If recent news of an upcoming remake of arcade classic Turtles in Time wasn't enough to make you scream Cowabunga then, well ... congratulations, you're dead inside. For everyone else, some footage of the game has surfaced and, provided you can keep your breakfast down after the video's shaky-cam style, should give you an early taste of just what to expect.
Turtles in Time marks the second Konami oldie lined up for a makeover in as many months, following April's reveal of a new Vandal Hearts for PSN and XBLA. While some of us would have much preferred a remake of the NES originalTMNT, given that game's crushing difficulty we doubt many gamers today would have survived that particular ride aboard the Technodrome's wayback machine.
Oh man. Looks freakin' awesome. As long as it retains all the things that made the original so enjoyable in the first place, I'm sold. Maybe after the release of this one, they can start working on a remake of Hyperstone Heist? LOL.
HAHA! I remember that freakin level! With those crappy planks, and I hope they keep Rocksteady and Bebop at the end(have those guys even seen 3d yet?). Little worried about attacking in directions, but the tiny energy spot for leonardo and all that space to the right tells me that 4 players seems like a sure thing! I mean, the SNES was 2...but wasn't the arcade version 4?
Man, an additional reference to the old TMNT NES game -- brings back bad memories, one involving Donatello and some sort of zipline. I'm pretty sure that's the first game that made me cry.
