Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan

What Platinum has been able to achieve while also ensuring the game makes it out in time for the movie is something other developers only dream that they can do. By licensed game standards Platinum has been able to use its “Bayonetta framework” to deliver a fine iteration of a classic franchise. What is unfortunate is that all it needed was some more time. Ultimately, all that’s wrong with Mutants in Manhattan was that it couldn’t meet Platinum’s own stratospheric standards.
