You need to play them in coop with your kid. My son and his friends *love* every Lego game. Platforming is just a small part of them. The coop parts are very well done and it's a lot of fun to destroy and reconstruct the world.Marchantianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967694277763110629.post-80461142437477010762013-08-07T09:50:00.375-07:002013-08-07T09:50:00.375-07:00That's exactly why I was a bit puzzled about t...That's exactly why I was a bit puzzled about the criticism. There _is_ a quick save feature, and you can save whenever you want. As far as I remember, you do not have to rely on checkpoints.<br /><br /><br />I loved the game.

Also, even though I accept that the game is technically great and deserves a lot of it's praise I kinda find it annoying. Especially compared to the original... Which I also couldn't play with out quick save :)RayGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967694277763110629.post-45565900135812313312013-08-02T06:56:46.858-07:002013-08-02T06:56:46.858-07:00I was pretty close to yelling agreement at my mp3 ...I was pretty close to yelling agreement at my mp3 player through most of this. Perhaps because I sometimes feel like I was the only one? Especially around the music of Chrono Cross, and Video Games Live covering the Sephiroth track.<br /><br />One of my own: I really did not like BioShock. BioShock seemed, in so many ways, to be a retreading of System Shock 2 to me, enough so that the twists in the plot all seemed very predictable to me. Plus, the game's manual, which I happened to read before playing, lays out much of what is going on, enough so that I experienced no sense of mystery. That kept me at enough of a distance that I could never really get into the material.<br /><br />Well, I did have one affecting moment, but in the end it felt like a betrayal too: I spent the early part of the game harvesting little sisters, right up until I woke up surrounded by them, after Tenenbaum (I think?) fixes you. Having all the little sisters reacting to me with fear was very affecting, and I resolved to never harvest again... but despite this turning over a leaf, and thinking of myself as the good guy from there-on-out, I still got the "evil" ending, which seemed like a betrayal of my narrative in some way.Colin Peacocknoreply@blogger.com
