also when the John Williams’ Superman theme kicks in and plays in it’s entirely I defy any Superman fan not to have a smile on their face. The story is great and is made all the better by the addition of voices to the LEGO characters. The voice actors do a solid job, with the scenes between Batman and Superman being the most funny. The game developers manage to stay faithful to the core of Batman’s character while poking fun at him at the same time. For me, having the characters speak was one of the best parts of the game. I’m now wishing the developers could go back and redub some of the other LEGO games in this way. Geek Syndicate box it is. There are still villains to be fought and secrets to be discovered. Trust me this is a game that will keep you busy for a while and also one that will be good to just drop in solo or with a mate and have the occasional blast on. In the end it’s not just about fancy cut scenes, after all this is a computer game and in this regard the team at Travellers Tale Games have nothing to worry about. Like the previous LEGO games the fun doesn’t stop once you complete the game. Only a small percentage of what you can discover is accomplished upon completion. Unlike previous games you have a sandbox, in the form of Gotham City to play in and what a wonderful sand- Put simply LEGO Batman 2 is the best entry in the LEGO game franchise.
