Lego Indiana Jones

So we’ve watched the new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie (which I still say is an outrageuosly long title for a movie).  Before that we refreshed our Indy knowledge rewatching Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.  [Have you noticed that the first move now has "Indiana Jones and" prepended to the title on the newer releases?  It wasn't like that when it released.]

So you would think I’d be all work out at this point of anything with a fedora and a whip.  But I really want to play the new Lego Indiana Jones game.  Muse and I played the Lego Star Wars II game on Playstation 2 for a bit but we never really got very far.  I thought it was a lot of fun though and I can see how the Indiana Jones franchise could really take advantage of the Lego game formula.

I just need to add it to the ever growing list of games I want to buy before I leave Hong Kong.  XBox360 and PS3 games are quite a bit cheaper here since the market won’t support the ridiculous $60 USD per title price that is charged in the United States.  Most games releasing in Hong Kong start at or around $39 USD per title when they come out and you can always find some older/cheaper ones too.  I will definitely miss that when I’m gone.

    You can get your Lego Star Wars fix with Lego Indiana too, most of the primary Star Wars guys are unlockable in Indiana Jones.

    My youngest loves lego Star Wars. He has it on PS2 and DS. He wants the Indiana one and also the Batman one due out this summer.

    In a slightly related topic… it’s odd that the people in charge of movies, and movie legality, decided that any movie that is targeted for teens must only have 3 words in the name. I don’t know what that accomplishes exactly.

    yeah, the games are way overpriced. it’s crazy. I almost got the lego indy game for wii, but I held back. Now that you’ve reminded me though, I think I’ll have to pick it up. curse you!
