My kids love TMNT, and this game seems to be acceptable to their love of the franchise. I played it myself for a while to see what the gameplay was like, and while it's not anything original or genre defining, it works and has that TMNT vibe to it.

I bought this game just to see what it would be like because I remember loving the old TMNT games for the regular Nintendo system. I was very pleasantly surprised how awesome this game is. As far as being challenging, it isn't very hard, but if you are a fan of old TMNT or new TMNT, you will probably find the game play fun nonetheless as you get to do new cool moves with each of the turtles including a number of cool combo moves, and it is cool to play a TMNT game in 3D! For a regular hardcore gamer, this game may not hold up much as being a favorite game of the year or anything, but for a TMNT fan like myself, it is great to see these heroes in a half shell in a completely new light and with more playability and maneuverablility:D!!!!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) gives players the chance to relive their nostalgia for the series. Going in, the game holds a lot of promise as it is developed by Ubisoft Montreal most notablely known for their Prince of Persia series. The prospect of a POP-esque game in a TMNT world is very tantalizing. Unfortunately the game does not live up to expectations. TMNT is a third person action game that, like POP, gives players the ability of run along walls, do acrobatics, dodge traps and adds new abilities like call in your turtle brothers to pull team combos. Despite these features TMNT is no where close to the caliber POP Sands of time was. The blame can solely be put on a fact that it feels dumbed down to appeal to a very young crowd to coincide with the demographic targeted by the tie-in movie. What made POP great was (1) superb story (2) excellent game play elements (3) topnotch pacing. All these are missing from TMNT. The story is tied to the animated film and not explained as the game expects you to have seen the movie. Even if you have seen the movie it is not compelling. Despite borrowing elements from POP, the game feels too easy. There is no satisfaction from either completing environment puzzles or from the dumbed down repetitive combat that forces to you fight bland generic enemies. How can you have a TMNT game and not have hoards of boss to fight? Graphically and audibly the feels like a budget title. One can clearly tell the game was developed for the PS2 and then ported to other platforms. Even worse, the graphics and sound are that of an average PS2 game. In the end, TMNT is a budget title that should keep younger audiences mildly interested. 5.5/10 Visit my gaming forum www.gamingdump.comRead full review
While slightly lacking in the combat department, TMNT makes for a fun action platformer, with tons of unlockables and challenge maps to play through, as well as taking control of each of the four Turtles in the story mode.
