Now the best thing to happen in 2K12? Slash and Destroy, by far.



It had all the best things about TMNT&mdash;it was noir, it was introspective, it was peppered with subtlety, it was impassioned, it managed to incorporate some physically and emotionally intense fighting situations, it had excellent rich character development... It could just as easily have been repackaged as a Mirage story and fit right in as one of the better ones. And, it greatly improved on the complicated Archie antivillain character it reimagined.

The drawback is that it also drastically raised hopes and expectations in some of us about the course of the series' writing and quality&mdash;something that could be taken a lot more seriously as good drama&mdash;and the show never really again delivered on that sense of promise. 2K12, thy name is disappointment.
