When this was released last year, the Wii U needed an exclusive that wasn't Mario. This was the exclusive that got the guts, but didn't get much glory, unfortunately. This game sold somewhat poorly, despite positive reception. This game broke the mold for LEGO games to come, and it does it very well.
Plot
The plot may seem simple, but has a lot to learn. You play as Chase McCain, a rookie cop, who is striving to take down Rex Fury, who recently escaped from prison, while helping many other people. That's the plot in a nutshell.
Presentation
The presentation is solid. The game looks great, and runs solidly. The city you're given to explore is huge!
Humor
I felt like this deserved its own segment. This game is really hilarious, filled to the brim with puns and one liners. I was laughing out loud at parts.
Gameplay
The gameplay is pretty solid! You're given missions and the open world to explore, and it works! My only nitpick with the game is the load times. Oh, boy, are they awful. They can last up to a minute. It was just annoying.
Verdict
If you can deal with load times, this might be perfect for you. It is the definitive LEGO game on Wii U, and a must- buy, even at $45.
Final Rating: 9/10
