Lego Avengers Features Story Content From Other Marvel Movies

Hmmm... yeah, I think ill byte and get this one. Might as well have the complete LEGO game collection on Wii U.

I'll get it! LEGO Marvel was awesome. Nice to see a full game instead of LEGO Dimension packs.

Yeah I'll get this. Lego Marvel is probably my most played Wii U games even though I have SSB and SM3DW. Usually just play Wii games.

Is this open world?

I loved LEGO Marvel, so I'll get this, too, although I haven't watched the Winter Soldier, Dark World, or Age of Ultron yet.

@Mus1cLov3r That's funny, those are the 3 films I haven't seen yet either, saw Iron Man 3 on commercial TV last weekend by accident when I wasn't feeling well.

Will probably get this, but Jan 26 is weird, but underdrandable as they dont want to distract from those $700 worth of Lego D toy sales. Will wait for summer when it's $19.99.

Neither of the Hulk movies? Smart move.

Too bad Lego Dimensions will probably never get marvel content.

@rjejr Shows as a Friday January 29th release in the video. As I haven't picked up any of the Lego Dimensions it's hard to see how much content is saved for those games versus these games. Will pick this one up sometime after it releases and will likely get into Lego Dimensions sometime next year, providing Nintendo doesn't lure me in with more amiibo lines.

@Zach777 If it's anything like the last LEGO Marvel game it will have bounded levels and an open world. In the first game once you played through several bounded sections you could play in the open world of LEGO Manhattan. There you could hunt down and unlock other characters or follow the LEGO GPS bits to the next mission.

I still need to play and finish LEGO City Undercover.

@rjejr Twinsies!

@Nico07 Oh I know it's Jan 29, which means it will be $19.99 probably by the summer or Black Friday at the latest. And I think it's delayed b/c they want people to spend money buying Lego Dimension toys for Christmas, having this game on the market would just be a distraction. It is rally weird that it's launching just before DI: Marvel Battlegrounds though - see below. So many toys, so many games, so many Marvel everything.

@Rob_mc_1 - "Too bad Lego Dimensions will probably never get marvel content."

It's called Disney Infinity. (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Yeah, I'm definitely interested in this now. With 6 movies included, this ties Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (although in hindsight not so complete after all) as the one based on the most content.

I also heard we can play as Agent Coulson and a mech-driving Stan Lee. While highly doubtful as they've yet to appear in any of the movies, I really hope we can also play as Quake, Mockingbird, and Melinda May.

@Captain_Gonru Well if it's DLC the Wii U won't be getting it anyway - see Lego Batman 3.

We didn't watch CA 2 b/c we strongly disliked the first and we just haven't gotten around to Thor 2 yet. By the time the kids go to bed we're barely able to watch a 1 hour tv show, 2 hour movies are out. I really want to see Inception, the DVD has been sitting on my shelf since it came out, but it's like 3 hours. Maybe when the kids go to college.

So are the 6 movies: 2 Avengers, 2 Thor, 2 CA, no Hulk or Iron Man? It's really weird b/c the Ifinity Gautnlet story lines are some of my favorite in comic books, but I can't recall them being in the movies. I remember that 1 box powering the ship in CA but that's it. Oh, and Thanos at the end of Avengers of course, I squealed in the theater like a little school girl. Again I haven't seen 3 of the movies yet.

OK, did some googling - mind out of the gutter please - and the Cosmic Cube / Tesseract (I always associate Tesseract w/ Dune) is somehow the INfinity gems. Or something. I never did read those early Thanos stories.

Well we were planning on renting Avengers 2 from Redbox on Sunday, so don't go spoiling anything now, ya hear.

@Captain_Gonru So, what, no new FF movie tie-in?

As bad as FF 1 and 2 were, I was really looking forward to 3 (reboot doesn't count as 3.) Silver Surfer vs Galactus on the big screen, doesn't get any better than that. Or worse, probably, but I was still really looking forward to it.

I refuse to let my wonderful Infinity Gauntlet memories be tainted by the snorefest that was Captain America. GotG was superb.

And since we're on memory lane, Inhumans on Agents of Shield tonight. Black Bolt rules. Too bad I don't watch it.

@Captain_Gonru We're big on the DC tv shows, except Gotham, Arrow and Flash and waiting on Legends of Tomorrow, and we're waiting to see if it ever converges w/ the big screen stuff starting next summer. I think we're going to pass on Supergirl though.

"They've been very Nintendo about some of this."

No, then the show would only be available as an app, and you would have to download each episode while you were sitting inside a McDonalds. The utter silence is really growing old. I don't mind being a curmudgeon, I am what I am, but even I like to smile every once in awhile. E3 was so bad, after NWC, Sunday I thought was better than expected, but that was almost pre-E3, and it seems like since then only Iwata's passing and silence. Oh and the Starfox Zero delay. OK, US finally got the new 3DS, but I think that annoyed a bunch of people as well, both the delay and the bundling. Yoshi save us.

@Captain_Gonru I really liked Constantine, though I only perused the comic on occasion, that being canceled was a downer, all your comic book stuff seems fine to me, must be my so low perspective.

@Captain_Gonru "The character Constantine (played by the actor from the recent series) will be on Arrow an episode"

I just don't see how that's going to work. Though after ep 1 I can easily see it fitting in w/ the new main sorcerer villain, but they were such different shows. Oh well, 1 cameo can't hurt. I saw the guy from Tomorrow People on Agents of Shield, playing an Inhuman I guess. Those Tomorrow People actors sure do get around. Must be nice to be young and beautiful.
