lego indy
anyone got this?
i got it the other day for my DS. i'm a bit dissapointed with it. it doesn't have the same feel as the star wars games in relation to their respective movies.
its too similar too what with the same music being used in parts. i just don't think there are enough characters in the indy world to make it a worth while game, and cos they are all human and most with out hats they look very samey. its not like you get all the different storm troopers for example.
ive only got the cut down DS version, but there really isnt a lot of levels. i know there was only three films, but they could have expanded on them. although im starting to think they will do what they did with star wars, and bring out a sequel with 'kingdom of crystal skull' and 'the young indy' stuff made into more levels
i think they should have made it into more of an RPG that a puzzle game. its got the lucasarts humour in there just not enough of it in the game play.

erm yes, i meant today, this morning in fact. ive had a good paly on it though.
didn't that come out ages ago?
No idea. I was bored and surfing Amazon and saw it, so thought I'd get it. Still hasn't shipped yet though and I'm not fussed enough to actually make the effort to go out and look for it.
i just had a look its coming out in the UK in august, it came out in US a while ago. its pretty decent, updated quite well, and theold version is there to boot. cant say its on my most played list.
Agreed that the music sounds very similar in places to Lego Starwars, but isn't the composer the same guy (Williams, iirc)?

Well I was a big fan of the original, so hopefully I'll enjoy it. And I still have a while to figure out where I actually put my DS as I haven't used it in donkey's years!
shhh it only came out today.
yeah john williams scored both films, but i think the sondtrack from the star wars lego game is used in places in the indy game.
That's why I have an R4 :-)

he he he it is a good way of trying before you buy, although i must admit i prolly dont give games much of a chance when ive downloaded them.
( I got some amazon vouchers for doing an online survey).
Downloaded it and not tried it I can understand, but why would you buy it then not play it?
Post up when you have played it as I'm thinking of getting this version (I havn't brought a new Wii game for ages)
I've got quite a few games that I've brought and not played yet. Lost Planet, The Darkness, Mass Effect (only got this last week though) and at least 5 or 6 more that I've not played yet. I do it all the time. Don't even get me started on the amount of DVD's that I've brought and not watched even once yet (I still have at lesat 2 that are still in the shrink wrap and I've had them for about 3 years now :) )
My ex did that ALL the time ... there would be like 10-20 DVDs all in a row waiting to be watched, or a bunch of second-hand games waiting ... for weeks ... etc.
sound slike me, i have loads of films i aint bothered watching yet lol
Cool, isn't that the same bloke that composed the Robocop theme?!
What a horrendously awful thing to say! Are you nuts!!!!!!!!! ;-)
It was Basil Poledouris
I played it today though and it is very good. You can use the remote to use the whip or use a button. I recommend it.
PS: I liked Basil Poledouris' scores to Robocop and Starship Troopers - didn't know he was dead though.
Oh dear, could I possibly be anymore wrong?! Honestly, I can explain... I downloaded the Robocop theme using Limewire a while back, and whoever named the file had named it "John Williams - Robocop Theme"!! Honest, guv!!
I have to hold my hand up here, I've got Titanic on DVD still shrink wrapped.
Keep it that way, and throw it away.
