I purchased this as a download from the vita store...I was very excited about it coming out because I like the Lego series...
Usually I buy for the PS3... I did buy Lego Harry potter 1 for iPad and loved it BUT was greatly disappointed by Lego Harry Potter 2 for iPad - hence why I thought I'd try the vita version of this game...
Big mistake...it just feels like a port (conversion) from a PS3 game to a vita version - rather than being specifically made for the vita... The cut scenes are of poor quality and certainly do not take advantage of the OLED display...
The game play is ridiculously short... I understand it's a batman game but the title suggests other DC characters... It's more you get to play a little with superman but it's not until right at the end you can use some of the other characters... For the rest you have to play and save coins to unlock the others.
It attempts to use the rear touch pad but is not reliable
You also get to the end and rather than feeling "that was fun" or "that was new well spent"... It leaves you thinking "what!? That's it, where's the rest of the game...I could have spent less on the going to the cinema with friends to watch the new batman movie and had more fun and felt my money was better spent - at it would have lasted about the same amount of time...
Honestly, the reason why it's so bad is because the Lego series is trying to be put on many devices and the company cannot cope with producing the same quality games anymore
I would avoid, or at least wait for the price to go down to 15pounds, which is what it's worth
