LEGO The Hobbit
You'll definitely recognize the world you're running around in if you play the LEGO Lord of the Rings game. I can it's going to be a little different but the same even though I'm still currently running through the story line. I've had to stop a few times just to take a better look at the graphics in the game. The details are extremely good and you almost don't even realize how good they are just running through the game without paying attention to it. They've done a suburb job on the graphics in this game.
One thing I'm noticing is that when you break certain objects, you get items out of them and not just coins this time around. Running through the game you will hit spots where you have to use those items to build something. Without them, you can't do it. I'm only going to assume that when you're playing during a level that if you break all the objects you'll have what you need in the board at that time to do it. However, outside of that, you can trade items for other items which means this could be a daunting task to get something if you don't have the materials needed. You'll be doing some hunting around to say the least. So far I've been trying to collect all I could along the way and I haven't ran into but 1 place where I didn't have an item that someone wanted. The game told me I could only get it in a certain board and I wasn't even to that point in the game yet. I just ran through it so I think I picked up what I needed, just not sure if I got enough of it, which will require a replay of the board. Not like I won't be doing that anyway to 100% the game.
All the rest of the norm you're use to is back in the game. So finding and collecting everything is going to be a daunting task as always. I've finished all the rest up to the point, don't plan to stop now. Plus my kids always enjoy playing these games so we keep them.

Lego Lord of the Rings
They did an excellent job on this game. It covers the entire story and they hit the main points with all the cinematic parts. If you somehow haven't never watched Lord of the Rings, you will get the story pretty good.
They do have the talking like Lego Batman 2 in this one which I think is a great addition to game. The comedy for this one isn't a much compared to previous titles though. They do still have them but it just wasn't the full funny effect like I'm use to seeing.
You will run into some glitches in the game. There seems to be a few, especially looking at some online stuff. I actually fell into the water and even though I died, I lived and was under the water where I was stuck walking around and couldn't do anything. The biggest one that I was stuck on for 3 days, which I had hit before but it just never clicked until I did something to make me think of it, is when you pick up the scavenger items. There are 3 per board. You need to use someone from the fellowship of the ring to pick them up. If not and you pick one up with say gollum, you'll see him carrying it around like you got it but it never registers that you got it. If you can drop it and pick it up with another character from the fellowship, it will register and finally count. I had done this on mount doom and it was down to me getting that to get 4 achievements in the game from the 1 item I needed to finish off and get all the rest.
My kids are really enjoying playing this game as well. They go back and play all the lego games but I see them going back to play this one more and more like Lego Pirates of the Carribean and Indiana Jones. It's just fun to play.
So now that I've finished this game, which is the first for 2013 for me, I am back to 100% of the Lego games compelete again. Now I've got to wait to see what they put out next.
