After witnessing the huge success of the Lego Star Wars games, Warner Bros. is going to work with Lego to make a Lego Batman game. With Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment heading the publisher duties, TT Games is returning to develop the title, which is slated for a 2008 release on new generation consoles. Did you play and enjoy either of the Lego Star Wars games, camera issues aside? Looking past some gameplay issues, we were able to have fun and enjoy The Original Trilogy for what it as. So, do you think "Lego-izing" the Batman universe could see the same success as the Star Wars franchise did?[Via GameStooge]

There was also a Bionicle game on 360. No one bought it, but it's essentially the exact same game as Lego Star Wars, but with Bionicle parts. Same developer, same everything.
If you're craving legotastic gameplay, maybe you want to check it out.

i played the lego star wars and i loved them, one for loving star wars, and loving lego back in the day. now i love batman so it could be great. but i think the thing that made lego star wars so good was the sheer amount of characters you could be, but we'll see with this batman lego.

I'm such a comics geek.
but may interest in the game is going to be based on just how much batman stuff they include.
batmans world is just as big as the starwars world. so a generic gloss over wont do me.

I played the first one for Gamecube, I was obsessed with collecting all the "things." I definitely enjoyed all the different playable characters, puzzles and whatnot. Oh and I don't even really like star wars, so a lego Batman, X-men, fantastic four, or avengers, would rock. The unlockables are cool too, so I could see myself going for every achievement.

The magic of lego star wars was all the characters, all the vehicles, all the weapons, all the environments. And lightsabers, don't forget about lightsabers.
Batman has: Batman, Robin, the Batmobile and Gotham City. And no lightsabers
It'll be about as fun as a trip to Grandma's

Thunder3000, if that's all you think there is to the Batman universe, turn in your Geek Membership Card.
Obviously it's hard to top the SW in terms of content, but Batman has a full range of gadgets, vehicles and villains that should make it worthwhile. And these developers obviously "get" how to make a cool game.
