I was a bit worried about that EDGE review, but the game isn't that bad.

 

[Rootbeer]

oh ok then, thats a pretty ass backwards way of doing a preorder bonus lol

I agree, it's not a good way to ensure people follow through on their pre-order. but it is a good way to spread awareness of the game since lots of people will buy the figure

anyway i found the figure where target keeps all the PSN and XBL gift cards and stuff. You'll find interesting things there sometimes

Yeah, EDGE gave Lego LotR a 6. I'd generally ignore them on this sort of thing.

Really? Lego LotR is way better than a 6....

 

[Bombadil]

I guess the other Edge review thread for this game was a little premature. There was a lot of bashing going on there.

 

[Kazerei]

Pretty good scores. Lego games are usually kinda middle-of-the-road, but they're so fun anyways.

Thanks in advance for beta testing, Wii U owners!

You are welcome

 

[Frodo]

Good reviews overall...

Anyway, can't see how a game that allows you to ride a Lego T-Rex skeleton could be bad.

 

[friskykillface]

pretty good reviews scores so far, i usually like the lego games so i figured it was like that.

but the load times are a :/ bummer to hear.

 

[hatchx]

I think I might skip this based on the load time complaints.

I'll wait to see if it's better when downloaded from eshop or if there are patches.

 

[Cidd]

Seems good to me, Wii U owners got a nice little hit on their hands.

 

[KillerTravis]

The load times are a bummer, but since this is not a game were you spend most of the time on menus I don't expect them to be that frequent.

Thanks in advance for beta testing, Wii U owners!

You jelly?

 

[PAULINK]

Wow, I definitely wasn't keeping my eyes on this game due to not really liking the lego series of games but that free roaming looks pretty appealing. And that corny humor looks right up my alley . Will definitely try and pick this game up eventually.

I'm also wondering if the load times are improved if running an eShop build vs. a disc. That could sway my purchase choice if there are noticeable improvements.

New trailer for those interested. Posted it already in the OT.

I was about to say something about how surprising it was to see a good Wii U game. But it's equally surprising to see a Wii U game.

You know what sucks? The fact that your statement is 100% true.

No Sessler review?

 

[Christberg]

8.2 from CVG

 

[EvilMario]

I really enjoy some of the videos / reviews (aside from those load times) coming out for the game, but it's still too much of a LEGO game to get excited about. I wish building was something more than pressing and holding A. Incorporating the touch screen into the building process, or something. Hearing a lot of people comment on the boring gameplay is enough to keep me away until I can find it on the cheap.
