Nintendo Wii Review: LEGO Batman - Page 2

A solid, all age title with considerable replay value including bonus content and unlockables found in free play mode. This game has some issues, but they're minor. Younger players may occasionally get stuck in their progression; some of the environment can be too dark to see (depending on your TV settings) and there's no real advantage getting the Wii version over another console version. Overall, this game succeeds yet again by incorporating a current franchise with LEGO mania. The Danny Elfman music score, from the first Batman film, permeates game play plus players can enjoy some amusing sound effects to make those tactical block creations all the more real and effective. With three LEGO franchises created into game, developers have several options to expand in same format…maybe a land (Halo), sea (Pirates of the Caribbean) and air (Spider-Man) combination would keep players happy?

LEGO Batman is rated E10+ (Everyone 10 and older) by the ESRB for Content Descriptors. This game can also be found on: Nintendo DS, PC, PS2, PS3, PSP and Xbox 360.

    I had a funner time playing Indiana Jones Lego than playing Lego Batman. I got bored of the same gameplay, its the same game with different characters.

    Looks like Harry Potter might be the next installment...makes sense, that franchise will be in hyper drive for the next three years starting next summer.
