Indiana Jones and the incredibly boring gaming experience2
Not a very catchy title but it's what they should have called it, it would have given fare warning to all those who have loved the Lego games up till now and forked out £30 thinking it would be a safe bet this would be another great game.

Everything that made the Lego games great is gone or has been changed.

No central hub to keep check of all your levels, you now have boxes in a warehouse they really don't tell you very much about your progress, perhaps a degree in cryptology would help, sadly I don't have one so will just have to have a guess at what I need to do / collect then.

You start each level in a free roaming village / camp / town, you wander aimless round and round trying to find a entrance to the story, once you one you get quick very boring levels, two particular high lights are the level where you drive round the jungle for what seems like hours trying to shoot some phantom cars that never appear while a red arrow directs you in a circle till you get so frustrated you throw the controller at the cat and the level where you have to stick cones on top of holes, and repeat, and repeat, and repeat, and repeat till you decide it would be more fun to clean the toilet.

Once you complete these tedious levels can you go back in and free play (the best feature of the Lego games), no you can't you can repeat the level with same characters but no free play fun and when the levels are this dull why would you want to repeat them and get a better time?!

Press continue story and you don't continue the story, you will get thrown back to the village / camp / town and spend another 15 minutes (if you're lucky) wandering round trying to find the next door to the next level.

There are some bonus levels you can unlock in the free roam village / town's, but you have to have the correct characters to play them, which you can't buy from a central shop anymore so you can't instantly play these in a free play style, you will now have to wander round the village / town for hours trying to find the right person or item then go back in and find you've only got one character right so set off again to find the next one. It's so tedious that at one point while wandering round for hours trying to find a shovel I actually nodded off, I've played some rubbish games before but I've never come across one that actually bores you to sleep.

They've also managed to ruin the two player aspect, you used to be able to play together as a team now the second you stray a few paces away from your friend the screen splits into two tiny triangles so you can't see a thing and end up just doing your own thing in your triangle.

All in all one of the most frustrating, boring and confusing gaming experiences I've ever had, which is made even worst by the fact that all the other Lego games are amazing.

I've really been looking forward to Harry Potter Lego in 2010, but if it's anything like just Id rather watch paint dry thanks.

Where is the guy with the bazooka / spade / fish / ID?2
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, what a frustrating disappointment, I own all the other Lego games and just because the mother in law was coming over I went to blockbuster and rented this one and I am very pleased I did, it is terrible, all of the things that made the others fantastic has gone. You play through the story and then have to return to the island in a kind of free play mode, where you randomly stumble across "mini tasks" that take 20 minutes to find and then 2 minutes to complete. You can no longer purchase the characters you need, you need to find the "mini game" that the character is hiding behind, then 10 of the character come out of the cave, hole, cliff, whatever, you beat them up, then you can buy them, if you have enough "cash". The problem is they wander off, so when you do at last find another puzzle to solve, the game tells you, "you need a character with an ID and a charater with a skull and a green fish to complete this puzzle". You then spend 10 minutes trying to find aforesaid characters, give up, jump in a plane, fly around to try and find them, find one and then become that character, walk / swim / jump back to plane try and find second character, find them, try and get character 2 to follow you after 25 minutes you have forgotten where the puzzle was! Come on!

On the plus side if you want to keep the kids busy for 3 months then this game will do it, be warned though they will also be bored senseless, driving round the jungle running over every single bush trying to get enough coins!

Must try harder.

so much better than the first one!!!4
from the moment i discovered lego star wars i was hooked and from then on i eagerly anticipated the next lego installments. however when lego indiana jones 1 came out i was afraid i had made a terrible mistake! it was lacking everything that made lego star wars so fun and engaging. i tried and tried to like it, playing it over and over again until i finally admitted defeat and put it away. as soon as lego batman came out i bought it, hoping that they had exorcised their indiana demons and come good again, thankfully they had and lego batman was also fun and playable.
when i found out there was to be a second installment of indiana i shrugged and refused to get excited. normally, as there are very few games i really want, when one comes out i instantly buy it. however, with ratchett and clank coming out and a couple of others i couldnt justify the expense of a game i was sure i wouldnt like. i went to the video store tonight and saw they had this game to rent, i figured i may as well rent it, just to show myself that i was right and it was awful before i could forget all about it. im so glad i rented it and will be buying it as soon as the rental period is up, its awesome :D !!!
all the playability and fun from star wars is back. it is easy to navigate, easy to control, the puzzles are slightly tricky and totally engaging and it is just a far superior game to the first one. if you tried the first one and hated it then you totally need to give it another try and even if you thought batman wasnt too good, try this one anyway as its probably even a bit better than that (although, obviously it cant surpass star wars :D).
im so pleased that the lego games have got back on track and cant wait for many more :D
