DS #2332: Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (USA)

[funem]

I played the game, Its the same style as the Star Wars one, a few changes here and there like blowing into the mic and using the touch screen to dig/whip to swing ( or you can just use A instead ) and some nice ( but blocky ) cut scenes. Its an OK game in my book just could have tried to be a bit more different but its still a good play. Lego Batman looks like it will be the same again with different characters and environments but the same game mechanics.

OT : Jeezus, have people been taking stupid pills around here ? Looks people are trying to get themselves a ban, whats more they are mostly regulars who should know better..... knock it on the head before the whole place takes a downward spiral....

This is a good timewaster. I like this more than LEGO Star Wars because it has good cutscenes.

 

[helpme]

Stylus and mic elements are annoying.

WOW ! This grahpics are higly detailed (yeah, Ubisoft, Assassins Creed should have looked more like this...), this, Activisions and Renegade Kid's Engines seem to be the best the DS can offer 3rd Party wise (SE and N are other ligas ^^).

Happy to see that they improved their "videos" from the last horrible quality-wise LS2.

I'ts much fun, only too sad that they stopped putting in Singlecardmultiplayers, since it was much fun in LS1

I had picked up LEGO Star Wars 2 for the DS when it came out. It was glitched to fuck and back, but i played it the whole way through (unlocked 99% of it... there was 1% that was only unlockable ONCE in a play through, and i didn't know it... and wasn't going to sit through it all again

), then got LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, and started that a little bit.

I hit my first hiccup in the game last night that was remeniscient of the glitched LEGO Star Wars 2. In the first level, after you blow up the raft... do NOT just walk back onto the raft. I'd suggest jump. I "Walked" onto it, fell between the raft and the ground (dunno how that happened lol) and instead of reappearing on land or on the raft or somewhere i was safe, it kept spawning me under the raft, so i kept dying. Over and over. I watched my LEGO bits disappear 1.5k at a time. And i couldn't do anything. I just killed the game. Luckily i wasn't far in... but still. It was a minor let-down.

However i will keep playing it, because it IS a fun time.

That was just a heads up

Stylus and mic elements are annoying.

Most stylus bits can just be done with the action button A, like digging and whiping to swing.

This game even has activated antialiasing , at least on the characters. (look carefully).
This is awesome. Oh and IMHO it's better than Lego Star wars , mainly because it plays better.

 

[Popin]

Lego Star Wars is better, but I'm having fun with this nonetheless. Is anyone having trouble saving though?

 

[chbisio]

Please does anybody know how to save? i played until the raft, and since the ds is a casual console, i had to stop playing but the menu options dont show save, and only let me return to the house... there must be a save anywhere option on a game like this...

 

[cosmiccow]

you cannot save until after a chapter or when you're back at the house.

 

[chbisio]

That's a letdown, it was the same i guess in the star wars lego games, i can understand it for pc or home consoles, but for a portable console, this is unnaceptable.

 

[Arm73]

You can put your DS in standby anytime you know....
Anyway the game asks you to save the first time you finish a level, and then it switches to autosave, therefore anytime you finish a level it saves automatically.
Or you can return to Indy's office and save the game from there, but you cannot save in mid game.
I'm liking this game so far, very interesting and I like the puzzles.
Star wars was a littel too action oriented for me. And I always loved IJ movies.....

 

[Curley5959]

just close your ds until you feel like finishing it!! Thats what i do

 

[chbisio]

OK guys, thanks for the ideas, but i think there is a problem with the design of this game for portable consoles, the producers should have thought that a save-anywhere option is a MUST, there is no real motive to finish the level to be able to save, that's a bad idea...

 

[DjoeN]

If you have a flashcard withs save state, you could try if it works with lego indiana jones (Supercard DS One / CycloDS Evolution)

 

[joeyddr]

I cant get past the main screen, I select new game and i get a black screen. Using r4 with latest firmware.

Make sure your rom is clean and untrimmed. Also make sure you got a good release. Sometimes releases of roms get corrupted.
