Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (PS3)

I'm a big fan of the Lego series of video games - they take a popular film franchise (in this case 'Indiana Jones'), and recreate the entire adventure as a comedic puzzler created from (virtual) plastic bricks. As i'm currently waiting for a suggestion to come through for 'Lego Indiana Jones 2', I thought I would revisit the first game, and explain what made it so playable. Indiana Jones was the second outing in video game form for the Lego franchise after 'Lego Star Wars' - and if you've played the latter then you'll know exactly what to expect. The game basically fits in to the adventure / puzzle genre and sees the whip-cracking iconic adventurer battling ...  Read the complete review

This is a great tongue in cheek lego replication of the three classic Indiana Jones original adventures, brought to us by Lucas Arts, the manufacturers of the ingenious Lego star wars. Can be played in 1 player mode or 2 player mode and is fun for all the family enjoying humurous lego moments throughout. Each chapter of the story has 6 levels where Indy embarks on an adventure along with the help of his friends (a total of 60) bringing unique abilities to each level to help him find treasure and artefacts, battle with his enemies and solve puzzles. Each character has the ability to build things, swim, climb and shimmy along rock faces, as well as the ...  Read the complete review

Lego = good. Indiana Jones movies = good. Lego + Indiana Jones movies = absolutely fantastic! I love what Tt Games do with the whole movie-Lego tie in. We saw it with Star Wars, then with Batman and now we get to play with Indiana Jones and a huge cast of supporting Lego actors in this latest addition to the popular franchise. The games closely follow the plots of the original trilogy of movies so scenes will be instantly familiar to anyone who has watched them previously. However, the Lego treatment catapults each of them in a whole new direction, simultaneously managing to be both cute and, in places, absolutely ...  Read the complete review

I purchased this game at full price for my Son's Birthday and paid £32.99 if memory serves me right from shopto.net. I must admit that although it was a gift, I was looking forward to playing it myself a little. The game has fantastic sound and the graphics are superb. The storyline is also very true to the film. My son set about it at a blazingly fast speed, working out puzzles with ease. As the game progresses it obviously gets harder. He got to a stage where there was just no way we could work the puzzle out... so onto www.gamefaqs.com - we found the answer, so a good site for you all to bookmark. Then my son managed to get his character stuck, a ...  Read the complete review

After playing all the star wars lego games I was really looking forward to the release of the Indiana Jones Lego. The game is still fun with loads of references to the Indiana Jones Trilogy, but doesn't quite match the starwars version. The concept is quite easy and my 6 Year old nephew enjoys playing co-op. In each level you can play as 2 different characters and switch between them depending on what you need to do, and throughout the level basically you need to kill baddies, collect lego studs and complete puzzles to get to the end. There is also hidden treasures to collect along the way. You may not be able to do this first time round but the game ...  Read the complete review
