    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game should have been amazing but some serious issues have cropped up including collision detection, poor camera angles and most disappointing of all the online mode is bugged and even suggest that you delete and reload the game which I for one have done twice already and can't be bothered to sit through the opening scene a third time.… Expand

    I never played the Xbox or PC version, so I can't compare what they fixed with the PS3 version.

    So basically we were told that this game was delayed so long for PS3 because it was being 'polished'. All the bugs and glitches were being fixed. That has to be a lie. Like I said, I can't compare.... so maybe they did fix a few things, but this game is buggy and glitchy.

    The truth is, they probably waited until the TMNT movie trailer was released so it would boost sales for the video game. (yes, I know the two aren't related story wise)

    The camera angles in the game make it unplayable sometimes. The camera angle will glitch into the ground so you can't see what you're doing (in the middle of a fight). At one point the same cutscene kept playing over and over (DURING a fight), I had to restart my game. Even when the camera is working the way it's suppose to, it isn't very good.

    I feel like they got lazy with the cutscenes (comic book style). But that's just my opinion, some people might like it. (you can check them out on youtube to see what I mean)

    As far as the 'good' goes...... the fighting is pretty fun. There are a lot of combos and a good amount of upgrades for the Turtles. Arcade mode is fun too.

    Definitely NOT Batman Arkham Asylum fighting style (like a lot of people were thinking it looked like when it was revealed last year).

    As far as scoring it based on being $15.... compared to other games on the pan which are $15, I would say this game falls in the middle. There are some AMAZING $15 games.... but then there are obviously some horrid.

    Honestly, this game probably deserves more of a 5/10.... but I give it a 4/10 being of the poor job of fixing the bugs and glitches... or they just lied to us..... .either way, it loses 1 point because of it.    … Expand

    Absolutely terrible. I don't know how bad the game was/is on Xbox and PC... but the game must not have been playable on those consoles because it sure isn't playable on PS3. The only reason I give this game a 1 and not a 0 is because I am a huge Ninja Turtles fan.

    During a boss fight 3 of the turtles (including the one I was playing with at the time) glitches inside of a building for the remainder of the fight... I BARELY beat the boss with 1 turtle. Glitches like this and other glitches run wild through out this game

    I was at the menu in the game and clicked on "continue to HQ" and got a message saying that the game file was corrupted and I had to delete the game and re-install it from the playstation store.

    Camera angles are really bad, I can't even see what I'm doing half the time. The buttons they chose to perform combos are absolutely horrendous. The game is FAR from polished.

    I think this studio/developer lied about fixing the game.
    I think they waited to release it on PS3 because of how horrible the game is and they knew after all the bad reviews it got on Xbox and PC that they only way they would sell the game on PS3 is if they waited until the Ninja Turtles movie trailer was released and got people hyped about playing this game.

    Not worth $15.... only 4 chapters in the main story... al though there is Dojo for training and classic arcade mode.

    I'm one of those people who thought there should have been a discount for making us wait 7 months with ZERO news about the game. But I fell for the lie and I bought the game for $15, figuring it would be worth it.

    Big mistake paying $15 for this game when there are so many other game for $15 or less on PSN that are miles better than this game.

    I wanted so bad to love this game... I am a huge Ninja turtles fan and grew up with the original cartoons (no, I never read the original comics though, but those weren't for kids).

    Save your $15.... or if you're a big Turtles fan, at least wait until the game goes on sale.    … Expand

    Next gen my ass. This looks like a ps2 game, map design is lazy and linear and the gameplay almost bored me to death. Seriously, i couldn't play this for two hours straight because it was just so stupid and repetitive. The kids might like this, i don't know. For me this is just another bad turtles game (there's a lot of those for sure). Something positive: The arcade mode was a bit of funNext gen my ass.

Something positive: The arcade mode was a bit of fun for a while, and it was nice that they used the classic theme song that was in the 90's turtles movie. Go watch it and don't buy this game.… Expand

    Eu Já joguei Jogos ruins mas eu Nunca vi Jogo TÃO ruim Que Eu Não consegui zerar , o Jogo te obriga a joga r com amigos pois Se Você não joga com enguias , o Jogo Simplesmente Não Te Da Pontos suficientes pra evoluir como Tartarugas , Só da pra evoluir duas ou uma e por isso elas morrem facilmente.

    Eu lembro de uma parte que eu estava com a vida baixa e eu fui procurar algum item para aumentar e ai eu simplesmente me deparei com um mapa inacabado, eu não fiz um bug eu juro, estava lá simplesmente um buraco enorme. Se for jogar NÃO COMPRE, obtenha o jogo sem pagar ou pegue emprestado com alguém e jogue com amigos também!    … Expand

    This PS3 port may be more stable than its counterparts, but that doesn’t redeem its archaic gameplay and bland visuals.
