LucasArts announces Lego Indiana Jones, first trailer
by Nick Chester on 07.27.2007 25 comments

 

At today's conference at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, LucasArts surprised everyone (and no one) by announced the Traveler's Tales developed Lego Indiana Jones: The Videogame. Set to hit consoles in the Summer of 2008, the game will follow and parody the film trilogy, much in the same vein of the popular Lego Star Wars titles.

 

Oh, the marriage of Legos with popular franchises -- how we can't get enough of you! This title is the latest in the Lego (insert nerdy franchise here) series, that also includes the recently announced Lego Batman title.

To get nerds lubed up for the game's release, Lego will also be releasing Indiana Jones playsets in January of 2008.

I am going to be ALL OVER THIS. As long as Traveler's Tales keeps making fun LEGO games I don't care how many franchises they decide to milk.

Oh, and they need to make a LEGO Mars Mission game. I saw a CG trailer for the Mars Mission toys at the beginning of the Transformers movie and I couldn't stop thinking how cool of a videogame it would make. DO IT!

I think that we may be entering "milking it" territory here.

This is how cute ideas get burnt out.

If we get Lego Pirates of the Carribian and Lego Spiderman next, I may poop with rage.

And then end up buying them anyway.

I wonder what they will put in place of Nazis...

I doubt there will b Lego Pirates or Spiderman games...considering Lego doesn't make sets of them

lego batman is not going to be as cool- the whole thing with lego star wars and lego indiana jones is that you are playing a cute parody of known characters in a classic storyline- batman doesn't have a classic storyline- just a known character so it won't be as enjoyable....
though if they continue with the lucas thing and do a lego howard the duck..... ummmm....yeah.....not a good idea

Fucking A. Never picked up LEGO Star Wars but I will get the Wii version when it's released, along with this and LEGO Batman.

Lego Star Wars was great, can't wait for this one. I bet the go ahead and use Nazis it is set in that time.

@Velirno Back to the Future would be a great next title! I would love to see the Libyans with the RPG in Lego form!

So what happened to the actual non-Lego Indiana Jones game? Maybe I've just missed it, but I have seen or heard exactly zilch about that game in almost a year.
