#Lego batman 2 game villans lost movie#
Given the voice cast we wish they’d just made a new animated movie rather than waste everyone’s time with another rushed video game that wastes its potential and talent just to hit a Christmas release date. playing with a child or non-gamer) but that excuse is rapidly wearing thin. It’s perfectly entertaining in the right circumstances (i.e. A lot of them, like ice or fire beams, are generic but it’s always amusing to see which characters, out of the more than 150 available, get their own unique moves and animations.īut even as DC fans, that already know who most of the C-listers are, we still felt underwhelmed for the majority of the game’s running time. Although some of the characters are returning as well, the background story is entirely new and you get to explore a variety of new environments, all of which are filled with enemies, LEGO pieces and many other curious objects. But beyond the chance to play with someone else in couch co-op the main appeal is the great attention to detail given to the characters and their powers. LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes aims to blend the two universes together and see what comes out, for a second time. Ukrainian STALKER 2 developer GSC Game World urges fans to support defenders amid invasionĪnd yet it is still easy to have fun with the game, especially in the open world environment, which includes multiple DC Comics cities and is filled with the usual side quests, races, and unlockables. The script is often genuinely funny though and it uses many voice actors from the DC animated universe and CW shows, including Mark Hamill as The Joker and, most gloriously of all, Michael Ironside as Darkseid. Every Lego game already has the ability to customise characters, and while they can’t usually become as powerful as this one the character creator tool is essentially the same.Īnd so the story campaign quickly settles into an underwhelming formula where you play as a mix of big name and C-list villains as they fight the regular heroes that are left, before the plot starts to fracture under the weight of cameos being shoehorned into it. The game handles this intrinsic conflict poorly and after spending ages designing your character they quickly end up getting sidelined in the story – not least because they have no dialogue. So on the one hand you’ve got the customisable villain and on the other you’ve got an attempt, similar to Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2, to put the spotlight on characters that never usually feature in video games. However, this conflicts with the fact that the main appeal of Lego games is playing as existing, named characters. It’s a neat use of existing DC lore, as is the main gameplay gimmick: the introduction of a new villain that you can continually customise both visually and in terms of superpowers – the idea being he’s related to existing character Amazo.
