New TMNT Game Is 360 Timed Exclusive

Kotaku: Yay! More timed exclusives! Thanks, Microsoft. The latest title to piss off half the gaming world with a staggered release is one of the new Ninja Turtles games. Well, it'll be out on Xbox Live Arcade on July 22. As for the PlayStation Network, all Ubisoft will say is that it'll be out "later this year".

[qface64]

every time i see the word timed i seriously think so?
timed exclusives are dumb if you ask me

also is this game the original remade or something?
or is it NEW NEW

[MattyF]

It's identical to the arcade and SNES version. Small changes have been made. Rocksteady is gone and replaced with the wolf and turtle from the Secret of the Ooze movie.

It's just TMNT: Turtles in Time remake.

[GayASSAdmins]

Its a TMNT in time remake.

[qface64]

aww that game was a blast playing it with friends
but looking at that screen i don't like the way it looks
i kinda liked the old look better

[SaberEdge]

Sounds like it's Ubisoft's doing, not Microsoft's. So why are they blaming Microsoft?

[phosphor112]

Why not do a remake of the Arcade version? That one was awesome.

EDIT: Maybe I'm being too harsh on Turtles in Time. It wasn't THAT bad..but I just didn't like it. I just honestly didn't like the settings they had. Prehistoric time, the "battle star" or w/e...meh Idk, might be a good remake.

[RememberThe357]

Was it the Genesis? Wow, I loved this game when I was a kid.

lol I remember a game like this, but you could brake bottles on guys and use pipes and things like that. Can someone with a better memory remember what game that was?

@phosphor112: This one sucked? Am I thinking of the right game?

[AKNAA]

oh yeah, that makes perfect sense... Develop the game as a multiplat and instead of giving it a simultaneous release, which of course would be the smarter route, they decide to piss the ps3 owners off (causing them potential profit loss), by releasing the ps3 version afterwards...
Your right! ms definitely has nothing to do with this.****Rolls eyes*** duh...

[HDgamer]

thats like saying Sony has nothing to do with EU's ghostbuster time exclusivity.

[Rainstorm81]

Im looking forward to getting this, I loved turtles in time on SNES. I normally dont care to buy games older than ps1 but with Konami remaking it. I cant wait.

Looks like ill be waiting a little longer......Thanks MS

@ rememberthe357

Either Final Fight or Streets of Rage is what you're thinking of.

[Syronicus]

I can't believe that somebody would post this. Must not read what they post 'cause I have never heard of a company willing to create two versions of the game then release one as a timed exclusive without any kind of compensation.

I have to say, this game will be fun but with all the great new games coming out for all three systems, I find it hard to believe I will have time enough to play this one at all.

[callahan09]

Until just now I was under the impression that this was a full-on exclusive for XBLA. So as I see it, this is the first confirmation that it's even coming to PSN. If I'm incorrect, can somebody provide a link confirming a PSN version prior to today?

[Lifendz]

in the mean-time.

[Gothdom]

it's a stupid decision to make it timed exclusive, but I got stuff to play in the meantime. I think it's the first time that the PSN version is actually confirmed though, I'm not sure.

This will be a day one buy on my PS3 though.

[JokesOnYou]

OK, micro "paid" Ubisoft for a remake "timed exclusive" of a TMNT game on XBLA, yeah riiight.

We've seen this countless times they just chose to do one before the other and XBLA seems to be the more attractive platform for some devs to get specific games on first, then the ps3 later, lmfao but of course micro always had to have something to do with a dev choosing 360 over ps3. lol

JOY

[locos85]

I was going to get this on my 360 but I won't have to anymore. The only game i'm looking forward to on 360 is Mass Effect 2.

[Marceles]

"Too bad TMNT In Time was the worst one ever"

Seriously...epic fail on that comment.

[menoyou]

thank heavens, i want this game!

[KKanjiAnkh]

It was Streets of Rage

I personally always wanted to see Battletoads N Ninja Turtles the game.

[DNAgent]

And the xbots thought it was exclusive forever. It doesn't matter though cause I won't buy this garbage (especially since the impressions for it have been horrible so far with it being easy plus it's the arcade version). It doesn't have the Technodrome level and it doesn't have the Rat King plus instead of arcade music they use the SNES music. It's going to flop and you're better off just playing the original (preferably SNES as it has more features and even though the music on SNES isn't as good as the arcade, the SNES is still the better version).

[Mr Face Creamer]

Can you please point me to any mention of this game? This is the first time I have heard of this game in my life.

It's a ****cking remake of a sh1t game $ony slave... Get over yourself. Nobody thought this was a timed exclusive because NOBODY EVEN KNOWS THIS EXISTS!

If this was exclusive to the PS3 you would have also posted a lame anti-360 comment to defend they your trashstation 3.

[Stubacca]

The Xbots have a timed exclusive. Good for you. Now go and ask your mum for pocket money so you can go get it.

[WildArmed]

lol yeah! I'd totally go buy a 360 for TMNT.
/end sarcasm

[belal]

il just wait untill it comes to my ps3, simple as that:)

[Rockstar]

To the phantom disagreer:

I don't even own an xbox and I don't even know what the hell MAME is?

OR

Gonna go fire up my modded toaster with custom flame decals on it and save myself time and money?

[Senden]

WOOHOO we 360 owners have a crappy 3/10 game a timed exclusive /careface But seriously, everyone knows this game is going to be crappy, tv show ports always are.

[Troll-Killer]

...TMNT was a comic book first. :p

[hatchimatchi]

you must not have played turtles in time on the snes or arcade. Turtles in time is hands down one of the best beat em ups ever. I'll definitely be buying this on my ps3 once it gets released.

[ButterToast]

Turtles in time was the best TMNT game released IMO, I don't know where you get off thinking it was terrible.

[MajesticBeast]

dont care have the original awesomeness wasnt impressed with this ubi fails where capcom prevails rearmed b!tches.

[Troll-Killer]

GRIN did Bionic Commando: Rearmed....NOT Capcom..., and they've pretty much SUCKED at everything else they've touched: Bionic Commando (the new 3D game), Wanted, and Terminator: Salvation. :o

[Nelson M]

And the BoTs get TMNT

Haaa
Hah

[-MD-]

Well good thing TMNT is a good game then.

Ghosbusters is a lame movie spin off of a lame movie from 30 years ago? How awesome does that sound?

[Nelson M]

A MurderDoll Loving Emo Goth
Hows your Mood today
Dark Purple Eyeliner or Black ?

Oh an a lot Better than havin a game with Four Pizza Loving Slimey Ass Turtles who are not in the Same League as the Whole Ghostbuster Franchise !
Movie or VideoGames

[fafoon]

Ghostbusters will sell Better on Both Consoles when its available along with TMNT on both the PS3 and Xbox

[Mr Face Creamer]

I would love to see you with an IQ test result, Nelson M.

[Nelson M]

Mrs Face Creamer

[The Stuttttterer]

Sure is a H H Ho Ho Homo !!!

[-MD-]

1. It's Murderdolls (with an s and no capital D)
2. Emo and Goth are completely different things and I am neither of them
3. My mood today is pretty good actually me and my brother just got pretty drunk and ate at a sweet restaurant I'm actually about to pass out soon after this.
4. I wasn't aware they made eyeliner in purple I thought it was exclusively black it's obvious you know something I don't

Epic fail on the entire post big fella go watch your bad cartoon.

[Mr Face Creamer]

New victims for my cream whopping are always welcome. Droids and slaves seem to love that sh1t.

You've been creamed many times Nelson, step aside and make room for Mr. Slutttttterer below you.

Enjoy Uncharted 2 lol! That's probably the last exclusive coming out this year for the TRASHSTATION®3. At least you can still watch Terminator Salvation on Blu-Ray! LOL!

[Jeff257]

Im glad this is timed but it still blows chunks that they are going this route. I bet the PS3 version is done and ready to be released but because of what ever BS reason (probably some money involved) they wont give it to everyone at once. This will tick off some people who would have bought it but now may not based on this news. Allthough if they are holding on to this only to add more content to it at a later date for PSN then others may jump on buying it.

[36T]

You're probably right. It will tick some people off. I don't think a timed exclusive will have any impact on this game whatsoever. If owners of only a PS3 want this game, they will wait a couple of months for it.

If Microsoft paid any amount of money to have this a timed exclusive in their favor, their pretty stupid. Who knows, maybe the reason for this game being a timed exclusive is because the PS3 version will take more time to finish.

Should the reviews give a good score, i'll pick it up on XBL, only if/when i have time between games.

[ButterToast]

I don't think it really matters when it comes out so long as it is coming to the PSN. I was really jealous when they announced it for the 360 and not the PSN, but I'm better now :)

[2FootYard]

Nelson M wouldn't even be able to finish an IQ test. He would get stumped on the third question then throw a temper tantrum.

[Nelson M]

If i may ask
Mr Ghost Masterbater

"Why is the PSN still a joke compared to Xbox Live"

(Multi answer because your brain is lacking)

A. Because Sony is bad
B. Because Sony doesn't care
C. Because Sony doesn't care
D. Because Sony hates their fans

[Gamer_89]

because we gone get to best version and by the way this game is garbage

[Dante43]

Murderdolls , you some kind of moron? PSN is not crap, and Sony does care, it just took they some time. That is all.

[-MD-]

"Murderdolls, you some kind of moron?"
"it just took they some time"

irony...

[MajesticBeast]

capcom gave the orders for the rearmed game and bionic commando isnt bad its on par with games like darksector in no way is it bad.

[360usetobegood]

Been playing it on my PSP for awhile..

Cool game but why they decided to buy this is beyond me.. Good luck m$ you seem to have gone retarded. At least you still have your pawns 59.99... Cha Ching!

PSN is better than Live EASILY. Dont care if you believe me or not Ive seen and used both.

[likedamaster]

LOL. Poor ps3 fanboys.

[You Already Know]

I think I'm going to start boycotting all "timed exclusive" games....even if they are timed exclusive in my favor....

if a game is multi-platform....then it should release on all systems at once...

I mean seriously....it's not even a new game....why all the effort?

[maxcer]

they are probably going to do the PSN version after the XBLA one is finished. i don't remember the dev saying anything about doing simultaneous versions. you can't release a game that doesn't exist

[J@D]

timed exclusive huh? Cool, I guess.

[pwnsause]

well at least they confirmed the PS3 version.

[Christopher]

Everyone should get a chance to play TMNT, so it's great that this is coming to both consoles. I'm fairly certain people can find something to do on their PS3 until this is released.

[XDF]

Cool..This game, Samurai Showdown 3D, MVC2, Load Runner, Bionic Commando rearmed, Virtua On, Outrun Arcade, Shadow COmplex, Secret of Monkey Island remake, and Perfect Dark 1080P rounds of a very solid XBLA 2009 lineup.

[Dannagar]

Looks fantastic. I can't wait to own it.

[Dannagar]

This is actually good news for Playstation 3 owners. It was previously only announced for XBLA... so at least they can look forward to it in the future.

[swinesucker]

I sit that hard to make a decent 1080p turtles game.

This looks like complete pooh.

[MetalProxy]

I want this game really bad. But I dont want to get it for my threesixzero cuz I would have to pay to play with others online...sigh

[Redgehammer]

I will never understand someone's reluctance to spending 4.1658333333333333333333333333 333 a month for an online service. I will not deny that free is good, but 4.1658333333333333333333333333 333 a month is really inexpensive.

[Enigma_2099]

Ciiiiiiirclle of Liiiiiiiiiiiiife!

[smeg0rz]

Look at it being used with it

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[poopface1]

At least everyone can play the game. Im sure theat the people saying this game sucks are pretty young.

For all you haters: Lets just say that when many of us were your age, this is one of the games we were playing. I still have the snes game but would still like to play this online with my friends who also loved this game when they were younger.

and even 15 or more years later and this original is still fun to play.

[OGharryjoysticks]

For a little while there, maybe a couple of weeks before Haze was released, I thought Ubisoft was done bending over to Micrsoft. But it looks like all is right with the world again. Ubisoft has it's dirty bed partner back and plans to stay soft. Sweaty late nights of unprotected controller handling with Naruto, the Turtles, and Splinter Cell will do that to a Ubisoft executive I guess.

[Knightofelemia]

The classic game looks better

[Honor_in_Armor]

XBLA already has two tmnt games of its own so psn can take whatever it can get.
