LEGO® The Incredibles
It’s common for the average gamer to see a game and automatically dismiss it because it’s based off the film/films but LEGO games have always proved that their movie based games are great and possess lots of unlockables and repayability. If you are familiar with LEGO games, you know that every game has some features which drastically set it apart from one another. Tt games is always trying to raise the bar, LEGO The Incredibles is no excpetion.
What’s different? What separates this game from past LEGO games?

I actually recommended this game in a review a while ago, but I eventually decided to give it the thumbs down. Not because of the gameplay itself, cause the gameplay is fun, but just because the game itself is too short. Lego games made after movies really should have a minimum of 3 movies in it, a trilogy, or it’s too short. For instance, Lego Star Wars has all 6 (and 7), Lego Jurassic World has all 4 movies. I had a feeling this one would be short, because there’s only 2 Incredible movies, but I love the first Incredible movie, and have been waiting for the Lego game, so I decided to give this one a try. It was good, and I kinda liked it at the start, but after a year of owning it, it’s not one of the best Lego games.

LEGO® Batman™ 2: DC Super Heroes
So, I do recommend this game, because it’s wicked fun, especially with two players, but it does have some problems.
I got this game because I’m really into Batman, and I wanted to try to get my 7 year old daughter into it too. I was playing Batman: Arkham City with her, but my wife found out about it, and she was not happy. So, we agreed that this way more kid-friendly game was probably a good compromise. And it is pretty kid-friendly as far as content goes. The characters are fun, and building LEGO stuff in-game to make vehicles and such is a blast. As far as my goal of getting my daughter into Batman, it worked like a charm, and now we’re watching the movies and TV shows, and as soon as she can read I will start getting her some of the old comics. So there’s that.

If you played the first Lego batman and you liked it then you will definitely love this.
Lego batman 2 improves upon its predecessor in every aspect: you got now voice acting, some of the old suits are combined and there are also new suits for Batman and Robin, more characters to play with including Superman and other Justice League Lego characters, super powers.
The storyline is surprisingly good and even though I was skeptic about the Lego character having a voice, I was impressed by the good voice acting which added to the story.

LEGO® Indiana Jones™ 2: The Adventure Continues
Lego Indiana Jones 2 isn’t exactly a sequel but the entire India Jones movie franchise all in one, spanning all 4 films including the infamous “hide in a fridge to survive a nuclear explosion” scene. It was one of the first Lego games to feature quest hubs for all chapters to have as little backtracking as possible to unlock all secrets with alternate characters and features great art design and gameplay.
The only lacking part are the mandatory vehicle missions and contrary to the batman series and many other games within the Lego franchise, the vehicle sequences in Indiana Jones 2 really fall far and almost entirely off the grid. They feel grindy, badly designed and are highly repetitive, requiting the player to always destroy three waves of specific enemies while the rest of them keep spawning infinitely. They attempted to make it feel like suspense and momentum but ultimately failed in that endeavour.

It’s a good game, and it’s very unique compared to the rest of the LEGO games. Most levels last around 5-8 minutes, for starters, compared to the past were most levels averaged out like 15 minutes or so. Each “world” consists of 15 levels, 5 story levels, 5 “post-story” levels, which are levels you play after finishing the story levels, and 5 bonus levels. I really enjoy the post story levels because you get to come back to the level after you beat it with everything changed after what happened in the story level. Take for example if you’re playing a level, and something explodes near the end of it, when you come back, the level would be charred and burned from the explosion, which is super cool.

LEGO® Indiana Jones™: The Original Adventures
This is my favorite “early” Lego game. Now, with LOTR, POTC, and Batman 2, these games have complex “hub worlds” and hundreds of collectables of different sorts. This game, Star Wars, and Batman (1) were the original Lego games with a bunch of characters, 10 minikit pieces per level, and not much else. They seem basic compared to games like Lego LOTR, but this game, Indiana Jonse 1, was the best of the original lego games. It has the best level design, a broad selection of the characters you’d want, a great soundtrack, and a general sense of completeness. It has everything you’d want in a Lego Indy game (if you are not a big Crystal Skull fan–which I am not). Some things about this game that are different from other early Lego games: You can pick up weapons (a fallen foe’s scimitar, a native’s spear, a Nazi’s rifle). It adds variety to mashing the fight button. The game makes good use of Indy’s whip. It also reminds you of how great all three individual soundtracks were, and the difference between them. Highly recommended for the casual player or devoted collector-type. :)

Well, usually I hold off on writing a review until after I’ve finished a game, but I have a lot to say about this one and I remember most of it anyway.
When I was about 8 or 9, I played hours of this with my younger brother. Never mind that we only had one keyboard to share, the disc froze up more often than not, and we were both pretty bad at it, we loved every moment anyway. I just bought it again today, and surprise! it’s still good. Clearly a labor of love, if a little unpolished.
What isn’t good game design is goofy and/or funny. What isn’t goofy and/or funny is good game design. What isn’t either of those is probably a little broken. Anything else is either John Williams' score or a plug for Lego Star Wars, and those both speak for themselves. Overall, this comes highly recommended. Everyone should have it.

LEGO® Batman™: The Videogame
Literally a masterpiece. Played the hell out of it on playstation 2. i love going through the story as batman and robin for it to switch at the midway point and do everything again but from the villains POV. Love it. the game will always have a special place.
BUT the PC port is laughable, heaps of gamebreaking bugs and you have to play with VSync on as it effects jumping.
The soundtrack is godtier and it never fails to give me goosebumps.

LEGO® Star Wars™ - The Complete Saga
This game is a masterpiece. The UI is simple, but genius. The characters are funny, relatable, and memorable. The gameplay seems simple but has extreme strategy and depth. The maps are awesome and immerse you into the world of LEGO Star Wars. The fact that there are so many collectibles like red bricks, minikits, and gold bricks adds the sense of wanting to collect all of it. The gold bricks seem useless but are worth the hours it takes to collect them all. The graphics are a tiny out dated, but beautiful, perfectly capturing the style of LEGO Star Wars. 10/10 Best game I’ve ever played.

This game was my childhood, i used to go home everday after school to play some with my brother. I have very fond and happy memories with it and i have now when im older bought it here to get some nostaliga. Let me tell you its still the same, its hilarious and still worth the money its costs. If you have a friend or family member to play it with, DO IT! The cutscenes may be a bit wierd an not really as good as the new ones but it has its nice charm too it. I recomenned 100%.

LEGO® Harry Potter: Years 5-7
First of all, I love both LEGO and most TT games (especially the STAR WARS games) and I grew up with Harry Potter.
Storywise, there is some really good, typical, visual humor and the Story is of course amazing, if you enjoy Harry Potter.
The big deal with this game is however, that the raw gameplay is fantastic. Of course, you have to own a controller, because the game is, in my opinion, unplayable without one. But if you’ve got that figured out, there is nothing between you and an amazing game.

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 (Action-adventure)
Notes: Controller highly recommended! Ginormous snake warning!
I’ll skip the usual options and general gameplay description since I covered it all in my review of the first Lego HP game HERE . There are a few changes to the core of the game besides the expected changes in scenery.
First off, the graphics are more complex than in the first installment. The changes help to illustrate the growth of the characters, both in physical age and in maturity. Those familiar with the HP series of books/movies know that eventually we move away from Hogwarts and into entirely new areas. LEGO HP handles these new areas very nicely, and they manage to tie everything together in a way that feels both isolated and connected at the same time.

LEGO® Batman™ 3: Beyond Gotham
Although not the best of the Batman series (I believe the first one cannot be beat), this is pretty enjoyable.
Things I like
-
Character Roster. The roster has a lot of variety and plenty of people to chose from. I feel though maybe taking out some of the generic lanterns and putting more iconic lanterns instead as rewards would’ve been cooler.
-
ADAM WEST. Probably my favorite part, I really liked thses rescue missions and the special mission. These are the very deffinition of charming.
-Flying. The controls are a definite improvement over the last one, at least the one on the Wii (aka take this with a grain of salt)

As I write this review the Arrow DLC still has yet to drop so I’m basing this on having 100% this game with the current three dlcs out with the season pass. First and foremost let me say how much I hated the storyline in this game. For me it was the worst of all the lego games I’ve played (the other Batmans, Harry Potter, Marvel, Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, Lego Movie). I will admit my biggest problem is that I’m not a big DC person. I only like a few characters and Batman is one of them so when I buy a game called Lego Batman I expect the storyline to be promeniently about Batman. This wasn’t that. This was Lego Green Lantern or Lego DC Universe but it wasn’t Lego Batman. I realize that they probably called it that to make more money but it really irks me. Don’t get me wrong I still had fun with the game, as I do with all the lego games. I was just really looking forward to a batman centric story. That being said I did not run into as many glitches as others have complained about. I also played this game with the XBOX wired controller for Windows and never had a single problem with the controls as some other people have said. The controller worked fine for me and I played all nearly 70 hours with it.

LEGO® Marvel Super Heroes 2
Warning: Ignore ALL troll reviews that will downvote this game just because it’s missing X-Men and Fantastic 4. If you’re going to read a review, it should be from someone who isn’t stuck on the characters that are missing but the quality of content and the actual experience the game provides.
▪How many hours does my hard-earned cash get me?
If you played the first game, you probably know that it easily gave you 40-100 hours worth of stuff to do. I’m happy to say that this game goves you 120-200 hours worth of stuff if you want to 100% the game. The game basically has twice the content of the first game.

Not quite Secret Wars, but this’ll do
This is a fine entry in the long running series of Lego games which serve dual purposes. On one hand, the Lego games are easy pick up and play action games that can really be enjoyed by any age, from little kids to grown ups. On the other hand, the main franchise from Traveler’s Tales also serves as fanfare for a number of intellectual properties, ranging from DC comics to Jurassic Park to Star Wars, and more. And of course, Marvel comics.
This entry is stacked. With a roster of over 230 characters in the base game to unlock, and an additional 60+ characters with the DLC added, there is bound to be some superheroes and villains in this game that might pique even the most jaded Marvel fanboys interest.
