At least you didn't get all the way to the end and it fucked up like mine! Anyways, I was playing it all on co-op with my daughter aswell and it really does put you off playing any other Lego games. I have POTC and Indy 2 lying around and we still need to finish Star Wars 3.


I wouldn't let it put you off playing POTC. It's a fantastic game and glitch free as far as I could tell. I haven't played all the Lego games but POTC is certainly the best I've played so far.

 As I say, my LEGO HP 1-4 (on the 360) played perfectly fine the whole way through, so maybe you have a dodgy disc or something?

Anyone who has played Harry Potter 1-4 know of any glitches? I've just finished the forbidden forest level and am following the ghost through Hogwarts and also following Quirrell but he stops in a doorway the arrow is telling me to go through and won't let me past. It's driving me crazy.....


Yup I've got glitches on HP1-4, 5-7 and Batman, pisses me off no end.

The 1-4 one is with the salt and slugs which I've done but didn't get a brick for so I'm at 99.7%, can't get the brick and without 100% can't get Voldermort.

They never patch them either to resolve the issues.

 Platinumed Harry Potter 5-7 last night - and after promising myself just a "quick go", ended up caning it at about 4am (which is slightly better than the 5am finish last friday!)

Got it on release, played for a bit but just couldn't get on with it. Put it on again the week before last and quickly got hooked.

Considering going back to POTC now to try and polish that off, but also need to try Clone Wars (another one I couldn't get into) - didn't even finish story mode on that.

The only LEGO game I gave up on was Clone Wars. I thought it was piss poor and really didn't get on with it. Some of the levels were decent but overall, it was a massive let down. I had to give up on LSWII as a result of the disc breaking! I think I wore it out.

Batman: Arkham City was widely considered one of the best games of 2011, introducing a nightmarish, open-world version of Gotham City in which players could fight, explore and more.

So if Lego Batman 2's got it's own open-world version of Gotham City is it going up against Rocksteady's game for a place in Batman fans' hearts?

"Not at all," producer Philip Ring told NowGamer. "I love Arkham City – it’s a great game – but we’re just making a different take on the Lego world, and with Batman and DC there is that beauty of it that people can do different stories and different locations and have their own feel for Batman and these characters and we’re doing that."

Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes will also introduce full character speech, but don't worry that the Lego games are suddenly getting serious. "We want to make our version of the Lego Batman world with these DC superheroes so there’s no competition," adds Ring. "They’re two entirely different titles."

Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes also introduces Superman to the Lego games universe and is set to launch this Summer.



Mmmmmm...Speech?

I just started playing 1-4 last night, and there was a 4MB update required before I could begin - could this have been the patch to address the glitches?  Anyway, just taken care of the troll in the toilets and enjoying it all so far.

Guess who has just remembered about their offer to lend you Lego Batman about 6 months ago? Sorry Ms Wonder, I've a head like the proverbial sieve these days.  If you drop me your address again, I'll get it off to you this week

You know, I'd actually forgotten about that, so don't worry about it! I'll drop you another PM :)

 Lego HP 1-4 is turning out to be the most disappointing of the titles so far.  I think it's mainly because Hogwarts and its environs is just so damned big!  I just want to get stuck into the storylines, with one or two rooms to return to where I can select levels, unlock characters, view videos etc.  It seems that I'm spending as much time following ghosts around between levels on the story mode as I do actually completing the level!  Please tell me they've changed this for 5-7!

Hogwarts is my favourite part of that game. Great sense of exploration.

They haven't changed the size of Hogwarts, but personally I don't really remember it taking that long to get around. Like directorscut, though, the size of Hogwarts is one of my favourite things about the games. There's lots to explore in the free play.

The most disappointing thing to me about 5-7 was that you couldn't free play in the room of requirement. But I suppose that's because it takes on various different forms throughout 5-7 (the DA practice room, the room of hidden things, the DA hideout in Deathly Hallows) so they'd have to pick one for it to be. However, I'm sure they could've given us some sort of option so we could choose which incarnation of the room we wanted when we went inside.

 You know, after my earlier rant, I've actually come to enjoy the Hogwarts part after the last couple of sessions.  I think that really my initial disappointment was probably because there was no way to choose which year to do first, instead you are restricted to simply completing the storyline in chronological order.  Star Wars, POTC, Indy and Batman all let you decide which order in which to play the game from the start, which meant that if there were particuar skills you needed for freeplay to collect the various items, it was easier to free them.  I'm just finishing off year 2 now, so maybe this will cease to be as much of an irritation soon

 I have Lego Star Wars III : The Clone Wars from Lovefilm and the game keeps crashing on the Asajj Ventress Missions, namely #5 when I get two storm trooper to open up a gate.
As soon as they open it the screen goes black and all you hear is the music. Is this a problem experienced by others or did I just get a faulty disc from Lovefilm?

 I don't remember it crashing at all. Do remember it being rather poor though.

 But I am 30% of the way through it.

Oh well, back to Lovefilm with it and hopefully a working copy comes back.

 Well, just mopping up Lego HP 5-7 now and I have decided that I bloody hate missable achievements!  Forgot completely to pop back to Hogwarts before finishing Year 7 part 1, now it looks like I have to run through the game again

I've found the HP games to be a bit of a curates egg to be honest - I've enjoyed the humour and the general gameplay is as good as I had hoped, but the structuring of the game has left a little to be desired.  Stages seem to last ages, which is normally a very good thing, but the various preludes and conclusions that you have to play through just stretch them out a bit too much.  Though the fact that I'm not a big fan of the source material this time around may be prejudicing my opinions slightly as it means I'm less prepared to forgive its shortcomings.
