Lego City Undercover review - The Gaming Vault

Connor White says: "A cracking script and moments of bliss in freedom can’t hide an ultimately mundane title, which is what the colourful Lego product should never be.

It’s just a really boring game."

oh dang, even i didn't expect to see a score this low for the game

krazykombatant4037d ago

Shit review really game is a solid 7-8

LKHGFDSA4037d ago

and people were listing this as an exclusive wii u title worth bragging about.

MasterCornholio4037d ago

The game might not be the killer AAA exclusive that the Wii U needs but it isn't a bad game. I'm not really into Lego games but the majority of critics say that this game is pretty good.

It has the exact same Metacritic score as God of War: Ascension. So you're implying that God of War: Ascension isn't an exclusive PS3 title worth bragging about?

SpiralTear4037d ago

Please don't bring Metacritic into this argument. Please...just don't.

Kran4037d ago

Oh come on. The game isn't THIS bad. I'm enjoying it, and im 20... :/

mcstorm4037d ago

I have to agree I am enjoying this game when I can get on it as my other half is hooked and im 28 and she is 23.

I've only seen this review and one more give the game a low score the rest have been 8 to 9 out of 10 which I think it is.

I hope this game sells well as this could be made as the Nintendo gta game.

there way to harsh on wii u games, they added a tablet (another way to play) this game has more features technically than ps3/360 versions.

LEGO City Undercover dev says the team wanted to avoid making a GTA game, scrapped zombie mechanic

LEGO City Undercover may feature an open world, but it’s not overly comparable to Grand Theft Auto. It turns out that this was intentional.

worst justification EVER! it's a LEGO game...you know, where your imagination is the limit, but they limited the game mechanic for as hard as they can. don't get me wrong, I like the game, Platinumed it on the PS4 BUT the game has so much potential but they also put so many restrictions into the game, I feel all the time I should be able to do something but the devs decided that I can't.

oh and yes...the draw distance SUCKS in this game even on PS4. I can understand if it's ground-up made for the new-gen but this is a Wii U port, the PS4 should have no problem running rounds around this game but the devs just didn't care. tons of collectibles but most of the time, hampered by the terrible draw distance and texture pop-ins. and not to forget constant crashing, glitches, collectibles not registering, and trophy glitch...very frustrating! I had to do a 2nd run just to Platinum this thing due to the story trophy glitch! My advice, if you are gonna play this game co-op, the drop-in drop-out nature of the game will make you lose you chance for story trophies if you're not there from start to finish. the way the story mission is not setup properly to chapters is also annoying as hell.

Either you can't read or you really do think that you should be able to shoot people with guns in a LEGO game since that is the game mechanic that "they limited." Perhaps use your imagination next time and imagine that you are shooting people with guns GTA style in a LEGO game.

LEGO City Undercover is an amazing game and one of the best in both LEGO games and games on the WiiU (except for the load times).

badz149976d ago

There is a ray gun in the game and it can shoot anything to make things explode. I don't remember much but you can shoot people with ray hun too, right? Lego Marvel super hero and batman 2 are way superior than this game

ToddlerBrain977d ago

Lego zombies would have been amazing.

ElementsUnknown976d ago (Edited 976d ago )

Where is the sequel for this game?! So many believe this is the best lego game yet there has been no follow up. Did LCU not sell well? Are the licensed games more profitable? What gives?

LEGO City Undercover devs talk Nintendo's role on the game, company was "very, very involved"

LEGO City Undercover was a pretty big deal when it first appeared on Wii U close to a decade ago. It was planned as one of the system’s first major games, and was even published by Nintendo.

Still my favorite Lego game. Minus the load times. Yikes. Lol

Germaximus985d ago

Game is amazing. Are there any other Lego games like it? The other ones I played were nowhere nearly as good.

badz149984d ago

They purposely put restrictions on your movements for the sake of collectibles. I still think that LEGO Batman 2 and Lego Marvel Superheroes are the best ones
