At that point I then felt rather cheated. Even playing it at a relatively relaxed pace and at times just wandering around hunting for hidden items and trying to complete side tasks rather than playing the main story, I still completed the game in around six hours. The real problem is that the core game was incredibly short.

The relatively relaxed pace means that it’s accessible and enjoyable by gamers of all ages and the self-effacing humour really adds that extra touch that no other game series has managed to capture yet. For me, it generally pressed all the right buttons – LEGO, Marvel superheroes and something that wasn’t too taxing so I could enjoy it at any time of day or night without having to give the game my 100% attention but still be able to enjoy it and that’s what I always think is important in a LEGO game. The game itself IS fun and I loved playing it. To make matters worse, there are more than a few occasions where the sound has been quite badly edited to create “conversations” and it seems stilted and jittery and it really does spoil the game’s atmosphere.


Why? Well, all of the dialogue has in fact been lifted directly from the movies, background noise and all, and it’s quite obvious that this has been the case. Having the original cast on board should have made a massive difference to the atmosphere for the game but instead it turned out to be a real disappointment and I would have preferred it if WB Games had used their regular pool of talented voice actors instead. However, while the game is polished and extremely playable, this is where the first of its flaws rears its ugly head.

Sound wise is impressive with plenty of music from the movies and the game is fully voiced throughout and initially I was quite taken aback to find that it was the entire movie cast providing the voices for all their characters. Visually the game has kept up to the same standard of many of the previous LEGO releases, using the Vita’s native screen resolution and not only has great, fluid in-game visuals but some superb cut-scenes as well. Although it’s a single player only game (unlike its console counterparts), it does allow you to use more than one character throughout play unlike the previous LEGO Marvel game, swapping at will and using team-up moves to reach hidden areas or destroy obstacles in your path. The game kicks off with Avengers (or Avengers Assemble for those living in Europe), each stage of the game follows a set piece from the movie building up to the climactic battle in New York. The premise of the game is what you’d come to expect from a LEGO title – taking control of multiple switchable characters, the game is spread over a number of stages and in this case recreates the story of the first two Avengers movies but with the expected LEGO twist. Right now I’m more interested in what has been one of their biggest releases of late, the game based on some of Marvel’s biggest characters and two of their biggest movies to hit the big screen for a long time – LEGO Marvels Avengers…

Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love playing them, whether it’s been on the PS2, PSP, PS3 and now on the PS Vita and I’ve been surprised at how much I’ve even enjoyed the games based on the original LEGO franchises of the Legend Of Chima and Ninjago – games I wasn’t expecting to enjoy. There are a few things that seem to be consistent in the gaming world – Sony’s disregard for the PS Vita and that we will see a seemingly never-ending flow of releases of LEGO games.
