Finally a game that satisfies the Indiana Jones in all of us, despite the LEGO.
I've briefly played the original LEGO Star Wars f or the Xbox, and found the game to some extent fun, but overly mediocre. What the 3rd DS LEGO adventure brings is all of the same, but in an all-new format.
Story- 6/10
The Story is there, but it's just a little...lacking, to say the least:
If you have never seen the movies (Yah Right!) you will have no idea whats going on, despite some good looking FMV sequences. Lack of Audio hurts ALOT
Sounds- 7/10
The music, including the original William's "Raiders" Theme song has been included, and some new and old remixes are sporadicly included throughout the game as well. Unfortunately, some of the sound effects BITE. Brick noises, a high pitched squeal and others are heard way too much, and can be overly repetitive after a while.
Replay- 8.9/10
Same old "Free Play" after finishing story drill, same old mindless fun.
Also, some minigames included/unlockable as well.
Gameplay- 8/10
Essentially the same as previous LEGO games, still fun if not slightly repetitive and mindless.
Misc. 7/10
Loads of character unlocks, STAR WARS easter eggs, no single cart MP sure sucks, and small, annoying glitches at rare times.
Verdict:
Definitely a good buy if you are a fan or liked the STAR WARS LEGO versions. The platforming is what has been lacking in Indy games for decades, and if not for previous cons an dthe LEGO bit could be the perfect Indy game.
