Lego To Bring, 'The Avengers' And 'Jurassic World' To The World Of Lego Video Games

The Avengers are about to be turned in to Lego form again for this falls Lego video game, 'Marvel's Avengers'! 
Jurassic World (2015) & Avengers: Age Of Ultron (2015)... If you haven't heard of them yet... Well let me set your mind at ease... Both movies are the highly anticipated sequels to some of Hollywood's biggest franchises (i,e. Jurassic World, is the latest sequel in the, 'Jurassic Park' series, and Avengers: 'Age Of Ultron', is the sequel to the blockbuster 2012 movie, 'The Avengers'!)

But we here at Hellinspace have come to discover something kind of interesting... It turns out that LEGO is planning on releasing both, 'Jurassic World', and, 'Marvel's Avengers' lego video games... later this year!

Jurassic World maybe coming to the big screen soon, but the LEGO video game version won't be far on it';s tail!
That's right folks, according to: Gamesradar.

Jurassic World will be a lego form video game that will allow the player to play in a lego version of, 'Jurassic World', as well as all of it's predecessor movies (also in lego form)!

As for, 'The Avengers' this game it looks like thus far will be a family friendly re-creation of the original movie in all of it's true awesomeness!

Jurassic World is set to be released on: PC, PS3, PS4, Wii U, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Nintendo 3DS, and PS Vita, some time in June, and Marvel's Avenger is set for release some time this fall!

Injustice: Gods Among Us (2013) - Video Game Review

Official Score = 3 Devils
Official Score = 3 Devils
Now I know that in both the Marvel & DC Universes, that  the concept of parallel has at least to some extent kind of become a standard bearer for some of the story lines, as a matter of fact, I have discovered that sometimes there are universe crossovers... As a matter of fact, there was a crossover that I saw in an episode of one of the Justice League cartoons that was extremely fun!

But for me, with a few exceptions, I have only recently begun diving in tot he world of the, 'Parallel Comic Book Crossover', but I have to say that I have found that I really like it!

A great example of this in video game format is: Injustice: Gods Among Us (2013)!

The box cover art for: Injustice: Gods Among Us.
Published by: Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for the: Playstation 3, Wii U, Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows, Playstation 4, Playstation Vita, iOS & Android, Injustice: Gods Among Us, tells the story of how:

In an alternate reality, the Joker destroys Metropolis with a nuclear weapon, killing millions of people, after tricking Superman into killing Lois Lane and their unborn son.  Because of this, Superman looses it, and along with the former, 'Justice League', forms a new repressive world order...

After being transported over to this world, members of the Justice League will have to fight to stop the Deadly Superman and the new world order that he has imposed, before the deadly Superman can essentially conquer everything!

Cyborg Vs. Wonder Woman... I mean how cool is that!
Now this game is done in a fun competitive fighting style, so you could end up fighting as one character, and fighting the alternate universe counterpart... Also, beside the story mode, you can actual play in the more standard competitive mode as well...

I am going to say that the graphics for this game are also a lot of fun, as well as the effects... The one thing that I did like, but also didn't, was the fact that there were far to many videos... Well made, but it cut in to my playing time, and frankly, after awhile it kind of got on my nerves!


Super Mario Bros 2 (1988) - Video Game Review

[caption id="attachment_557" align="alignright" width="307"]Official Score = 3 1/2 Devils Official Score = 3 1/2 Devils[/caption]

Ok, so I know that this particular review is not exactly, 'horror' or, 'sci-fi' but since enough of the series fluctuates with elements of, 'sci-fi' in it, I thought that doing a review for, 'Super Mario Bros 2' (1988) would be fun!

Originally developed by Nintnedo's R&D for the NES, this game, which would be re-released at least 5 different times all over the world for video game systems that besides the, 'NES' would also include: the, 'Game Boy Advance', 'Wii', '3DS' & 'Wii U', and which also utilized the same, 'platform' format that tells the story of how, 'Mario' and his team went to a new, 'dreamland' to stop a new big bad for carrying out his nefarious deeds!

Where as it is true that the same basic 2D, 'platform' format was used in the creation of this game, this game also was the first... and as far as I know, only Mario game of it's type to utilize a system that allowed you to play as different characters (besides just Mario or Luigi...)

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="618"] In, 'Super Mario Bros 2' (1988) one of the characters you got to play as is, 'Toad.'[/caption]

Another thing that this game did was that it introduced the concept of being able to not just pick things up in the game, but also to be able to pick things up and throw them at the enemy... This variation proved in my opinion to not only be a lot of fun, but with the expanded story line, I actually (and until I played this game for the first time, couldn't believe,) but all of this in my opinion had actually made this game a lot more entertaining then it's original game!

Now like most of the older games, I have to imagine that it is at least to some extent harder to find, but in the end, it is well worth trying out if you get the chance!
