Lego Batman 2 Features the Revolutionary Concept of Talking

This reminded me I need to play the first one

Is Batman voiced by Crackdown guy???

I am pro-LEGO people talking.

I want Mark Hamill voiced LEGO Joker.

Where is Mark Hamill when you need him?

Alright, this will be the first LEGO game I ever play. I laughed out loud a few times during this trailer.

Excellent. Now we just need a live action version of all this.

Put in the Arkham Asylum combat system and I'm there.

The ending bit is the only thing I personally found good/funny. Man.......fuck kids and focus testing.

Seems like it'd be really easy for them to put an option in there to turn off voice acting and replace it with the traditional snorts, grunts, and giggles.

That's prettttyyy effin' good.

Is the Riddler voice Jim Carrey? It sounds so much like him.

I really love LEGO Superman's voice, seems like a really fun version of the character.

@HatKing: The story probably would make no sense whatsoever

I'm lovin this anyways Lego games FTW

@Mucklefluga: Probably, but who cares? hahah...

I always hated the mumble and grumble shit in lego games, i for one love that they are adding actual voices and i hope this continues to be a thing in future Lego games, especially the LOTR one.

''We have to stop them...''

''Ya think?''

Hahahahha, man, I love these games. Oddly enough, the addition of voices fits surprisingly well. I was down on the idea, but from sounds like some snappy writing and stellar voice acting, I'm all for this. The original Lego Batman is undoubtedly my favourite of the lot, so hopefully this one will rank pretty close too, if it doesn't top it completely.

Also Rob Paulsen will make for a splendid Riddler.

Nope.

My mate pre-ordered this. I'm so jealous right about now :(

Hah! Get it? Cause he took the money. That actually got a chuckle out of me. The ending too. I did enjoy the pantomiming in the Star Wars games, but this looks enjoyable.

A lot of the voices remind me of the characters in Drawn Togethor

I liked it. It was funny. The timing in the "throwing grumpy Batman in front of the moon" gag was perfect.

I might be back on the LEGO gae bandwagon with this not really played one since star wars

At first I was really against the mini-figs talking. This and the LEGO Lord of the Rings trailer have totally sold me.

Oh hey! That was totally Rob Paulsen, the guy who voiced Yakko on Animaniacs and Raphael on the 90s TMNT cartoon, as The Riddler.

OK, that little bit at the end was pretty good

KAWAII~!!!

I demand a Quick Look.

I think the pantomiming worked really well in Star Wars because it's something most people already know the story too (and younger kids just got a kick out of silly stuff happening). The first Lego Batman tried to tell an original story though and was an incoherent mess.

I guess LoTR having them is arguable, but I like that they're being used here.

None of these are doing anything for me anymore - BRING ON THE UNDERCOVER!

Those abs on Lego Superman are really convincing.

This might bring me back to Lego games... My last was the first Indiana jones one where I just burnt out on the concept but if the game is full of hammy jokes to this caliber, how can I resist?

Looks like it will be fun as the previous Lego Batman game, can't wait.

So that Superman is fucking amazing

Based off the E3 footage this looks like its going to be the best Superman game ever. Despite the low bar that accolade brings up I thought the open-world stuff looked pretty awesome.

@TheSlip: I knew I had heard the voice somewhere long ago, in a cartoon. I couldn't place it! That's awesome.

Hey the guys strong from a funky high from the yellow sun. It's probably his PR that makes him draw that on.

Nope.

His name is Robert Paulsen?

Rob Paulsen as The Riddler? Yes please.

May want to take a gander at this for the partial Animaniacs reunion.

@bio595: Yes, Robert Paulsen's name is Robert Paulsen.

EDIT: Wait, now I think I understand... I was talking about The Riddler's voice actor, not his true identity - which is of course still Edward Nigma. Least I think that's what you were confused about?

I always knew Captain Quark was Superman.

Not cool indeed, Batman.

Superman is such a dick.

It's a Fight Club reference.

Ohhh, well that's somewhat embarrassing. Haven't seen that movie in years.

Damn, I thought I learned that buying these lego games was a waste of money.... but damn if this isn't making me question that.

Also Rob Paulsen is apparently reprising his role as the voice of Not Jim Carrey from the Mask cartoon. I do love Rob Paulsen.

I saw some LEGO LOTR, it had dialogue too. I guess it's the next new step they had to take?
