Pretty cool, though I'm wondering if the person who wrote the one article
thought the Halo LEGO thing was actually serious, and not the April Fool's joke
that it clearly is.

I've been following the news on both of these games, and while LEGO Indy looks
to be not too different from LEGO Star Wars (except treasure chests instead of
minikit pods, and much more character-specific abilities), LEGO Batman made my
day when I found out that if you play the missions as villains, you really do
play the missions _as_villains_.  As in, they coded different versions of all
the regular missions where, instead of trying to stop the villains, you actually
play the villains as they're trying to commit whatever crime you previously
prevented as the Dynamic Duo.
