LEGO Dimensions: Starter Pack (PS4)

Product Information

The cinematics are beautifully rendered and could be cut together to make an excellent movie with a few small additions. The dialog is excellent too and will delight both children and adults. For instance, at one point Batman is convinced that Scarecrow of Oz is really The Scarecrow from Gotham who must be using his fear toxin to cause everyone to hallucinate. It is important to note that the Batman you play in the game is not the same Batman from The LEGO Movie and there is even a humorous cinematic early on which proves it. expense squared - the high price of Lego married to the high price of the TTL currency. For those of us who are fans of one but not the other that might affect their view of the game's value.

nparker Who's throwing a tantrum? We're sharing our thoughts on the article, apparently people feel differently. You barely mention the gameplay. How varied are the puzzles that require physically moving the pieces? How early do they become a tedium? How many hours of playtime does the game offer? Is it as short as the other Lego games (a handful of hours)? However, the portal is undoubtedly the star of the build and is the most detailed aspect of the set. While it is relatively simple it's still amazing to see a circular object made with angular LEGO pieces. The entire assembly is fitted to the base using a couple of Technic axles so it is very sturdy. I really like the use of light and dark blue along with the gray as it brightens the model nicely and the trans-light blue claws produce an excellent wormhole effect. I took a look and it's beyond my understanding how someone can spend so much money on this. But to each their own. Because of this, if you want to play on a different console, you'll just need the Toy Pad that works with the console you're trying to use. Xbox One and Xbox 360 both use their own specialty toypad, whereas the Wii U, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4 all use the same toypad and can be interchanged at will.A TTL video game uses Near Field Communications (NFC) to read and write digital information to a figure. Most of the games that use this technology involve a "portal" or "gamepad" which can read the information on the figure and transfer it into the game; so one second a figure is just collecting dust on your shelf and the next you are running around new worlds with that character in a video game. It can be quite fun if done properly or extremely frustrating when the product doesn't meet expectations. I can't think of another toy brand that would lend itself better to a TTL game than LEGO and with TT Games, the people behind other amazing LEGO video games such as LEGO Harry Potter and LEGO Jurassic World, responsible for bringing these franchises to life there is little need for trepidation. Box and Contents cheshirecat, If the reviewer found little to criticise, they shouldn't criticise. Criticism for the sake of it is pointless. Did I miss it or was there even any mention of the far far greater cost of Dimensions to other TTL games? If not how can it be washed over so easily?

When LEGO Dimensions was first announced in early 2015 I was excited and nervous in equal measure. There was a new LEGO game coming from TT Games and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it but it became immediately apparent that this game would be a dramatic departure from any of the previous titles. The new game would be a "Toys-to-Life" game (commonly abbreviated to TTL) and I had been burned by TTL games before. Dropping hundreds of dollars into unsatisfying games such as Skylanders and Disney Infinity left me hesitant to see the LEGO name attached to a similar project. However, by the time the announcement trailer ended I knew I had nothing to worry about. LEGO was in good hands and together with TT Games, they were ready to Break the Rules. I'm not going to debate whether LEGO Dimensions is a fair value in general, because really that's a debate about the toys-to-life category in general, a category that I have little firsthand experience with. I sure couldn't tell you why this category of video games has taken off the way it has. Firstly, the article is unashamadly positive about the game. People who are not comfortable with that should not trust a single source when forming their own opinion.This is an amazing review which I really enjoyed reading as I was leaning something new. It completely changed my mind about Lego Dimension. The cinematics are beautifully rendered" - would be true about 10 years ago. Generally speaking, the Lego based games are quite a bit behind technologically. It is true to say this is the best of the Lego based games. Which was not a huge achievement, considering how mediocre (at best) the older releases were. A lot of people, and I mean a lot, seem to see these as overpriced because they are looking at them as just Lego sets. They are not, they are part of a game too. If you're not going to play the game, then these sets are not for you. The price includes more than just the physical Lego because that is what the product is. There is no good judging a set while separating the various elements of the product and complaining that it is too much money for just one element of the set. That would be like me buying an Ikea bookshelf, and complaining that it is overpriced because it costs more than one shelf is worth. The second bag contains the elements used to build the LEGO Gateway. Construction is very straightforward and only took me about twenty minutes. It is broken up into two parts, the first half of which is building the Gateway. The circle in the middle is big enough to place one of the game discs inside and it fits nicely over the circle on the electronic part of the gamepad.
