    Lego takes you to the movies again, and it's still fun. 0

    Lego Indiana Jones places you in an isometric world of Lego characters modeled after the first 3 Indiana Jones films. We've seen this kind of thing before in Lego Star Wars, but it still manages to be fun, and co-op makes it even better. What's good: Kill moves are adorable. I know doesn't sound right, but seeing a little Lego guy do a deady drop kick, or hand out leathal "nuggies" is just great. The characters have more style in general in this game (compared to the Star Wars games) with the w...

    Grab your hat and whip, you're in for a fun time! 0

    Indiana Jones is the second franchise that Traveller's Tales are bringing in to the world of Lego gaming, the first being Star Wars. The fact that Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures was released closely to the new Spielberg film - Kingdom of the Crystal Skull - is purely to get sales from the hype, as you will see no mention of an older Harrison Ford and his sidekick Mutt here, but instead playing through the first three original films.The main hub area is Barnett College (acting much l...

    Disappointing omissions beside, better than LEGO Star Wars. 0

    LEGO Indiana Jones is the third LEGO game made by UK based Traveller's Tales. After wearing out the Star Wars franchise with three games based on the films, it was time to move on to Lucasfilm's other big film franchise; Indiana Jones. Is it as fun as that galaxy far, far away? Or does it make that galaxy look like nothing?LEGO Indiana Jones follows the events of the original three films; that's right folks, no Crystal Skull here. It's a bit of a shame that the developers didn't go that extra mi...

    fun game 0

    After Lucus’s most beloved sci-fi characters turn Lego, travelers tale now turn Lucus’s other beloved series, Indeana Jones, and turns it into Lego form. Trading light sabors and blasters with Wips, bere hands, and pistol, what does Lego Indeana Jones have to offer? Like Lego Star Wars, Lego Indeana Jones re-tells the trilogy of the movies with no diolog what so ever, with Lego slap stick humor, and that’s about it. Lego Indeana Jones has the same gameplay as the Lego Star Wars games. You go to ...

    4th time's the fail? 0

    Well, I finished playing this game, and I have got to say, it is a fun game for a while. At first, playing as Indy and his friends/enemies make the game more exciting, as I constantly try to find all the mail and get as much studs to unlock as many characters as possible.However, after getting to the 2nd map, I realize that I am playing nothing more then Lego Star Wars, just replace Star Wars with Indiana Jones. The game is fun, and there is a little difference for good (camera control was sligh...

    Not another WWII game! 0

    One of my first memories I have is watching Nzis faces melt. So, when I first heard they were making a Lego Indiana Jones I was excitied. I never really got into the Lego Star Wars so the formulla was still fresh to me.The game play is simple, it doesn't do anything new, and it doesn't do anything spectacular. The whip mechanic is a little weak, and the fighting can all be done without it. All of the Nazi symbols have been taken out of the game, along with the pulling out of the heart, and the f...

    One of the funnest games I've ever played 0

    This is a great game for kids and adults.  It's violent, but in a "cute" way.  It's funny and just plain fun.  You don't have to worry about dying (if you lose your hearts you DO lose some valuable studs, though, which you need to buy various things like characters and special abilities or advance to 100% in the game) and you can just have a lot of fun with it.  After you complete the story mode it unlocks "free play" mode which lets you play with all different sorts of characters that you could...

    Lego Indians Jones: The Original Adventures (X360) Review 0

    There's something about Lego that never really grows old. You could have been given your first Lego set at 5 years old, and 20 years later still feel inclined to play with it. I remember going home about 5 years after I had moved out and finding my box of Legos that I had last played with when I was about 11. There was a knife in there that I spent about 4 hours on trying to make it look as realistic as possible. At the bottom of the box, another unfinished masterpiece that I believe was going...

     Take the Lego Star Wars treatment to the pre-raped Indiana Jones movie trilogy and what do you have?Gold. Duh.I am well-known to love me some Star Wars games, having adored BOTH Star Wars games on the 360 to date. Lego Indiana continues the series with a game that is easy enough for young kids to complete, but with the usual insane amount of depth for the more hardcore of players. You have the usual categories of characters --- some can jump high and scream, some are small, some have wea...

    Crack the whip - Indy is back! 0

      The Lego format first started to really take off with Lego Star Wars although other Lego games preceded it dating back to the N64 & Playstation days. The developer Traveller’s Tales had it pretty easy with Lego Indy this time around combining the winning Lego formula with Indiana Jones. Both Lego Star Wars and Lego Indiana Jones are action-platformers with puzzle elements. Both amazed gamers and provided them with a much needed trip down memory lane. You not only get the chance to play as ...

    Here We Go! 0

    Right off the bat I have to say this LEGO game is probably the best I've yet played and nearest and dearest to my heart. I've been a huge fan of the movie franchise since I was a kid and all of that I must confess, I'm sure adds to the charm of this game. The game offers all the fun scenes, locations, and characters from the movies that (for most players) is something we're all familiar with. One of the best part is the locations are expanded upon (much like LEGO Star Wars) and give the player a...

    Lego Indiana Jones - family fun 0

    This is the best co-op game I've played with my son (he's 7 years old). We've completed the main story line in 4 or 5 play sessions, but we're still going to back to find some more hidden stuff, unlock new characters, and generally have fun smashing lego bricks.In terms of the Lego series, we strongly preferred the Indiana Jones environments, it's just more colorful and interesting than the sterile Star Wars spaceship scenery. Before playing through, we watched the first 3 movies on DVD, I think...

    LEGO Indiana Jones was the second movie adaptation LEGO game subseries since LEGO Star Wars. And it felt really fitting at the time to make a LEGO game based on this beloved film franchise. Unfortunately, the LEGO games were the only Indiana Jones games we got on the Xbox 360. But did they hold up well?

    Lego my Indy 0

    This is a fun and cute game.   I didn't like it as much as I liked Lego Star Wars, but it still holds its own.  The Puzzles are pretty easy, but still interesting.  The way the worked around some of the violence in the movies to make it game appropriate is interesting and funny.   This is a game that is entertaining and if you are an Indiana Jones fan you will enjoy it....

    Take one part "Lego" formula, add two parts Indiana Jones. 0

    So, Lego Indiana Jones is from the makers of Lego Star Wars. As you might expect, there's nothing new here, same Lego formula from the Lego Star Wars series replaced with Indiana Jones. Pros Colorful and humorous. Legos. Covers the original 3 movies. Cons Same old Lego game. Nothing new, which is disappointing. You can cheat from the get-go. Somewhat boring if you are playing by yourself. GameplaySo, you can jump, attack, change characters, and "use" objects. That's it, the controls are very ...

    Lego Indiana Jones is the best Lego game yet. 0

    I came in with low expectations for Lego Indiana Jones. Thankfully, I was pleasantly surprised, as this game is fun that anybody, no matter what age, can enjoy.The clean, cute look of the Lego Star Wars games is here, albeit with less sci-fi and more adventure. The environments are all either recreated or influenced by a scene in the original trilogy of Indiana Jones movies. Either way, they are a lot of fun to navigate around in and players can discern specific movie references here and there. ...

L ego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures seems to be the closest I'm going to get for a little while. Having only briefly played Lego Star Wars I didn't know what to expect from Lego Indiana Jones, but after playing the game I'm mostly pleased. From what I've heard about the...

    Glitchy, but still a fun Lego franchise! 0

    I'm a big fan of Lego Star Wars, and also the Indiana Jones trilogy. So naturally, I loved this game. It's quite a bit shorter than Star Wars The Complete Saga for PS3, having three episodes instead of Star Wars' six (all episodes still have six levels apiece). The Good: There's the same cheeky humor that made Lego Star Wars so much fun. There's a slightly different feel to the gameplay with less shooting, more punching and throwing things at your enemy. There isn't any flying, but you can contr...

    Good clean fun 0

    Sure, that gong scene in the Temple of Doom is fun, but you know what I thought when I saw it?  "It would be more fun if Indy was made of Lego and actually riding the gong through a door"If you've played the Lego Star Wars games, you'll have a fair idea about what to expect, it's pretty much exactly the same engine - different characters have different abilities to unlock different areas, you collect special items to build up cool objects, you collect Lego studs to use as currency, etc.  So this...

    Now I could bash this game because its another lego game but I'm not going to. I'm tired of lego games though. They were fun for a while, but now they are all the same. That being said, Lego Indy improved on any bad qualities that the Lego Star Wars had. So here's to a good game, but the same game. 4 out of 5...

    Building Blocks + Classic Movie Trilogies = Good Ol' Family Fun 0

    By now you are probably aware of the Lego phenomenon.  Take one part great movie classic, and introduce one part fun, lovable construction toy.  These games have taken the gaming industry by storm.  Going from “Hey that looks like it might be interesting,” to “What will be the next Lego-ized IP?” (Batman)  The simple fact is, like them or not, Lego games are here to stay.  After the monumental success of the Star Wars games, Indiana Jones was the next logical step.  Who doesn’t love the grail se...

    Great portable game for short bursts of fun! 0

    Quirky humor, great mulitplayer, and good replay value make this a great  portable game for short bursts of fun!  The short levels make it easy to play through a level real quick while you have a few minutes to kill.The cutscenes between the levels are done rather well for the weak graphics available on the DS and are rather humorous.  Although you would have to have seen the movies to really understand what is going on.  Playing with a friend can also be quite fun and helps out quite a bit by g...

    Legos Were Never THIS Much Fun 0

    I always played with legos as a kid, and I have to say that playing the Lego games bring back a lot of those old memories.  I may not be as familiar with the Indiana Jones franchise as the Star Wars franchise, but I have to say I had just as much fun playing this Lego iteration as I did the previous Star Wars ones.Now largely the game play seems to have remained unchanged, and for me that is not a bad thing at all.  That is not to say that the game is perfect.  Because this is just a scaled down...

    Doesn't add much worthwhile to a stale formula 0

    When the first Lego Star Wars game showed up in 2005, it was one of the most surprisingly good licensed games ever made. The charm of the children's toys, the ability to play as a huge variety of action hero characters, the humor – they all combined to make a charming action platformer. If you have played either of the Lego Star Wars games, then for the most part, you have played Lego Indiana Jones. The level design doesn't seem quite as tight this time, and the source material isn't nearly as g...

    No time for love, Doctor Jones 0

    I’m not going to talk about what the game is about or how you control the characters yada yada yada, instead i’m going to cut to my opinion of it directly. I’m around 50% into this game, and yet to play my favorite movie, The Last Crusade. I do so hope Sean Connery is well represented! LEGO Indiana Jones is one of the most directly fun games i’ve played, especially in multiplayer. It appeals to my sense of playfulness, exploration and finding secrets/rewards. It is in my opinion a game that is a...
