    Great game, it takes the lego formula even further without loosing any of its strenghs.
    Like the previous Lego games Batman 2 is rather long with a 12 hours campaign and you can double the time if you want the 100%. It's one of the best games for young children and co-op play. The graphics are pretty cute with good effects and faithful to the universe.

    But Lego Batman 2 also brings its fair share of innovations, and not small ones. First the characters can speak now which enable the game to be funnier but above all else create an original and detailed story (unlike Lego Batman 1), the second big innovation is the change of the classic hub to an open-world with lot of extras to collect.

    Lego Batman 2 is truly a step forward for the Lego games without loosing any of its originals attributes, congrats TravelersTales Games, it's certainly one of the best game for the young audience in the market.    … Expand

    The basics are all there. There's no doubt this is a true unique Lego game. But there are many improvements that make this one the best Lego game so far. The open world map is a bit overwhelming, at first, especially when you see one thousand things to do and have no clue on how to do them.

You'll keep wondering where are the other characters, how do you buy stuff, how do you replay levels and so on. But the lose ends come together eventually and, after a great story (filled with exciting moments) you'll have a sandbox game like no other. There are many flaws, of course, especially with navigating the map (flying mechanics are a nightmare) and actually FINDING stuff on the map - additionally you have no idea where's north and south (a compass would be a welcome addition), so you'll have some difficulty in knowing where you are going. But, apart from that, a great game and the best Lego game so far.… Expand

    This was a surprisingly good game, as I'd been getting tired of the same old LEGO games and sequels, What separated this one from the pack was the open world section where you could grab a friend and run rampant through Gotham City, fighting villains, finding secret items, locating new unlockable heroes, villains and vehicles, and exploring to your heart's content.

The story is great, however, the hub-world suffers from being 'a bit boring', as I call it, it also has a lot of framerate issues, but there are a few of those throughout the rest of the game. But I have had a lot of fun in the hub of gotham. The lengh of this game is good, being not too long, and not too short.

    Although this game was designed for co-op play, it doesn't feel like it, as the dodgy split-screen gets very annoying at times and feels as though it was thrown in at the last minute of developement. The actual design and gameplay is great in this game, but isn't as good as it some of predecessor's gameplay, and one of it's successors LEGO Lord of the Rings. Also, the occaisonal glitches of this game are very annoying.

    LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes is a fun yet flawed experience packed with laughs and aggravated noises. So I give this game a... 79/100!    … Expand

    Ok guys i am gonna do this review as short as possible. 1. It has voices this is a great addition from previous lego games. 2. Is open world 3. People to save, characters to unlock, and 100s of gold bricks to find. 4 about 9 hours of gameplay and more for collectors. Is a great game overall and worth buying

Plot: Lex Luthor breaks the Joker and other imprisoned villians out of Arkham Asylum. He forms an alliance with the Joker in order to achieve his goals. Batman will team up with other DC heroes from the justice league such as Superman, and the Green Lantern in order to prevent Lex Luthor from achieving his evil goals. Justice League: very well blended into the game to aid Batman from time to time. Each hero has their own unique supernatural abilities which make this game more of a blast to play. Freedom: Gotham City can be free roamed in between missions which is great due to the fact that you have access to Batman's vehicles such as the Bat Mobile. My opinion: This is a great game, voice acting is top notch, and the graphics and story are so immersive you will forget that everything is made of Lego, as it will blend in so nicely with the game    … Expand

    STORY: It doesn't try to be anything deep like the Batman films but it is entertaining nevertheless with jokes and banters. The closet thing I can think of is the TV series Batman Brave and the Bold. It's got that kind of feel to it, not parody like the 1960s but not dark like the 90s BTAS. Batman has dry humor. He's serious; no one else is. This adds to the entertainment value.

He's serious; no one else is. This adds to the entertainment value.

    COMBAT: Half of the game is breaking stuff. Half of the breaking stuff is combat (fighting Lego people i.e. bad guys). Most action games you have to punch a guy 10 times before they magically disappear; not in Legoland - er, Gotham. You punch a guy maybe 2-3 times and he breaks into pieces (literally ... because they're Legos; no blood). It's simple and fun. The other half of the breaking stuff is breaking random stuff because it's what you do in video games (and needed for puzzle solving).

    PUZZLES: The other half of the game is puzzles. You'll find yourself stuck a lot of times. After beating everyone in combat, you're not sure what to do next; this is when you have to use your head and think about the environment. It often boils down to this: 1) Are you wearing the right costume (Batman has different gadgets)? If not, change. 2) Have you broken everything you can? Breaking things sometimes reveal pieces you can then use to create something else, like a costumer changer thing or a staircase, which you'll need to get to the second floor or your next stop.

    Overall, it's a fun experience. You can ride the Batmobile around Gotham City to get to different missions, or you can switch to Robin from Batman (or whichever characters; they are many) and ride a motorbike instead. You can't die, which is a good thing because it means you can keep playing without a game over. The action is fun; the jumping around is fun. The action is interrupted by moments when you have to stop and think about what you need to do next to proceed so the game is part action, part puzzles, which is a pretty good combination for a Batman game.    … Expand

    Still, even with its virtual omission of anyone not with "man" at the end of their name doesn't keep LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes from being fun. Watching a beloved hero like Batman fight baddies and his own issues with Superman is a great combination, and it's all presented in the family-friendly LEGO wrapper we've come to expect from Telltale. If you or anyone in your house is a fan of the caped crusader - even the newest iteration - you can rest assured that LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes will be a hit.
