A Review For The Ages: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled
Yup, corny review title, but it's late, and I wanted to write a review for the game after just playing it. Turtles in Time Re-Shelled I describe as combat fun. Just a simple brawler. I liked the visual presentation being widescreen but the turtles did look pixelated on my tv around their edges. The music does not offer variety, and there is no reference to the old Ninja Turtles theme song, as seen in the trailer.
During combat, I found the Y button kick attack to be a bit overpowering. I only played on Normal so far, but I certainly survived more than I should have by just mashing the Y button when life was critical.
I'm playing co-op tomorrow, but I anticipate the game to not change much, so I think I can still review the game even though I haven't played co-op yet.
Raphael was my first choice, and he was equal to the task. The other turtles will probably be the same.
Final verdict is that it was a good purchase at the 800 points level. $10 for a game that I played in the arcades is a good investment for me. I wouldn't have purchased the game if it was higher than 800, so I like the pricing here. I give the game 3 1/2 stars, because it brings back good memories, and the certain fun factor still remains. I recommend spending $10 and purchasing the game if you're a fan of the turtles franchise. I don't think the game will disappoint you.
