This game rocks:
I played this with my nephews (7 and 9) on Wii and loved it so much I got the game myself for PS3. The Wii version was a little buggy, but I have had zero problems on the PS3. This is a great game for all ages and genders. I'm a 33 year old game fanatic who usually plays the Halo/Call of Duty ilk but I can't get enough of these lego games...really clever, challenging enough with lots to do. Get it!
Follows movies closely, way too buggy.:
Besides being buggy, lack of shadows for characters gives you no depth perception. Jumping and walking in straight lines is impossible in the game.
Low-Risk Fun for all skills:
I got this game because I had heard from a friend that it was a good game to play with those people who are not hardcore gamers. This game has no ultimate death penalty, there are puzzles and action alike. The game rewards teamwork and encourages creative thought, as well as playing through some of the great movies of my childhood!
Another Decent Lego Adventure Game:
Lego Indiana Jones is reasonably fun for what it is - an easy family friendly adventure game that lets you play through the Indiana Jones movies. If you like the Indiana Jones films (the first three), and liked Lego Star Wars (which is a better game in my opinion), you'll probably like this as well. While the main story is fun to play through, going back through in 'Free Play' mode lets you get to new areas and collect all the stuff you missed or couldn't get to before.
