The true reason why Ninja Turtles is only 2 player....

Gamers.com: Did you think about making a four-player game, instead of just two, or did you think that perhaps that wasn't as important?

Nakamura: When we started reading scripts from the cartoon series, we realized that it wasn't like the former series, where there were always four turtles that were working together. Now each character has a much stronger personality, more of an individual. Each of them you could consider a hero that has his own episodes in the cartoon series. So we've decided to focus in that direction, which is why, in the story mode, you can select all four characters, but it will follow a particular character's role when you play through with them.

What kind of an excuse is that?:( :mad:

I agree with them. Hearing the individual story of a mutated teenaged turtle who eats pizza and talks like a surfer is much more interesting than playing a beat em up with 3 friends.

:lol:

I think one thread dedicated to your whining about the lack of multiplayer in the new TMNT games is enough.

He raises a valid point (Spike, not the guy being interviewed.) The game should focus on fun, not story. It's a TMNT game for Pete's sake, we, as gamers, don't expect high-concept melodrama for it. We do, however, expect something that will be fun, which this game should be. Just not as fun as it COULD be.

That quote says absolutely nothing about the lack of a 4-player game. It's about the single-player game and how it will be different for all four characters.

The 4-player mode has camera problems, just like the clips we've seen of the 2-player mode. So, yeah, it's not ready, might not be ready for release. Hopefully it won't distract from the gameplay.

You're grasping for straws. Please stop pressing the issue.



EDIT:

After seeing Andrew's response...

What the hell are you people complaining about? This sounds like a good idea to me -- 4 different stories, one for each character. This plus guarenteed 2-player co-op, possibly 4-player co-op (or did they rule it out completely at E3?), a versus mode... what do you want? The fricken Pope as a playable character? Please quit complaining and be happy you're getting a new TMNT game -- or try developing your own on such a short time frame...

I shed one tear for the soul of this game, now.

they should have worked on making this a new arcade title, then they'll have no excuse.


konami is so full of shit... I swear somebody needs a good whoopin.

I seem to remember ALL of the previous TMNT beat em ups on home consoles being 2 player...I know with these newer consoles 4 players is much easier to do given the 4 controller ports and all but alot of people are acting like co op limited to only 2 players is like a step backwards. It's always been like that.
