First shots of Ninja Turtles on 360


TeamXbox reports that Ubisoft has switched gears on development for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, opting to bring the game to the 360 instead of the original Xbox. The game is set to ship on March 13, just days before the March 23 release of the new TMNT movie. Along with this announcement, Ubisoft has released the first Xbox 360 images of the game. Looking at the shots, we picture a cartoony version of Ninja Gaiden, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The game promises plenty of ninja combat, acrobatics, and a "darker, more realistic Turtle experience." A realistic game about mutated, crime fighting turtles? It's about damned time. Follow the read link for one more screenshot and nutritious PR speak.

Somebody finish this lyric: "Heroes in a half shell ...."

3. hmmm... I hope those screens are of the ps2 version...

I have hopes though... and I have to say that I love the source material. It's nice that the movie isn't focusing so much on the current cartoon as the origional black and white comic books...

4. hmmm, a last minute platform change AND a release date locked into matching up with a movie? Sounds like trouble for this one.

5. Looks awfully sparse...and barren...and crappy.

The characters are incredibly low poly...this has to be a joke.

8. Ugh. I was so excited for this game. But those screenshots look like ass. Now, I know it should be gameplay over graphics, but I just can't get past something that looks like it could be done on a PS1.

9. Perhaps, and this is what I'm hoping, they have yet to re-do many of the art assets to take advantage of the 360?

Then again, it does seem silly to announce you're switching to a powerful next-gen console only to complement the news with pictures of the old version, but... oh, I can't imagine they would fly with graphics like that. It's almost as if they just upped the resolution, took the screenshots, and called it a day.

10. I think it could be a lot of fun, but I'm really hoping these graphics are for the Wii or PS2 or something. The 360 could practically run a game that looked almost as good as the new movie...
