"The adorable Dark Knight is back to defend Gotham City from blocky, plastic ne'er do-wells. But this time he's brought a few pals from the Justice League to help with his war on the stackable building blocks of evil. He'll be joined by several of DC Comic's top-tier characters in Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes. Other Justice League characters confirmed are Superman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern."

"Probably the best thing about number 4 on our list is that she's not a good girl. She's naughty. She's a little bit crazy, but then again, aren't they all? She dresses in a leotard, a schoolgirl outfit, or some combination of black and red goth attire. She paints her face a little more obviously than most women -- all of this while still maintaining some kind of innocence that makes her seem sweet even while threatening you with an oversized mallet. How does she do it? I don't know, but..."

"Before this week, developer Travellers Tales had released a total of four Lego games which covered only two licenses: Star Wars and Indiana Jones. It is with some relief then that we greet the arrival of Lego Batman: The Videogame. Not only does the game feature improvements over the late-Spring disappointment that was Lego Indiana Jones, it also finally takes on a license which wasnt created by George Lucas. While Lego Batman: The Videogame still falls short in many ways to the superio..."

"Traveler's Tales is putting in some nice work on their upcoming release Lego Batman: The Videogame (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PSP, Wii, DS, PC) as seen in these screenshots. We've grabbed hold of them in a recent press release, and we were pleasantly surprised with what we had to see.
The villains, as shown in these shots, look pretty cute in their blocky glory. Icons of the series like Mr. Freeze and The Scarecrow look diabolically delightful, making us more excited to see them come to lif..."
The bigger they are, the harder they fall. The same saying goes for the PSP. It's already made big waves this year with God of War: Chains of Olympus and Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core, but don't think for a second that it's done pulling the punches yet!
