LEGO Dimensions: Starter Pack (PS4)

Product Information

The Aquaman Exclusive is available only at Toys-R-Us and is available on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The cinematics are beautifully rendered" - would be true about 10 years ago. Generally speaking, the Lego based games are quite a bit behind technologically. It is true to say this is the best of the Lego based games. Which was not a huge achievement, considering how mediocre (at best) the older releases were. However, the portal is undoubtedly the star of the build and is the most detailed aspect of the set. While it is relatively simple it's still amazing to see a circular object made with angular LEGO pieces. The entire assembly is fitted to the base using a couple of Technic axles so it is very sturdy. I really like the use of light and dark blue along with the gray as it brightens the model nicely and the trans-light blue claws produce an excellent wormhole effect. Secondly, it is well-known that Lego is expensive (but justified due to quality). It is also well-known that TTL games are expensive (but justified because of... hype? I don't know really - there must be a reason beyond collectable figurines anyway). What we have here is either one of two things: Did I miss it or was there even any mention of the far far greater cost of Dimensions to other TTL games? If not how can it be washed over so easily?

A lot of people, and I mean a lot, seem to see these as overpriced because they are looking at them as just Lego sets. They are not, they are part of a game too. If you're not going to play the game, then these sets are not for you. The price includes more than just the physical Lego because that is what the product is. There is no good judging a set while separating the various elements of the product and complaining that it is too much money for just one element of the set. That would be like me buying an Ikea bookshelf, and complaining that it is overpriced because it costs more than one shelf is worth. cheshirecat, If the reviewer found little to criticise, they shouldn't criticise. Criticism for the sake of it is pointless. Where the game really breaks the rules set by other TTL games is the amount of interaction you have with the portal. You sometimes need to transfer your minifigure between the three sections to complete a task or move about the level to access different areas. The electronic portion of the gateway lights up in several different colors to prompt you as required, brilliantly transcending the digital and physical realms. Overall

More is Better. Bring up to seven minifigures, vehicles and/or gadgets into the game all at once by dropping them on the LEGO® Toy Pad for the most exciting and action-filled game around. I should mention that you need not worry about losing pieces or the minifigures; as long as you still have the disc, the game is playable. The physical LEGO is really just for decoration, but the best kind of decoration of course! The Build Is the wealth of IP a good thing? Or does it make for a diluted experience of trawling through elements you have no interest in? I certainly have no interest in playing through/with a chima or ninjago theme, not really scooby doo. Portal yes, Batman ok, Lego movie perhaps. Lotr no. I and my kids love LEGO star wars, but I wouldn't have wanted to have swapped the Ep4 section for some LEGO atlantis. DanRSL, tantrum is an accurate description for a small rant based on unreasonable expectations of a review- cheshirecat missed the point of a review and did just that. This is an amazing review which I really enjoyed reading as I was leaning something new. It completely changed my mind about Lego Dimension.The second bag contains the elements used to build the LEGO Gateway. Construction is very straightforward and only took me about twenty minutes. It is broken up into two parts, the first half of which is building the Gateway. The circle in the middle is big enough to place one of the game discs inside and it fits nicely over the circle on the electronic part of the gamepad. Firstly, the article is unashamadly positive about the game. People who are not comfortable with that should not trust a single source when forming their own opinion. expense halved - the increase to the price of a Lego set, or the increase to a TTL game results in an overall experience that is greater than the sum of its parts. To those of us who like the TTL and Lego convergence this is a no brainer. The sheer number of popular franchises found in one place might seem overwhelming to some but being able to send Gimli the Dwarf riding a Velociraptor through Springfield was a major selling point for me. Even if you don't love all the properties included in the game there are sure to be one or two that catch your eye. One of the most compelling aspects of LEGO Dimensions is the ability to combine all of the characters from every franchise in the main story. This is possible in other TTL video games but only outside of the main story which has been one of my biggest complaints about those games. Let creativity be the guide to a building and gaming adventure – journey through unexpected worlds and team-up with unlikely allies on the quest to defeat the evil Lord Vortech. Play with different minifigures from different worlds together in one LEGO videogame, and use each other’s vehicles and gadgets in a way never before possible. LEGO® Bad Cop™ driving the DeLorean Time Machine…why not?! The LEGO® Ninjago™ Masters of Spinjitsu fighting alongside Wonder Woman™...yes, please! Get ready to break the rules, because the only rule with LEGO Dimensions is that there are no rules.

When LEGO Dimensions was first announced in early 2015 I was excited and nervous in equal measure. There was a new LEGO game coming from TT Games and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it but it became immediately apparent that this game would be a dramatic departure from any of the previous titles. The new game would be a "Toys-to-Life" game (commonly abbreviated to TTL) and I had been burned by TTL games before. Dropping hundreds of dollars into unsatisfying games such as Skylanders and Disney Infinity left me hesitant to see the LEGO name attached to a similar project. However, by the time the announcement trailer ended I knew I had nothing to worry about. LEGO was in good hands and together with TT Games, they were ready to Break the Rules. I'm really sorry, and its great to see a new reviewer but from the first section it was obvious that reading this review would be an utter waste of time, completely uncritical, wrong on facts, totally missing the nuance of the business model. A fanboys orgasm but really not a review.

Nice, well-rounded review. I'm not much of a gamer so I had little interest in "toys-to-life" products before LEGO Dimensions was announced. However, it has been interesting to watch them evolve. LEGO Dimensions takes the physical interaction with the toys and toy pad farther than any other toys-to-life game before it, and it will be interesting to see how its competitors in this category respond. Introducing the Supergirl from Krypton!" This article contains Exclusive or exclusive for a period of time Content. expense squared - the high price of Lego married to the high price of the TTL currency. For those of us who are fans of one but not the other that might affect their view of the game's value. I took a look and it's beyond my understanding how someone can spend so much money on this. But to each their own. The cinematics are beautifully rendered and could be cut together to make an excellent movie with a few small additions. The dialog is excellent too and will delight both children and adults. For instance, at one point Batman is convinced that Scarecrow of Oz is really The Scarecrow from Gotham who must be using his fear toxin to cause everyone to hallucinate. It is important to note that the Batman you play in the game is not the same Batman from The LEGO Movie and there is even a humorous cinematic early on which proves it.

HAHAHAHAHHAHA.' is immensely childish and terribly condescending, and 'My god man, the mental gymnastics to justify this kind of cost is impressive.' is rather aggressive, childish and also very condescending. So yes, hostility. The Toy Pad base has 3 different versions: Xbox 360, Xbox One, and a multiplatform variant PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and Wii U.nparker Who's throwing a tantrum? We're sharing our thoughts on the article, apparently people feel differently. I'm not going to debate whether LEGO Dimensions is a fair value in general, because really that's a debate about the toys-to-life category in general, a category that I have little firsthand experience with. I sure couldn't tell you why this category of video games has taken off the way it has. After building the LEGO portion of the gateway, it attaches to the electronic NFC reader base which fortunately has two 2x2 studded sections on each side to hold it in place. The final product looks even better in person than it does on the box. It has a very organic feel to it and the NFC readers do not look out of place at all.
