Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Raiders of the Lost Ark was one of the first movies I remember seeing as a child and it is one of my favorite movies of all time.That being said I was looking forward to a trip down memory lane with this game and I was not disappointed.
First of all let me say that this game is truly fun for all ages.While it may appear to be a kids game at first glance, it's actually a very fun game for grown ups as well.The game has the original Indiana Jones music as heard in the movies.A brilliant touch as it adds to the game tremendously.The lego versions of all Indy characters are well done and very cute.You will find virtually every character from all three Indy movies in this game and you can unlock them all as playable in "free play" mode.
Another area where this game stands out is the humor the designers have put into it.There are so many funny little moments and even some funny homages to Star Wars.The game designers have really done their homework and it shows.
As far as the gameplay...it's what you would expect from a Lego title.Lots of cracking the whip and punching things.While it can get a bit repetitive at times I completely understand why the developers did this.By keeping it simple the game really becomes accessible to gamers of all skill levels....and, in my opinion, that's a smart move on their part.
One of the best things about this game is the co-op mode.My wife never plays games with me on my PS3, ever.We recently saw the new Indy flick at the theater and I convinced her to play this game with me.She loves it!One of the reasons she never plays is because of all the "complicated" controls on the PS3's controller.Back to my point about the game play being simple, the controls are so easy she has no problem playing.There aren't complicated button schemes or an overabundance of complication so she feels comfortable playing and she does not get frustrated.This is one of those games that can be played and enjoyed by the whole family...and it's nice that it's $10 cheaper than most of the other PS3 games.
I gave this game 5 stars.Let me clarify this ranking.
Does this game have graphics as good as Uncharted:Drake's Fortune?No.Does this game have as engrossing a storyline and as diverse gameplay as GTA IV?No.
Does this game accomplish what it sets out to do?Definitely.
I've spent money on many PS3 titles that I did not enjoy nearly as much as this game.Lego Indy sets out to be a cute, nostalgic and simple game based on the Indiana Jones movies that the whole family can enjoy.I believe it has accomplished this in spades.Of course it will not appeal to everyone as hard core gamers are not the target audience but fans of Indy, families and those looking for a fun game will find that Lego Indy is a great time and I highly recommend it.
