undeadpool Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) i love and adore LEGO games and this one looks to be the best of the best, with characters like Sinestro and Cyborg, a free roam Gotham City, voice actors and much much more! anyone else as excited as i am for this game?oh and just the fact that they made Black Adam, Gorilla Grodd, Captain Cold, Black Manta and Bizarro DLC is the icing on the cake!EDIT: some Arkham City inspired renders for the game, as well as the DLC info Edited May 28, 2014 by undeadpool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Now this I'm JAZZED for! I also heard/read Flash is going to be a playable character. Been looking for a fun multiplayer DC game ever since XBOX's Justice League Heroes (which unfortunately has HUGE lagtime during gameplay on the 360). When is the release date for this? Think I'll trade in some Kinect games to gamestop so I can get the villains pack. Thanks for the heads up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) no problem release is June 19th for the US as KostisFire mentioned above and yes the Flash is playable and i believe they said he can run through solid brick destroying it and collecting studs Edited May 22, 2012 by undeadpool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Pre-ordered with Gamestop instead, you get a Lex Luthor Powersuit minifigure. Kind of annoying that these character packs only just got announced, but i assume they'll be purchase DLC later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 There's talk that there will also be bundles for Wii and DS that'll have GITD Batman and Joker Pop! figures included. I'm saving myself for those probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 .....sigh....I'm so tired of DLC....... just makes the already expensive games even more expensive. Plus that stuff is probably already on the disc. Still gonna get it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I'm pre-ordering at Gamestop for this one. First time EVER pre-ordering a game. And why? Because I want that Lex Luthor Power Armor minifigure that's why. It's awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 so the second someone confirms that the DLC characters are already available in-game, please tell me im deciding how to handle my purchase and whether to get it on PS3 or PC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawcanada Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I am certainly considering it (especially for the exclusive Lex minifig), but due to my suvear dislike of Batman I'm more interested in playing as the other DC heroes, i.e. Superman, The Flash, Green Lantern and Aquaman. Unless of course they put in The Gold and Blue, who are IMO WAAAAAAAY more awesome than Batman and deserve about 75% of the books he got in The New 52; hell they should be the star of this game.

Punisher Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 What I assume is the game's opening cinematic: Not sure how I feel about voice actors - the use of actions rather than words were what made the other games so charming, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minivenom Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I always liked the silent characters, but I must admit I'm enjoying the Joker so far. I have the game preordered for 360 at Gamestop, and am thinking about getting it for Vita as well, but haven't decided just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Joker and Lex are fantastic. Lex is the old Lex voice, yes? Can't say much for the "plot," but i like that we get more story than hand gestures. And...shiny black objects? So it's the Oddly Specific, Poorly Conceived Object Deconstructor?

jcastick Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) I checked EB's website (which really is just Gamestop's)...and there is no mention of DLC Character packs...just the Lex minifigure for pre-order. Appears Amazon has the Heroes pack. Edited May 24, 2012 by jcastick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I'm very happy that the game comes out right after I finish my exams. This summer is gonna be sweet. Awesome games,awesome mates and the premiere of my Minimate web series!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless of course they put in The Gold and Blue, who are IMO WAAAAAAAY more awesome than Batman and deserve about 75% of the books he got in The New 52; hell they should be the star of this game. Personal vendetta much?? Yeah a little... I don't get the appeal of Batman personally. I never got the whole "No Powers > Powers" argument and besides, Ted has no powers, is as intelligent as Bruce (if not more) and from what I read actually has a likeable personality. I am also a fan of web critic Linkara and he's reviewed quite a few comics where the rest of the DCU is made to look like amateurs to make Batman more awesome by comparison (JLA Act of God springs to mind). Considering as how Kyle Rayner got me into DC and I have developed a huge amount of respect for Superman, seeing both of them portrayed as being so mentally unstable they couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag and everyone else is praising how awesome Batman is because he lacks powers. The book was meant to promote power-less heroes but just seemed like a love letter to Batman as Steel, a powerless hero is killed and Ted and Ray, two other powerless/minimal tech heroes are captured and tortured (Booster is also tortured as well). I don't like it when people try to force me to like something (i.e. I MUST like Batman becasue he is dark and boording and lacks powers but still manages to do more than all the JLA could combined; really pushes the limit on no powers IMO) and I just happen to prefer other DC heroes, so, like I said, seeing Batman curb stomp them (again, the way he does it at times makes it sound like he's activated the God Mode cheat) frustrates me even more. I know thee are some comics where, for example, he's stated he can only stall Superman and never truly beat him (i.e. showing some respect for the man of steel) and I know his current comics get high scores almost all the time suggesting I'd probably enjoy them if I gave them a try, but I just can't. I find the way he's portrayed (i.e. God Batman) to un-appealing. IMO Superman may be powerful but I have seen more stories where he is someone I can relate to as a person; I have yet to see that with Batman. As for Booster Gold, his post 52 run was extreamly well done and one of the books I sorely miss in the new 52. The fact Batman has about 10 - 12 books is salt in the wound as I just don't find him awesome. But then again I must be a freak as I never Kang to get made as a minimate Edited May 24, 2012 by pawcanada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minivenom Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Batman is the awesomeist! Just something about the whole "I don't have super powers but I can kick everybody's butt" thing that really appeals to me. Hahaha! But seriously, not every hero is for everybody. If I had a copy of the comic where Wonder Woman is crushing Batman's face under her boot on the cover I'd send it to ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatcow Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 The handheld versions aren't open world, so I guess to compensate for that part of the game being eliminated they are adding more characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked a guy who played it at e3 and uploaded some gameplay and he said that the vita version has free roaming.The 3ds version isn't open world though. EDIT:it says the same on gamestop.
