The official press release for LEGO Minifigures Online has the details of the full launch as well as some new screenshots of the game.

If you have purchased anything with real money during the beta, your copy of the game will be upgraded to the full version so basically you get the game for free when it is launched next week.

June 18, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

On the last day of E3, Arthur Parsons did one last interview today with IGN for LEGO Marvel’s Avengers and they showed off an extended demo gameplay of the game. Arthur noted that LEGO Marvel’s Avengers is a “celebration of Avengers” and there will be over 100 new characters that haven’t appeared before in LEGO games including Ulysses Klaw as well as possibly various comic book costumes. There’s not much more information than what we already knew but you can check out the video below.

LEGO Jurassic World Video Game – The Lost World: Jurassic Park Playthrough

June 17, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

I recently had some time to play more of LEGO Jurassic World and I was able to complete the story mode for The Lost World: Jurassic Park movie part of the game. I made some changes on how I uploaded the videos to YouTube from Twitch. Instead of just doing a long playthrough and uploading in 15 minute increments, I decided to upload the videos by the different scenes in the game. Again this is just the story mode so I haven’t collected everything I’m supposed to yet until I get to the free play mode which I’ll get to sometime in the future.

Ghostbusters Peter Venkman Minifigure Confirmed for LEGO Dimensions

June 17, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

A few weeks ago, I reported that there were some new licenses that were announced for LEGO Dimensions including Ghostbusters and Midway Arcades. At E3, it’s been confirmed that we’ll be getting a Ghostbusters Peter Venkman minifigure with a new hair pieces as well as some arm printing with the No Ghost patch. If you have the LEGO Ideas Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (21108), you would know that the minifigures in that set do not have any arm printing so it’s nice to see that the LEGO Dimensions version will have some. We’ll see in the near future if the other Ghostbusters members will also be included in Dimensions as well as the rumored Slimer minifigure.

Also check out IGN’s interview with Jon Katz from WB Interactive Entertainment and Mark Warburton from TT Games to see Peter in action in LEGO Dimensions.

LEGO Dimensions Star Wars Theme Not Happening Ever (No Surprise)

June 16, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

Earlier today, Disney vice president of of production John Vignocchi did an interview with IGN at E3 and he was asked if Star Wars was ever going to be in LEGO Dimensions and not surprisingly, the answer was an adamant no.

Don’t count on it.

Since Star Wars was announced to be released on Infinity 3.0 yesterday, it was pretty much guaranteed that the theme would not be coming to LEGO Dimensions. Vignocchi notes that “introducing Star Wars to LEGO Dimensions would cannibalize the Disney Infinity business. Good for everyone except Disney Infinity.” I pretty much said the same thing in April when I was speculating on possible LEGO Dimensions themes. Vignocchi also stated that the licensees of Infinity don’t want to mix franchises which is pretty much what LEGO Dimensions is doing.

With the exclusion of Star Wars as a theme for LEGO Dimensions, I really don’t see fans being that disappointed because Dimensions is already filled with many different characters from a lot of themes including some new ones like Portal 2, Wizard of Oz, and Doctor Who.

There have been readers who have asked the same question about Marvel being in LEGO Dimensions and the answer will probably be the same as Star Wars since Disney owns them as well.

LEGO Marvel’s Avengers Gameplay Footage at E3

June 16, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

A short while ago, TT Games Game Director Arthur Parsons showed off some gameplay footage for LEGO Marvel’s Avengers at E3. The game features the first Avengers movie, Avengers: Age of Ultron, “and more.”

The interview was pretty short but we did get to see some different gameplay footage from the end of the first Avengers movie. The game will begin at the beginning of Avengers: Age of Ultron where they are searching for Loki’s staff. It then segues into the scene in the first Avengers movie where Loki is given the staff. There’s also more content after the Avengers movies including an open-world New York.

There’s also a new team-up combat system called the “Avengers Inititive Moves” where you have certain Avengers team up in various ways for example Hulk interacts with Iron Man or Black Widow with Hawkeye. Every single character will also have a power bar that you can charge up to unleash solo combat special moves or team combo moves. The special moves will take a third off from the fully-powered bar.

The fighting style and costumes for each character is different from movie to movie. All the characters will have new moves and abiliteis. For example, Captain America’s moves from the first Avengers movie will differ from his moves in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Like with the recent LEGO Jurassic World video game, LEGO Marvel’s Avengers will also incorporate actual movie dialog into the game. Arthur also slyly mentions that some of the new MCU characters like Quicksilver will be in … Continue
