My brother bought me LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy for my birthday (which was Dec. 28) and we spent quite a bit of time playing it over the last couple days before he went back to Red Deer. I think I am hooked! I never played the original LEGO Star Wars game, but I almost want to go and buy it now. The concept always sounded kinda funny to me, but now that I’ve played the game, my laughter has been replaced with awe. The game is simple yet incredibly fun to play!
I was browsing around Wikipedia today, looking for information on the LEGO games, and I found this:
LEGO Batman is an adventure video game developed by Traveller’s Tales. It will be similar to the LEGO Star Wars series, in that it will both be a game based on a licensed property and have environments, objects and creatures made out of LEGO.
Awesome! That was the first thing I thought of while playing LEGO Star Wars – I thought, “they should make lots of LEGO games!” It’s such a wonderful environment for fun, light gaming.
Seems they are way ahead of me:
Upon being contacted, developer Jonathan Smith (games programmer) stated that they will definitely be developing more LEGO games in the future.
I don’t know what they have in mind, but I can think of some LEGO games I’d like to see! Here’s the movies/franchises I’d like to see turned into LEGO video games:
- The Matrix
- Lord of the Rings
- Harry Potter (LEGO already has the rights to this one…)
- Spider-Man
One of my favorite toys as a kid was LEGO. My brother, sister and I played with it all the time! It’s almost too perfect that LEGO is now playable on my new favorite toy, my Xbox 360.

My boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend is not a gamer, however I got her hooked on LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy and now she demands that I wait until we get together again for us to advance together in the storyline. Hee hee. 😀 It’s a great game. V. fun and beginner-friendly too.
Yeah it’s a great game to just pick up and start playing…even if you aren’t a gamer!
I love Lego Star Wars II! This is a great concept, combining Legos with video games, and it’s fantastic for casual gamers. I think The Matrix would be great in this format.
