LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

If you have 44 minutes of your time to devote to the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game, here is a video of the game presentation panel that took place at Eurogamer Expo 2013.

It's long, a little boring, but the images of the game that are presented in this video are worth the detour: We see in action some characters whose identity I leave you the pleasure of discovering.

You can skip the sequence of stupid questions / basic answers, no new info is revealed.

I remind you that the game is available for pre-order (DS, 3DS, WiiU, PS3, PS Vita, XBOX360, PS4 and XBOX One) at Amazon UK in a nice box with the exclusive Iron Patriot minifigure (Except PC version): Click here to choose your box.

Release scheduled for November 15, 2013.

LEGO Marvel Variant Covers

Every day has its share of Variant Covers surge on the various blogs or sites dedicated to the world of comics or the world of LEGO.

Rather than harass you with these images which ultimately do not concern us directly (These alternative versions of comics are not available at our usual bookstores), I have gathered all this for you in an album of my flickr gallery as well as on top Brick Heroes facebook page.

For those who are interested, I have just added the definitive covers of some comics scheduled for October and their version "early sketch"It's graphically very successful and it's always a pleasure to see some great designers lend themselves to the exercise of reproducing minifigs of superheroes.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes XBOX360 Achievements

I have already received a good fifty emails with one of the thumbnails above (the one from Rocket Racoon originally posted on EB).

To make it short and to simplify it, here is the full list of achievements from the XBOX360 version of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game from which the sticker in question was taken and assembled into a single image by yours truly. So we will all save time and we can enjoy this sunny Sunday ...

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes DLC

We've known for several months now that at least one additional character and feature pack will be available for the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game: EB Games is offering the above DLC for any pre-order.

I took the opportunity to add the visual below on which we discover from left to right three of the characters in question: Winter Soldier, Symbiote Spider-Man and Hawkeye Classic.

The image is truncated and we can assume from the colors of the slide on the far left that the Dark Phoenix image was at this location ...

In short, we have not finished discovering new playable characters in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, to unlock with your controller or with your wallet.

Other DLC packs are undoubtedly to be expected, if you come across an interesting info concerning the characters provided in DLC, and therefore inaccessible in the base game, do not hesitate to share them in the comments.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

I can't wait for this game to be released, so that we can play it, but also move on ...

So, on the menu: An article in McDo magazine (Accessible in pdf format here or on the image below), and an article published by Metro.co.uk in which Arthur Parsons, the Game Manager of the game, reveals that the number of characters present has increased significantly lately: There will be much more than the 100 characters initially planned.

One of the explanations put forward to justify the inflation suffered by the game in terms of superheroes of all kinds is the desire to keep the game at the heart of the Marvel news: By integrating in advance characters from the next Marvel licensed movies like Thor (2) : The Dark World (In theaters October 30, 2013) or Captain America (2): The Winter Soldier (Released in theaters April 2, 2014), the developers are ensuring that the game will remain "relevant" for the next 12 months.

Parsons also responds to the many bugs that usually dot LEGO games, and confirms having had more time and budget on LEGO Marvel Super Heroes than on previous games developed by TT Games for LEGO, this time bonus allowing for a bit of tweaking. more than usual the game and solve many bugs still present at this stage of development (camera positioning, artificial intelligence bugs, etc.). 

Metro.co.uk also publishes in its article a list, necessarily non-exhaustive, of the "confirmed" characters of the game:
