Anyone else looking forward to this one as much as I am?

Little bit of conjecture between gaming websites whether it's coming to Australia on the 4th or 6th of June '08.

GameSpy: LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures Preview

The game will play out all three Indiana Jones films and has rumored to include parts of the new movie 'Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'
It will be divided into 3 chapters with a total of 18 levels to play through but some memorable scenes from the movie won't be making an appearance.
Kellam Eanes, associate producer of the game has commented that "Scenes like Mola Ram pulling out a heart didn’t really add anything to the overall game experience, but you should still be on the lookout for a Lego twist on that infamous scene." but "The bridge battle from Temple of Doom, boulder chase, and the motorcycle chase will all make it into the game"
Eanes has also confirmed that there will be no vehicle driving in the game, "But just like in the movies, Indy battles bad guys on the tops of moving trucks, trains and on motorcycles," he said.

I'm looking forward to that one and Lego Batman. If they are even close to how good the Star Wars games were then I'll be happy.

Kids? oh, yeah. Yeah, them too

My kids like playing LSW, but the youngest two (being 2 and 3½) don't quite get it. - They're happy to make the people run around in freeplay, but that's about it. They don't get the mission concept yet.
My other kids are 8 and 13. They like it.

As an aside, my 2yo loves anything Daddy is playing (particularly bikes on Motorstorm), just as long as he has a controller to hold too. He also likes "the Soldier one" (Warhawk). My 3½yo daughter doesn't really have much interest either way, tbh.

LEGO games are fantastic and they have the humour parts as well.

Mix in the puzzle sections and it raises the bench mark for game play and enjoyment.

Makes for a good game overall.

I'm at 99.(something)% I have one last character to buy that I didn't realize was there. It was a great game! I can't wait for Lego Batman now.

Ancient_One · 13th June 2008, 01:58 PM

Yeah taking my time as I have the wife playing with me. (no pun intended)

We are 60% through and enjoying it as much as Star Wars.

Yes we to are waiting on the Batman release.

I've got the Wii version and completed 100% last Saturday.

Some of the levels are very long and some of the puzzles made me scratch my head a time or two. A solid 20 to 25 hours minimum of entertainment here. All-in-all, though, I enjoyed this game very much. I was hoping for a special, secret "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" level but, no go.

About ready to fire it up for another play through!
