I love Lego Marvel Super Heroes, completing it 100% on the Xbox 360 and mere months later when I purchased a PS4, I double-dipped on the game, again reaching 100% completion. I also loved it so much that I picked up the 3DS version of the game, subtitled “Universe in Peril,” and I thought it…
TT Games had a very busy calendar year going on from late 2013. They put out the massive Lego Marvel Super Heroes, a game based on two-thirds of the Hobbit trilogy, this fall’s Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham and amongst all of that, they managed to produce a game that launched next to February’s blockbuster hit,…
Everyone has their first Lego game, whether it was Star Wars, Indiana Jones or one of the countless others, but for me, it was 2008’s Lego Batman.

NOTE: I played in 2D but turned the slider up periodically to check to see how the game looks and found no real difference at all. For games that try to launch across nearly every single available platform on the market, there’s a few options that a developer can take when bringing a game to…
