Dante Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 GameBytes: This year is the 25th anniversary of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and currently there is a TMNT Road Tour Van crossing America. According to the Ninja Pizza blog a remake of TMNT: Turtles In Time is currently in the works. The game is set up the game is currently in Alpha, and plans to be released on Xbox Live Arcade, with a possible Virtual Console release of the original in the works as well. Ninja Pizza have also posted several screenshots of the game, including screens from "Alleycat Blues" and "Skull and Crossbones" levels. It's complete with the purple foot soldiers of yore, and it is certainly riding on the classic vibe of the original cartoon. According to the blog characters Tokka and Rahzar are in the "Skull and Crossbones" level, which is how the Arcade version was handled. Considering the huge popularity of TMNT 1989 on Xbox Live Arcade it's not surprising to see more Ninja Turtle games showing up on the service, but a complete remake is more than expected, and it doesn't look too bad for an Alpha build. Make your way to the Ninja Pizza blog for the other screenshots. I really hope this remake will end up being good.
Choze Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 The 3d thing is interesting though the detail is lacking. I did enjoy the original but it had little replay value. Getting tired of remakes to be honest.
dwarf Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I'm sorry but no, the game just whiffs of ubsubstantial boringness. It won't be special.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I'm sorry but no, the game just whiffs of ubsubstantial boringness. It won't be special. Its a remake of Turtles in Time there's no way it will be boring!
Choze Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Its a remake of Turtles in Time there's no way it will be boring! I used to play it alot in the arcades. Turtles was huge in the 90's
Mundi Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 The last few days have been so great in terms of gaming news. I am so all over this!
ViPeR Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Well I got Turtles Arcade for XBLA. I must say it's nowhere near as fun as Streets of Rage. If they sort it so there's actual hit detection and more than one move I might be interested.

The original Tutles game was, nostalgia aside, a pile of suck swimming through electric seaweed and getting killed by flying... blurs of pixely nothingness. Turtles II and the following titles on the arcade (which appeared on the SNES) were infinitely better. I can imagine this game being great, especially if they bump things up a bit so you can play 4 players at once

Funnily enough I 'thought' I liked it when I was a kid. However playing it now I realised how low my standards were at 6 years old. The game is bollocks. I could never really got into the SNES versions. They were miles better but I don't know there didn't seem to be any POW to any of your moves. I'll keep an eye on this though. I'm a sucker for scrolling beat em' ups.
STOOPIDDITTIES Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 I used to play this all the time on the SNES.... I can't friggin wait!
Jimbob Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 Played the original, was a good game. Will be interesting to see how this new look will work. And to see if it will be better than the original.
STOOPIDDITTIES Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 May not look amazing but I'm getting the vibe multiplayer will be a blast.

I could whizz through that sea level in about a minute. It was the city level afterwards which blew the goats.
Hero-of-Time Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 How much is this gonna costs? 800 points good sir.
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 So according to this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Xbox-LIVE-2100-Points-Card/dp/B000B5MD3G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1249405354&sr=8-1 Technically a fiver. Sounds like a pr0 purchase.
