LEGO's take on the Grand Theft Auto formula. Not actually that bad. Since TT Games had previously mastered being able to create a vast overworld with LEGO Batman 2, it makes sense that they would utilize that again, this time with their own original world and characters. The story is nothing to write home about, but its pretty satisfactory for a family-oriented game. The cutscenes and dialogue continue to utilize that LEGO humor that you'd normally expect from one of their games, this time with references to various movies and TV shows. There are some issues, specifically with the nuisance that is traveling the open world to find optional Gold Bricks (a problem that would continue to affect future LEGO installments) and my personal distaste towards the more "animated" combat style. It's a good LEGO experience, keeping up with the charm that the previous games had, as well as the ones that came after it.
