And there certainly have been a fair few of them made over the years, ranging from adventure to learning titles. However, ever since the fun but utterly wasted Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb from five years ago, Indy seems to have gone into hiding from the gaming world. That is, until now. Inevitably, with the cinematic release of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull just around the corner, some Indy games are on the way.
If you cast your mind back to 2005, two Star Wars games were released in conjunction with the final cinematic release. One was a movie tie-in and one was based off the popular children's toy, LEGO. On the back of this Indiana Jones release, it seems to be following the Star Wars trend, and we have one game tentatively titled Indiana Jones and another title named LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures. However, the former has been in development for a long time and is yet to find a solid release. The latter is due for release two weeks after the movie, and Activision recently gave us a chance to check out the latest from a LEGO and gaming joint venture.
As the title would imply, LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures covers the original trilogy of movies: Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Temple of Doom and The Last Crusade. The final game is said to be divided up into eighteen levels and the movies will cover six episodes each. However, in what was still a relatively early build, we only played through the first two levels. This included the famous opening scenes from Raiders of the Lost Ark, where Indy tries to stealthily replace an artifact with a stone, followed by the boulder chase."
Sure, they may be made for a child audience, but TT Games' Lego games are still incredibly fun for any age! Here's our ranking of the very best.
I dislike the LEGO games after the first one I played. They are just cut and paste with a new skin- My son liked them so we had a few over the years .Star Wars, Lord of the Rings , Batman but after the first it just felt like an extension of the first game on an endless loop
They are ok games, but every single one of them are basically the same. I enjoyed Lego Star Wars 1 and 2 and then the complete collection, but every other one after that has just been the same thing and it got a little dull.
had a lot more fun with Lego Marvel Superheroes than any other lego game.
Might be partly due to the fact there wasn't a lot else to play on my new PS4 when it came out
Carlos writes "Ah, Indi, you make your return, and whilst many people are likely to complain at the newest addition to the Backwards Compatible library - due mainly to the fact it isn’t one of the last remaining Call of Duty titles to arrive via the program - there will certainly be many others who will be excited by the addition."
Star Wars video games are great, but they aren’t the only place that your favorite Star Wars characters show up! You might be surprised to find out that you can play as Yoda, Darth Maul, Han Solo, Darth Vader, and Jango Fett in other video games.
I really liked using Vader and Starkiller in Soulcaliber. A full-blown Star Wars fighting game could potentially be fantastic.
Well. there is the good ol' game master of teras kasi:

I still have that game back in the closet. I liked it as a kid, but man it has some issues.
Secret Weapons over Normandy was new to me. That game must also be so old that it could run on a smart phone
