Recently Nintendo Life was fortunate enough to travel to TT Fusion's HQ in Wilmslow, England, to learn more about LEGO City Undercover, a high profile Wii U exclusive that arrives in March. During our day at the studio it was able to partake in an extensive hands-on session with the title, in order to gain a greater understanding of all that it has to offer.
LEGO City Undercover may feature an open world, but it’s not overly comparable to Grand Theft Auto. It turns out that this was intentional.
worst justification EVER! it's a LEGO game...you know, where your imagination is the limit, but they limited the game mechanic for as hard as they can. don't get me wrong, I like the game, Platinumed it on the PS4 BUT the game has so much potential but they also put so many restrictions into the game, I feel all the time I should be able to do something but the devs decided that I can't.
oh and yes...the draw distance SUCKS in this game even on PS4. I can understand if it's ground-up made for the new-gen but this is a Wii U port, the PS4 should have no problem running rounds around this game but the devs just didn't care. tons of collectibles but most of the time, hampered by the terrible draw distance and texture pop-ins. and not to forget constant crashing, glitches, collectibles not registering, and trophy glitch...very frustrating! I had to do a 2nd run just to Platinum this thing due to the story trophy glitch! My advice, if you are gonna play this game co-op, the drop-in drop-out nature of the game will make you lose you chance for story trophies if you're not there from start to finish. the way the story mission is not setup properly to chapters is also annoying as hell.
Where is the sequel for this game?! So many believe this is the best lego game yet there has been no follow up. Did LCU not sell well? Are the licensed games more profitable? What gives?
LEGO City Undercover was a pretty big deal when it first appeared on Wii U close to a decade ago. It was planned as one of the system’s first major games, and was even published by Nintendo.
Game is amazing. Are there any other Lego games like it? The other ones I played were nowhere nearly as good.
Two games are leaving Xbox Game Pass before the end of January: LEGO City Undercover and Just Cause 3. If you’re interested in playing them, now is your chance!
I've always thought the Lego games were all the same and kinda meh, but for some reason I'm looking forward to this lol.
This looks outstanding 200 vehicles wow that is all i'm saying.
Looks like a dream game,for me this with 200 vehicles and 290 different characters u can play as,and all the content and humour between this and Watchdogs WiiU i don't see GTA5 selling as big numbers as were used to,i'm not as hyped for GTA5 as i am Watchdogs and LegoCity.
