An incredibly slapdash and barren game that has absolutely nothing to offer you beyond monotonous, almost-broken fighting mechanics, tiny environments, and a bunch of lame unlockables.
-
Cheat Code CentralThe latest game is entitled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Melee and like the last two games, threatens to send the Turtles back into hibernation or wherever the hell they went last time.
-
This brings shame to the name Turtles. Even to the Turtles die hard fans this will just be a stab in your heart.

Official Xbox MagazineNot even cel-shaded reptiles can save a game cursed with tissue-thin design, weak AI, and repetitive gameplay. [June 2005, p.78]

Play MagazineIt's hard to find the fun in Mutant Melee, whether playing alone or with friends. [May 2005, p.54]
-
What gets under your skin is that most of the combos are unblockable, and once you are caught in string of moves, you must wait until the move set is over before you can block or counter attack. This can be frustrating on both A.I. and human battles.
-
While the multiplayer options are moderately enjoyable, only the youngest of gamers will find themselves with any longevity.
-
This is some of the weakest, button-mashy gameplay you'll ever experience.
