TMNT Out of the Shadows Review | COIN-OP TV

The game has a very distinct art style that seems to be loosely (very loosely) based on the newer television series. The environments look fine, but the turtles seem to be some amalgamation of Godzilla and the Turtles of old. At first it’s a bit off-putting, but you eventually get used to it.

TMNT was a shocker not having local co-op. Almost seems criminal not to have it.

spicelicka2949d ago

Agree with this. I thought with more powerful consoles we'd have a lot more options for split-screen and such.

gangsta_red2949d ago

I think it's because the consoles are outputting a lot more in terms of graphics and whatever else is going on on-screen is the exact reason there isn't any co-op.

spicelicka2949d ago

Yea that's true, but that's not something i expected. I guess things work differently in practice than on paper.

I still think with the right optimization, and option graphical downgrades could make it work. But then again, it would require a lot of effort which developers don't want to waste time on.

gangsta_red2949d ago

True, but could you imagine the fans and review backlash and outcry if a game didn't have up to par graphics just to accommodate co-op?

Might fly with some budget titles but for something triple A, that would be a no go.

That's a shame too because I would rather have co-op in all my games. That is why CoD still gets played in my house till this day.

The fact that gears of war, pc doesn't have it, is very sad. Pc is very capable of local multi-player. See all those lovely indie games.

Fist4achin2949d ago

I feel like they are telling everyone to go and buy their own game console and their own copy of the game...

I agree, I loved this game and Ryse. Definitely too much hate for these games.

ZaWarudo2983d ago

That Batman MP sucked ass, but the campaign was awesome. It had the best writing and boss fights in the series.

AKR2983d ago

I agree with the addition of Lost World. It wasn't perfect, but neither was it a bad game. Heck, when you have games like Sonic 06' and Rise of Lyric, calling it a bad game would be an INSULT.

Segata2983d ago

Lost World is a pretty good game and some of the levels esp early on are pretty much Genesis levels in 3D with branching paths and momentum based. The articles is one of 4 people I seen online ACTUALLY understand what Sonic is. It's not speed but momentum on Genesis.

Sadly, Star Wars: Battlefront is NOT Battlefield with a Star Wars skin. If it was, the game would be much better.

I had no idea Red Steel was hated so much. That was one of the better Wii launch games IMO. Had a lot of fun playing multiplayer.

iplay1up22983d ago

I liked Red Steel too! Red Steel 2 as well. I do not care for Red Steel 2's graphics so much, but a fun game!

TXIDarkAvenger2983d ago

Wow I forgot there was a Red Steel 2! And judging from the ratings, it seems way better.

blawren42983d ago

Just think, within every trash bag, box, and everything else shootable there is money. We could all be rich!!

But seriously...Red Steel 2 was fantastic
