The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are partnering with Ubisoft to celebrate their 25th Anniversary with a brand new game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up. This is the first Ninja Turtles video game that is not directly tied to a movie, television show or comic book. The 4-player action brawler features a variety of battle modes including on-line multi-player game-play, mini-games, and an original story mode for single player co-created with Peter Laird.
The game is developed for the Wii system from Nintendo by Game Arts part of the team who worked on Super Smash Bros. Brawl. While similar to their past project, Smash-Up offers some new surprises and features for a new shell-raising experience. Throughout the game, fans will be treated to unlock-able surprises celebrating 25 years of Turtle history.
Choose from a wide variety of classic TMNT heroes and villains, each with unique acrobatic moves, weapons and combat skills that will come in handy during the free-for-all brawls.
Not only can you immerse yourself in the world of TMNT through the story mode, you can also challenge your friends at home or on-line in a variety of multi-player modes including tournament, battle royal, and more.
Packed with over-the-top ninja action and smack-talking game-play, Smash-Up offers hours of fun for novice players as well as ninja masters. Finding unique combos and unlocking and special attacks add more elements to each character and battle.
Be prepared for interactive levels with moving arenas, gators jumping from the water, and many more surprises. Collect shells during battles and mini-games to unlock memorable moments and exclusive content of TMNTs 25-year history.
The single-player story mode offers a completely original story written by Peter Laird (the co-creator of TMNT). But unlike his previous comic books and movies, this time you get to be a part of the story.

I loved the turtles growing up so this was a natural choice for me. I find that some of the characters are easily beaten so if you are trying to get a high KO count then don't use certain characters and some are easier to move and turn around fast.
There are various platforms you can play, practice, tournament and a few I haven't even thought to try. I personally prefer the survival mode as it goes on until you are killed and then it is game over so if you have a lot of people wanting to play then it is easier for everyone to have a go but the kids prefer the bonus battles as it can go on a lot longer and you can do a two player game but then I think you are on opposite sides which of course appeals to my two as that is the only way that they can battle .. don't encourage them to fight in real life.
I'm starting to hope that there are other turtle games as I'm getting a bit fed up with this one but it is one of the boys favourite so I guess I'm going to have to put up with it for a bit longer.
