Here we are in beautiful LEGO City, starring ace cop Chase McCain. At last, the fan-favorite LEGO City series is introduced in what seems to be the best LEGO game to date. Do you like movies? Do you like building blocks? Do you like humor? Well, put those things together and you get the incredibly charming game that is LEGO City: Undercover. This is a good one fellas, read on.
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).
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
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 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.
Game is amazing. Are there any other Lego games like it? The other ones I played were nowhere nearly as good.
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
Two games are leaving Xbox Game Pass before the end of January: LEGO City Undercover and Just Cause 3. If you’re interested in playing them, now is your chance!
I actually can't wait to play this. I did a coop playthrough for my channel with my wife for LEGO Batman 2 and it was a blast. People would be surprised how fun the LEGO games are, especially for coop.
I always though that Lego games were for kids, but I was wrong. I am looking forward to this game so badly. I really hope that in the end, I will agree with your score.
great job guys!
I am fine with lego games and all, but seriously Nintendo has to step it up. I do not think this game will be enough to sell systems.
and besides, is this game going to remain exclusive, or will it end up going multi ?
with the other next gen systems almost out, the pressure is on Nintendo.
That said, Nintendo has lots of talent and cash, thus i still believe that they can pull it off. Also, eventhough I admit that I am a bit tired of nintendo relying almost exclusively on first party support, I persoanlly want them to succeed.
