shuandrew | April 02, 2008 | News | PC Playstation 2 
With the massive success of LEGO videogames in recent year, particularly those based on franchises in other media, ICGamers discusses 5 superheroes that are begging for a similar makeover.
With Traveller’s Tales confirmation of LEGO Indiana Jones’ release date confirmed today, and with LEGO Batman also in the pipeline, it got us here at Nintendic thinking about what other famous comic book characters are would be deserving of a plasticised makeover before being thrust back onto the videogames market. It’s not as if the ingredients for a potential smash hit aren’t already there in the majority of cases, so join us as we pick five of the best-known superheroes around argue their cases for future LEGO transformations.

    What's wrong with the world? Why are so many LEGO games being made? Am I the only one who thinks these games are crap?

      It's much the same as the company that makes all of those jewel-case only knockoffs of Bejeweled and board game simulators to sell in department stores and office supply stores. And educational software for young children. It doesn't actually matter whether it's good or not- people will buy it.

    Lego Star Wars was totally worth the development costs for Han Solo's facial expressions alone.
