This week's "Deals with Gold" has a little added bonus: a Warner Bros Publisher sale. Until Monday, September 19, you can pick up the most recent LEGO releases, including LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens, at a discounted price if you've got an Xbox Live Gold membership.
I don't know if you have heard *spoilers*, but Spider Man is now officially part of the wider Marvel's Avengers universe. That's great news for comic book and cinema lovers, but it is also good for owners of LEGO Marvel's Avengers, as they get free piece of DLC that contains 6 different versions of the Webbed Wonder.
The LEGO games, though somewhat simplistic, are often packed to the absolute brim with content to explore and unlock. They're sort of like if someone dumped every similarly themed LEGO set possible into your living room, except without all the harrowing foot injuries.
January should be a quiet month for gamers as we catch up on our holiday backlog, but it is nearly February and it is about time we had some fresh co-op action. Well head down to the shop right now and you can pick up the two player co-op LEGO Marvel's Avengers. To celebrate, there is a new trailer.
The more recent LEGO games have had large hub worlds that players can explore once they have unlocked enough of the game and LEGO Marvel's Avengers does not look like bucking the trend. TT Games are so proud of their new open world that they have even released a trailer highlighting the enormity of it.
Take the Venn Diagram of "People Who Like LEGO," and "People In A Fandom Of Anything At All" and there's probably a lot of overlap. Unfortunately for those in the "Marvel Comics Enthusiasts" realm also inhabiting the LEGO fanbase, LEGO Marvel's Avengers has been delayed until January 29th. The two player co-op game destined for almost every platform follows the two Avengers films: Marvel's The Avengers, and Avengers: Age of Ultron, with the latter released way back in May. Not bad, considering it took LEGO 27 years to make an Indiana Jones game.
At a San Diego Comic Con panel this past weekend (which included Stan Lee), six new characters were revealed for LEGO Marvel's Avengers. These six were America Chavez, supervillain Crossbones, Hulkbuster, Stan-buster, Sam Wilson as Captain America, and Iron Stan.
