That doesn’t necessary mean that LEGO Batman is already worn out and still used as a new game. There are some differences to be noticed if we compare this one to the others in the LEGO series, though the mechanics and graphics are almost unchanged. Actually LEGO style became a LEGO as a game, when its definition started to interconnect with this special graphics that put a mark on the game, gaining in this way its constancy in design and recognition in style. The player has a whole bunch of Batman character to play with and fight against. They are funny characters resembling to the ones present in the old TV shows, where even the bad fellows were joyful.
The game is rich in gunplay and fighting, but the feeling one gets is of a ping pong ball guns. The positive thing is that you can control even the bad guys, giving you the possibility to be Batman, Robin, Batgirl and at the same time you get to be Joker, Riddler, Bane, Poison Ivy and many others from the tough gallery of the super-evils.The game gives you the possibility to play through the game by yourself or with a friend, and both are satisfaction guaranteed. Thus, Batman and Robin can co-operate together having special moves funny in their way, but no excitement is present as long as you do not work in the proximity of your partner. The viewpoints are a bit too far to realize what is actually going on, and due to this, you might end up caught in the corners. Special skills are provide to you, such as climbing walls, blow up buildings, and so on.
Unfortunately the combat doesn’t touch the limits of reality, since you can never die! It simply keeps your time busy with solving puzzles. Anyway, one may say that it delivers enough fun, as it is a genuine story, LEGO Batman actually tells its own story. If you take into account the fact that LEGO is combined with Batman, one may take it as a game intended merely for children, but the concern for detail and cut scene certainly lifts the game above the one meant for children.
