LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham /Wii-U

This is another entry into the saga that is 'Lego Batman' ... and, like its predecessors, it's a whole lot of fun. It combines action (lots of fighting) with detective work (puzzles to solve), and can be played by both adults and children alike. It really works well as a 2-player game.Batman's world is vastly expanded here. We move beyond Gotham City to outer space! And there is a huge host of super-heroes (and villains!) to choose from, so you can play as your favourite DC character - from the Flash to Wonder Woman, from Superman to the Martian Manhunter. The story concerns the evil Brainiac - who's invading Earth, with the intention of shrinking it and adding it to his collection of planets! So you must journey around the galaxy - to various 'Green Lantern worlds' - to gather what's necessary to stop Brainiac.This is a big game - with 45 separate missions (with over 100 characters to choose from). As with previous games, the musical score is great (based on the well-known themes from the movies and TV series). The voice actors add a lot of humour to the adventure. The graphics are great (and an improvement on the last game).It's a game with much re-play value, as you seek to build all the various Lego items. As for myself, I found some of the puzzles quite challenging to work out (but my 7 year old nephew told me what to do) ... If you enjoy Lego games, and you're a fan of Batman, you'll probably like this. Thoroughly recommended.

Great game my 5 year old loves it. Unlike sone games where you play it and then its completed these are made to have story modes (which you play 1st) then free play (where you go to complete tasks with different characters that you have found in other levels/in the story mode, so this will keep you/your kids happy for a lot longer than 'basic' games. I've also played this as a second player with my son and it is fun for adults too!!!

I have always enjoyed playing these Lego games. Batman 3 is no exception, although some of the elements are past my skills. I also need the help of the online walkthroughs on occasion. It has kept me happy for hours.

As a fan of the Lego franchise on the WiiU (and previously the Wii) I've enjoyed this game but it seems Travellers Tales are happy to keep issuing games that stall and freeze. It's been an issue since the very first Star Wars game and it's still happening...

Great game, a couple of a disappointments. There is no open world section like Lego Marvel and the Wii pro controller cant be used to play the 2nd player so if you dont have a wii u pro controller you will have to use the wiimote.
