I swear, it’s just because I love these games.
Back when I was neck deep into Lego Dimensions, I happened to look at my trophy list on Playstation. Because I was using PSNProfiles, I could see what games I’ve started, which ones I’ve completed, and which ones were still in the void. I realized that, while I love Lego games, I abandoned every one of them on the PS3 as soon as I bought my PS4 all those years ago.
Which means I have some uncompleted games to complete.
The list is nowhere near as daunting as the Xbox One list was. It’s only six games. But there’s a reason I haven’t done them.
- Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues is one of those games that I haven’t every touched. I’ve been told that it can be a bit of a nightmare, which looks to be an understatement. This one will take the most time, I believe, due to a real lack of wanting to touch it.
- Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is another that I just never bothered to get, though I do own it now. Considering it’s from the old era, I know it is more unforgiving in many aspects, which is why I have avoided it. But, I think taking a trip down memory lane before Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga would be a good idea, as I know I’m not really going to want to touch this after that game arrives.
- Lego Pirates of the Caribbean. Well. I. Um. Okay, look, I’ve started the damn thing like five times, and every time I get to the back half of levels, get bored, and bail. I’m gonna need a reward system in place to get me to finish this one off. For those curious, this game contains the first four films, without a voice track, and major leaps from the source material, because death doesn’t exist in the Lego universe. Sometimes. Kinda.
- Lego Lord of the Rings. I’ve avoided this one. Honest. I am just not a Lord of the Rings fan. I have spent so many years of my life pretending that I didn’t read it, because I disliked it so much. But I want to at least have the platinum in it, so on the list it goes.
- Lego The Hobbit. I have a unique reason why I never finished this one! I found it to be laggy on PS3, compared to the PS4 version. I’ll play it with regret, but at least I have it down so that I can blast through the levels, though the post game is just frankly annoying.
- Lego Dimensions. Hush. I’m not playing to 100% on this one. Just getting all the trophies. I got the platinum early on in my Lego gaming days, which only a handful of the packs. I’m not about to go for 100% on the PS3, where the game runs slower and just seems to be a nightmare. I only have the ten level packs and the three story packs… which work out to be the size of a complete game. Whoops.
See? It’s not so bad. And my timeline is just 2021. December 31st. Nothing crazy, no real damage done.
Oh, and I am also adding Lego Dimensions on PS4, to 100%. I am only missing the three Story Packs and their associated worlds. It would only take a weekend to knock it out, when I get around to it.
So, that’s the new challenge.
Unless… I did ask for a Xbox 360 for Christmas. If that happens… this list just quadrupled in size. But that’s a nightmare for boxing day.
Until next time!
