Wasn't the arcade game included on one of the more recent Turtle Game releases?

Dunno. Those were the only ones I couldn't bring myself to play because they were so bad. Almost as bad as the very original one released on NES and arcade. What I do know is the guy playing in the link above is horrible. If you die in the first stage you either have no motor skills or have no idea what the concept of avoidance is.

I couldn't bring myself to buy them either after seeing screen caps and game footage. Then I read the reviews. I am so looking forward to this new game now.

Don't go too fast. The games only about 5 hours long....Though that still makes it around 6 times longer than Turtles in Time.

Sadly it looks like I am going to have to shelve for awhile since I start work again Monday

Spring Break is ending for me.

Sorry that was actually my fault. I had put up a new one and removed the old one as it sucked. Check the first link again.

The camera is bad and the button layout sucks on 360. Otherwise, I agree, great game.

I don't like the controls for the Wii but it's pretty fun none the less. I still can't do the tag team moves. Stupid Wii :-x

alot of game reviewers say it sucks because they focus to much on running and platforming than fighting and that the camera gets in the way, what is your opinion on this?

I honestly never had a problem with the camera. There are parts where it's in a slightly odd spot, but when that happens you're normally not in a position to fall to your death or hit a trap of some sort.

my only problem with the camera is when you go into rage, for example with the Nightwatcher, the camera draws back somewhat and time slows down. I then find it hard to focus on a character and connect with a well placed foot to the temple.

That's why I charge up my warp attack and just let loose with it. It autoaims and becomes a one hit kill.

I just figured out how to do that the other day. For the wii you have to twist the controllers to do special attacks. Instructions say to wave it... useless!
