TMNT: The Arcade Game coming to Xbox Live?

[A Black Falcon]

ABF, from what I've read and played, really aside from graphics, sound, and the lack of 4 player mode, the NES version was pretty much the same game, but with extra levels and an extra boss. As I said above, if they just add the few things the NES actually had over the arcade game to the arcade game, it'll be the best of both worlds.

The NES version was horrible. It had a lot of the content, but it didn't play with anywhere near the fluidity. And, I always felt there was a major collision control problem, i.e. enemies not being hit when you hit them, unless you were on the exact same vertical position as they were, pixel for pixel. Most other games like this compensated and had a little more leeway in that regard. Including the Arcade version.

Yup. Obviously, of course, it's also quite lacking graphically in comparison... :)

I don't think it had any added content either, unlike Turtles in Time for SNES and its several added levels.

Yeah, I was thinking of Turtles in Time. Which was awesome, by the way.

Turtles in Time is indeed awesome (I have it for SNES, fantastic game), but the original arcade game is just as good.

Also, it was the first gaming example I can think of with inserted advertising (Pizza Hut) but games set in modern day in an urban setting don't suffer from that, just EVERYTHING ELSE EVER. Middle Earth doesn't HAVE billboards! I'm not buying this "the money we get from the advertising leads to better games" stuff. I WATCHED I. Robot! I know better! Um, what were we talking about?

Well, at least for the case of the Ninja Turtles, pizza company advertising makes sense... :)
