- Lots of funI'm a huge Indiana Jones fan, and my son got me interested in the Lego video games with Star Wars. This game met all my expectations, I set up my own profile to play after he went to bed. My son is 5, by the way, and found the game challenging but a lot of fun.
PROS: Action was fun, but not hair-pulling hard. Some of the secret treasures are so well-hidden that a Walkthrough was needed, but there are plenty on the Internet....but figuring them out is really rewarding. Animations and sounds are good. Took me a few weeks to finish everything, so a good value in my mind.
CONS: The only bug I had with the Wii version was that sometimes a character with a gun would just start shooting when the B button (trigger) was not touched in any way. Happened with both controllers, so not a sticky button. I learned to quickly switch characters so I didn't waste ammo when this happened. Also, it's shorter than Star Wars, naturally, since it's only 3 movies and not 6. But the chapters tend to be longer. There is not as much humor as in the SW series. And there are not too many extras after you finish everything.
THOUGHTS: I originally got this on the PC. Avoid that like the plague. There is far more bunny-hopping in this than in Star Wars, and is impossible with mouse and keyboard. But the Wii controllers make it a cinch. Anyways, lots of fun, buy it!
