out of the shadows and into the trash can
So what do you do?
You love a license so you buy the game? But the game looks like/is crap. So you buy crap? Or do you SEND A MESSAGE!! that crap won't be tolerated. Or does that send the message that the license is worthless?
Just play TMNT on NES half nekkid in the dark and laugh at the new stuff that can't be as cool as the old stuff.
I want to get it on XBLA :(
Rev3games did a preview playthrough, I think it actually looks pretty good:

That video preview screen...
"Not the momma!"
Heh yeah that is pretty funny, I guess my only gripe so far is that the combat seems a little too slow just judging from the campaign video.
It looks a lot better than I thought it was going to! Combat looks much deeper than just a straight button masher.
Out now, get your download on.
Well ok then! That release came out of nowhere.
Some damning impressions.

This is coming from probably the biggest TMNT fan on the board. I'd get it no matter what, but I never put much faith into this.
Voice acting is trash.
Artwork looks like MS Paint.
Graphics are terrible.
I've fallen through the level a half dozen times.
The camera loves giving me a giant black screen.
Gameplay is wonky.

Edit: OT, I cannot recommend this to any tmnt fan. It's just not good. Great opportunity wasted. Controls awful, camera is surreal and needs handholding. The list goes on...
All I did so far is set up the options. The supported resolutions, without the inevitable editing of an .ini file, are 640x480, something here I forget, 1280x960, and 1920x1080, so they're not even 16:10 for PC monitors, and when I picked 1280x960 for my 1600x1050 native monitor, it didn't upscale. It just put black borders around the image. There are no options for AA, V-sync, etc. so it's the laziest of console ports in terms of options.
I should know better than to buy anything that hasn't been reviewed by the time it's released. I'll try the actual game once my daughter gets home from school.
edit: I left out that it plays the original movie's T-U-R-T-L-E power song on a short loop at the title screen.
