If you happen to be wondering what console games the kids will probably be playing this Christmas, the Lego Batman game is already a hit. Kids love Lego so the fact they are able to mix their best toy and their number 1 super hero is definitely a recipe for success. This Lego game comes in numerous versions appropriate for your Nintendo Wii, DS or Playstation so make sure to get the right one according to the console you already own.

So what’s the Batman Lego game supposed to be about? Regardless of the platform used i.e. Wii, DS or Playstation, the basic principles are identical. The game play is set in Gotham City where Batman and Robin are struggling to return the bad guys to the asylum. They fight through the sea, land and air in several Batmobiles for example the stealthy Batwing. You need to assemble certain things and solve a variety of puzzles to unlock special powers etc. You don’t have to be an expert on the Batman story either. This specific console game, in contrast to Lego Star Wars or Lego Indiana Jones does not keep to the movie script.

Each level does need to be played two times, once in story mode and again in free play mode. In story mode, you will get to unlock numerous characters that you then use to play in the free play mode. Once you are in free play you get to work out puzzles and gather bonuses. You can also construct vehicles and weapons to use to fight your adversaries. The characters have specific tactics and there are many aspects to the game so you or your kids wouldn’t become bored playing. Small children could possibly struggle a little with the techniques but with some help they will be ok. Many will appreciate that contrary to a few other Wii games you won’t start again in the event you die but simply lose coins.

Tip: The christmas toys of 2010 are already out.

Even if we often reckon that kids love the goodies, it is fair to say they can enjoy being the baddies just as much or even more. In this video game it is easy to play the game from either side i.e. they can be Batman or Robin or some may prefer to be one of the many villains such as Joker, Catwoman or Penguin.

The Lego Batman game may be played either on your own or with other people for added fun. If you are trapped on a level and cannot find your way out there are numerous video tutorials on YouTube that show answers. It is enjoyable attempting to work out the puzzles yourself however sometimes it may get slightly annoying. Needless to say if you wish to cheat your way through the Lego Batman game you can get lots of clues that will help you do this but that ruins the fun of this great game.

Tip: Most little girls are looking forward to the holiday doll 2010.
