LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 Reviews
LEGO Marvel Superheroes 2 is a testament of how far TT Games has come in perfecting the LEGO formula.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a pure dose of fan service to Marvel enthusiasts, with its long list of characters, recognizable locations and its nods to storylines and in-jokes, but I feel that these games have lost their way over time. It isn't to say that I didn't enjoy my time with it, but I certainly won't be going back to it time and again, trying to achieve that 100% completion stat.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 has a faded and boring story, a huge amount of unnecessary and uninteresting characters, a lot of monotonous levels, bad camera, stupid companions and a broken cooperative mode. At the moment, this is the worst game in the superhero universe. And you just better skip it to avoid negative emotions.

That is also my only criticism: it is time for a really big change in the LEGO games because no matter how good they are, they will never continue to work out the same style. For anyone who has played a game of LEGO before, I would be able to review this game in one sentence: The same sheet and suit, but bigger and better than ever.
Even taking into account some of those negatives, Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a really good game to play.
Keeping to what makes the series so fun and losing some of the unnecessary filler, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is yet another great Lego game by TT Games offering exactly what you've come to expect from these developers.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is simply huge, with an engaging story, an incredibly rich roster of characters - including some obscure (mini)figures - and an enormous world to play with. That is, unless you've had enough of the usual Traveller's Tales formula, basically unaltered from all the previous LEGO games.

Apart from a small UI overhaul, a fragmented hub, and a batch of new and redesigned characters, this is more Lego, more Marvel, and more collecting. For better or worse.
Playing LEGO Marvel Superheroes 2 is a constant battle between being pulled in by TT Games' charm and being pushed away by the repetitive gameplay. For every excellent moment there are seemingly multiple forgettable ones, but if you can stomach the lows of the story, then there are some fun times to be had. Still, this middling effort shows that the LEGO series is in need of some revitalising changes.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a tried-and-true game for young kids everywhere who like the Marvel universe. There is a bit too much frustration with some parts of the game and the fighting can be very ho-hum for anyone out of diapers. That said, the humor, collection of heroes, length of the game, and overall quality makes this a no-brainer for kids everywhere. Just be ready to help 'em out.
The good news is that Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a faithful rendition of the classic Lego game formula. The bad news is that Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a faithful rendition of the classic Lego game formula. Personally, I'm feeling a bit tapped out after playing more than a decade's worth of Lego games without much change to the base formula. If you love Lego games or want to try them out for the first time, however, then Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 is one block party you might want to get into.
More of the same, that's what LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 offers. And franchise fans can only cheer for the biggest, most faithful and best LEGO game to date.

I wanted to love it and, for the most part, I did. In spite of the bugs, in spite of the pedestrian voice cast, and in spite of the missing X-Men characters there is a lot to enjoy in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2.
Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 combines two exciting properties into an uninspired package.
Despite having a gameplay like the other LEGO games, children will surely enjoy it. If you're not a fan of Marvel or have played any of the previous titles of the franchise, there is not much to see here.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 offers a fun experience for Marvel fans young and old. It's only problem comes from the fact that the LEGO video games formula is starting to show its age. Warner and TT Games should really start thinking about changing things up a bit.

It doesn't move far away from that classic Lego formula, but Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 is the series at its best; as accessible, fun and action-packed as ever, but absolutely crammed with Marvel goodness, exploring some of the strangest characters and settings in the legendary comic-books. There's a richness and detail here beyond even previous Lego super hero games, so watch out if you have serious Lego fans at home: this one will keep you and them busy ‘til the new year comes, and probably for longer.
The latest installment of the Lego Marvel series doesn't deviate too far from the franchise's formula, which means it probably won't draw new gamers into the fold. However, it checks all the right boxes and hits most of the necessary marks, giving fans exactly what they crave.
Bigger, bolder and brighter than ever, the LEGO formula remains unchanged in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2. While evolution isn't a building block for this latest entry, fan service, gorgeous visuals and an absurd amount of content certainly is.
Despite the often baffling and obstructing in-story puzzles, there is a ton of fun to be had here. By the end of the story campaign, my original frustrations were for the most part forgotten and even forgiven. Destroying items in my path like furniture, snowmen, and pretty much everything that wasn’t a building was amazingly entertaining.
