Lego City Undercover Oozes Charm

by | posted in: Game News | 0

If Lego City Undercover delivers this kind of charm and humor for the game’s entirety, I would consider picking it up. I sincerely hope they deliver on the gameplay and completely rip off Sleeping Dogs. I know that’s farfetched but I can dream can’t I?

I thought this was going to end up on other consoles as well until I saw Nintendo’s logo appear at the start of the trailer. I have to congratulate Nintendo for rounding up some solid third party support. Lego City Undercover joins the likes of Bayonetta 2 and The Wonderful 101 as Wii U exclusives.

iOS Bringing Back The Lego Fun

by | posted in: Game News | 0

I loved Lego when I was younger. And if I had the the time and space to revisit some of my Lego collections, I would. Since I don’t have the drive to build a space monorail or castle, I would settle for a simple game.

In fact, I’d get the Life of George LEGO set for $34.99 for Canadians. Unfortunately it ends up being closer to the $50 price point after taxes, shipping and all that nonsense. For that $50, you get a selection Lego pieces and a piece of paper with dots on it. Ridiculous, but with the free iOS app, the game looks entertaining.

The idea behind it is neat. Using an iOS device as the referee and scorekeeper to track the mundane tasks allows us all to focus on the heart of the matter which happens to be building fishes out of Lego.

I’ll pick this up for $30 or less.
