I like Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, but I don’t love it as much as I’ve loved previous games in the series. It definitely delivers on the promise of letting me play with charmingly realized versions of many of my favorite DC heroes and villains, and it even presents a setting with lots of great surprises, challenges, and systems that promote variety.

No, Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham doesn’t completely break the mold, but it’s a galaxy-wide tour of DC’s beloved playgrounds, packed with an almost-overwhelming content load (and more replayability than even diehard fans could stomach). And in spite of its linearity and occasionally infuriating missteps, there’s something truly special about Traveller’s Tales’ third entry in the Batman series: it’s not really a Batman game at all.

His constant hijinks during cutscenes left me laughing out loud every time. Just as great is the portrayal of Cyborg, who left a broad smile on my face every time he unleashed his trademark "BOOYAH!" In short, the game is a delightful, family-friendly hop around the galaxy starring some your favorite superheroes. A wealth of hidden secrets in every level keeps the game high on replayability, while the deluge of extra content promises many hours of adventuring.

On many counts this is the best of the Lego super-hero games, with some fantastic missions and a feast of characters and costumes. Yet without an open world to tie it all together it feels like it's missing something at its core, and the pacing in the early missions could be better.

Although celebrities overstay their welcome, and some of the bonus content can be a hassle to track down, Traveller’s Tales crafted another solid super hero adventure in Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. Next time, I’d like to see more screen time given to the heroes, and less to a talk show host who isn’t even good at video games.

So here's the deal. I'm not a big fan of the LEGO franchise. These games always seemed way too generic to me. I have a lot of friends who enjoy these games, just for their sheer mindless fun, but for me they always seemed shallow and kind of repetitive....

Unser Eindruck von LEGO Batman 3 - Jenseits von Gotham ist ungefähr so, wie wir ihn erwartet hatten. Jemand, der sich noch nie für die virtuellen Baustein-Abenteuer begeistern konnte, wird auch mit diesem Titel nicht warm werden. Freunde des...
