What Gamespot Users have to say about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

  • Rating:2.7

    Good: It's really cool how you can switch between characters at any time. Bad: level design, lag, difficulty

    Take one of the most frustrating games you have ever played and multiply that frustration by about 10....that's how frustrating you will feel playing this game. The difficulty of this game is the same as trying to keep ... Read Full Review

    Not the best Turtles game but if you want a game that's probably in everyone's "Top 5 Toughest Games" list...h

    This was the Turtle's first entry into the console game industry and it wasn't the best effort but it wasn't the worst either. The game lets you play as any of the 4 Turtles and you can switch between them at any point i... Read Full Review

    Pretty... good?

    Honestly, I don't know what to say, but if you're just going to write me off as a jackass who hates the game, at least scroll to the bottom. I remember playing my brother's copy of this game when I was young, and I reme... Read Full Review

    brings back the old days when you had to work to beat a game

    this game seems harder than it was 15 years ago but it is still fun. It can get a bit frustrating and certainly isn't a 10. But 2.7 is a bit harsh. It's a classic. Don't believe me, watch The Wizard. All in all the ... Read Full Review

    A complete waste of time that isn't worth the trouble.

    This game came out right on the high point of the original cartoon, and it seemed like a good money-maker. However, no game can compare with TMNT's overall horrible-ness. It's a platformer-action game, which the NES was ... Read Full Review

    TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES ----TURTLE POWER !!!!!

    I remember when I first got this game on NES many, many years ago. It was one of my first few games on NES, one of the most challenging games I have ever played and one of the most rewarding experiences I've had as a gam... Read Full Review

    Bad level design and horrendous difficulty hurt this otherwise classic game

    For its time, TMNT was a game that earned you some serious cool points if you could beat it without the use of a game genie. Looking back on it now, the game has some serious design issues that add to the notorious diffi... Read Full Review

    Best of the series!

    The first TMNT-game for the NES is clearly different from its sequels. While TMNT 2 and 3 were strictly arcade type hack and slash, this game has many adventure elements and vastly broader possibilities of how you finish... Read Full Review
