[Rumour] Rocksteady Making Ninja Turtles Game?

[Hadrian]

I really want this to be true!

- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Manhattan Crisis is the alleged name
- Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo are the four playable characters
- each has their own varied move set and weapon of choice (sword, bo staff, sai, and nunchuck respectively).
- Flashbacks are played as Master Splinter/Hamato Yoshi.
- Shurikens, smoke bombs, grappling hooks, and climbing foot spikes.
- Gameplay and story/stage progression similar to Batman: Arkham City.
- Classic characters such as Bebop and Rocksteady (warthog and rhinoceros), Dr. Baxter Stockman, Shredder (Oroku Saki), and Krang act as bosses and in the case of the humans-turned-mutants, you fight them in both forms throughout the story.
- The Turtle Van and Turtle Blimp will be present and with them and other gadgets, the Wii U build is expected to have touch screen controls for specific actions.
- Multiplayer is unknown.
- Graphics engine used is that of Arkham City.
- The game is expected to be more dark than slapstick, but the turtles themselves and their interactions with the Foot Clan, bosses, and story characters like April O’Neil and Casey Jones will still have comedy attached.
- Purportedly being in development for Wii U, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3.
- Careful selection of voice actors to bring the universe to life as well as Rocksteady did with their two Batman games.

- Manhattan Crisis shares a similar name to the 1991/1992 NES title, “The Manhattan Project”, but is very much its own title.

Sounds good to me, I nice mix up of what I like from the original comics and the 80's and the later series. Its been a while since we last had a good Turtles game (the GBA TMNT) and I think they're due for a comeback.

....I'd buy this. No idea why.

 

[Hells Malice]

I never bothered with Arkham Asylum/City since batman has never been my thing, but i'd definitely buy this day 1.
Ninja Turtles are awesome.

Fuck yeah Bebop and Rocksteady

If there's any developer that can make this work, it's Rocksteady. Count me interested (as long as they can fit this in there, of course).

 

[Jakob95]

They should make another game with something like The Green Lantorn, or that Arrow guy. Or even better the whole Justice League together would be awesome.

Bebop and Rocksteady?

There has never been a bad tmnt game (not even the licensed one to go with the crappy cg movie)
this will be good

OMG this sounds too good to be true

 

[KingVamp]

While I played other Ninja Turtles, I have lasting memories to the gamecube one.

If it real then awesome.

If it's either the comic version or version of the Shredder from the first movie, I will be thrilled.

id actually prefer the 2003 anime shredder - or well at least the look and attitude of him. not the part of him being an alien.
