I was wondering if you ever picked this up. If so, what did you think?
I was just checking the site to see if anyone ever reviewed it, but I guess not. I picked it up a couple weeks ago and just finished the main story mode. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised at the open world environment. You can literally walk from Hobbiton to Mount Doom, and everywhere in between (if you were so inclined). As other LEGO games are, there is a lot of fan service.
I realize that a lot of people on this site are down on the LEGO games, but I was wondering if anyone else had any thoughts on this one.
