Rate Indiana Jones: 'Lego Indiana Jones 2' Review - Bad Dates? Not This Time!

Original at MTV Multiplayer external link    Fri, Nov 20

Thumbnail

By MTV Video Games The biggest thing working against "The Adventure Continues" is the heavy emphasis on "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," which was a terrible movie that nobody liked (I may be overstating this). If you're playing through the main story, you have to start in the "Crystal S...

By Brian Crecente LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues spends much of its time focused on the brickification of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but it also gives players a taste of Indy's original adventures. Better still, it gives Indiana Jones fans a chance to build their own L...

By J. Caleb Mozzocco This Batman carries a gun, but he’s not the Batman of 1939—and that’s a shame, as there’s a thrilling creepiness about that Batman design, a sense of the bizarre that only gets stronger the farther and farther away we’re removed from him.  This Batman looks exactly like our Batman, except f...

By Chris Sims Batman/Doc Savage Special #1: Earlier today, Kevin Church pretty much nailed this one on Twitter when he said that if your story ends with Doc Savage telling everyone Batman didn’t commit a murder because Batman uses a different kind of gun, then you’re doing it wrong.
