Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!

Woo Woo!

This game looks SUPERB!

If there ever was a game, which REALLY does look like your playing a cartoon, it is this game!

I really can't wait to play this. It looks like a good ol' side scrolling beat-em-up brought forth to the 21st century!

This will be gaming goodness!

:D

They're both the official names.

In the reign of Maggie Thatcher, 'Ninja' was too violent and offensive for the kids to occasionally see printed on their favourite cartoon's logo, and so it was replaced with 'Hero'.

So they're both official, except, anything new will likely have the 'Ninja' text rather than 'Hero' in it.

I just wanted to know why the turtles are either refered to as Teenage Mutant HERO Turtles or Teenage Mutant NINGA Turtles. What is their official name?

BUT - There was a live action Ninja Turtles series with an extra turtle named Venus which sucked beyond belief.

Plus, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 (the movie, that is) sucked beyond belief also.

And this new game is based upon the 'NEW' cartoon series shown on Fox - it might not be as good as the original cartoon series...which was quality.

I had a TMNT game for the Atari ST. Fab game, i managed to get to shredder on one occasion, but he bested me.

You know, it's not really a half shell is it?
