E3 2012 – Nintendo Press Conference: Open-World WiiU Lego Title ‘Lego City’ Gets Trailered

with one comment

One relatively pleasant little surprise at the Nintendo WiiU software presser, was the first real trailer for Lego City, an open-world, third-person crime-busting title set in the Lego Universe.

Combining the usual charming Lego aesthetic and innovative use of the WiiU tablet (in one example, your objectives are transmitted to you through the tablet), Lego Universe was a breath of fresh air of sorts.  The game itself looked like some sort of crazy crossover between the Lego Star Wars/Batman/etc. titles and an open world sandbox game such as GTA.

Have a look at the trailer below and see what you think for yourself:

Lego City is due to release exclusively on WiiU at a date to be announced.

Pre-E3 2012: Lego Lord of the Rings gets it’s first teaser trailer

with one comment

Another year, another Lego license from lego gamesmith Telltale Games – is there really no big epic franchise that is safe from the big plastic blocks of House Lego?  Well, in anycase i’m going to probably buy it anyway because i’m complete sap for the Lord of the Rings license, even though, not so deep down, I know it’s just the typical Lego *Insert License Here* stud collecting gameplay formula but with added Sean Bean death.

Have a look at the teaser trailer below (the blocks speak!):

I’m fully expecting a Lego Marvel title after this.  Maybe.

Lego Lord of the Rings is due to be released in October this year on just about every format ever.
