Voltex Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Welcome one and all to your one-stop wonder for everything about the Lego Video Games! Whether it be Lego Dimensions, Lego Star Wars, or even that one old Lego Alpha Team web browser game from 2004 - this is your place to talk about it! Let's consider this a bit of a test, hmm? There are some members - and many staff! - that are not convinced that a forum dedicated to Lego Video Games is worth it. For those of you that supported the idea, this is your chance to shine; perhaps if this topic survives and thrives, you can convince the detractors!(or maybe this topic will die quickly and prove them right, but let's hope not) Anyway, because I love you all so much, I've gone ahead and made a big ol' list of every major Lego video game release I can think of (not including any web browser games, nor any Bionicle games, both of which could also be discussed in this topic, I believe) right here: (Here's a list on Wikipedia BTW, with links to articles for most games) LOTS OF GAMES Lego IslandLego Island 2: The Brickster's RevengeLego CreatorLego Creator: Knights' KingdomLego Rock RaidersLego Alpha TeamLego RacersLego Racers 2Island Xtreme StuntsDrome RacersLego BionicleBionicle: Matoran AdventuresBionicle: The GameBionicle: Maze of ShadowsBionicle HeroesLego Knights' KingdomLego BattlesLego Battles: NinjagoLego UniverseLego City UndercoverLego City Undercover: The Chase BeginsLego Legends of Chima OnlineLego Legends of Chima: Laval's JourneyLego Legends of Chima: SpeedorzLego Minifigures OnlineLego Ninjago: NindroidsLego Ninjago: Shadow of RoninLego WorldsLego DimensionsLego Star Wars: The Video GameLego Star Wars II: The Original TrilogyLego Star Wars: The Complete SagaLego Star Wars III: The Clone WarsLego Star Wars: The Force AwakensThe Lego Movie Video GameLego The Lord of the RingsLego The HobbitLego Harry Potter: Years 1-4Lego Harry Potter: Years 5-7Lego Rock BandLego Indiana Jones: The Original AdventuresLego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure ContinuesLego Batman: The VideogameLego Batman 2: DC Super HeroesLego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham AND MANY MORE HOO BOY So I suppose a simple question to get us started: what is your favorite Lego video game?

Lyichir Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 My favorite Lego video game so far is still Lego City Undercover. It's totally hilarious, has great gameplay, and is extremely expansive.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I actually don't own that many non-Bionicle Lego games. I should probably change that in the future. Regardless, my favorite Lego game I own is Lego Star Wars 2 for the Gamecube. I really like the improvements it had over the first one, like the extra challenges, different abilities between characters, and the option to create your own character if you wanted to. Plus, being able to bring in characters from the first game was neat too. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

-Windrider- Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Just a note - this topic is considered official and will serve as a general thread, which means you're free to talk about just about anything, but also that you're equally free to create individual topics for specific games in their respective forums without issue.

It was pretty basic, but a grand old time for familiar players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltex Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Is it easy to find online? I suppose the next question is also whether it would work on Windows 8/8.1/10 or another modern OS. Quote JOIN AETHERGARDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petewa Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 The original Lego Batman was better than its sequel in that there was more content and better humour, as well as easier access to the customizable characters. I would by Lego Batman 3, because space, but I'm saving money for next week, at which point I'll be in Orlando.I also wish that there was a Lego Ninjago videogame available for the major consoles that played out like a normal Lego videogame, and used the voice actors from the show, if any. (although I prefer Ronin's voice actor from Shadow of Ronin over the show's voice actor for the same character, seeing as I feel said actor fits the role better) Quote Mataru Nui, an Interactive Adventure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be easy enough to find. But it's a video game - you have to pay for it. There are the usual pirates who claim to download it in exchange for viruses that will destroy your computer, of course, but I don't recommend those.

You'd need an older model of computer in order to run it, and a Windows XP should probably do the job. So don't throw out that old laptop that you never loved - just swipe the memory off of it and enjoy playing all your ancient Lego games. EDIT: Also, I'm sure there's some programs for running those types of games on newer models, but I don't know what they are or how they work.

Bonkle Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I'm really fond of the games with level builders. (HP1 and IJ2). Those were always a blast. The original Lego Batman was better than its sequel in that there was more content and better humour, as well as easier access to the customizable characters.This. Quote I been away a long time.

EDIT: Also, I'm sure there's some programs for running those types of games on newer models, but I don't know what they are or how they work. I can speak from experience that just keeping an old WinXP machine is the best and easiest option. Virtual machines, VMs are a second best but they're kinda finicky, I've yet to get mine to play nice and share files with my actual system. Linux (and I think Mac, could be wrong) users get Wine, which sometimes-just-maybe-kinda-sorta works for old games, provided you have enough time and patience for kicking the program into doing your bidding. Those are the three options I know of. (BTW, if ANYBODY out there knows how to get Wine to behave, I'd be thrilled to learn how) Quote Avatar by Nicholas Anderson (NickonAquaMagna)My blog: The Jaga's Nest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Well, that's not completely true. There is this lovely little gem if you're not opposed to brick-based violence.

Chronicler06 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 A few months ago, I took advantage of a big sale on Steam to purchase a whole bunch of Lego video games at $5 each, not including DLC (which I also purchased anyway). I passed only on the most recent games simply because they are so recent that the prices have not yet come down enough for me to be willing to get them. (I'll buy them eventually, but not until they cost the same as the older games.) Aside from Steam exclusive LEGO Worlds, here are all of the Lego games currently available on Steam:LEGO Star Wars: The Complete SagaLEGO Star Wars III: The Clone WarsLEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original AdventuresLEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure ContinuesLEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video GameLEGO The Lord of the RingsLEGO The HobbitLEGO Batman: the VideogameLEGO Batman 2: DC Super HeroesLEGO Batman 3: Beyond GothamLEGO Marvel Super HeroesLEGO Marvel's AvengersLEGO Jurassic WorldThe LEGO Movie Videogame So far, I've only played Lego Movie, but I do intend to eventually get around to playing all of these games and reaching 100% completion at least once for each of them. Quote Formerly known as Takanuva's Symbol, I rejoined BZPower on October 10, 2012. These days, I am perhaps best known for my obsession with all Lego video games.
