LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes targeting Wii U in spring
Later this Spring, TT Games and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will be putting out a Wii U version of last year's LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, which was something of a departure from the franchise with its full voice acting. Of course, potential buyers will want to know if this port makes good use of the system's GamePad. In short: yes, it does. There will be an "enhanced" interactive map and character-select ability on the GamePad, in addition to support for off-TV mode, and the option to have player two use the television to avoid screen sharing. The original versions have sold more than 3.4 million units worldwide, so it only seems natural that we'd get yet another. Did you know?

| 2:00 PM on 06.28.2012 Review: LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes |

LEGO games. Love 'em or hate 'em, they're not going anywhere. There's always some pop culture property out there that looks so ridiculous yet so FUN when done up in LEGO blocks. For the most part, the core gameplay has stayed the same for many of these titles; there has been little innovation or change of the tried-and-true formula. Until now. Mind you, this is both a good thing and a bad thing.more

Bravo, Warner Brothers.more
