    As a fanboy of the older beat em ups of the Turtles I really hate to write this. In a way i am disappointed in this game. It feels more like a party game then a proper beat em up.

    Almost in every screen the perspective of the backdrops are just so wrong or objects are way too big, like the cars for example. Completing all challenges is just too easy. The whole party just spamming taunt to be able to spam your Super Attack is funny at first but it actually ruins the game for its difficulty and other mechanics.    … Expand

    Понятия не имею, как у этого псевдо настальгичечкого псевдо битемап высера оценка от игроков в таком диапазоне стоит, я в ахуе друзья. Нечитаемые враги, хуево срабатываемые кнопки прыжка во время боя и хуево работающее вообще всё в этой "игре" никого видимо не смущает.

    I saw the excitement and reviews about this game and was so into the idea. Trailers and gameplay looked great, but I kinda feel lied to. Talk about nostalgia entirely carrying the weight. That isn't to say this game is bad, it's okay, but seriously this is the kind of game that would have been released on the Xbox 360 Live Arcade for $15. Wait... oh, that actually kinda did happen.I saw the excitement and reviews about this game and was so into the idea. Trailers and gameplay looked great, but I kinda feel lied to.

    People were hyping this way too much. They kept saying "oh there's so many challenges and collectibles and leveling up your character" but none of those add up to anything. You get points going through the game which unlocks more health or moves but it doesn't add anything to the game really. Leveling up doesn't do much. The challenges are just things like don't get hit or don't fall in a pit. There are no secrets really and Casey Jones was already shown as an unlockable character so... online play is the only thing left after you beat this.

    You'll finish this game in a couple hours. The replayability is minimal. How do I write a review here, there's so little? You'll get into it, see the throwback stuff, see some jokes and cheesy lines, you'll be hooked to keep playing because level 1 feels so classic. You see the stuff from the cartoon, pokes at old jokes and classic 90s kids things. Then you'll start getting annoyed by the gameplay a few levels in. You aren't pumping in quarters but some of the enemies and bosses are crafted to cough up quarters. The music in some levels just doesn't match the game. Some of the music is great but like TMNT 2 it feels like a desperate cash-in that ignores what made it so good in the first place. It just feels off. The game is made for multiplayer but I didn't find any type of play to be all that fun.

    First time through I got all but 2 of the collectibles and most of the challenges. I started with Donny, balanced and simple but a weird style to play with less reach than expected. After finish I played through a level with each character and had no interest in playing again. Raphael is by far the worst to play with. Casey Jones plays like a wrestler and is too much of a "one joke" character. Leo, Mikey, Splinter, and April are the typical beat-em-up characters.

    The voice overs are... well. I'm not sure if it's just that these guys are all older or if they were recording these with cell phones on an airplane. They sound wrong and distorted. None of them quite sound like their core character. I felt it was a little lazy they didn't voice the cut scenes most of the time except for one line quips. Just text on a screen. The story is basically a childish mix of classic 90s cartoon tropes. The endings slightly change depending on who you play as, again just another nostalgia nod to the cartoon.

    The taunts are annoying. If you play online half the time everyone is just doing this. You hear them a lot. One taunt over and over. The specials aren't very unique to the character. The jokes and nostalgia are fun the first time around but the second time through these just seem like old pizza found under the couch. Once those wear off the game seems very empty.

    Now, I'm sad and I wish I bought a pizza instead.    … Expand

    Picchiaduro a scorrimento old style ben fatto, che riprendere le atmosfere e le meccaniche dei vecchi classici.

    In this brand-new adventure, you step into the shoes of Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael or Michelangelo, sensei Splinter or reporter April O'Neil and must save the world from the main villain Shredder. You do this entirely in the style of the beat 'em ups of yesteryear. It is a brawling game with wonderfully pixelated retro graphics and a pumping soundtrack, in which just about all the locations, characters and enemies of the past pass by in rapid succession.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge is a love letter to beat'em up fans, with innovations that deepen the genre and make it the perfect excuse to return to it.

    A must-play for any brawler fan, this levels up retro fun to new chaotic heights. With lots of love for ’80s TMNT, it’s a feast for the eyes and for the fingers. [Issue#17, p.72]
