Couldn't believe that they're doing this especially with Warner owning DC Comics.

Is it too much to say down the line LEGO Marvel/DC Crossover?

It's a surprise for sure, but a welcome one. Warner obviously sees the potential in the few Lego lines it hasn't used for games so far. Don't forget they worked on Lego Rock Band previously too, which was with MTV at the time.

LEGO Batman 2 must be the most played game in our house. Kids have unlocked almost everything in it.

After this I'm waiting for Lego Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to tie in with the new series they've just released in bricks.

LEGO City Undercover looks good too but I can't justify buying a WiiU just for that game.

They're quite easy and fun games to just pick up and play on occasion.

I've used them to introduce my girlfriend into gaming and now she's hooked.

from looking at the video it seems like they have a pretty good bit of software already setup which they must use for every game thus saving time in the graphics department and it then means the design and implementation is worked on heavily.
