LEGO Batman: The Videogame

[jesse]

It starts to have the habit of Lego "widgets". After Star Wars and Indiana Jones, is that Traveller's Tales tackles the Batman license. If developers admit to having collaborated with DC Comics to paste the best possible total universe of the bat, one can still wonder about the interest of the project in relation to the previous two titles from the studio. Simple updated suited to Gotham City or real added value in terms of interest?



Batman, Robin ... and others!

The scenario is simple: a large number of villains of Batman comic allied around the malicious Joker to get their hands on a weapon destructive power and control Gotham City. Unsurprisingly, it will have to embody the male bats himself and his young acolyte to prevent Robin Double Face, the mystery man or the Penguin to commit their crimes. But while previous productions Traveler's Tales do you propose that embody Nice figures, Lego Batman invites you in addition to controlling the major villains in history. It will therefore be the fifteen missions twice, with different objectives depending on the camp chosen. Despite the repetitive side that can present this type of approach (who said Devil May Cry 4?), Some appreciate the opportunity to experience the original story of this Lego Batman in all the seams.



It repeats the same ...

The principle of the game did not change against one iota. The Bat-cave will serve as a hub for access to various missions, where it will use the skills of your different characters to avoid pitfalls. While Batman and Robin use various combinations to vary the pleasures (control a drone, laying mines…), the bad guys will simply fixed specific powers (the umbrella of Penguin is used to hover for example). New possibilities for gameplay are also emerging as Batman boomerang to catch the many bolts or mechanisms to activate certain distance, or the presence catch (choppes) a little boost from the interest of fighting. Similarly, many vehicles are expected to be present for the final, most famous cars of men in latex costume means of locomotion as more conventional vans and motorcycles.



Lego GTA?

The mechanical gambling are substantially similar to the previous Lego, with variations that one can imagine in view of the universe proposed. The title is visually in line with previous shutters, offering clearly a dark world of comic closer than one might imagine. Nothing new under the sun regarding animation or even the sound environment, always as clean and efficient than usual. Ultimately, Lego Batman does not surprise despite some really nice additions as the possibility of a fortnight of embody evil included in the game should ultimately find its audience, without blushing that can store the box alongside the Star Wars episodes and Indiana Jones. And if developers, by their own admission, would like to develop a GTA-like gentillet based on the universe of Lego, the next phase likely will turn more on the side of Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. But we do not know!

Batman starts in grey suit and can wear a rocket/gray suit, a sonic/blue suit, a bat bomb/grey suit and a shadow/black suit.[5] [6] Robin can wear a technology/red-yellow suit, a dive/red-blue suit, a magnetic/red-grey suit and a gravity suit.[5] [6] When you find those suits you can buy them in the hubs and play as those in free play.

As in the previous Lego games (such as Lego Star Wars and Lego Indiana Jones), once a player completes a level, that level is unlocked in 'Freeplay Mode'. Freeplay mode allows the player to replay any level they've completed with any characters they've unlocked, unlike Story Mode, which only allows players to switch between the characters involved in that scene. This permits access to areas containing extras the player was unable to get before.

Warner Bros Interactive has revealed to MCV that the eagerly awaited LEGO Batman: The Videogame will be released on October 10th.

The title, which studio Traveller’s Tales has already branded its ‘best LEGO game yet’, is the latest in a series of games to mix the LEGO brand with well-loved franchises, and follows the hugely successful LEGO Star Wars, LEGO Star Wars II and LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures.

LEGO Batman has already received positive previews from the press and is one of the most heavily-anticipated game releases of 2008.

“The reaction has been very positive from retailers and consumers,” Traveller’s Tales product manager Richard Earl told MCV. “This is the best LEGO game that we’ve made so far and it seems retailers and consumers agree with us.

“We are backing it with marketing and we definitely hope it will be one of the top titles for the Christmas period. The hero and the villain modes are great, and we think it’s going to be lots of fun for consumers,” Earl added.

LEGO Batman’s release follows the record breaking The Dark Knight film, which has just generated over $500 million in the US alone. While LEGO Batman: The Videogame doesn’t directly tie into the movie, the title will benefit from the huge popularity of the cinema release.

When quizzed on the future for LEGO-branded titles, Earl told MCV: “We’re currently concentrating on LEGO Batman – getting it finished and to a level that is as good as it can be. We feel that as long as we create fresh and fun LEGO games there is certainly life in the brand.”

The most recent game that I found is Lego Marvels Superhero. This is not yet out but the game features a number of super heroes from various series. Like Hulk, Batman, Superman, Wonder Women, etc. This really nice and cute game for kids. I am not sure about the exact release date but this is one time worth to see. There are around 22 new figures added in the game. The game simply focus on Spider Men, Xmen and Avengers characters.

Did you see Lego Monster Fighters. This is also a new game. There is still some months when the final is release. I had tried to find information on this game but there is no information provided. The game looks to be a character fighting with monsters on doomed earth. Hopefully this is a enjoyable game. I can see the trailer on its official site and a basic of game plot. There is also a mini game provided which shows you the sample of gameplay.
