Probably my favorite-ever game-movie tie-in game has to be TMNT, on the GBA. It's the only Ubisoft game I've ever played that wasn't absolutely terrible, and it returned the turtles to the realm of beat-em-ups.

I'd actually go as far to say that it's better than Turtles in Time (despite the fact that game holds a special place in my heart, and I still play it completely through, annually. I'm that guy who barks orders at the other 3 players on who picks up the pizza in the level and when) as it plays more like River City Ransom with a combo/juggle system than it does a TMNT game. You can pick up items off the ground and use them as a weapon (either like a baseball bat, or something you could throw. You could throw mailboxes. MAILBOXES) Every Turtle has individual stats that can be improved by consuming items so you can really customize your squad as you see fit. There's also an assist-call feature that works like MVC, where one of your Turtle brothers jumps down, does an attack, and then jumps back offscreen. You also learn more attacks as your Turtle levels up. It's actually really, REALLY great and only $6 because everyone thinks it's a shitty movie tie-in game.

Does it sound familiar? Of course it does. Ubisoft Chengdu recycled the engine for the Scott Pilgrim VS The World game.

Of course, that ran on next-gen systems which were capable of handling many more characters onscreen, so you had full-out multiplayer and online play and whatnot. But it was still equally great!! (and I can't believe not a single person mentioned that game instead!!)
