Annoying! February 27, 2010 Booknose I have been a patriot of the previous Film base Lego games but this was a huge disappointment!
They've completely changed the system from the old one, Instead of a home where you can access the levels using doors (starwars) vehicles (batman) or maps (old Lego Indie) which you can wander around in, and have a single simple place to pay for the things you have collected, Each film has it's own world which you can wander around, and it's here that you collect red (and now green and blue) bricks by hitting say 10 things, no searching for things, or secret areas. The levels are shorter and there is now no free play, so you can play as whichever character you want, instead theres mini games which you require certain people for (e.g 'You need a spear to complete this level'). Because you wander around it's less clear how much of the 'film' you have completed, and you have to find the things you want or need to buy, or change into (no using the L1 and R1 buttons anymore! :-( )
All of these things makes this new game a HUGE disappointment, I haven't used the level creater but it doesn't look brilliant and probably takes a long time to master. The use of PSN would make it better for people with siblings but that's to be expected with the upgrade to the PS3 system.
If you haven't played the old games you may still enjoy this game, the actual way to play the game is the same, and it was vastly enjoyable in the old games after all, but you are much better off with the old PS2 games.
Not at all good for younger players. January 24, 2010 Xrissy (England) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This series has always been a hit with my now-seven-year-old, but with this chapter it has stopped. Confusing level design, horrendous difficulty spikes and the most uncontrollable vehicles you've ever seen. Coupled with the removal of a central hub this has become a bewildering, charmless mess with so little user-friendliness it's virtually begging you not to play it.
Do not buy this game for under-tens, even if (or especially if) they loved the prequel, or the Star Wars episodes. And if you're over ten there's much better games to spend your money on. My son and I are very disappointed.

Redressing the balance January 13, 2010 McP (London) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
It's rare that I'm moved to write a review - but with such a low score for such an excellent game I thought this needed redressing.
My wife and I have played all of the lego games, and reading the reviews on here I was against getting this one, but my wife persisted and I'm glad she did as bar Star Wars this is the best in the series so far (and far superior to the previous Indy outing).
Rather than the complaint that the split screen ruins co-operative play, it's a brilliant move forward, as all previous versions meant that one character moving too far from the other could drag you along with them and make you die if you then fell off a platform, now you can move around with complete freedom, knowing that you're not going to accidentally kill your partner.
The complaint that there's no central hub and that it's not obvious what your achievement is, is ridiculous the 'boxes in the warehouse' show you which sub-games have been completed, whether you've achieved True Adventurer on them or not, along with the characters unlocked in that section, the special bricks found, and the percentage acheived - there's never been so much information.
Yes the hub is different but there's now effectively two hubs - the warehouse where you choose which section to enter, and the 'village / camp / town' (or where-ever depending on the section you're completing), which is more akin the hubs of old - where you can enter the game that you want to, while at the same time these are areas where you can solve puzzles, complete races etc. in their own right, making the experience more interactive - if anything the old hubs were far more pointless, as while they offered the opportunity to pick up a few studs, they were mainly areas that you had to wander through to find the level that you wanted - now there's so much more to do in the area.
It's true that you can't just buy the character anymore, and you have to unlock them before you can buy them - but to me this makes it more part of the game that you do have to work to get them, so get more of a sense of acheivement - if you want to get the characters easily then I'm sure you can just go online and find some cheat codes for them - but to me it's far more fun and fulfilling to unlock them in extra tasks.
If you want to replay the same section but with different characters you can do - it's just not called that anymore.
In the level creator you can select the level, keep or change the objective of the level (so change it to finding an anubis statue instead of the ark of the covenant or so on), and then select the characters you want to include - so when you play it you get the characters that you chose, plus the original characters you would initially have played it with.
What this game offers right the way through is a level of interactivity that we haven't seen before - apart from the warehouse hub everything is part of the game and part of the experience - there's never been quite so much to do.
There are obviously changes in this game to the formats we've been used to in the previous lego games - but for me these are all for the better.

I appreciate games do have to move on, but this is a classic example of "don't try mending something that isn't broken".....I think the first Indy Lego was the weakest of all the lego games, especially in comparison to SW and the fantastic Batman, but this Indy is even worse....
The game has no central hub and once completed in story mode takes an eternity to add any extra percentage complete onto it....you cannot change at will into the character you want, instead hunting around for ages looking for that dude with the bazooka. The vehicle levels are even worse...there is more control in real life on snow and ice to be honest! the extras cost a small fortune so you can unlock them but never seem to be able to buy them...
any I'm bored of this game now and about to move onto a new one, which is rare I usually finish all the games I have, but I'd thought I would warn people against buying this - if you don't have it buy Lego Batman instead, even if you are not a Batman fan....
Just to add, baed on this i certainly will nt be buying Harry Potter Lego either....
