PC GamerThe lack of any real challenge makes Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles hard to recommend for all but the very young set. [Mar 2004, p.75]
-
The presentation is great and looks a lot like the show, but the repetitive gameplay leaves a lot to be desired.
-
TMNT doesn't wear its nostalgic aspects particularly well, and the remaining components simply don't make for a very entertaining experience.
-
The visuals were nice looking; unfortunately the rest of the game couldnt stay up to par with the standard that they set.
-
A completely standard beat 'em up with nothing innovative, nothing that stands out, and a number of features that have been less than ideally copied from other games. Beyond that, it's a decent title.
-
There are some extra moves you can learn, but Tekken is better for fighting.
-
A game I want to love, but hate to play...a typical boring and repetitive brawler.
-
games(TM)The action is a little too samey, and things become just too repetitive. Aside from scenery variations, FMV cut-scenes and the odd boss fight, the game is practically the same from start to finish. [Jan 2004, p.125]
-
It is not that the game doesn't have its fun moments, because it can be that, it is just that they are very short-lived and don't really go any further than the first level. Disappointing.
-
Edge MagazineFeels cheeky to be criticising a scrolling beat 'em up for being too shallow, but TMNT is possibly one of the most tedious ever. Repetition is only acceptable when you're repeating something gratifying. [Jan 2004, p.109]
-
Computer Gaming WorldThe best game ever for gamers without the energy to move their thumbs from the A button to the B button on their gamepads. [May 2004, p.89]
