For some reason the other day (other week?) I was thinking about the various Lego video game franchises out in the wild:
- Lego Star Wars (2 games)
- Lego Indiana Jones (2 games)
- Lego Batman and Robin
- Lego Harry Potter
These games are actually really fun, and I got to thinking about other franchises that might be good fits:
- Lego Pirates of the Caribbean
- Lego Matrix
- Lego Lord of the Rings
- Lego James Bond
- Lego Spider-Man
- Lego Back to the Future
- Lego Die Hard
(Even though I just came up with that last one while writing this, it makes me smile; something about “Yippee-ki-yay” and Lego minifigs is just too good to pass up.)
So I typed in “Lego video games” in Google and linked to Wikipedia’s List of Lego video games and lo and behold, not only is there a third Lego Star Wars coming out this year… but there actually is a Lego Pirates of the Caribbean coming out as well.
Huh.
And you know your son will want the new Star Wars one and probably the Pirates one too.
I agree, “Back to the Future” would be awesome!
I’m voting for Lego Pulp Fiction.
