Shredder's Revenge may not have been anything "new," but it was the best iteration ever of the classic beat 'em up format Turtles game. I was very happy with it. Splintered Fate is about on the par with it for me. Both are really incredible.
@@smellywaffels1967 it’s better than Hades to me. TMNT universe is way more awesome than Hell, lol, and multiplayer makes this miles better for replay value with my sons.
Shredders revenge and its dlc are addicting, seriously, if you take time to learn the little hidden mechanics, its the deepest beat em up system this side of Punisher. Its really the best beat em up game ever for turtles and non turtle fans alike.
@@ericg1100 Nah. I've played over 100 different Beat 'Em Ups in my day. Shredder's Revenge is fantastic, and I even think it's one of the Top 3 brawlers of all time, but the core gameplay mechanics are not very deep. It's quite simplistic when you compare it to stuff like Guardian Heroes, SoR4, Jitsu Squad, River City Girls, and others. Thankfully, it doesn't need deep mechanics to be incredibly fun.
I’d love a TMNT game in the style of an open world, Arkham Asylum/City type game. I love that style of combat in those games and I think TMNT would lend well to that style of game play. Even more so to the tandem combat like when you fought with Catwoman or Nightwing so you could pick which brother you want to be and fight along the brothers.
@@TomVCunningham respectfully, not really. I can’t stand the Ronin story line for TMNT. The story itself is a good one on its own but doesn’t make sense for the TMNT universe. Let’s take everything that makes TMNT great, the brothers….splinter…and take all that away. I want a game with all the characters, not one.
Uhm... before saying that I suggest you look at Gotham Knights. It's the closest to TMNT in Batman Arkham games you'll ever see for now until it actually happens.
You are a bad ass for bringing up dat masterpiece, I still havent gotten round to completing XMEN Legends 2. My God as a comic diehard, I absolutely love those two games, Personally think they are da best XMEN games ever outside of XMEN children of da atom game. Now dat game is just Gold for us comic nerds.Special mention Marvel vs capcom 2 and 3 plus for da hell of it, Marvel Superheros game by capcom
I was watching this video with stern eyes, hanging onto every word, I gotta tell ya this 45 yr old man was silently smiling da whole time with joy 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Just found the channel. Liked and subbed. Excellent quality. Been a gaming nerd my whole life but hid it behind sports and trying to "be cool" Now that im older, i just dont care hahah video games is the one thing ive truly enjoyed since childhood and never grew out of it or it never got old. 36 now and making my first gaming man cave. And im proud hahah Keep up the content!
I am a lifelong TMNT fan, I was there on day one and have been around for every iteration throughout the years. My favorite version to date is the 2012 series. It was fantastic.
It’s cool that you’re a fan of the IDW comics because the is kind of set in that universe character designs by Mateus Santolouco and the plot is written by Tom Waltz
I'm glad you also reviewed the game on the Switch as I needed to know the performance with the game on that system and it's lookin like a solid game on that system.
I grew up watching the original TMNT and was not a fan of the Mutant mayhem movie. The 2012 series brought me back to enjoying the turtles again though. Good series.
@@silkk2117 rise had great Animation but with how comedy heavy in the first season with 11min didn't give the best first impressions and was a turn off
I’ve only played it for a couple of days now but I am absolutely loving it! I like all of the turtle’s except for Leo tbh, but that’s already so much variety and the interactions/dialogue throughout the whole game is just so great if you’re a turtles fan. Very surprising little gem we’ve got here
Love this game been playing nonstop. Meteor shower is busted, all the shuriken powers are also busted, along with the stacks of ooze and flame. Raph can melt health bars with the tool, weapon skill combo as with the other characters. Donnys rage is insane, and the multi hits with Mikey are crazy. Great review!
Just finished playing it for an hour on my Switch. Did not like it on my iPhone BUT LOVE IT on my Switch ❤️🧡💙💜🐢🐀 So good. Easily a 9 out of 10 so far. A lot of tmnt love went into this one.
The way the game shows you how the many different in-game currencies are earned on a single screen is fantastic! More games need to do this (maybe behind a spoilers tag)
The apple arcade version had bugs which caused you to lose all progress cloud save be damned... the bugs pile up once you start doing runs through portals
At least this is a new "modern" TMNT game and not another one set in the 1987 series. Both Ninja Turtles and Sonic still have a nostalgia issue where brand wise, everything is centered around the original iterations instead of focusing on the current ones. We long to see things actually move forward and not rely on too much nostalgia. It's good to get retro games every now and then when a certain franchise has been dormant or left on hiatus for awhile. That was Sonic Mania, as before that game, we haven't had any good Sonic content for a while. It was just Sonic Boom. The same I think I could also say the same for TMNT Shredder's Revenge, as the last true Ninja Turtles video game to come out that wasn't a crossover dlc pack with DC was the 2016 game Mutants In Manhattan. And personally, that was my first ever experience with playing a Ninja Turtles game that I actually loved. Still wished we got new TMNT stuff that doesn't fully rely on the nostalgia of the 80s cartoon. Bring back the 2003 show in a new game please!!!
I love Hades, but this game is up there for me. Of course because I'm biased to the TMNT theme. I thought the story and interactions also helped motivate you to keep pressing especially early on.
I haven't stopped playing this since it came out on the switch. Great roguelite that is going to blow up once it hits PC. So much depth including legendaries that are really hard to get but so amazing once you do.
Awesome review (you just got a new sub)! I can't wait for this to drop on Steam and I really hope they make a sequel someday built from the ground up graphics wise for consoles and PC. Oh, and I totally agree about Shredder's Revenge.
Looks cool, I’ll probably get it. I got SR and the CCollection. Wish the art had different emotional states so Mikey isn’t smiling like a goofball while doubting his ability as a ninja, for example. But ah well. I’m glad we made it out of the TMNT drought of the late oughts to twenty teens.
The 2012 show is really great. Watched it with my kids, i was a fan of the 80s cartoon - and the homage, the love, the references in the 2012 show were clear. Then they had the audacity to go multiverse and cross over into the 80s show. Robert Paulson who voiced raph in the 80s does the 2012 Donnie, so when 80s raph meets 2012 donnie... Yeah there's classic winks and nods. Got a bit crap when they went to space.
@ThisExists2 sir.....what even does your comment mean???? And why would it make sense that I would go against the good ones??????....but anyway name one era of turtles that made a bigger impact than the classic and 1990's movie...... There are some Versions of the turtles people would not even recognize if you just showed a picture...But as soon as you see the classic or the nineteen nineties , you know exactly what version of turtles those are...
Just saw the demo for this today and gave it a try. I love the art style for the still frames, and that's about all I got out of it. The combat feels like I'm swinging straight through enemies and is generally unsatisfying, the voice acting is serviceable but I don't particularly find myself wanting to listen to it, and all the dialogue about "father" feels...I don't know, doesn't fit the tone of the rest of its presentation and isn't fun to listen to. Anyway, I kept playing but was constantly interrupted with random powerups and effects on the screen with a very messy ui, and that's when it hit me with the ultimate game ruiner for me....roguelite. I'd enjoy a beat em up game in the style of the 2d images, with a slower and more methodical and brutal gameplay style which might even fit with the more serious tone they're trying to play at. Thanks for covering this game, I had to search for info about it after my experience and get a feel for the general consensus, and I guess it's just not really for me which is okay.
I had already pre-ordered it and I am enjoying it. But I do wish the characters that you meet in runs would go back to the layer to talk to and see it fill up more. Shreddeds revenge is a love letter to the fans and the amount of charters and content with the dlc still puts it at #1 for me but this is a close #2
Haven’t got it yet, but I freakin will.. tried it on Apple Arcade, felt all the feels you go over. It was an incredible effort. But it was so good I couldn’t help but just wish it would be on a console… Shell yes..
Picked this up day of release and having a blast, really impressed with the full voice acting and variety of dialogue, gameplay is a lot of fun, I haven’t even played with the other turtles yet, just Leo
37 year old casual gamer who plays mostly AA games chiming in... Yo I am absolutely loving this game. I been playing Hades since day one and just finally beat 32 heat 😂😂 (I'm not that great of a gamer) and this is such great homage to both Turtles and Hades. It's hard. I can't wait for some of my friends to finally play with me, looks like it's so much fun with more people.
This game is a lot of fun. I had to connect my controller to play on my phone because the touch screen is not it for this style. I welcome the Switch version but maybe they should have left this one at $10!!!
Sweet X2 Frickin Hades is my favourite game ever with dead cells ,tied for first place, and I'm also not big on the TMNT mutant mayhem deal, and I actually like Seth Rogen quite a lot. Anyway , new fan right here bud. Cool game too
Roguelike is the future for most retro genres, especially beat 'em ups, considering how repetitive they are by nature. I'm still not a fan. Shredder's Revenge isn't just a send-off to old TMNT games, it's stylistically pretty and gameplay is engaging. There are so many ways I can say that beautiful sprite art beats luscious and dense 3D design. Not because one is objectively better than the other, but it's a preference and I can appreciate the former more easily than the latter. Then there's other stuff like music, sound design, themes and whatever else I'm missing. That game has it all. Roguelike OTOH while I know has its fans was always a hard sell for me. I didn't like the idea of starting over from the beginning to pick up a different combination of power-ups. I prefer keeping and perfecting new powers when I get them. At least beat 'em ups now have them as an option vs only RPG elements like level up and new moves to increase gameplay variety... or go the outdated approach and be slammed for being boring.
Anybody find any of the secret move combos yet? I havent and ive been trying. Also trying to lean hard into dark with Leo but haven't done enough to change anything yet unless im wrong and thats not the way
Good game and good review. To post my personal flaws with the game, the graphics are blurry which is a Switch problem in general, the gameplay while good is a little too slow, the hits you take don't have much impact so sometimes you're losing health and don't even know it and depending on which version of a boss you fight they can be really easy or really cheap. A solid game but Shredder's Revenge is still a lot better.
We have been spoiled with TMNT games since shredders revenge/cowabunga collection came out in 2022 summer time!!! It reminds me of the nes/snes/sega era where you would get a sequel yesr after year and now were getting so many tmnt games all with thei own identy!!!
Man, this game is kind of f'ing hard!! I like the challenge, but there are moments when the AOE damage that some enemies do is WAY overpowered. I play solo, and I'm having some real issues finishing gauntlet challenges. I really wish there was an lobby system for multi-player.
This is fantastic but I'm sorry sir a top down beat em up will always be simpler mechanically than a side scrolling beat em up. Shredders revenge/turtles in time will always be better... Plus rogue like just makes other genres worse. Great game though and very creative
Doesnt really get the hades part right. That is just a bad comparison other than the camera angles. It appears to have the worst part of meta progress. Again, Ill get it on pc for sure.
This is one of the best dungeon crawler games I've ever played i hate using the term 'roguelike' i instead use the term randomly generated levels. It's actually better for both genres. This ain't AT ALL LIKE HADES, because it's far different.
I was under the impression games like this and Hades aren't Rogue-like but rather Rogue-lite as their is past run attribute building etc. True rogue-like are one run and done and don't build on past playthroughs etc. Am I bonkers?
You are correct, but most people don't know that or just slip up what they said. "Rogue-like" is just the one most people hear so they use it for both genres, but yes, you are 100% correct. Also its called "rogue"-like because the genre is based on an old game called 'rogue' that did the permadeath system with no permaupgrades, thus "rogue-like" is game like rogue lol

I love it more when the turtles look similar. Donny isn't a total nerdy wimp here, he's still mad jacked. That's TMNT for me.
Yes that's annoying when they make him skinny. They should be all equally jacked. but I love when they have different colors
Donatello was the turtle that killed Shredder in the mirage comics, he basically hit him and he fell to his death, he's definitely not a wimp
The new TMNT game Shellshocked me 👍👍😎😎😂😂
I want either a new X-Men game or a fantastic four game like this

Was the 2003 TMNT theme song playing in anybody else's head, or was it just me?
1,2,3,4, 1,2,3,4 teenage mutant ninja turtles (turtles, turtles, turtles)
I only know the old one but now it’s in my head 😂
That theme song is always in my head.
Appreciate the sincere review. It feels like everyone else kinda tossed this game aside because it wasn’t Hades
TMNT 2012 and 2003 are the best turtle media in my opinion. It’s hard for me to pick which one is best. I really hope you watch it soon.
At first look, it appears to be a modernized XMen Legends style gameplay vibes...that could be pretty cool. I'll stay for the ride

There's no better version of TMNT than the IDW comic version. That is peak TMNT.
Agreed the comics always had the best version of the TMNT.

This might be too much but I’m hoping for a Jennika, Slash, Lita and Venus dlc, specifically the idw versions of Slash and Venus
I was hesitant, im convinced 🤙🤙
the 2012 TMNT has incredible voice actors!!! Rob Pulson is Donnie!?!?! How much more classic of a voice can you get?
Was it a shell of a time?
Heros in a hard shell man....I love these games man they are just fun to play

Thanks for the review. I love hades & ninja turtles. Lol had no idea a new TMNT game was out.

Kind of sucks that the tmnt game i actually want to play is inaccessible to me because i dont have that platform 😕
I like the format, but why elemental attacks instead of more advanced ninja moves? Characters cannot even jump
@Retro Rebound I love your hair it looks bad ass asf brother. Totally suits you.
What was the TMNT on ps3, it was really short, it was 3rd person but you could bounce between turtles and do combos. It was actually fantastic.
Mutants in Manhattan
Is there a physical release coming for this one ?
We have been spoiled with TMNT games since shredders revenge/cowabunga collection came out in 2022 summer time!!! It reminds me of the nes/snes/sega era where you would get a sequel yesr after year and now were getting so many tmnt games all with thei own identy!!!
And forgot to mention we just had the raw thrills arcade game from 2017 finally ported!!!!
I'm interested I'll pick it up next time I get paid
I want a physical copy tho... Coulda used a best buy 20 off coupon and got it for 20!
They should get the voice actors from the first movie ai Corey Feldman etc for a new project."I don't think these guys are lumberjacks. "
Man, this game is kind of f'ing hard!! I like the challenge, but there are moments when the AOE damage that some enemies do is WAY overpowered. I play solo, and I'm having some real issues finishing gauntlet challenges. I really wish there was an lobby system for multi-player.
god i love hades. i'm going to have to buy this asap
Dude you need to watch the 2012 TMNT, probably my favorite in the series
This is fantastic but I'm sorry sir a top down beat em up will always be simpler mechanically than a side scrolling beat em up. Shredders revenge/turtles in time will always be better... Plus rogue like just makes other genres worse. Great game though and very creative
Game looks fun and I will get it. Shredder's revenge is on point.
Doesnt really get the hades part right. That is just a bad comparison other than the camera angles. It appears to have the worst part of meta progress. Again, Ill get it on pc for sure.
This is one of the best dungeon crawler games I've ever played i hate using the term 'roguelike' i instead use the term randomly generated levels. It's actually better for both genres. This ain't AT ALL LIKE HADES, because it's far different.
Imagine if TMNT does a crossover with Hades.
Release a physical copy please. Call Limited Run Games.😁
I was under the impression games like this and Hades aren't Rogue-like but rather Rogue-lite as their is past run attribute building etc. True rogue-like are one run and done and don't build on past playthroughs etc. Am I bonkers?
You are correct, but most people don't know that or just slip up what they said. "Rogue-like" is just the one most people hear so they use it for both genres, but yes, you are 100% correct. Also its called "rogue"-like because the genre is based on an old game called 'rogue' that did the permadeath system with no permaupgrades, thus "rogue-like" is game like rogue lol
Anyone else saying to yourself, “Where is the physical copy of this title?”?
