A PS5 game? How rare! But yes, this game was on my Switch wishlist for a while waiting for a decent sale, but then it recently appeared on PS++++++ as a free rental so I played it there instead. It felt wrong, somehow, even though it’s on the same TV the Switch version would have been played on. Went through the game with my daughter. I was Mikey, she was Don, and it was great. It’s a proper sequel to …
Wow. It’s been a while since I’ve completed an Xbox 360 game. In fact, bar the odd bit of Minecraft, I’ve barely touched it in ages. Today my daughter wanted to play a Turtles game, so I picked this. It’s the original arcade game from 1989, although I did complete it almost eight years ago. Blimey. Was the 360 even around that long ago? This time was in co-op, obviously, and I found it easier than I remember. Sure, a billion …
I powered up my 360 for the first time in what seems like forever just to download and play this yesterday. I didn’t play for very long, but then today I completed it. Already. Not that I really expected any less, though. I mean, it’s a pretty short game. I just didn’t expect it to be quite so easy, that’s all. Inly the final boss was any sort of challenge, and even he wasn’t too difficult. But it looks amazing, …
It seems I only had a few more levels left to do, and a couple of them were quite short. The final one, however… took ages. Like, almost an hour. The reason? The SuckySuck(TM) bit at the end. Most of the bosses I’d fought previously all returned, one after another. Of course, the first time you come across them, they either run away after a bit, or you do. Not at the end though. The sticking point was General Mono. …
Another two levels out of the way this evening. I quite like the graphical style of the Night Watcher levels – they’re all in black and white, with just some red bits and slight colouring on the baddies. It looks great! I had a look at the achievements list too, and I wonder why it says I haven’t collected my “first coin” yet? I’ve picked up hundreds of them.
You know, this is actually quite good fun. It alternates between 3D platforming, fighting, and some almost-2D platforming. Completed another two levels today, another with Leonardo in the jungle, and then one back in the city (Manhattan, isn’t it?) with all the toitles available to cycle through in some sort of tag-team action. Yeah, there are issues (some with the camera, some with the controls), but it’s not a bad game at all.
This arrived today. I wasn’t really expecting much, but I put it on anyway. Four levels later (one for each turtle), and I’m mildly impressed. It looks OK, the speed and moves are pretty swish (even if there’s a lot of Prince of Persia theft), but there’s something niggly about it that makes me want to hate it. Yeah, so there’s a few camera issues, and sometimes you do moves inadvertently, (like run along a wall instead of up it), …
