Buy LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

It's a pretty typical LEGO game. If you like LEGO games, you'll probably like this one as well. If you don't usually like LEGO games, this one probably won't change your mind.

Pros:
-It's a LEGO game
-It's great for younger children
-Local co-op is always a plus
-Marvel fans will appreciate the characters and story
-Tons of collectibles and side missions for completionists

Cons:
-Yet another LEGO game
-Combat is pretty mindless
-It's very easy, and there's no real penalty for dying
-It can hold your hand a bit too much at times

There's really not much for me to say here. It's a LEGO game, and it isn't significantly better or worse than other LEGO games.

This is a great one to play with your kid. I'd recommend it on that strength alone. The campaign is sizeable (about 15 hours), very replayable, and encourages the simple, exciting, sometimes hilarious co-op that even a four-year-old could get into. My one complaint is that some of the puzzles and boss battles are really unintuitive and obtuse, and I had to consult a walkthrough several times.

But the real fun begins when you unlock Manhattan after beating the final boss. There's hundreds of hours of fun stuff to do and unlock as you free roam the city, and dozens of characters to play with.

Worth full price, but definitely get it on sale.

Pros -
*Excellent Humour.
*Great Pacing.
*Fun game.
*Quite Entertaining for a few hours.
*Characters tie in nicely.
*Runs Smoothly.
*Playable.
*Cutscenes were wonderful.
*Every single character had a purpose.
*Able to be played for a long period of time without getting bored.
*Every character has a purpose or a Role.
*Stan Lee is in it.
*Good Lengthed Story telling and Everything ties in Together well, Silver Surfer, Cosmic Bricks, Dr Octopus, Captain America, Hawkeye, Iron Man. Everyone ties in well and nobody pops in out of nowhere, it's all explained well and the story is done phenomanally.
*Lego.
*DLC Actually has purpose, can be used for going through alternative paths in different levels and every character is simple play style which kinda makes up for the terrible key mapping.
*Free Roam.

Cons -
*Controls are absolutely terrible.
*Control Mapping is terrible.
*Mapping itself is god awful.
*Some things are impossible to find.
*Tedious dialogue.
*Some controls don't work properly in certain sections.
*Overtells you what to do, always talking about you being able to do this or you could use this to do this, 24/7.
*Sometimes difficult to progress.
*Some characters own mechanics make it hard to progress (Example: Mr Fantastic's Glide is difficult to use and it is needed a few times).
*Feels very limited.

Overall a pretty alright game, don't get overhyped for it but it's enjoyable and has some great humour and cutscenes in it, If a friend wants to play it, I'd suggest giving it a go, i've played it for awhile now and suggest giving it a go if you're interested, it has it's upsides and downsides but overall it's a fun experience (after getting used to controls like H = Main Attack).

I loved the open world-ness alot. Its one of the best LEGO games I have ever played.

Deadpool

Campaign was great. Side missions are awesome. Roster is fun

From the last Lego game I played, the gameplay sure improved but the economy hasn't!

Lego Marvel Superheroes was my dream come true lego game. I always wished that there were a lego game about Lord of The Rings and a Marvel lego game after playing Lego Star Wars, because I really liked the relaxed and easy-to-access gameplay style. And then, multiple Lego games later, including Lord of The Rings, it is finally here. After multiple iterations, has the gameplay changed enough to justify the purchase?
Let's start with the controls. This is my first time playing a Lego game on a keyboard(I do not own a gamepad, sadface). The Lego franchise was definently made for controllers, which I definently noted playing this game. The default controls for moving and doing actions worked fine on a keyboard. My only problems with moving were with the flying in the free-roam section. The flyinf races were just plain annoying to do and caused lots of frustration. I accidentaly kept dropping out of the flying mode while trying to adjust my flight course. But the biggest problem with the controls were the camera controls. The default camera controls were really awkward to use, especially while fighting. I pretty much had to stop either moving or fighting to adjust my camera. This problem is resolved by using a controller, so it's not that big of a deal, but it's still not nice.
The gameplay is the same as in the previous Lego games. You control multiple characters do solve light puzzles and fight goons and villains. Which there is alot. I mean a lot, since there is a 100+ characters to play as. Many of the characters have special abilities to solve puzzles, such as Iron Mans rockets to blow up silver legos, Spider-Mans spider-sense to find hidden stuff and the list goes on. The game captures the feel of the characters through different animations and abilities, which is awesome. Mr. Fantastics animations are a definite plus. This game also includes the new Big-Figs, which include Hulk, Juggernaut, The Thing etc. They have their own things only they can do, which is indicated by green handles. They are a nice inclusion, and fit nicely to the regular sized figures.
The game ofcourse has a ton of collectibles, which are fun to collect. You could say it's addictive. Those are going to take most of your time, since the campaign isn't all that long if you turbo through that, like I did.
In the end, the game is lots of fun to play. I didn't notice any bugs or glitches, which I cannot say for the previous lego game, Lord of The Rings. Experienced a lot of bugs with that game, so it was nice to have a smooth experience with this game. The game doesn't require that much to run smoothly, so pretty much everyone can play this excellent game. It is just pure fun.
The game is really solid, and you should buy it, especially if you like Lego games, or the Marvel license.
PS. This is my first review ever, so apologies if there is any rambling or repetition, for I wrote off the top of my head. Thank you for reading :)

I originally got this game for my children. And then I shoved them aside and played through the game myself, cause I was hooked. I grew up loving both Legos and Marvel. This is a fantastic merger of both.

Pros:
- This game has a lighthearted storyline that doesn't take itself too seriously.
- The antics and quips made by the characters are humorous and satiristically appropriate.
- Kid appropriate means that I can sit down with my children for an hour or two to 'bond.'
- Marvel.

Neutral:
- Gameplay is typical of most lego games; get coins, find gold/red bricks, unlock characters.

Cons:
- It does get a bit repetative sometimes; gameplay and 'flavor' dialogue.
- There are a few bugs still in the game. Though they don't crop up all that often, it is annoying to have to quit a level simply because the bug prevented your advance.
- Flight controls were terrible (or I'm old, and just don't get it).
