LEGO Indiana Jones PC Demo released
- Thread starter Queasy
- Start date
I liked it, but the controls just didn't work well for me and were a little confusing to set up for both of the players you control.
FYI - This is the original adventures, not the Crystal Skull. (I prefer the originals anyway!)

Fucking sweet! Thanks a ton for the link, OP!
I can't wait till I get done with work tonight to play it
Judging by the 360 controller ad on the page I'm guessing they want you to use one. Not sure if it requires it or not, might say somewhere in the system reqs.

Finally, i've been waiting to try this game out. I thought I'd find Lego Star Wars too kiddy, but I actually enjoyed playing through it. Good casual game to play. They should remake the Star Wars and Indiana Jones desktop adventure games too.
No, I used the keyboard (no mouse). Maybe it would be better with my controller!

OK, I tried it again with the 360 controller and now it's ALOT more fun. I may have to buy the damn game now.
It lasts about 15-20 minutes, and has some great parts and some funny parts (a great Star Wars cameo...kind of), so I can imagine the whole game is a continuation of that!
I've passed on the Star Wars Lego games, now I may have to get those too...

Looks like Ill be buying this June 3. I bought my son the lego star wars games thinking I would have to help him play them bored out of my skull like those stupid spongebob games. Turns out I love em as much as he does. We have a blast playing those together. If you havent tried them I highly recommend that you do.
I'll be buying this game when it comes out, but I don't have a gamepad for the PC so it'll be for a console.
See, this is what all the game companies should be doing, releasing a demo before the game comes out.

Yeesh. I found it really, really hard to do the jumping bit over the spikes when the boulder was coming. I kept failing it until it magically went to a cutscene.
Also, I got a good 30 seconds of no sound and no motion, but lighting updates (so the game wasn't frozen) when it went to the idol cutscene.

I love the lego series of games. I'm definitely going to give this gamea go. Thanks! When does that lego batman come out?
It's supposed to come out in September of this year. It will be based off the animated series not the movies which is disappointing, but I'm sure it will still be fun.

Sweet. I actually thought the animated series was great. That's if you mean batman adventures.
It would be cool if they made a darkwing duck lego game

Yeah it would. DWD was one of my favorite shows when I was younger, and it would be perfectly suited to lego.

I played Lego Starwars without a pad just fine, well the controls were a bit awkward but I managed to get use to them.
I will be buying this one, hopefully it's not $50 bucks
LEGO Indiana Jones will be around $30.00
I bought LEGO Star Wars I and finished it this week. Not as good as the second one, but still amazingly fun!
