More Thoughts From Me #43: We Don’t Need More Mario Games

I’m a huge fan of Mario. I love the games, especially the 2D ones, but I’m not sure why Nintendo is continuing the franchise. Yes, I know Mario is their mascot and they are not just going to suddenly give up on him, however I’m not sure what else can done with him at the moment.

LEGO Dimensions – Mission Impossible Level Pack

I always enjoy when LEGO Dimensions comes out with Level packs. Although we have seen that they aren't quite as big as Story Packs, they definitely beat out Team Packs and Fun Packs in overall value. The Mission Impossible Level Pack may seem small - only one character and two vehicles - but the included levels and story line make this one exceptional release for the popular franchise.

Regardless of what you think about wizards and witches, this long saga is a tale you don't really want to miss. When it was originally announced that this franchise would be coming to LEGO Dimensions, I was incredibly excited. After playing around in the level for a number of hours, I can safely say I was not disappointed.
