What is it with Platinum and adapting popular animated series into video games these days?

First it was Legend of Korra, then Transformers, and now it's (supposedly) TMNT.

I don't suspect there's any chance that they could maybe tackle classic Dragon Ball next....;)

Oh man, Platinum doing a TMNT game?! Be still my beating heart......

A few more things: platforms are reportedly PS3/PS4, 360/One, and PC. Also, Australia's M rating is equivalent to America's T, so it's not going to be some weirdly adult game like I thought the classification was implying. :lol:

Yeah, I'm hoping "online interactivity" means that it will include general co-op (split-screen, please!).

They want to do Kill la Kill and Berserk apparently. Perhaps they could do DB as well. :)

Yeah, wow. This is giving me real good nostalgia! Between this, Star Fox, Nier, and Scalebound, Platinum is going to be on fire next year.

Speaking of upcoming P* titles, rumor has it that Kamiya is interested in making a sequel to one of his legacy games, and the front-runner in all the polls he held was Okami...

Actually, seeing as how the original comic is very dark and gritty and not at all meant for kids, an M rated TMNT game that is designed to be in-line with the tone of the source material could potentially be awesome.

Spark Of Spirit

I imagine it would be like the recent Nick show. Which is pretty good at bridging both humor and the dark tint the franchise is known for. Believe me, if they stayed true to the show it would probably be more in line with Platinum's original games than their other licensed ones.

It just needs to have four player co-op. A TMNT game without it is like a Sonic game without speed-based gameplay or a Mega Man game without the weapon switching. It can be done, it just misses something fundamental to the experience.

I wouldn't mind a game set in the Mirage or IDW verses, especially since the latter supposedly combines elements throughout all the franchise like the Nick show does.

Spark Of Spirit

How is "Shadow Complex: Remastered" a World Premiere announcement? It's not a new game.

This is what I get for turning this stupid thing on for two seconds.

It's free on PC, though. Free is good. I like free.

Spark Of Spirit

It's a great game, but just like Rocket League, it's not a "World Premiere". I guess they couldn't get any actual game announcements for the show.

Well, they announced a Kickstarter for Psychonauts 2!

Did it come with an onscreen Kickstarter commercial!

I can't wait to Double Fine this game. Remember kids, Double Fine means you pay twice. :^)

Hell, it's not even really Kickstarter, it's some new crowd sourcing platform made by developers so they wouldn't get dinged with KS fees to both KS and Amazon. Oh yeah, Tim Schafer has a hand in starting that new platform up.

Just found out that TellTale is going to be doing a Batman game set for next year.

I can't wait for this. Now that the Arkham series is done, I have no doubt that they can keep the stream of good Batman games going. The Wolf Among Us is concrete proof they can make a great Batman story.
