Respect The Classics, Man!

[STUDZ]

Hey,

I was just thinking about the old LEGO games, before Star Wars, Batman, Indiana Jones, Etc..................

I'm talking about the CLASSICS!

You know, LEGO Island, Alpha Team, the ones not based on licensed themes.

These classics have a special place in my heart, just because they had an original story, and WEREN'T repetitive.

I think that LEGO Univers is bringing this trend back. I mean, the only non-licenced theme game in the last five years was LEGO Battles, and that failed... and I'm not talking about BIONICLE Heroes, either.

But still, I just loved the creativity of most of the old games. I mean sure; they weren't the best, but they were fun while they lasted.

Every now and then, I look back at those simple times when LEGO was churning out as much new games as themes...

And I think of two things:

1) That was one of the reasons that LEGO suffered financial loss in 2004.

2) I long for those old times (minus the loss)

Just my thought. Feel free to comment on what you think of those games.

Don't get me wrong i like the Classic/non-licensed Games (especaily LEGO Island Xtreme stunts and LEGO Universe) as much as the Next Diehard LEGO Maniac (like myself ) But I also like the newer licensed Games (except LEGO Indiana jones 1 that was Sappy and Boring compeared to LIJ 2 TAC). in conclusion i Love any ol' LEGO Game From Freeware to Subsciption there is always a place in my heart for any LEGO Game .

Thats all folks :P

I don't entirely want to bump a dead topic, bu oh well.

Should have listened to your gut on this one.  No where in the discernable universe is "oh well" a valid reason to do anything, least of which bumping a topic that had been dead for three years.  Do.  Not.  Do.  It.

I really like classic LEGO games, particularly LEGO Racers and LEGO Racers 2, and of course, LEGO Rock Raiders! Personally, I don't like the newer licenced games, like Indiana Jones. I just find them boring.
