, but I was hoping you’d make a pun
Good stuff J. Leonardo is my favorite turtle as well, I had a blast using him. Gonna take my time and run through the story with all the other characters to fully level them for fun.
Man, seeing this made me look forward for some more tmnt videos. I'm also really looking foward to the 2012 tmnt retrospective. You think maybe you can make a retrospective of the 2007 movie one day? And maybe even a retrospective of Rise of the tmnt, I would like to hear what you'd have to say about the show.
The best part is, after this game came out I’ve noticed much more videos out exploring lore and background for the turtles. I think JReviews has a long series dedicated to the 2012 turtles.
I’ve also seen more videos covering full timelines for the 80’s cartoon, 2012 series, and IDW comic series. Let me know if your curious and I’ll send you channel name if interested!
Errata: Tribute Games made Shredder's Revenge, DotEmu was the publisher. They also are composed of the same developers that made Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game.
Cool game. It's like a renaissance of beat 'em up games. At a recent steam festival, I played the demo of another potentially good game - Arnold Bounty Hunter. It looks more like the first Battletoads - there are not only fights, but also various adventures with platforming, hydrocycles. It also looks interesting. I liked the demo.
I swear to God, if they used the 2003 designs, I would be the first one to buy the game.
I played the 1st TMNT game for Ps2 and got so annoyed by the voice lines so I kept them turned off for this game
All I need is a group of friends that doesn't fuck up reviving the fallen, lol! Otherwise, SOLID game!
6:09 - You know, I'm not sure I necessarily mind it being easier in multiplayer. That was kind of the experience back in the day. Granted, the difficulty used to be set to "Quarter Goblin" so high difficulty is definitely fair. But there's something special about trying to play a game that's too tough and then asking your friend to help you and taking it on together. If the game scales up enemies then it stops feeling like sharing the load and more like a punishment for having friends.
On the subject of the combat I do really love how they were able to elevate the beat-em up combat without making the combat too complex. These old beat'em up games only had two buttons. (Standard JAMMA only allowed for 3 buttons per player. Probably why Genesis had 3 buttons.) SImple things like adding the hold a button for a strong attack and a button for an roll really do make the combat much more interesting without making it more complex. I feel like I'm playing a old school beat'em but at the same time I never feel like "I just need more quarters" which is how many old beat'em up games often felt. When I get hurt I always feel like it's because I didn't use my toolkit effectively. A toolkit I always have full access too because I don't have to memorize long input chains or complex inputs. Simple inputs using a few buttons with lots of options to deal with varied enemy types. Easy to learn, difficult to master.
Oh yeah and the special gauge instead of HP and hitting jump and attack at the same time to do an upward attack were also great. That and putting in the double jump which made it easier to differentiate the inputs between the jump kick and the slow float while swinging a weapon attack. Just fantastic.
Literally every beat-'em-up is easier on multiplayer.
@@Mitsuraga I've played some indie attempts to revive the genre where they scale up enemies in multiplayer. It always felt gross.
Man I enjoy your videos a lot.
I think my favorite beat ‘em up is castle crashers the only downside is grinding and not having friends
2022 was a good year for TMNT fans with Shredder's Revenge and the Cowabunga Collection. I really hope a collection of the 2003 games comes in a collection in 2023
This is a definite contender for my favorite beat ‘em up ever, the only ones close are Streets of Rage 4 and Turtles in Time
Same!
I’m hoping this game paves the way for The Simpsons beat ‘em up revival. My childhood would come full circle then!
It's on sale on Steam right now, just played through about half the game as a party of 4 with some friends and its an absolute blast. I'm so glad that retro-style games are experiencing a revival, the indie developers are killing it these days between the wealth of great modern 2d games and boomer shooters, what a time to be a retro gamer.
I didn’t grew up with 2d beat ‘em ups (I was born in 96) but as a fan of the 87 show I decided to buy this game instantly I was hooked now I’m currently tracking down the classic 2d beat ‘em up tmnt games
I have the game pre-ordered from Target because I want a physical copy and I cannot wait to get it!
The Beat'em up renaissance happening over these last few years is amazing 🙏🏾🔥
Shredder's Revenge looks awesome. I will have to check it out with friends some time soon.
We need a shredder revenge sequel
I already Played it and it was a blast, this is the best time to be a TMNT Fan.. even if I like the 2003 version more..
We love you J and your content!
This is literally a return to form of beat ‘‘em up games right up there with Streets of Rage 4 and the Scott Pilgrim Vs the World game.
Really nice game review of shredders revenge
Love that game
Looking foward to the 2012 TMNT retrospective
Hope that you make a video on the 2007 TMNT movie
Haven’t been able to put this game down, really enjoying the game.
I'm just hoping the Cowabunga collection is good.
I bet it will
Let's hope there's not bugs like Sonic Origins.
@@TomVCunningham let's just hope they don't alter it either.
How does one get in touch with the creators of this game? Do they have social media? We definitely need to get on them hard about doing a brand new simpsons arcade game. Imagine: the show has TONS of characters, many locations, the voice acting, etc. I think they would make it amazing! Plus we haven't had a simpsons game in what over a decade?
I may have not watched the og turtles but I had a blast with this game.
Pretty impressive and fun game.. I used to be the fan of only Leonardo but now I started to use others too, and often uses April o’ neil…
I don’t know if I am the only one who notice but I think they remove the quotes of every turtles when they hit the object like camera that can hit enemies. Can still be hear by April saying “Look out”. Is there any way to restore it?
Oh snap? Jak and tmnt 2012 J, your spoiling us 😂 (slightly unrelated note but: I also adore the games ost, it was made by tee lopes the guy who made the ost for sonic mania)
This game is fucking awesome. Leading up to it, I beat every one of the NES, SNES, and GENESIS games. So I'm attempting to beat Arcade on Gnarly solo (since I've done with in multiplayer now), and so far, I have been unable to make it past Episode 13 without losing all of my continues. The fact that I haven't beaten it yet since getting it day 1 really increases my love for it. :) Glad you enjoyed it, can't wait for you to check out the 2012 series, cause I think you're really gonna dig it. 2003 is still my favorite, but it's a close matchup between the two.
It’s so strange that this is how I remember turtle in time look like, literally, in color and framerate and bmp
its literally just a remastered Turtles in Time and i could not be happier
This is the best TMNT ever made
I just got the game today I’m loving it so far and hella fun to play with every character.
Nice video man, I just met Greg abbey at the lansing comi con, and he was cool to talk to
Cool to hear. From what I see on social media, the cast of the 2003 series doesn’t seem to talk about it much. So it must’ve been cool to talk.
@@JsReviews yes it was
That tease for the 2012 tmnt review has me excited now dang
Cool! A kid (if you weren't at least a baby and alive when the first turtles cartoon and game came out you a kid lol) likes this. It truly is a great game👍🏾
Game looks fun and the old arcade game is one of my all time favorites, but I seriously wish the 03 series could get something .
A remake of the 3 games
I just think of Scott Pilgrim vs the world the game when I see this game play!
Which is an amazing thing.
5:49 I love how Mikey is the one halting everyone's gameplay, LMAO. Michelangelo is a party dude, after all.
I can't wait to see your Jax & Daxter retrospectives especially Jak2
Have you considered doing a review of the Batman vs TMNT movie? The characterizations of the Turtles reminded me of the '03 Turtles so much, it was such a great watch. It checks every box you would want in a team up in the two franchises, and I would love to see your take on it.
Really enjoyed that film!
lmao that movie was Sh#it like honestly it was basically Cr@p like all the other batman and scooby doo movies
It will probably never happen but how awesome would it be for some Batman dlc.
All the personally I'd settle for the samurai rabbit.
Miyomoto Usagi.
And if they put Groo the Wanderer in there it would be an instant purse purchase, Sergio has ties to Stan Sakai.
I used Raph more than any other character, and Rob Paulsen still sounds great in the role.
Also, it'd be sick if we got a new Simpsons, Power Rangers or X-Men game in this style...or try it with something new...Gatchaman/Battle of the Planets didn't really get any decent games aside from TvC or those 3D Groove browser games...
Hell yes I love you’re turtles shit so much. Hope you one day release a vid on the 2007 movie that you mentioned in one of your past vids
my favorite game this year so far
This game was everything!!! As someone born in the mid 90’s, the early 2000’s have some of my most fondest memories; including being raised on the TMNT live action films & turtles in time, then the 03’ TMNT tv series, which had its own game on the Ps2. Beautiful memories.
This game is a must own for all turtle fans. I love playing this game, & I play it with my kids, they love it too. Perfect timing because the 2012 TMNT series went on Netflix & my kids won’t stop watching it! Going to show them dads TMNT show next! (2003 series)
I just bought this game last night and I like it i also bought the cowabunga collection because at first I though it included the shredders revenge and the classic turtle games for $40 but it didn’t
While I enjoyed the 2000s show and a GB game I borrowed from a classmate as a kid, I was never a SUPER huge fan. Never even had any of the games myself as kid, but this looks great.
The only beat'em up that could beat Turtles in Time is one just like it. Also, April best character no joke!
Do you like TMNT?
Did you like the old TMNT beat 'em ups, or any beat 'em ups?
Do you like great sprite work?
If you answered yes to any of those, you'll like this game. End of story.
do you like eye cancer, and no-effort lighting?! then this game is for you.
0:10 - Poor one out for this poor unlucky bastard. Man, you really missed a good time. :D
Calling it right now, Shredder is going to be a DLC character. I mean, of the bosses, he has the most attacks that line up with everyone's regular attacks.
This game is definitely worth the price of admission. I know that much.
Game lets you juggle fools as 87 April, smacking the shit out of them with a mic. What more does one need to know?
I want to know why the lighting and color scheme is horrible.
0:52 Not to sound nitpicky, but Shredder's Revenge was developed by Tribute Games, and Streets of Rage 4 was developed by Lizard Cube. DotEmu was simply the publisher
TMNT Arcade Action is back
PIZZA POWER
Growing up in a glass bowl
With chameleons, lizards, and tadpoles
It hardly enters your mind
That there's something better than this
A better treat than a carrot
Maybe a seed from a parrot
Believe me when I tell you
That the word gourmet just don't exist
But Pizza Power
A flying saucer food delight
Pizza Power
Ooh that's what makes us feel all right
Only thing I'm a little bummed out about is how they swapped their moves. Leonardo used to have that spinning cyclone which was given to raph. Raph uses too much swings with weapons that are meant for stabbing. And he doesn't have his signature torpedo move.
And they featured a rising attack. Why couldn't mikey have used a rising tackle for that? It was his signature move. Also leo's rolling slash from his double jump was donnie's move.
I dunno what they've got planned for the future, but if they're digging up more old cartoons to make cool games from I hope some of them watched some DCAU cartoons growing up. I was a little too young but I watched Justice League, Justice League Unlimited, Batman TAS, Superman TAS, Batman Beyond and all that after the fact, and they've held up really well. Some of the coolest incarnations of those DC characters. Would be cool if they had a good game to their name, the old DC superhero games I've played weren't all that.
Look I like the TMNT. My TMNT show has always been the 2003 one. It was awesome. Your series on it... INCREDIBLE. But I never got the hype to go back and watch the original (more than a few episodes I've caught as a younger kid on TV). I've seen some of the movies, never cared for the newer series but I consider myself a... semi-fan. I grew up on the arcade game. Me and my best friend back then we used to play it all the time. The lady that ran the trailer that served as an arcade knew her as if she was our aunt. Who knows how much hard earned cash we have spent there to our parents dismay. But still I sya that I like TMNT but am not obssesed with their media.
With all that established I have to say that I LOVE this game. I freaking love it. It's the best game ever!(yep that's a hyperbole but whatever I'm riding the high dudeee) So much fun, so full with easter eggs (and who knows how many of them I don't even get so...woah) and it's just nostalgia done right. When I started it I just couldn't wait to get back from work the next day so I can play again. Even my girlfriend enjoys the game and she's very gamer challenged...she knows the turtles from her childhood too so that helps to get her involved but she's seriously having fun while sucking at the game. xD This game is AWESOME! I want more of it!
Can't wait for some cool news characters
I got my copy yesterday, but I still haven’t tried it yet because I have a busy schedule during the week.
This was a day one purchase for me. Everything I could have hoped for and more. If I had to nitpick I'd say that I guess I don't like how the select screen is kind of a copy paste from Castle Crashers on up. Doesn't really tickle the Nostalgia seeing something like that but it's a little thing that's not really worth mentioning even though I just did. LOL.
Btw Dotemu was not the developers they were the publishers. Tribute Games developed Shredders Revenge. Guardcrush developed SOR4 and Lizardcube handled the art.
