 * A man was severely injured after the terrorist bombing of a sex shop. The turtles investigated the ruins of said sex shop.
 * The turtles lived for a few months in a watertower, without Splinter, April or Casey. The turtles had a crisis of purpose, and eventually learnt how to make decisions on their own that they knew even Splinter might disapprove of, but to accept those decisions and stand by them.
 * Casey met, fell in love and married a woman named Gabrielle, who was already pregnant with a daughter. Casey adopted that baby and it became his stepdaughter Shadow Jones.
 * April went to live with her sister Robyn in Los Angeles.
 * Splinter became stranded inside an industrial ruin with a broken leg for two months, and the Rat King taught Splinter how to break his cannibalism taboo and eat live rats to survive.
 * The turtles helped Karai hunt down and execute the Shredder's lieutenants one by one, most of them dying inside what was left of April's destroyed apartment.
 * April bought the apartment building Casey's mother owned, and became a landlord of tenants including Casey himself, who returned with Shadow after his wife died. April and Casey eventually moved in together, and became a couple, and later married with Shadow as their daughter.

And the chances of any of these things happening in 2K12 are...I'm gonna say nonexistent. XD I predict this "City at War" will be even less like the Mirage version than the 2003 version (which was already pretty different as it was). IDW had City Fall, but that was only inspired by City at War, and not a full reimagining of it. Still, even City Fall had a lot of blood being spilt and people dying. I doubt it will be that violent, true. But I'm still hoping the part with Karai being a part of the turtle's family is true.
