...well, the PS2 version anyway.

What a load of crap. It's one of the most boring and repetitive games I've ever played. It was fun jumping about in slow-mo for a bit, but then it lost it's appeal after I'd killed about 100 guards - just by pressing a few buttons in the same combination. Not my cup of tea at all. the driving bit was a let-down too. The first one only lasted about a minute, then it was onto the same running, jumping, kicking nonsense as before.

And the graphics! How they passed this off as a PS2 game is beyond me. I honestly thought some cut-scenes were ripped straight out of Driver from the PS1! Bad textures, characters and dodgy camera positions just added to the boredom. No, this game wasn't the "One" for me I'm afraid.

Now, that Ninja Turtles game on the other hand...

No-one, but I'm giving it to you so that you don't waste your money on it! The game was hardly pushing the envelope of gaming graphics now, was it!? And what's witht he saving/loading bits every time you go through a door? You're only met by the same dreary textures in the next room - even Red Faction had less loading times than this and more impressive freatures. For a movie licence that promised so much it is truly a disappointment.

I got the xbox version and was really dissapointed! I think that
they could have done much more with the licence. As for the graphics
I read an interview with the makers and they said that each version
would be the best the platform could do.
