Lego Xbox Games

I’ve been a fan of the Lego style Xbox games. I currently own Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga, Lego Batman and Lego Indiana Jones. I’m waiting for prices to drop so I can get Lego Indiana Jones 2, and Lego Harry Potter to add to the collection. I also recently found out that they are releasing Lego Star Wars 3: The Clone Wars in March, 2011, and later on; Lego Pirates of the Caribbean which I’m looking forward to also.

I think the Lego games are great fun to play, I doesn’t require me putting much thought into my game and I can just play it and go along with it. I also think this style of game could branch out into some great movie trilogies and movie series.

I’d like to see Lego Grand Theft Auto, and also Lego James Bond and Lego Matrix. It could really be a hit. Maybe even Lego Jurassic Park? Take some of those epic style movie trilogies and turn them into Lego games for consoles.

I suppose I may think of more as I go along and think of more movies I like.

Get your Veyron

This morning I saw something I wanted to see for a long time in driving games, some actual supercars. Forza 3 for XBOX 360 will finally feature one of the worlds fastest road cars.

Forza Motorsport 3 developer Turn 10 Studios has decided to share some exclusive video footage with Autoblog (and our sister site Joystiq) that features one of our favorite cars: the Bugatti Veyron. When the game is released, you’ll be able to take the wheel of the world’s most expensive ‘bug’ without having to drop $1.6 million large. And of course, you’ll get to customize it all you like. Take that, Sang Bleu…

Said Turn 10 head Dan Greenawalt, “Including the Veyron allows our fans and community to experience one of the world’s rarest supercars at an unparalleled level of realism. Few people will ever get to see this car in person, let alone race or drive one, so the fact that we have it in Forza Motorsport 3 where it’s fully drivable, tunable, paintable and even damageable is a very exciting concept to us. We hope our community shares that passion and enthusiasm!”

Damaging the Veyron in the game wouldn’t be as bad as overcooking the real thing into the Armco, but we still recommend against it. However, having driven the thing twice, we can say that if you can get the actual Veyron to lay down rubber or drift through corners, then please give us a call – we have a trophy for you… Check out the video footage after the jump.
