Play MagazineEven though the action is stiff, the animation poor and the controls occasionally not as responsive as I'd like, I'm able to overlook it simply because there aren't too many four-player co-op action games out there, let alone ones with platforming elements generously incorporated into the mix - but I'd never play it solo.

Adds some cool new gameplay features, like the ability to hot-swap between the four turtles. However, the biggest glaring problems in the first game (weak AI, bland levels and repetitive gameplay) rear their ugly heads this time around, as well.

Sadly, the shoddy controls, frustrating platform puzzles and sub par enemy AI keep Battle Nexus from succeeding.

It quickly degenerates into as absurd a mess as four turtles that are supposed to be ninjas with a rat for a sensei sounds like on paper. As Michelangelo might say, "cowabunga dudes, this is one gnarly game wreck."

PC GamerAll you get here is abysmal action, miserable controls, and a story ripped piecemeal from the cartoon. [March 2005, p.75]
