Lego should make sports games

[jsteinhauer]

I actually quite enjoy Lego games now. Marvel was the first one I played. They are easy and relaxing and usually have a whole lot of stuff to find and do. But sports games, I think for most, need to be a good simulation to be fun. If the gameplay mechanics do not feel real (as real as sports with a Dualshock can) it won't hold anyone's attention. And as someone said, Nintendo already holds the market for cartoon sports.


Now, I think the Lego developers could create a tongue in cheek sports game, much as their other games are innocent lampoons, and make Lego World Series or Lego World Cup and make it more of a sports theme adventure rather than an actual sports simulator. While not a soccer (football) fan, I could envision a game adventuring around Brazil and the different venues as favorite players, managers and officials with exaggerated skillsets, battling jungle animals, criminal gangs, rowdy football fans. Pele could be a healer. LOL.
