Trog
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Publisher: Konami.
Year: 1989. Difficulty: Hard. Graphics: Good.
This
is a good game, but to be truthful I
like TMNT III much, much better. The characters are designed well
enough, but definitely not as articulated as the characters in
III. Also, the Turtles do not have any special ninja moves.
You would think, considering the fact that they are ninjas, they
would've done something about this. They can stand or duck or
jump in the air, and that's it. Fortunately, then can attack in
mid-jump. But what I don't really like is how they made it so
complex. The Turtles characters have to move on a map and go into
sewers and buildings. Not all places are necessary to go into so
sometimes you're just wasting your time. Then it moves from the
overhead view to the side view when you're inside your
destinations. And how come only a couple hits from an enemy can
take your energy way down? This kind of makes things a bit harder
than it has to be. But overall, I love the idea of a Turtles game
and all the neat adventures you can have venturing into sewers and all
kinds of buildings, going underwater to diffuse bombs, and much more.
Teenage Mutant
Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project:
Publisher: Konami. Year:
1992.
Difficulty: Medium. Graphics: High.
You
can be any one of the four
crimefighting Turtles. If you lose a life, you can be the same
Turtle again or choose a different Turtle. Believe me, each
Turtle has his own advantages for the particular villains you
fight. You'll have to experiment for yourself. There
is a LOT to do in this game and the graphics are awesome! Plenty
of action. You can fight all the characters from the Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoons and live-action movies including the
second film's Tokka the snapping turtle, Rahzar the wolf, and Super
Shredder! There are many different kinds of Foot Soldiers in this
video game than you will see in any other medium of the Turtles.
In the cartoons and comics you only see purple Foot Soldiers. The
Soldiers in this game come in all kinds of colors and have many
different talents. Just tons and tons of bad guys to beat!
Each Turtle also has special moves that you can use on their
enemies. Plenty of exciting locations. The designers of
this game definitely put a lot of work into it. It's of medium
difficulty, but will keep you busy and is just a wonderful experience
to play.
Tiny Toon
Adventures 2: Trouble in Wackyland:
Publisher: Konami. Year: 1993. Difficulty: Easy.
Graphics: High.
What I like about this game is
that it is
practically non-violent. Nothing more serious here than an
occasional "bumping" of the bad guys. Montana Max has taken over
the otherwise peaceful Wackyland amusement park. Five of the Tiny
Toons characters have to survive dangerous rides to stop him. You
can be Babs Bunny on the rollercoaster, Plucky Duck in the bumper cars,
Hamton Pig on the train ride, or Furrball on the log ride. Once
you have acquired 50 tickets from the rides or 4 gold tickets (by
successfully completing each of the four primary rides), you can be
Buster Bunny in the Fun House. After a long search in the Fun
House you will find Montana Max (after dealing with Elmyra Duff and
other baddies first) and must beat him to win the game and save the
day. The characters and backgrounds are beautifully designed and
look like they come right out of tz[LʡxN
