I still remember playing the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade machine while on holiday with my family. It was in the basement of our hotel and I could spend what felt like hours kicking ass as Raphael, after all he was cool but rude, looking back it was probably more like ten minutes and let my family have a break from their annoying youngest child, still its a treasured memory. I would go on from there to play games like Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, Sunset Riders, Castle Crashers, Scott Pilgrim and the X-Men arcade. What can I say I love a good old fashioned side scroller.

I guess that is why the trailer for this new game has me fully pumped up.

As soon as I heard that theme tune I was 100% sold.

This one will stand high with all the classics out there and will be an instant purchase once it is released.
