Re: LEGO Dimensions (Multi-Console, 9/27/2015)

Since I don't feel like searching through 6 pages of this thread...

What's the general consensus on this game? Good/bad/awesome?

I got the Portal 2 Level Pack for Christmas. Wife bought it on a whim, since I'm a Portal fan, even though I don't have the "Starter Pack". And I've got some Best Buy gift cards to use up.

So how do people here feel about the game?

My wife and I are still fairly early into it. I love its approach to couch co-op, and its sense of humor has made us both laugh out loud several times. I'm enjoying it, but I'm not crazy about the puzzles that revolve around moving characters around the portal: partially because the movement is a little annoying, but more because the puzzles themselves just aren't that great.

I think this is what sells me on it the most. We're in desperate need of a good couch co-op game. Thanks!

Got the Starter Pack for Christmas. I've now fallen down a dark hole of Lego buying.

Pretty sure the single greatest moment in this game (hell, maybe all of gaming) is during the Portal level when

shows up to distract GLaDOS.

Fun packs are $5 off each at Amazon. Team and Level packs are $10 off. Works on pre-orders. Might be Prime specific.

Weird, I have Prime and all I'm seeing are incredibly high prices.

The discounts show during checkout. I went ahead and pre-ordered the next wave. Pretty good deal for the level and team packs.

Also make sure the seller is Amazon. A lot are back ordered, but you can still order them.

Thanks - I hadn't gotten anywhere near checkout at the prices that show in the cart.

It looks like Amazon doesn't sell the Scooby Doo Team Pack, but I will do some preorders.

The Doctor Who Fun Pack is down to $7.49 at Amazon. Looks like a few other Fun Packs are that price, too.

I just got in on the lower prices before they removed the $5 off promo earlier today. Picked up 10 fun packs for $26.60. And that includes pre-orders of Dr Who Cyberman, Ninjago Sensei Wu and BttF Doc Brown.

Now I have to return a couple I recently picked up from other places during the holiday sales.

Latest wave of fun packs are now $7.50($6 w/ GCU) at Best Buy. Good for those that did not get in on the Amazon deal.

Speaking of which, all of the ones I ordered(pre-orders and current releases) have delivery dates of mid-Feb.

I finally got around to playing this game this weekend. First I was Gandalf driving the batmobile around the shire looking for some bad hobbits (i could only find 1!). then i switched to Doctor Who and worked on that story line with my daughter, who was the girl from Portal.
