LEGO World First Impressions
When LEGO Worlds arrived in the mail courtesy of Warner Bros. Entertainment Canada, I was pretty excited. The LEGO games have been a household staple since before my boys were even born; even my wife has enjoy the odd LEGO game from time to time - especially LEGO City Undercover on the Wii U! With no prior knowledge of LEGO World, as I had avoided the steam early access release, I quickly realized this isn't your typical LEGO game.

Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #45: Batman. Lego Batman
Over the holiday season, there was a little something called Black Friday. But even before Black Friday started, Nintendo had some cyber deals on the Wii U and 3DS eshops. My dad got Steamworld Heist, meanwhile, I downloaded Lego Batman 3 (it was only $9.99!). I had played the first Lego Batman and the second one too.

Read MoreLEGO Marvel Avengers Review
LEGO games continue to get pumped out and I always wait for that game that proves to be a dud. It hasn't happened yet, and while parts of LEGO Marvel Avengers are less than ideal, the entire package is still above par for games released in this generation. Fighting through a number of Marvel movies with nearly 200 characters to choose from, the fun never really stops in this latest LEGO adventure.
Read MoreLEGO Jurassic World Review
LEGO Jurassic World combines everything I liked about LEGO video games and largely removes the only thing I really hated: the combat. With the focus on combat gone, Travelers Tales has given more time to environmental destruction, helpful hints for those young LEGO fans, and more puzzles to complete. Oh yes, and dinosaurs.
