The geniuses at Traveller’s Tales have done a great job of Lego-fying everything from Star Wars, to Batman, and beyond. As the Twinfinite Tolkien expert, I jumped at the chance to experience their latest creation. I’ve been a fan of the series and Tolkien’s other works ever since I read them in class in the 4th grade, and I had every intention of being hyper-critical of the tiniest detail. Happily, it surpassed all my expectations. Hit the jump to read about my time in Lego Middle Earth.
The very best LOTR games available right now.
From GameWatcher: "Developer Traveller's Tales is working on a new LEGO video game built using the Unreal Engine, recent job listings on the WB Games career site reveal.
The new LEGO video game will be based on a "major IP" and seems to place a greater emphasis on its online aspects."
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Ever since the advent of full-game downloads on consoles, it seems the market has slowly been shifting towards a digital future where games are delivered through internet connections rather than physical disks. While the convenience this brings is undeniable, and plenty of gamers have embraced having a stuffed memory card in their Vita, there are major pitfalls that are slowly beginning to show, one of which is that games can be delisted without any prior warning, leaving them lost to time unless you bought them before they disappeared."
