I played this on the orginal console and wasn't a big fan of it then. I really don't like how the camera is set up, it makes me feel dizzy and want to vomit after playing for two minutes. So no, I've never beat the game. My hubby bought this for me, but had more fun with it than I did.

Lego Batman is one of his favorite DS games! (Second only to New Super Mario Bros). He can play for hours if he is not stopped. It does have some "lego violence" and rated 10 and up, but my 7 year old is just fine with it. Some levels are difficult for him (e.g. penguin, and fairground), so he skips them and plays the others... more

I got this for my 10 year old. In the beginning he found it frustrating because it is not like the other Lego games which, while very fun, follow pretty much the same formula. This game has more of a learning curve but once my son got the hang of it he came to love it and plays it a ton. We have just about every Lego game available and this is defniitely in the top 3 of games he plays the most. Some... more

I've played Vice City, San Andreas, and IV, and this game took Vice City's place as my favorite title in the Grand Theft Auto series.
Graphically, I thoroughly enjoyed almost every piece of artwork in the game. The world is 3D and has a very cartoonish cell-shading that is not characteristic at all for GTA games on the bigger consoles. A few things were off-putting to me (especially the... more
