Yes.
Magnalon's Destructoid Blog
Haha awesome.

But seriously, what didn't you like about it?

I'm on the edge, waiting to click "buy" because I'm an obsessed Turtles in Time fan.

Big Apple..3AM!

they probably just throw a 7 legged spider at you as a consolation prize

@Magnalon

Truthfully, I'm the same way. I am a huge Turtles in Time fan. I loved it back in the grand ol' days on SNES and Arcade. However, this re-release lacks the excitement and charm of its predecessors.

The main reason why it disappoints is because this version doesn't justify the price tag. Yes, I'm aware of the price drop from 1200 to 800 MS Points, but even still, the game lacks the "wow" and fun factors of the previous versions. You are basically paying for the luxury of 4-player online co-op and the achievements. Other than that, it's not much else.

Cherish those fun times you had with the game in the past, but you are probably better off not paying for this version. Try the demo to satisfy your curiosity.

@Master
I hear ya. [url=http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/xbox360/teenagemutantninjaturtlesturtlesintimereshelled?q=Turtles%20in%20Time]The reviews are unbelievably polarizing.[.url]

It's either

"Get it it's nostalgic"

or

"Download the ROM and save 10 bux"

Horrible!

I plan on downloading this tonight. I know it'll only take an hour at most to beat this, but that's OK. My friends and I will play co-op and get the achievements together.

LEAVE MOLYNEUX ALONE!

lol

I'm on the fence too. I like shiny old things, but I really need to stop investing in moon money...
covah's Destructoid Blog
The game sucks. The controls are clunky as all hell. There's always a delay it seems pressing a button to jump or attack, and it seems impossible to chain attacks together smoothly.
VashTS's Destructoid Blog
Is it just me, or does the music sound terrible? I'm not quite sure why, but it sound like a midi. Maybe im just spoiled by the awesome remix of Bionic Commando rearmed. Game doesn't feel done to me for some reason, from the demo.
ShawnKelfonne's Destructoid Blog
@Vashts: The music sounds terrible because it's all generic crappy-ass rock music instead of remixes of the original soundtrack.

If they don't, then that just solidifies their status as poopheads.
pedrovay2003's Destructoid Blog
I was all for this until I found out it was based on the arcade version and not the SNES version. The SNES version destroys the arcade version, so I don't know if I even care anymore.

Anyone who says something bad about Raphael is a racist.
Artemus's Destructoid Blog
I have a wait ahead of me for this one... Damn PSN won't be getting it until November. Ubisoft, you're mean.
I believe this game is going to be like the new Bionic Commando, I didn't get to play that game when it was first released, only I got to hear people rip it to shreds. Then when I finally played the game, a few months later, it surprisingly super-exceeded my low expectations. I now own Bionic Commando and love it.
We'll see if that holds true for Turtles that go back in time. Hmmm...
smurfee mcgee's Destructoid Blog
You are the master.
I played the demo and now I'm thinking maybe no.
I might just to play with my bros like old times.

 about me



You're all noobs; GTFO. Or stay to become enlightened by all the Master has to offer.

Are you a nay-sayer of the Master's teachings? An Unbeliever? Blasphemer? Douchebag? Just read these satisfied pupils' unsolicited testimonials...

Do what that person said, he is wise. /\
-Neonie

For the record, nobody.... and I repeat nobody, breaks in noobs to the forums like Masterledz. If he hasn't appeared with his ominous warning, you have to ask yourself if you've really joined Destructoid.

Truer words were never spoken, Master.

Masterledz? Internet famous? HA!
-backflip10019

There you have it folks; the Master has spoken.

Oh, and one other thing; I like semicolons.
