Some ineffective weapons, you can die even when you're not in one of *th levels!, that ruddy seaweed, difficulty level, some gameplay/controller lag


General Comments

I first played Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles when I was a mere youngster. For a ten year old girl I was pretty good at video games, and had a keen interest in the NES.

The first time I played Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles I almost died within three minutes. Why? Because a stupid purple thing came towards me and I, out of curiosity, went to inspect closer the enemy-in-disguise, that's why.

I found it a bit unfair you could be attacked on what I'd consider to be a static point in gameplay.

Unscathed, I restarted the machine, lesson learned. And on to the levels I did proceed, baffled mostly by inward questions of "er, haven't I been here before?" as I accidentally went down the wrong sewer a few times to previous missions and got bludgeoned to death before you could say "turtle soup".

With a fair few of my best turtles biting the dust left right and centre, I had little hope for the remaining, most of whom sported useless weapons I'd failed to see much of a use for.

I finally made it, rugged and panting, to an underwater mission that involved disarming a few bombs. Good stuff, I thought, a beat-the-clock platform with some jellyfish thrown in for good measure.

Oh.
My.
Pants.

Two seconds in: I flunked. ELECTRIC SEAWEED?! Now come on, this is unfair. Especially since my television screen was practically covered in the stuff.

Despite my steady hands, I failed to see how some parts could be achieved without some sort of miracle.

By pure luck, I passed this level, with only one turtle and a big stupid stick left of my bravery.

This, please note, is when I laughed disbelievingly to myself, and let a huge purple pig maul me to death.

Sorry, Master Splinter.
