I feel like Thundercats could make an awesome, old-school four-player beat-em-up.
THUNDER...THUUUNNDER...THUNNNDERCAAAAAAAATSSS...HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@Adamant Ditto
I'm kind of amazed konami didn't make one in the nineties, after all they did make some beat em ups based on some really obscure properties (cowboys of moo mesa)
The background spritework is pretty dece
About time a Thundercats game has been made. I've been waiting for one since NES days.
Interesting. I will try it this August. By the way, I liked Panthro from classic tv the best and not Japanese anime. He was cool!
And I still have yet to watch the new series...
"developed by Aspect Digital"
Yeah not looking forward to this at all, they make some really mediocre games. I actually think the new cartoon is pretty good though it does do the same "Lion-O starts off arrogant then learns his lesson only to do the same stuff for the next episode".
Love Thundercats... but the whole 'we're not making X game for X new system because it has a lower userbase' idea is a really old and silly ideal to cling to a year+ on!
is this new show any good?
I haven't seen any episodes of the new series, but I really like the artstyle.
Yes and no... mostly "disappointing." Yes because the animation is really beautiful and Snarf, Tygra, and Wily Kit and Kat are standouts.
No because while the show started off great, it slowly descended. The writing has been getting weaker, Lion-O has been getting on my nerves, Cheetara has been regulated to "The sole female to win over in a love triangle," almost every episode feels like a filler episode, and while the animation is very pretty, the action scenes are the most disappointing part of the series. It's incredibly stiff and not choreographed well and frankly there's very little of it. Cheetara does not run fast at all and Tygra's whip animation is incredibly un-whip-like.
After being spoiled by Last Airbender/Legend of Korra and DC Nation (which airs right after Thundercats and comprises of Green Lantern and Young Justice), Thundercats 2.0 has been a disappoint.
It's a shame too since at first I thought Thundercats 2.0 > Young Justice but the former has been going nowhere while the latter has proven me wrong as it constantly ramps itself up to greater things.
I gotta disagree with Bunnycow. I've actually watched all of the old Thundercats episodes and they are borderline horrible. The new series generally cuts out the fat and nonsense to tell the story of Lion-O learning through trial and error how to be a king. Also, Panthro is still a gruff bamf.
I disagree the entire series and the animation are very good. I personally like it.
